Hello! I am having some extreme difficulty setting up RedHat V7.2 to accept a remote console login that behaves identically to a local console login. If I login to my machine remotely (via ssh) and then run startx on :0.0 (the local display), I cannot set run aumix (it returns with errors stating that it cannot access the audio device). HOWEVER, if I login locally and then run startx on :0.0 and THEN logout, I can immediately login remotely (via the same account that I just performed the local login with), run startx on :0.0 and access aumix of the machine that I am logged into. However, after some period of time, aumix (and the audio device) become inaccessible to me. Can one of you smart people please tell me how I can setup RedHat so that I can remotely login to a machine and obtain a remote console login that is identical to the standard RedHat local console login? Any assistance with this matter would be GREATLY appreciated!
