I’m using the free NoMachine production, version 8.14.2, on an older Intel-based Mac Mini running MacOS Sequoia (15.0). When I try to connect from my Linux-based laptop, the connection succeeds, but I never actually see the screen – it is a blank, black screen. The mouse works, and if I look at the real, physical display on the Mac mini, the mouse movements move the cursor, keyboard input works, etc., but the display never shows up.
I’ve tried various combinations of different resolutions, disabling the client-side acceleration, and even another forum thread that suggested adding the following option to the node.cfg file:
DisplayServerExtraOptions “-nostreamgrab”
However, none of these items have worked – I simply cannot get the physical display to be mirrored correctly.
Any suggestions?
