Public bug reported:

What is expected to happen with Remmina in Vivid, is RDP to a Vivid
server with xrdp, x11vnc, and using gnome-flashback (Metacity) is it
shows the entire desktop successfully.

What happens instead is it is missing the lower ~5% on the right hand
side (truncating part of the gnome-panel icons) and the bottom (where
the windows are) as per the attached screenshot. This does not happen
with Windows 8.1 RDC so this is a Remmina issue. Tried toggling Scaled
Mode, no change.

Remmina Desktop Preference > Basic tab > Resolution Use client
resolution > Color depth High color (16 bpp), High color (15 bpp), and
256 colors (8 bpp) > Advanced tab > Quality Best (slowest), Sound Off >
Security Negotiate > all other configurations unchecked.

sudo apt-get -y install xrdp gnome-session-flashback gnome-flashback x11vnc && sudo apt-get -y remove vnc4server && sudo nano /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini
