The Ubuntu screen is not coming as full-screen on DCV Client

0

Currently I am using Instance "i-08f882bdbad8abfb1". The AMI, I am using is "ami-0cab7155a229fac40". I am not able to see the Ubuntu screen as full screen on DCV client running in my local PC. I don't see any option also to stretch or make it full screen. I have attached the screenshot for the same. Guide me through it.

Enter image description here

The Enter full screen button is the 5th button from top left, besides Audio. Move your mouse over to see tooltip.

After creating a case in Support center. Following the below steps, the issue got resolved: 1.) Please ensure that you DCV client is up to date and using the latest version. Please first test again after installing latest version as this may resolve the issue. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/userguide/client-windows.html#client-windows-install Download link - https://d1uj6qtbmh3dt5.cloudfront.net/2024.0/Clients/nice-dcv-client-Release-2024.0-9431.msi

2.) Ensure the XDummy driver for non-GPU instances is installed on the instance. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-dummy https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/setting-up-installing-linux-prereq.html#linux-prereq-nongpu

3.) Configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the contents of the document below: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/setting-up-installing-linux-prereq.html#linux-prereq-nongpu I changed the "Virtual 4096 2160" resolution to "Virtual 1920 1080"

4.) Restart the X server for the changes to take effect. sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target sudo systemctl isolate graphical.target https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/setting-up-installing-linux-prereq.html#linux-prereq-nongpu

To make your NICE DCV session display in full screen on your client, you have several options depending on which DCV client you're using.

For the Windows client:

  1. Look for the "Full Screen" icon in the toolbar at the top of the window
  2. Click on it and select "Across all monitors" from the drop-down menu

For the macOS client:

  1. Go to the toolbar at the top of the window
  2. Choose "View" from the toolbar
  3. Select "Full Screen All Monitors" from the drop-down menu

For the Linux client:

  1. Go to the toolbar at the top of the window
  2. Click on the "Full Screen" icon

If you're using the web browser client:

  1. Look for the "Multiscreen" icon in the toolbar at the top of the window
  2. Click on it to enable full screen mode

If you're experiencing issues with screen resizing, you might want to check the DCV server configuration. You can modify the /etc/dcv/dcv.conf file on your Ubuntu instance to adjust display settings. For example, you can set specific display layouts using the dcv set-display-layout command after connecting to your instance.

If you're still having issues, you might need to check if your X Windows is properly configured, especially if you're using a GPU-enabled instance.
