Hi all,<br>
<br>
I sent this message to the x server mailing list as well because i<br>
figured out that the server doesn't start the desktop because of no<br>
screen being connected.<br>
so i am asking this on the wayland list as well.<br>
<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I am a blind person from austria.<br>
I am using the computer often without a screen.<br>
I figured out on many distros there are issues with the desktop without<br>
a screen.<br>
Seems the desktop isn't coming up when no screen is connected?<br>
I read in the arch wiki that this is caused by the screen auto config<br>
function of the server.<br>
can that be worked around?<br>
I wanted to install a system on a machine but the live dvd seems not to<br>
come up because of this.<br>
Is there something i can specify at boot? for example some parameters i<br>
can enter at the boot menu?<br>
<br>
For people using no screen this is pretty frustrating.<br>
<br>
greetings and thanks for helping,<br>
Simon<br>

In my opinion we need to get that working even without a screen.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
personally I can only offer a very short answer: it is up to each<br>
display server to support a case of no screens.<br>
<br>
In a Wayland-based desktop environment, it is literally up to the<br>
desktop environment project since they provide their own display<br>
servers, also known as Wayland compositors.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
