## displayfd workaround
Because of the Raspberry Pi's limited power, getting an answer from `displayfd` might take more than the ten seconds specified as the standard timeout. In order to change this, you can start xpra like this:
```shell
xpra start --env=XPRA_DISPLAY_FD_TIMEOUT=30 ...
```

Alternatively, always specify a display when use the `xpra start` subcommand.
