Linux Mint 21 – No tray or windows buttons

[PhilR]

Hello,
I have a fresh installation of Linux Mint 21 and NoMachine for -x86_64, amd64 (8.14.2_1) and I am connecting from Ubuntu and the same version of NoMachine.

When the Mint machine is equipped with a display monitor, the connection runs fine but if I replace the monitor by a dummy key, I have no menu tray or windows buttons displayed.

As this Mint machine should be used as a local server, it should be working monitor-less.

Any idea to fix this?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, to make your computer headless, you could try killing X and using our own virtual framebuffer, see this article for more details, https://kb.nomachine.com/AR03P00973, point 1.
