I have once looked up some very basic way to grab some remotely running opensuse machine and see its real console pixels To my best knowledge it is not possible.
uhm, it is, I am doing it on my other server and other machines. All opensuse leap 42.2 when I tried it first time in my life. I wanted to access the actual desktop console session or whatever that :0 is called in unix terms. I dont wana create a virtual or invisble fresh session, but I wana see what is happening on the phyical machine and its graphics card.
So you claim that you can log in locally, using physical mouse/keyboard/display then connect over VNC and resume your work? I would be interested how you achieved it.
Its not about spying users or so as the other kind fellow wrote about. This is just some servers needing to attend to. Nobody is logged in. I suppose those programs, xserver an x11 and that logon menu of plasma or kde is all running as root id or whatever those services run in if that matters anything.
I still fail to see why you need to see output to local display. You can do everything over remote terminal or remote GUI and if you need to reboot server, you need connection to service processor (iLO, iDRAC, iRMC, whatever) anyway. And if you have connection to service processor, you already have your local console.
But anyhow, this works fine on some machines, but doesnt work at all on that machine I am having trouble with to make it run there :( TY.
