pulseaudio daemon won't start on headless server install
- by JPbuntu
Can't get the pulseaudio daemon to start on Ubuntu 11.1. I followed the instructions on the PulseAudio headdless server installation post
but when I run:
$pulseaudio -D
I get:
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed.
and in syslog:
pulseaudio[3042]: [pulseaudio] server-lookup.c: Unable to contact D-Bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11
Any suggestions? Thanks
