Linux with Roon can you get the full graphics?
Only Roon server runs on Linux, this is “headless” there is no direct user interface.
The GUI to control Roon is performed via a Roon Control application, this can be installed on a Windows PC, Apple Mac, iPad, iPhone or Android tablet.
Hope this helps.
You could also run Roon for Windows under WINE as a remote pointing to the RoonServer Core. That means you can start and stop Roon as you please while RoonServer hums away serving up music.
As a user of Roon and Linux, I would really appreciate this function as well. Also if possible lose the systemd dependence… I hate having to use my phone/tablet/emulated windows to use Roon.
Maybe this will be the year of Linux on the desktop…
