    Just installed evaluation of NoMachine Workstation on Ubuntu 16.04. LTS. Didn’t changed any configuration.

    Can’t create a virtual desktop from Windows 10.

    I can connect to physical display, or create a custom session. Creating a virtual desktop returns me to the “Recent connections” window.

    What desktop environment do you use? Is it a clean Ubuntu 16.04 with Unity or did you install GUI manually?

    It looks like you have wrong DefaultDesktopCommand key value in the /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg. Can you show output of the command: sudo grep DefaultDesktopCommand /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg?

    On Ubuntu installation with Unity line should look like this: DefaultDesktopCommand "/etc/X11/Xsession 'gnome-session --session=ubuntu'". Please take a look on this forum thread: https://forums.nomachine.com/topic/cannot-create-a-new-display-please-contact-your-system-administrator maybe it would help.

    It’s a clean Ubuntu 16.04 with Unity and in the node.cfg I have exactly the line you specified.

    I did install NVIDIA drivers and CUDA though.

    Thanks
