Hi
In rootfs for TX2, window manager is X11. But what is Desktop manager? Gnome,Xfce,Kde, … ?
And how do I delete or disable Desktop manager?
Hi,
It is the gdm3. You could use systemctl to disable gdm3.
Or if you are asking about what desktop we are using, it is gnome.
Thanks.
OK. And when I disable gdm3, what will happen for GNOME (as desktop environment)?
Is it will disable too or what should I do?
Windowing server : X.org
Desktop environment : GNOME
Display manager : gdm3
Window manager : Mutter (I am not sure)
When I disable Gnome and gdm3, I want to use HDMI and DSI output as video output. Is this possible or need some tricks?
Please respond in detail. Thanks
Hi,
Gnome needs the gdm3. When you disable gdm3, gnome desktop would be disabled too.

In such case, the display will lack of the help from the upper window manager so you need to use low level API like DRM or directly leverage the window by using gstreamer command with nvoverlaysink.
First, you need to enable the display manually by using commands
sudo -s
cd /sys/class/graphics/fbX
echo 0 >blank
You shall see the display power indicator is ON but blanked screen.
Second, run some samples which use DRM or nvoverlaysink. You could try MMAPI sample or read the gstreamer guide from our download center.
