    One more thing…
    I am now able to run Wayland on my Orange Pi and have nomachine working.
    I saw a post about OBS screen casting and a wayland fix which I tried.

    It suggested to make sure to have both ‘xdg-desktop-portal’ and ‘xdg-desktop-portal-gnome’ installed.

    So I did that and its now working fine!

    Is there source code available for nomachine? I’m guessing not as its commercial software but I would be curious to see if its possible to add hardware encode instead of the software encode. Maybe not as its some kid of lossless setting that might not be supported by HW?

    Following up on the previous message…Yes if I switch Ubuntu over to X11 it works great!!

    Thank you for providing this software free for Arm users! It is much appreciated.
    It’s been the only remote desktop software I’ve easily got to work on the Orange Pi 5.
    Cheers!

    Ok so after following the simpler instructions from your own website, instead of the Opi5 doc, it installed and seems to be working.
    I did get one error during the install,

    nawk: fatal: cannot open file `/usr/NX/etc/server.cfg’ for reading: No such file or directory

     

    but it still went ahead.
    I then installed a client on a Windows machine and it saw the Opi5 and connected to it! Hurrah! 🙂  I could see the mouse cursor moving on the Opi5 when I moved it on the PC.
    But the video stream was totally garbled and un-useable.

    I’m guessing that this is another of those Wayland problems?
    I shall try to run the Opi in X11 instead even if I’d really like to run Wayland. Just to see if that is actually the problem!

    But I guess this thread could be considered ‘solved’ 😀
    Cheers!

    I just want to mention that I did also run the actual install in the first process for the part that goes into  /usr
    Also I can’t see what file it claims to be not found.

    /usr/NX/bin/nxserver.bin   for example is present and is x-ecutable by all users.
