Can anyone point me in the direction of steps to set an Edge2 Pro up for headless VNC? After many hours, I’ve managed to get VNC working with Screens as a VNC client, but only when the Edge2 Pro is plugged into a monitor, which falls short of my intended set-up. Would really appreciate some advice. Thanks in advance.
Hello @JSLR_SBC
You can follow my steps to get headless RDP working on Edge2.
You need to install Allow Locked Remote Desktop - GNOME Shell Extensions
VNC does not allow this setup, only RDP will work.
You can install this extension by yourself by any method, I will prescribe a way using flatpak app.
$ sudo apt install flatpak
$ flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
$ flatpak install com.mattjakeman.ExtensionManager
With the extensions app installed, you can easily add the extension
With the extension installed, you may proceed with the rest of the setup:
Install xrdp
$ sudo apt install xrdp
Configure the remote desktop from settings
Now simply reboot your device and use the RDP client of your choice.
Regards.
Many thanks! Much appreciated.
