Same Problem as stated by Wangzi in #34

the session=gnome-fallback workaroud does not work anymore with 13.10 +
and does not seem to come back in 14.04.

This xfce4 solution works, however slow and crappy, and not in a unity
desktop:

sudo apt-get install xfce4 xrdp
echo xfce4-session > ~/.xsession
sudo service xrdp restart

My questions:
What is the preferred Ubuntu (Unity) (cross-platform) remote desktop connection? This was always one of the strongest features of UNIX-like operated machines...
I'm still lost in Ubuntu's complexity. Can anyone out there give a summary how to get into the particular code of this? What happened to ubuntu-2d?

Quite embarrassing, isn't it? This bug is discussed since 2011... I just
tried upgrading because 12.04 told me at some point must-have 14.04. I
will roll back to 12.04 and stay with it until I'm convinced that an
upgrade pays off. Why do we sacrifice a *super, perfectly working*
feature like the *seamless* Windows 8/7/XP/android xrdp interface? I
thought 14.04 is supposed to be an *up*grade?
