Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently there is only support for creating virtual displays with legacy intel driver.
Describe the solution you'd like
Using evdi kernel module it's possible to create a driver-independent virtual display.
I found it at https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/585078 (for me steps 3 and 4 were not needed, but also I couldn't make more than one virtual display).
The problems with this solution:
- it requires manual kernel module installation.
- If kernel module is loaded while Xorg is running, then Xorg freezes.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- intel driver is obsolete
- having screen resized with
xrandr --fb
is not good enough, because you can't for example make a window go "full screen" there. - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Extreme_Multihead#VNC says xorg dummy driver is not good for hot plugging monitors.
