Have a headless Ubuntu 19.10 server accessible over TeamViewer.The same issue persists when I am using with the monitor and I disconnect the monitor while TeamViewer is running.

Installing the package also disabled my monitor. Steps to reproduce: put nx into multiuser mode & reboot sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target ssh into nx & execute sudo startx & DISPLAY:0 sudo xhost + export DISPLAY:0. Only through TeamViewer, it was accessible. Also, when I installed the package, my mouse and keyboard stopped working.

When I installed 'xserver-xorg-video-dummy' package and tried setting Xorg configurations in 'etc' and 'usr' in their respective paths, I could no longer log in to Ubuntu by entering by username and password via TeamViewer on the Ubuntu login screen until I got rid of it via ssh.

It does connect, but I end up on a black screen.

Unable to connect to the server without a monitor connected.

I have tried fiddling with Xorg configurations, installing and uninstalling various things.

If you want your own driver to work, you will have to research what changes are needed and make your own xorg.I have been attempting to connect to my home server running Ubuntu 19.10 over TeamViewer from my other devices (Linux computers, Android phones or Windows computers) in vain. Note 2: This method is using the X11 dummy driver, so some graphical features may not be available.If you need to use a monitor, run sudo mv /etc/X11/nf /etc/X11/ and reboot the desktop size is set to 1400x1050 at 60Hz. Note: Following these steps will result in any connected monitors displaying a blank screen. hdmiforcehotplug1 Use HDMI mode even if no HDMI monitor is detected.Reboot the machine, and you should now be able to connect as expected.

RHEL / CentOS sudo yum install xorg-x11-drv-dummy.

Sudo cp /etc/X11/nf /etc/X11/ # this file may not exist so if there is an error, it can be ignored Sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-dummy

Install the X11 dummy driver, by running:.

This can also be specified using a configuration file: /root/.vnc/config.d/vncserver-x11

On the Expert tab, filter the list for CaptureMethod, and set the value to 1.

Select Options from the hamburger menu.

On the remote Linux computer, open the VNC Server dialog. I have got a Debian squeeze stable version (the minimal version, x86).

Change the VNC Server CaptureMethod parameter:.

Note: RealVNC have not tested this particular emulator and it is only provided as an example An example EDID emulator can be seen here

Connect an EDID emulator to the VNC Server computer.

Check that Linux is not set to a 'Battery Saver' power mode.

This is the entry from your log that indicates what Im talking about.

Change your Power settings on the Linux computer to never turn off the monitors/displays There are a couple different directions you could take remove (comment) the slot youve chosen, and see if X 1 chooses the card probed with an active port (connected to you monitor) comment the slot you have in your config, and declare the other one.

It's obsolete and isn't compatible with the Xorg version that you're using (1.12.1.902 - which is the sid/wheezy version) anyway.

If you are running VNC Server on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS or later, or CentOS/RHEL 8 or later, you need to disable Wayland First remove the radeonhd package (xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd).

Upgrade VNC Server to version 6.5.0, as this version contains some changes to try and automatically recover from a blank screen.

(EE) Fatal server error: (EE) no screens found (EE) (EE) Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at for help. Code: (II) KMS Kernel modesetting enabled. Xwindows does not seem to start and I get the error message. At this time, there are some known workarounds you can try below: Using the startx command it tells me it is using the conf file from /etc/X11/nf. It appears that in the above situations, Linux does not correctly report graphical updates to be captured by VNC Server. It should be DISPLAY:3 (or better: do not set it, startx will do it for you). The issue is most commonly seen when connecting to a computer with no monitors attached (headless), or a monitor using HDMI/DisplayPort is connected but powered off. In particular, DISPLAYlocalhost:3 will work only if X is listenning on TCP sockets. In some circumstances, your Linux remote computer will not display correctly in VNC Viewer.
