My problem is when I turn on the computer with the hdmi not connected, only the nvidia logo appears on the screen. The screen turns on when I connect the Hdmi cable without turning off the computer.

Check the thread and use the suggestion from other users please. Our official method cannot work with headless case. Need to use other VNC server.

There is a README-vnc.txt file on the L4T-README volume included in your system image. You can access the contents of that volume by mounting it from your developer kit. This readme has an instruction to write screen info to the xorg.conf.

Did you add the screen info to the xorg.conf as the L4T-README document tells you? Could you also share the xorg.0.log?

Of course I applied. I even added the final version to the attachments. I also added the xorg.0.log file to the attachments. Xorg.0.log (15.2 KB) xorg.conf (951 Bytes)

I have tried RealVnc right now and the same problem persists in this. I’ve been trying unofficial methods but haven’t found the solution yet. If I can find a solution I will update this topic. Please, if you can find a solution, I would be glad if you write. [duzenlenmis]
