XRDP - Noise Screen

Mon Jul 13, 2015 12:47 pm

Hello,

i've tried to get remote access via windows 7 to rpi2 with ubuntu 14 (trusty) and a lubuntu GUI on it.

What i've done:
Just installed XRDP via 'sudo apt-get install xrdp'
So i didn't proceed any configurations.

The problem is:
When i try to connect via RemoteDesktopConnection to my pi, i get the login interface.
But then, afte rlogin and correct data input, i get this screen below:
rdp.png
screenshot after login
rdp.png (38.93 KiB) Viewed 437 times
And there it stucks forever.
So there doesn't appear any GUI!

What ist this?
How do i get the real GUI?

Greatings
Shiva

P.S.: Sorry for the bad english!

Edit1:

Here are some preferences:

- using Raspberry Pi 2 B
- installed lubuntu via apt-get

Ok guys,

i mentioned how to get rid of this problem!
I had to create a missing .xsession-File with this command below:

Code: Select all

echo lxsession -s Lubuntu -e LXDE > ~/.xsession
It created one for me.
After a reboot i could finaly connect into my Desktop via RemoteDesktopConnection on to my pi2!

Sorry for this thread, hope it will find some people who also have the same problem, so it dosn't get meaningless here! :)

Maybe someone could tell me, why i had to manually add this file?
And what it is for and maybe what the command above does?

Sincerly
Shiva
