[Bug 846407] Re: xrdp is not able to transmitt unity desktop correct - different clients

 

Hi

What is the preferred Ubuntu (Unity) (cross-platform) remote desktop connection? This was always one of the strongest features of UNIX-like operated machines...
Quite embarrassing, isn't it? 

>> AGREED .. every other update of Ubuntu it is getting worse. (working,
working unity-2d, working gnome-fall-back.. etc etc .. till.. . NOT-
WORKING in 14.04)

>> this is a +5 QUESTION !!

This bug is discussed since 2011...
>> Once more Agreed.. 

What is the BEST way of bringing this topic to the attention for the Ubuntu-Developers ?
Unity can be good but this missing RDP-connectivity .. makes it not usable in the enterprise.
So, No "RDP" connectivity means not usable to me,  and this also means I will roll-back to 12.04.

Anybody that got "freeRDP-server" working ?
