Current cudagl version is hardcoded in the dockerfile. How about turning it into an ARG and enabling it in the GitHub workflow?

Will consider for the next update, thanks.

Will make adjustments together when the next version for selkies-gstreamer is out.

Note to self - additional backlogs for next update (MAKE SURE TO COMMIT ON EGL TOO):

• Support Ubuntu 22.04 (requires upstream container available)
• Comparison chart with x11docker, Sunshine, GOW, GamingAnywhere, cloud-morph and etc.
• Remove "Temporary fix for NVIDIA container repository"
• Add solutions to documentation for A Container with Centos 6.7 NVIDIA/nvidia-docker#25, nvidia-docker does not work with complex commands NVIDIA/nvidia-docker#26
• Make documentation clearer to understand
  (more to come)

The request has been done in NVIDIA/nvidia-docker#24.
However, due to the following issues, the following section in the Dockerfile was required and may present issues the next time the base image is updated. As this is relevant to this issue, I am keeping this issue open.

Note that the MATE Desktop is incompatible with Xorg in the default repositories combined with NVIDIA drivers >= 495, therefore the desktop environment was changed to Xfce.

Is it possible for having GNOME desktop? As it’s much optimized than xfce and ideal for many Ubuntu operations?

Is it possible for having GNOME desktop? As it’s much optimized than xfce and ideal for many Ubuntu operations?

1. Inefficient over remote access protocols.
2. It has a known issue where there is no EDID, the desktop environment scales to (I think) 1024x768 with many workarounds to make it work with an on-demand resolution.
3. More issues. https://github.com/TurboVNC/turbovnc/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=label%3A%22GNOME%203%22
   Therefore GNOME is not commonly used in containers. MATE has a separate issue related to Xorg written above.
   https://github.com/mviereck/x11docker#desktop-environments
   These are the list of tested DEs in a container, and Xfce has the best graphics and support out of all (anything with --init=systemd, --cap-add=, or is not based on Debian is unpractical to be used in Kubernetes).

Things will improve when we start using Wayland, however.

A lot of these issues have been addressed in the latest commits. Closing.
Ubuntu 22.04 will be supported after nvidia/cudagl image is released.
