What Desktop environment is used by Unraid?


Recommended Posts

I have the asrock side panel kit, which uses eDP and mounts to the side panel, I use it to boot into GUI mode and display grafana. However everytime I want to change somthing I have to use a keyboard and mouse directly connected to the server. What desktop environment does Unraid GUI use? How can i write scripts to automate it maximizing the browser and opening specific tabs in something like kiosk mode?

 

Edit: After a bit of looking around I found it uses Fluxbox, which isn't a desktop environment, just a window manager for the X server.

 

Edit2: Incase anyone would like to do this in the future for whatever reason. The initial start of firefox can be found at /usr/share/fluxbox/startup simply edit it to whatever start up app you want or whatever firefox options you'd like.

Unraid gui is a firefox browser to the main webgui for the server. is not a desktop environment.
