Can't start X headless

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I am trying desperately to find a working X config that would allow me
to leverage the intel driver without a monitor being plugged in
(Headless). We need to do some opengl rendering which are later saved
on the disk as images and the jobs are executed on servers which by
nature are headless.

For reference, the server has an intel HD 2000 IGPU and I am using
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with the latest intel driver (2.19.0).
I have tried everything I could think of without success.
Always end up with:

[3661641.967] (EE) No devices detected.
[3661641.967] Fatal server error: no screens found

I used to have an nvidia card and their driver had an option to bypass
any probing of the monitor in the case of headless usage. Ati has
something similar as well. From the list of options for the intel
driver, it does not look like it actually exist or it's not documented.

As anyone been able to run the intel driver without any monitor ?
I have attached both my xorg conf and the associated xorg.log

Thanks in advance for your help !
