Blank desktop when logging in via xrdp
- by nitefrog
I am trying to access Ubuntu 11.10 using Remote Desktop from a Win 7 machine. I installed xrdp. I launch the Windows remote desktop client and login in. I then get prompted for the user name and password.
It then logs in, but all I see is the background, no menus, nothing. I have to kill remote desktop by closing it.
Even if I right click , nothing. Any ideas???
The only reason I even went down the RDP road was that VNC would not work either, even after I enabled desktop sharing. I am in a bind as I need to connect to Ubuntu via Windows. In version 8 Ubuntu this was not an issue and it just worked.
