hi, I'd like to run QLC+ on my ubuntu headless service with web access. SInce the server is not running X, I was wondering if it was possible to do this with out X port forwarding to another computer. It seems that the no gui option is limited to the RPI version of the QLC+.
Is it possible have the no gui option on x86 computer if I compile it from source?? or is there some reason that this will not work?
