<p>Dear Sirs,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> When starting <i>startx</i> from a terminal of my remote Ubuntu 18.04 server (using a Virtual Private Server (VPS)), I receive the above mentioned error message (<i>Fatal server error: no screens found</i>), followed by <i><br>
</i></p>
<p><i> (EE) Server terminated with error (1). Closing log file.</i><i><br>
</i><i> xinit: giving up</i><i><br>
</i><i> xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused</i><i><br>
</i><i> xinit: server error</i></p>
<p> Unfortunately, I cannot send you the <i>Xorg.1.log</i> file from the /var/log directory, as I also have a connection problem with the network (e.g., <i>Firefox</i>
will not start, or will start only very slowly and then crash). This problem seems
related to an unspecified display environment variable on the remote
machine. The command <i>echo $DISPLAY</i> doesn't give any result. Could both problems be linked?</p>
<p>I would very much appreciate your kindly helping resolving this issue.<br>
</p>
<p>Thank you and with my best regards in the meantime,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>André Linden<br>
