Should I have to set $DISPLAY manually with Xvfb plugin? Seems it picks one at random, but that selenium-grid isn't finding it. So I export DISPLAY in .profile and set it the same in the plugin. Restart Jenkins. No difference. So far this seems like a dead end. :-/ > > Just a thought as I didn't use it myself, in the end iirc it was only > a matter of driver problems or something like that ...
