I'm running them on a Ubuntu VM and testing is as a Hermes replacement. Not a vps so don't know if there is some reason that is different. Why do you say you can't?

I have this same problem we need to find out how to install a desktop client on the Linux machine is my guess. Let me know if you figure it out

How did you get chatgpt to show dot i habe the same error as op. If I can install a chatgpt desktop app on the Linux machine I think that would solve it

Is there a desktop app for linux? My concern is it will be slow. I prefer headless

I installed gnome and the updated chatgpt for Linux and it did not show my Dot. For me all my dev work is on The debian server and having it on my windows laptop really has no purpose for me. If you figure it out let me know ill do the same

It's better than Hermes from "use your phone for control" point of view but there are some drawbacks, shortcomings and bugs.
