Hi,

I need for my remote control (screenconnect) access to my lxc container.
Screenconnect supports debian 9 via agent.

Sadly, screenconnect doesn't bring up a picture because I need to enable framebuffer inside LXC.
How can I achieve this without installing a desktop environment?
 
Without knowing what screenconnect is technically based on, I think you can't. Run it inside of KVM, LXC is too restricted with respect to framebuffer and x-window-system.

If you really need it and if it can run with X, just install x2go, vnc or do x forwarding, maybe this helps, but needs a more-or-less complete x environment but can be very slim with e.g. blackbox.

Hi there, I work for ConnectWise. You should be able to enable frame buffer in LXC and connect using Connectwise Control. You will be able to interact with console. Please feel free to DM if you have any other questions.
