Jeanette, I run headless whenever I play, several GUI apps essential and running.  Xorg running, just screenless; it might be Wayland on the new box, haven't dug into it.  On some distros (and versions) it's tough to get to work, on some it's easy.  Do let me know if we should figure out a methodology for you.  Because I do it this way, I get to use default desktop distro bits for autostart and other items, ends up making everything easier to handle.  I couldn't work with minimal hardware this way, but I need a lot of power anyway, so I have it to spare, and I use it to make everything easier :-)

Thanks, Jonathan. It was GUI related. DecentSampler simply required me
to have a GUI running somewhere. Normally such applications fail with a
clear warning about not having found a graphics display. Now, I just
can't register at all with PianoBook. :) Perhaps I just scrap it. :)

Anyway, it's good I didn't have to resort to any other version, since I
couldn't have used them at all, including any VST plugin. :)

Best wishes and thanks again,

Jeanette
