Launching VLC on a different display
Posted: 21 Apr 2014 19:45
I have a dev environment where I am working on from a command line and need to initialize programs via the command line. I am using vlc 2.0.8 with i915 hw acceleration enabled on an Ubuntu system.
I can launch VLC successfully with the command
but I get the error message
It works ok if I launch from within an Xsession terminal window itself.
Any suggestions on how to get this working?
