I have been attempting to connect to my home server running Ubuntu 19.10 over TeamViewer from my other devices (Linux computers, Android phones or Windows computers) in vain. I have tried fiddling with Xorg configurations, installing and uninstalling various things.

To summarise:

  • Unable to connect to the server without a monitor connected. It does connect, but I end up on a black screen.

  • When I installed xserver-xorg-video-dummy package and tried setting Xorg configurations in /etc and /usr in their respective paths, I could no longer log into Ubuntu by entering username and password via TeamViewer on the Ubuntu login screen, until I got rid of it via ssh.

    Also, when I installed the package, my mouse and keyboard stopped working. Only through TeamViewer, it was accessible. Installing the package also disabled my monitor.

  • The same issue persists when I am using with the monitor and I disconnect the monitor while TeamViewer is running.

What I am looking to do:

  • Have a headless Ubuntu 19.10 server accessible over TeamViewer.
  • Should be able to use when a monitor is also connected.
  • All hardware should be accessible.

Any help or suggestion would be welcome, even the ones I have already tried in case I did it wrong.
