            Yeah. I did install from a Net-install disc. I'll try again with the full 1.8gb image. I just took whatever the default options were when installing.

              Yeah, but some systems don't work on a login page.

                  and leave it logged in?

                    Yeah. I actually get a meshagent.log file on the client. It shows me a stack trace.

                    @Ylian -- I can post it on Github if you like.

                    This is a Fedora 29 fresh install in VirtualBox without installing the guest additions.

                    I used this ISO File: https://fedora.mirror.constant.com/fedora/linux/releases/29/Workstation/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-29-1.2.iso

                    All options were left at default settings.

                    Specs: 1CPU, 3GB RAM, 32GB HDD.

                      You might have to force Xorg to the default and not Wayland. That's the only reason why Ubuntu 18.10 made it on the list that works because it defaults to Xorg.

                        Yeah, I was aware of Fedora 29 defaulting to Wayland. I wonder if running the Cinnamon Desktop makes it default to X?

                          Cinnamon doesn't support Wayland. It can either do software or hardware rendering.

                              You can add Mint 18.3 to the list of working Distros. Mate is the desktop environment here.

                                    I have systems that do not have it.

                                            Not the normal shell, but yeah.

                                            No real point, but you never know when it might be an emergency way in..
                                            Kind of risky because it is logged in though.
