Headless SCB's Slow graphics when no HDMI

[stash_old]

Hi,

FYI

Some of you may experience slow graphics when using a headless SCB that runs VNCSERVER or XRDP Server on Linux machines (RPI is ok). Especially it seems Intel based SCB's.

There are many suggests to get this working (none of which worked for me) but a Dummy HDMI plug works a treat. It fools the Grpahics chip into thinking a HDMI monitor/TV is connected and so allows full normal graphics at a decent speed. 

Only used it for a short while but seems to work 100% (famous last words) - you can make your own :-)

no monitor (Headless LOL!) connected to a small computer board ,such as a RPI or in my case AAeon Core and accessed remotely via RDP or VNC . For example https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/vnc/

?
