I am trying to connect my windows 10 computer with a ubuntu16.04 by a vnc by following this introduction.
I'm able to conect but what I see there is not very usefull, since I only see one folder opend where I can navigate and open files. But I'm not able to open a terminal nor anything else. Like you can see in the screenshot.
Does somebody knows how to realy get use of the vnc, like I'm really using it?

Hello sir I have lot of tasks and I'm trying to automate them but the problem is when I disconnect from RDP the Selenium IDE is not working I have tested everything on the whole internet like gpedit regedit everything and also just dont tell to put bat file or command to keep it connected to local user like chromedriver(selenium).
I have a remote headless server without a monitor attached with SSH access.
From what I found out the hard way, the default install does not support VNC (using vino) without a monitor attached.
Tried several things to get this working this without success.
I followed this guide on setting up x11vnc and lightdm: https://www.crazy-logic.co.uk/projects/computing/how-to-install-x11vnc-vnc-server-as-a-service-on-ubuntu-20-04-for-remote-access-or-screen-sharing
I then also tried to install xubuntu-desktop, which did not help.
The issue is:
VNC asks for password and connects. All good.
I see the session login window (with the panel at the top), everything looks ok. All good.

After login I only see a blank screen. Nothing responds. Right click on the desktop does not open a context menu. Not good.
screenshot2
Expected would be to see the desktop, panels, menus...etc.
How would one solve this? And what exactly is happening here. The session logs show everything is ok, no errors. But the computer is unresponsive on VNC, only the background is visible.
Note: I do not have physical access to this server. A solution via SSH would be best.
I am using vscode remote ssh and connect to my server (a node in a cluster) via ssh.
My local machine is Windows and my Host is ubuntu.
My vscode is being used to code in python.
I am trying for weeks to be able to run a python code and display images in the debug console like what we do in the normal terminal or in jupyter notebook, but I notice that I cannot display the image in the debug console at all.
here is a toy example
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
img = np.random.rand(300,200)
plt.imshow(img);plt.show()
basically when I try to do plt.imshow(img);plt.show() in the debug console I either get nothing or I get qt.qpa.screen: QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display localhost:0.0 Could not connect to any X display. .
I tried several methods such as using x11 extenson or adding x11 forwarding in the putty or add Display in the launch.json. However, none of them works.
I am coming to the conclusion that vscode remote ssh and debug console in python dont have that feature yet. But if you know a way to do it PLEASE let me know.
I hope that I am clear that displaying image in the normal situation is working and it is not working in the debug situation.
Please note that when I am doing the debug I dont want to display the image out side of the debug console.
Thanks
it seems you have done the first steps of my proposed solution.
open your settings in vscode with ctrl+, and search for terminal.integrated.env.linux. Click Edid settings.json
Update terminal.integrated.env.linux to this
"terminal.integrated.env.linux": {
"DISPLAY": "localhost:10.0",
}
Shut down vscode
Open ssh conncetion to server with ssh -X user#host
Open vscode and use remote development add-on as usually.
Now, this will work indefinitely, just open the x11-forwarding on the side every time. The downside, for which I am currently searching for solution is that you need to remove the "DISPLAY": "localhost:10.0" every time you wish to develop locally, which is not optimal.
Edit: Since you are apparently using windows, you need to configure putty with X11 forwarding and use xming or other x11-forwarding software in place of my step 4.
I have installed tightvncserver on a remote server and can run it. I use Remmina to access the server via vnc protocol and it works, my only problem is the desktop does not show. The screen that shows up is just blank
Please reference the picture. Don't mind the background just the window shown.I have no idea why its showing like this
I am using my host where i used to connect to the Remote machine where i want to fetch some data.
I am using pyautogui for press operation and typewrite() to enter some values.
The remote server is configured and application i want to operate will be always open when i connect to remote machine.
I am able to login through pyautogui.
after that when i write below code:
pyautogui.press('esc')
pyautogui.press('f1')
pyautogui.typewrite("T")
Its not typing T on the application that is opened on remote server.
Please suggest me some python way so that i can overcome from this issue.
Thanks
