Seryth Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I want to set up an Ubuntu VM to be my daily web browsing driver. No matter what I try I can not change the resolution. I have tried various remote control tools such as no machine or team viewer, but I can not get the resolution to change. Any ideas on where to start fixing this? I am using Ubuntu 16.04.4, but I am open to other options. Quote Link to comment
Auggie Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) From what I could gather from Googling and personal testing, there is no easy way to change the VNC resolution (no GPU-passthrough setup) when using UnRAID's VNC Remote. In addition to the glaring problem of the missing cursor with UnRAID's VNC Remote (exhibited with all popular browsers under both Windows and OS X), I ended up using Microsoft Remote Desktop which requires logging into Ubuntu using the Xorg display server (drop-down option available on the login screen). To restore a presentable GUI under Xorg, I installed "Tweak" which provides Wayland interface themes and icons. Edited April 12, 2018 by Auggie Quote Link to comment
