Thread: Disabling monitor detection for headless machines

-

i have several machines i've been trying working use render farm. however, been hitting wall when boot without monitor, won't start lxde. tried grub_cmdlime_linux_default="quiet splash nomodeset" in /etc/default/grub file, yielded no display @ all, not text login prompt.

i'm running lubuntu 12.10 x64 on several hp compaq dc7800fdd's c2d, 1gb ram , 80gb hd. works fine if boot display connected. it's rather unfeasible due space have monitor connected every 1 of them. each 1 needs xfde runniong can start blender render slave, , accessible vnc.

appreciated.

i think after getting major headache on 2 days , reading hours fixes didn't end working. i'm going install xp on these machines , bye linux altogether. whoever decided make won't work @ without monitor needs examine logic, , maybe research on how people use linux.

a week ago in premiere pro cs6 world. one day updated windows, next day few .mp4 video files opened in premiere pro, played fine well, except fact display has green (sometimes multicolour, solid green block) bars in lower third of screen. see screenshot below.   these same files open/display fine in after effects, photoshop , vlc- , quicktime players. i'd read fromyears ago windows updates causing this, removed 1 of therecent kb's no avail. i did install adobemediaencodertrial_64-6.0.3-mul-adobeupdate and dynamiclinkmediaserverretail-1.0.1-mul-adobeupdate and reverted quicktime 7.6 but nothing makes difference.   in end, formatted c:\, reinstalled windows 7 ultimate 64bit , downloaded/installed 260 updates , reinstalled cs6 (and aforementioned ame , dlms updates , qt7.6) it's still same problem.   also tried exporting (part of) 1 of these files, see if wasn't display problem: exported file same properties original has green bars.   what else can do?   thanks in advanc
