Access Linux devices without the end-user having to be present! 

Customers can begin testing Linux Unattended on Ubuntu devices using the X11 display server following the instructions below:

  1. Login to beta.logmeinrescue.com
  2. Navigate to the Access Wizard to create a Linux installer
  3. Give the installer a name ideally without spaces
  4. On the ubuntu device, open the downloads folder
  5. Right click the download folder path and select "open in terminal"
  6. Type the following command inserting the name of the installer
    • sudo ./nameofinstaller.sh
    • Note - if your installer file contains spaces you will need to put the installer name in quotes e.g: sudo ./"my installer.sh"
  7. The terminal will unpack the installer and you're ready to access from the live tech console
  8. Note - at this time only the X11 display server is supported If you attempt to connect to a device running Wayland you will see a blank screen
    • To change to X11 on Ubuntu 22.04, click the settings icon in the lower right of the login screen and select "Ubuntu onXorg" to launch Linux with the X11 display server
