- Option
--xorg
runs from console without additional setup. - To run a second core Xorg server from within an already running X session, you have two possibilities:
- Run x11docker as root, or
- Edit or create file
/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config
and replace line:
allowed_users=console
with lines:
allowed_users=anybody
needs_root_rights=yes
On Debian and its derivates like Ubuntu and Mint you need to install package xserver-xorg-legacy
.
Depending on your hardware and system setup, you may not need line needs_root_rights=yes
.
Without this configuration you might get an error message like:
(EE) xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 8 (Permission denied)
