Has anyone had luck getting KDE Plasma 5.7 to work in a TurboVNC server? I
get an error that Plasma is unable to start because it cannot use OpenGL 2.
I tried disabling compositing and opengl in xstartup:
export KWIN_COMPOSE=N
export QT_XCB_FORCE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL=1
exec startkde; exit
I tried running startkde with vglrun (the system is configured and working
to use vglrun). I tried with -3dwm to vncserver, I tried to disable
compositing with -extension Composite. Nothing seems to convince Plasma to
stop searching for OpenGL, and for reasons I don't understand vglrun
doesn't seem to make it happy. This is unfortunate because earlier versions
of KDE always played nicely with VNC and didn't have a hard requirement on
opengl, unlike some other window managers.
I am running turbovnc v2.0.2, and an install of KDE Plasma 5.7 in Gentoo.
