I encountered this behavior in my installation of ubuntu 10.04 on my server. I have virtualbox installed and loaded up several vms with ubuntu 10.04 and now 10.10. Installing xrdp using the ubuntu software center (as I did on the host after many unsuccessful attempts from the command line) works flawlessly on the vms but can't seem to get it to work on the host no matter how much I mess around with it. I've given up fixing it at this point because I believe if I were to wipe the host and start from scratch it would probably work.
I also can confirm the bug hanasaki reported above which I've also found in the ubuntu forums, namely that the "super" key is essentially "stuck" when remoting, thus causing the "d" key to enact the hotkey of "showing the desktop". I believe this merits a separate bug ticket, which I'm considering opening as I don't see one out there. -- xrdp package doesn't work out of box https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220005 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
