xvfb - Python Module - simpe_3dviz - wxpython - gui

I suggest that you try

xproc = subprocess.Popen(['sudo',  'Xvfb', ':1'])

You may also consider to terminate the subprocess at some point.

And I did get further, as well it is a new day.

my current code further investigates the main issue: x display

Code:

from solid2 import *
from jupyterscad import view
from simple_3dviz import Mesh
from simple_3dviz.window import show
from simple_3dviz.utils import render
from subprocess import Popen
import os
os.environ['DISPLAY'] = ':1'
cmd = "sudo x11vnc  -rfbport 8087 -create -env FD_PROG=/usr/bin/fluxbox -env X11VNC_FINDDISPLAY_ALWAYS_FAILS=1 -env X11VNC_CREATE_GEOM=${1:-1024x768x16} -gone 'killall Xvfb' -bg -nopw"
xproc = Popen(cmd, shell=True)

d = cube(5) + sphere(5).right(5) - cylinder(r=2, h=6)
scad = (scad_render(d))
view(scad, outfile='/var/www/design.stl')
m = Mesh.from_file('/var/www/design.stl', color=(0.1,0.5,0.1))
show(m, camera_position=(-60., -160, 120), camera_target=(0., 0, 40), light=(-60, -160, 120))

Popen("TASKKILL /F /PID {pid} /T".format(pid=xproc.pid))

and this is my output:
