There are many topics about accessing a remote desktop via vnc. However, it seems that 18.04 is different. I have installed tightvncserver and the content of ~/.vnc/xstartup according to this topic is

#!/bin/sh

export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS

[ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
vncconfig -iconic &

gnome-panel &
gnome-settings-daemon &
metacity &
nautilus &
gnome-terminal &

As I connect, I see an incomplete desktop without any background and system menu. There is no terminal also. See the picture

enter image description here

Any idea?

I also suffered from this problem (with LXDE & lxpanel) long time ago. It causes by panel start before the X display on VNCserver.

try delay gnome-panel by create 'gnome-panel-delay' script on same /usr/bin with following

!/bin/sh

sleep 4 && gnome-panel

exec gnome-panel-delay instead of gnome-panel in ~/.vnc/xstartup or setting under ~/.config
