Cinnamon-session login using CLI

Post by zgi »

Hi All, I'm new here.

Is it possible to open/login to a user session trough CLI/SSH?
I would like to login to user session from remote computer. I'm using Linux Mint 20 Ulyana.

I tried below command and got an error.

cinnamon-session-cinnamon --display=:0
** (cinnamon-session:6497): WARNING **: 11:53:19.379: Can't open display: :0
