ASUSTOR Portal resolution (headless, x11vnc)

I've managed to get working x11vnc. Clean X gives me screen of size 1920x1080, but Asustor Portal switches it to 320x200.

I have no monitor to connect to my server to get screen modes.

Can anyone with working Asustor Portal paste here contents of /usr/local/AppCentral/asportal/etc/app_conf/res_tmp file ?

Hi,

Here after ... BUT this file is rebuild based on periodic Xorg request on EDID from screen (or not) if changed ...

Code: Select all

# cat /usr/local/AppCentral/asportal/etc/app_conf/res_tmp
Content-type: text/html

{ "force": false, "total": 36, "items": [ { "enabled": true, "res": "auto" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080i@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x720@59.94" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1024x768@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x960@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x720@50.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_720x480@59.94" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x1024@75.02" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_640x480@72.81" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x720@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_832x624@74.55" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_720x480@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_640x480@75.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080@59.94" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080@59.99" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1366x768@59.79" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_800x600@72.19" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_640x480@60.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1680x1050@59.88" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1152x864@75.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_640x480@59.94" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1024x768@75.03" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080i@59.94" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_720x400@70.08" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1280x1024@60.02" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_800x600@56.25" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080i@50.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_720x576@50.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_800x600@75.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1920x1080@50.00" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1024x768@70.07" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1440x900@59.90" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_800x600@60.32" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_640x480@66.67" }, { "enabled": false, "res": "std_1600x1200@60.00" } ], "success": true }
The only real 100% working solution for a headless NAS with x11vnc ... is using an HDMI emulator plug (with pass-through (better)) at back of the NAS, the cost is limited ... but the result is really good
ex. (not only) : https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B07C87 ... UTF8&psc=1
... you can choice resolution up to 4K
... or best run one time using your real screen (so EDID is cloned) ... after no need to keep screen connected ... but if you reconnect it (on the emulator) ... all works as expected

I used this all the time ... because I try to integrate some Xorg / Asportal application and test it (even I am at 600 km of my lab.) ... I don't have screen connected ... I use this for all my NAS with HDMI output (5)

Thx for help. I ordered such emulator.

And all of this because no support of surveillence for linux :-(

Anyway Asustor portal could have option to not change xserver resolution as a fallback, not crappy 320x200.
