It would also be great to do it programmatically using Xlib, but as far as I can tell it only provide methods for interacting with an existing display. It would be GREAT to be able to star a virtual display session like some some VNC solutions do, but I also can't find out how they do it.
Vnc pi startx software#
You can only have a single VNC server as all implementations of VNC use a common software stack. This also relies on X and if you enable it it disables the new manager and enables X.
Vnc pi startx install#
Following this tutorial, I put the following lines. There was no need to install VNC as Raspberry Pi OS includes Real VNC. I tried all the solutions on my working computer running Cinnamon and on my Raspberry, so it's not a problem of environment or GUI flavor. On my raspberry pi 2, I have the following commands in /etc/rc.local, to run at startup: startx exit 0. As I said, I'd like to have startx run as soon as I'm done logging in. Currently, my steps are turning on my Pi -> logging into (via GUI) -> enter the Home Screen -> open a terminal and run startx. Yes, I tried creating a different user to login at the other TTY. xinitrc If you connect a keyboard and monitor to your Pi now and execute startx you will. Thus, I was wondering if anyone knew how I can run startx as soon as my Pi boots into the Home Screen GUI. If you have already launched the desktop with startx. Yes, I'm using the correct - :1 argument. Set Up Remote Access with VNC ou can install a package called tightvncserver to allow remote.

I'm trying to find a way to create a a new X display, all the solutions I found so far lead to nowhere, I'm able to start a independent GUI session but they all keep reusing the same X display:0 Normally you would set the RPi to auto boot to desktop and then use either ssh (console only) or VNC (Desktop GUI) on the remote machine.

I'm pretty sure this is not the best place to have this conversation, but I can't find a specific forum for this kind of things, so if you know a place to make questions about X11 and xlib development, please let me know.
