You have been subscribed to a public bug: I am testing with the new Ubuntu 20.04, although I got similar problems with 18.04 in the past.
I have always been jealous of Microsoft Windows systems in this respect: enable an option with the mouse, and remote desktop works straight away with very few issues. On Linux, I have always had problems in this area. I tried installing xrdp, like some websites suggest. This throws up the infamous "Could not acquire name on session bus" error message, and causes problems all over the place. Further problem description and technical details are here: https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/wiki/Debian-dbus-user-session- package There is a similar issue recorded here, but that seems related to chrome remote desktop: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1769353 Is there an alternative to get remote desktop working with little pain? Hopefully without editing configuration files etc. I heard that there is something called X2Go, which is allegedly slow and buggy. ** Affects: xrdp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Remote desktop does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876067 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to xrdp in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
