Ubuntu14.04使用VNC解决gnome-session-is-accelerated: No composite

Ubuntu14.04目前仍是非常不稳定，使用VNC的时候，只有一个终端，检查日志以后，发现了如下错误：

 

 

$ cat /home/brett/.vnc/bt-desktop:1.log
……
gnome-session-is-accelerated: No composite extension.
gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 256
gnome-session-is-accelerated: No composite extension.
gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 256
 
** (process:6694): WARNING **: software acceleration check failed: Child process exited with code 1
 
** (gnome-session:6694): CRITICAL **: We failed, but the fail whale is dead. Sorry....
……

 

简单看了下，可能是gnome-session无法识别到OpenGL硬件加速导致的。该问题普遍存在于DELL大部分系列的服务器上。这个帖子提供了一种解决办法，但我试了下，貌似是无效的。

 

解决办法：

        $ sudo apt-get install gnome-panel gnome-settings-daemon metacity nautilus gnome-terminal  
         
        $ vim ~/.vnc/xstartup  #修改此文件,写入以下内容  
        #!/bin/sh  
         
        export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
        unset SESSION_MANAGER
        unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
           
        gnome-panel &
        gnome-settings-daemon &
        metacity &
        nautilus &
        gnome-terminal &

 

然后重新启动VNC终端即可

也可以通过安装KDE/XFCE来解决：

 

        $ sudo apt-get install gnome-core xfce4 firefox  
        $ vim ~/.vnc/xstartup  #修改此文件,写入以下内容  
        #!/bin/sh  
        unset SESSION_MANAGER  
        unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS  
        startxfce4 &  
        #gnome-session --session=gnome-flashback &  
         
        [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup  
        [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources  
        xsetroot -solid grey  
        vncconfig -iconic & 

 

============================================
后续补充：
Ubuntu14.04真是很差劲，使用VNC连接成功上桌面以后，S键、D键与Alt功能键相反了。
解决办法：

#必须在图形界面的终端里操作，不能在远程的终端里操作
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings panel-main-menu "['F1']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "['Tab']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings show-desktop "['d']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings maximize "['Up']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings unmaximize "['Down']"
#也可以运行dconf-editor在GUI界面中展开指定的项进行修改

VNC日志里出现如下错误：

解决办法：

2015.03.24，关于windows下无法连接Ubuntu 14.04 VNC的问题，在网上发现了一个解决办法（参考文章），但我试了下貌似不成功：

#必须在图形界面的终端里操作，不能在远程的终端里操作
sudo apt-get install dconf-tools
sudo dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/remote-access/require-encryption false

gsettings set org.gnome.Vino require-encryption false

更改背景图片：

#必须在图形界面的终端里操作，不能在远程的终端里操作
sudo dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/background/picture-uri file:///usr/share/backgrounds/Forever_by_Shady_S.jpg

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background draw-background false
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri file:///usr/share/backgrounds/Forever_by_Shady_S.jpg
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background draw-background true
