I would like to startx
on a remote machine, having the X
session on that remote machine's display/monitor.
Background:
My machines all run Arch linux, and they all dont use a graphical login manager (like GDM or KDM or such). I usually log into tty, and type in "startx
" to start my XFCE4 session.
While on work, I sometimes connect to my home-machine via VNC. This works nice.
Sometimes, I do stuff that requires my remote machine (at home) to reboot.
If I do so, there is no way to re-connect to the machine, as my VNC-connection needs a running X session (for x11vnc
in my case).
So, I need a procedure to somehow connect to my freshly rebooted remote machine (to TTY1) in order to type in username
, password
and "startx
".
Could someone please give a hint how to do that?
thx for your time, but if I disconnect from that ssh session, the X session of my remote machine will quit, too... I would like to start the user X session at the remote machine tty1, not forward it via ssh... – Produnis – 2015-01-19T17:38:15.593
