Userland: Exporting Display to XSDL?

[Root-voidX]

I tried using export Display=:0 startlxde and switching to xsdl but it doesnt connect to run lxde. I have a feeling im doing something wrong. Anyone have any input?

[corbinlc]

I found that using DISPLAY=localhost:0 worked but not without localhost. Need to research what is expected here and why one would work and not the other.

[corbinlc]

Btw.. we have future plans to take care of launching into xsdl for you as another client option.

[Root-voidX]

Yes it seems using DISPLAY=localhost:0 worked. This is interesting! I can say this issue is closed as of now.

[corbinlc]

I am going to open this back up. So 1) people see it and 2) because I want to research what is happening here.

[Root-voidX]

Sounds good @corbinlc. I honestly think they having to specify localhost actually has to do with the fact that this is already being done from a ssh connection maybe?

Also have you figured out how to get video acceleration? Before using libgl1_mesa_swx11 for software rendering worked. I have installed the updated version libgl1_mesa_dev for stretch but i still cant get rendering?

[pantumaca]

Mmmm... i do not think so.

In termux and archlinux is the same; "localhost" is required to export the session (we talked about this in the original threath months ago).

[Root-voidX]

Nope in arch linux all i needed as D=:0 startlxde and it worked...

[pantumaca]

For me that never worked. I must use "localhost" or the export command fails.

In that case i have said nothing.

I would like to get back to the video acceleration issue. Using lxde with xsdl or VNC clients works really well on my Samsung S8 with Oreo and the DEX dock with the new app, that's really great! However, I guess the video acceleration issue is responsible for some applications not running properly, e.g. firefox. When I start firefox, I see a lot of errors like
Xlib: extension "XInputExtension" missing on display "localhost:1.0"
or
Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[C0][GFX1-]: Failed 2 buffer db=0 dw=0 for 0, 0, 812, 542 (t=4.40868) |[C61][GFX1-]
and pages cannot be rendered. Also, libreoffice is not starting, unfortunately I couldn't find the error messages yet ...
Probably we should open a separate issue for that one?

[pantumaca]

Libreoffice returns "no proc mounted". You can see that message launching it from terminal.

Which ever syntax is decided/needed, please be sure to add it to a guide, how-to, wiki, etc. :)

[Root-voidX]

So apparently, libgl1mesa6 package replaces libgl1-mesa-swx11, which was used in Debian Jessie to use render graphics correctly in x11. It installs without a hitch, but the system won't render any graphics like glxgears or Firefox. There is a fix for Firefox but that actually disabled any acceleration within Firefox (a temp fix).

Anyone have any idea on this?

[hkgoldenmra]

export DISPLAY=:0
requires full upper case of DISPLAY; display, Display, ... are not suitable.
127.0.0.1 or localhost is default, if IP is not assigned.

[Root-voidX]

@hkgoldenmra export command is not required.
'DISPLAY=:0 startlxde'
Works fine, I've only needed to specify localhost if accessing userland in another app via ssh.

[nakele]

Just my 2 cents here, before doing export DISPLAY and startlxde you need to have XServer XSDL already running

[djdisodo]

i'm using cyanogemmod 13 (android 6.0.x)
DISPLAY=:0 is just working fine
but xfce won't start with d-bus error

[FTWJAY]

I'm using Android 9 on a Google pixel 3 xl and I've tried the'DISPLAY=:0 startlxde' multiple ways and now I just get ' [1] 30201 '

[AwsomeGamer2019]

Nothing working

Samsung S8 Pie > Debian > xfce it works no problem on VNC

The XSDL android app is not working anymore on Pie apparently. That's not a problem with Userland app but rather XSDL android app problem. It;s another developer.
