STARTX OVER SSH HOW TO
STARTX OVER SSH WINDOWS

Personally I don't find it useful to start lxsession, starting the X applications on the console is much easier for me. Starting this application on the console will give you the 'full GUI' you are looking for: lxsession One special X application is lxsession which will start the standard session manager of LXDE (at least on my Raspbian). 'X applications' refers not to X server (which should be started by startx) but applications like xclock, xeyes, and so forth. You should now be able to run X applications from the host on your In the last sentence of the documentation: The documentation you linked, states that you have to start X server on Windows, and it does not mention that you have to start X server on Linux. Your X applications will run on the Raspberry Pi but the application will draw onto Windows' Xming X server. You don't have to start the X server of your Raspberry Pi using startx.

STARTX OVER SSH WINDOWS

If you start Xming on your Windows computer, then you already have an X server running. What I want is my full, normal RasPi GUI running in a window on my remote Windows PC. In that case, how do I get to the desktop/GUI on Xming from Windows? Because, even with Xming running, and SSH enabled, I don't get anything but a normal console prompt. This answer says startx is unnecessary, because it starts the RasPi X server, and I am using the Xming server on Windows. Screenshot of what happens with Xming running, and I SSH in and call startx: I want to forward my desktop to my work PC, so that I can play with RasPi at lunch without physically plugging in the hardware. What am I missing? Do I need to open something to see the desktop? Or rather, it runs a bunch of messages which appear to say everything's working, but I get a cursor in my console window which acts like it's in a wait state. However, after I log in, and startx, I get. I've configured PuTTY to forward x11 and told it to place the desktop at localhost:0, according to the instructions here. I could probably figure something out right now for them.I've got SSH access, and I have Xming installed, along with Xming fonts. Those other two things are simpler, though.

STARTX OVER SSH HOW TO

So, I need to know how to run a completely normal SSH-free startx from SSH, how to get some kind of channel of data between a program in said X session and another computer (probably the one SSHing in), and whether connecting a Wii-mote through bluetoothctl before starting X would still give me full mouse cursor functionality once X is started (assuming a completely functional Wii-mote driver for X is installed).

I'd also like to be able to hook it up with a host computer's PD, maybe through stdout on the SSH session or something. That way, once I activate its 'Wii-mote mode' over SSH, I can disconnect from SSH and, without a monitor, plug it into a speaker and use my Wii-mote as an instrument. I then want said X server to be reading mouse data from my Wii-mote that I just connected through bluetoothctl, and automatically launch PD with a desired patch. I want do to that over SSH because I want my Pi to still be used for other things, so I don't want it to automatically start X every time it starts up. I want to have to SSH into it and activate a script that runs X on it the exact same way X would run if I had a monitor and keyboard plugged into the Pi directly. You can imagine how impossible this is to Google. So, I have to use xwiimote to have the Wii-mote emulate a mouse and then read cursor data. It's for a school project, so I have to use Pure Data, which I recently discovered has no real way to read Wii-mote input. I'm trying to turn a Raspberry Pi into the portable, automatic computer part of a Wii-mote digital theremin.
