Unable to set resolution for web client above 1920x1080 (ubuntu) in Nice DCV web client

0

Hi team

I used to be able to override the default 1920x1080 display by running a command such as sudo dcv set-display-layout --session session1 2560x1440+0+0 but that no longer seems to work.

I can see there are config settings that allow you to change the maximum resolution allowed but I haven't successfully managed to do so (I'm aware of the native client but I can't use it in this case)

As per this page, web-client-max-head-resolution config var doesn't seem to do anything?

Any help is appreciated

Cheers

I am able to get this working with web browser client connecting to Ubuntu 22.04 NICE DCV virtual session after editing /etc/dcv/dcv.conf and rebooting.

EC2 with NICE DCV created using CloudFormation template. Test with Intel (m6i.large) and Graviton(m4g.medium) instance types.

ubuntu@ip-172-31-30-156:~$ sudo cat /etc/dcv/dcv.conf | grep -B1 web-client-max-head-resolution
[display]
web-client-max-head-resolution=(3840,2160)

Web client was able to auto adjust resolution on my 4K display

In any case, I can manually set it as well

ubuntu@ip-172-31-30-156:~$ dcv list-sessions
Session: 'ubuntu' (owner:ubuntu type:virtual)
ubuntu@ip-172-31-30-156:~$ sudo dcv set-display-layout --session ubuntu 2560x1440+0+0

Edit:

Thanks for clarification; the above is for virtual session. You are using console (and not virtual) session on non-GPU instance.

As per Install XDummy driver for non-GPU instances, xorg.conf seems to limit resolution to 1920x1080 (virtual 1920 1080 ? ). Try changing the configuration.

    Identifier "DummyMonitor"

        virtual 1920 1080
    EndSubSection

I am not familiar with the xorg.conf syntax. You will need to test out your changes. Alternatively, consider using virtual session. The Ubuntu CloudFormation template from github may help

  • Yep I think it was this and perhaps getting confused between session types. I'll use virtual sessions from now on where there is no gpu. Also the scripts you provided helped my setup much better than the pdf document I've been trying to follow :)
