[Bug 1667894] [NEW] Remote desktop documenation not complete

 

Public bug reported:

The documentation on desktop sharing is incomplete. It describes how to
turn it on but not how to use it.

I have always been aware of this feature but I actually never tried to
use it until today. Expecting it to just work.

Turning sharing on is simple but it is completely unclear and
undocumented how one would connect to the shared desktop. Remmina is
default installed on a Ubuntu system but I don't think this is the
software to use for this feat.

Because the documentation is not complete I cannot use this feature. I
have to find another way like installing VNC server.
