Hello,

the new Bullseye version of xrdp is identical to the version in Bookworm. Thus
the underlying problem is probably more complex and I don't suspect that
something is wrong with xrdp itself but more likely with a configuration option
or related software packages which do something different than in Bookworm.

I have tried to reproduce the problem on Bullseye with Gnome 3 installed. The
problem here is that gnome-remote-desktop appears to interfere with xrdp, so
I'm not totally sure what is caused by Gnome and what might be a bug in xrdp.
Then I restarted the session with Gnome in Xorg mode and a remote connection to
the xrdp server succeeded. However I got a black background instead of the
normal wallpaper I have. Applications were shown correctly though. 

I definitely need more information about your setup or xrdp in general to debug
this issue. Possible reasons for the behavior may be:

1. TLS / connection problem ? Did you do "adduser xrdp ssl-cert" ? Maybe a new
TLS configuration option in 0.9.21.1?

2. graphic drivers ? I read that hardware accelerated drivers may cause such
problems. Maybe try to disable them and use software rendering only?
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE = true

Please also upload the following log files: 

/var/log/xrdp-sesman.log
/var/log/xrdp.log
~/.xsession-errors

and 

journalctl -S -2m 

or something similar may provide more information about error messages, etc.

~/.xorgxrdp.10.log seems to belong to xorgxrdp. The package is only recommended
but I wonder if the problem is potentially caused by it. xrdp is a build-
dependency which suggests it might need a rebuild? But on the other hand then
recommending the package would be wrong and it should be added to Depends.
Someone else would have stumbled upon this sooner I guess.

Regards,

Markus
