I am trying to simulate casting my display to a miracast sink on linux. It seem like gnome-network-displays is a good option. I was having trouble getting it to work and was not sure if the fact I am running linux on a virtual machine on my windows device was the issue. It that an inherent problem?



download gnome network displays

You have to compile the gnome-network-displays application first as it is does not available in deb-package form for modern Ubuntu releases. One can use PKGBUILD from ArchLinux as prototype.

To compile and install use commands below:


hi, i want to connect my pc wirelessly to my tv so i used gnome network display but it show error my tv has intel display and the app shows my tv but nothing happen please help

In this development cycle, we plan to add screen casting to GNOME! This means you will be able to show the contents of your screen on network displays (e.g. Smart TVs, projectors, etc). To make sure we design and implement something that is actually useful for our users, we want to hear from you:






I looked at the GND source code emitting this error ( -network-displays/-/blob/master/src/nd-window.c), and found out it was failing to create a GST "factory" ximagesrc. I quickly checked that I was missing that GST part:


So far:

- i have connected to the projector with WiFi (this works)

- i have gnome network displays installed (which gives me "No usable wireless adapters ware found. Please verify that Wi-Fi is enabled and WiFi P2P operations are available in both NetworManager and wpa_supplicant")

I found some 2 year old tutorial on the net, but i'm stuck ...


strange, for this one the iw dev or phy doesn't display anything ... it's like no wifi device connected, even thou the WiFi network is working, is connected and I am posting this message from the wireless connection.


The funny thing is, that when I am connected to the projector via WiFi, I have a "network display" sound output, image below (chromium) - not that it works or anything, but something is happening ??? -




I found a wifi adapter that actually displays the P2P modes, but from what I understand, now I must recompile wpa_supplicant with P2P support enabled, which will only last till the next update or until something breaks due to the updates ...

I give up ... going to buy a DVI-to HDMI adapter and a longer HDMI cable, install it through the drywall, as it requires less time and only set up once.


gnome network displays still doesn't see anything and gives the message that P2P support must be enabled on both wpa supplicant and NetworkManager. 

So i searched the net on how to set up gnome network displays and there are quite a few tutorials out there (no more then a year old), I do not want

to advertise any of them. Each tutorial describes how to install gnome network displays from git, after which how to recompile wpa supplicant with P2P support enabled.

I do not urge you to try things, but if you are still interested, there is a strategy I would personally try to follow:

- try miraclecast;

- if it works, try to make it work together with networkmanager.


PS: I have 3 usb adapters, of which only one displays P2P operation (I have no idea what it is, the clone of something, it was about 0.65 usd from china, a noname, I guess it's blind luck), 

plus a raspberry pi, in which the wifi also supports this mode. I agree with you, unfortunately the WiFi HW support is awful currently. I will experiment some more ... sometime ...


Thank you for your bug report. wpa 2.10, which is the version included in the current Ubuntu serie, has been released in january where the patch you reference is from 2020, so yes it is included. Could you perhaps report the issue on gnome-n-d gitlab?


From your desktop, you can access files and directories or certain services on remote hosts or make your own files and directories available to other users in your network. openSUSE Leap offers the following ways of accessing and creating network shared resources.


You can connect to a network with wired and wireless connections. To view your network connection, check the icon in the right part of the main panel. If you click the icon, you can see more details in the menu. Click the connection name to see more details and access the settings.


Network browsing, be it SMB browsing for Windows shares or SLP browsing for remote services, relies heavily on the machine's ability to send broadcast messages to all clients in the network. These messages and the clients' replies to them enable your machine to detect any available shares or services.


For broadcasts to work effectively, your machine must be part of the same subnet as all other machines it is querying. If network browsing does not work on your machine or the detected shares and services do not meet your expectations, ensure that you are connected to the appropriate subnet.


To allow network browsing, your machine needs to keep several network ports open to send and receive network messages that provide details on the network and the availability of shares and services.


Networking workstations can be set up to share directories. Typically, files and directories are marked to allow users remote access. These are called network shares. If your system is configured to access network shares, you can use your file manager to access these shares and browse them just as easily as if they were located on your local machine. Your level of access to the shared directories (whether read-only or write access, as well) is dependent on the permissions granted to you by the owner of the shares.


To access network shares, open GNOME Files and click Browse Network from the Places pane. GNOME Files displays the servers and networks that you can access. Double-click a server or network to access its shares. You might be required to authenticate to the server by providing a user name and password. Common network shares are SFTP-accessible resources (SSH File Transfer Protocol) or Windows shares.


Being part of a corporate network and authenticating against a Windows Active Directory server, you can access corporate resources such as printers. GNOME allows you to configure printing from your Linux client to a Windows network printer.
