Hi,
According to The webpage https://www.xpra.org/trac/wiki/Xdummy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xvfb, my understanding is that, using "Xdummy with Xpra", we can run any program that produce graphical output on a computer that does not install any physical graphics card and physical screen, because the output of the program can be produced by Xdummy and transfered to my local computer through Xpra. It is true for OpenGL program in particular, assuming I have installed mesa in which a software simulation of OpenGL rasterization is implemented. Am I right? If I am, how can we run an OpenGL program, say, glxinfo or glmark2, on a remote machine that has no physical graphics card (so /dev/dri/card0 and /dev/fb0 do not exist as a result), e.g., the Amazon EC2 t2.micro instance running ubuntu 14.04, and transfer the output (the animation) back to my local computer? I can not grasp the idea of the example in the aforementioned Xdummy webpage, and searching the internet (for a couple of days already) did not gives me any useful hint. So could you please help me with this question? Thank you very much. _______________________________________________ shifter-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.devloop.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/shifter-users
