That's not possible.
Then your X11 server was not killed. Maybe just a VT switch instead? The Xpra server does not, and should not be able to, interact with other X11 servers. You may want to try to switch to Xvfb instead of Xdummy and see if that resolves your issue, you can do that by editing |

This is potentially a security issue too as this gives the ability to kill a session and a whole bunch of processes that we have no business touching.. But whatever, they're very unlikely to ever fix this. When users complain of DPI issues on Debian or Ubuntu, I can just point them here and tell them to switch back to Can we close this ticket? |
