Using 'xpra shadow' works well, but I can't get 'xpra > start-desktop' to work. It merely shows a black screen. xpra start-desktop on its own will only start an empty full-window session, you need to start a window manager or some other application to interact with, ie for testing: xpra start-desktop --start=xterm Then you can start a window manager or something else from the xterm
I'm sorry, I should have mentioned I used --start=gnome-session. > > Similarly, trying to just launch a window such as 'xpra start=gnome-terminal' > shows nothing.

Please create a ticket as per: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__xpra.org_trac_wiki_ReportingBugs&d=DwICAg&c=VYRDWu-sKuQrybEAJ2u-dYX_FK6X1lTrDf-PKXUa2P4&r=KUvBUvwZ3xYCa05A5NCXRUdX-yDQhrA_pjQ6in6O-IFVY81yykI4UK_bEOyPBhCw&m=hYC-Mg4CFDCDDFQQo4OChT_tnXsfnzENzlTSDAvpE1U&s=Sc2p7PKYs3hgrfUuQRTwYpEvhq85BkSMngsHoedlHNQ&e= Make sure to include "xpra info". And please try connecting from another client (ie: from the Ubuntu system itself) to figure out if the problem is server side or client side. OK I'll go ahead and do that. I also forgot to mention that I tried connecting from the Ubuntu localhost and it also just shows a black screen. So it would seem to indicate there's something up with the server.
