March 31, 20242 yr New user here, I built a media PC to run unraid and jellyfin in a container. PC will load into SLI but will not load the GUI. Starts to load it but stops on a flashing cursor. I am willing to use the SLI to troubleshoot and fix a problem, but the main driver behind using unraid was ease of use of the gui. I have basic familiarity with linux but I'm not an expert, and I have never used unraid before. Plz advise on how to proceed and investigate. PS - I can access the web UI, so it appears to be running. Still would love to be able to log in and see the gui on the actual PC for setup purposes.

March 31, 20242 yr Solution Try installing the Nvidia driver plugin for the GUI mode to work, but note that you can access the GUI from another computer.
March 31, 20242 yr Author Thanks for the tip, that seems to have worked. I didn't realize the web UI is largely the same as the live GUI. New user, so I didn't really know what to expect.
March 31, 20242 yr 36 minutes ago, gleamingthecube said: largely the same exactly the same. Generally, you only need the local GUI if your day-to-day computer is actually a VM running on the server or if you run into any network problem. Over the last 12 years, I've never once had a server set to use the local GUI.
