Windows 7 Host, Ubuntu Lucid Guest, RDP Broken
Posted: 7. Apr 2010, 17:38
I'd appreciate help getting RDP working. I'm so frustratingly close!
What I've done:
Following advice from other threads I've generated xorg.conf and it includes this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "vboxvideo"
VendorName "InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH"
BoardName "VirtualBox Graphics Adapter"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
(First I tried putting this and mouse information in files in /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d which I suspect is the correct Lucid way to do it)
What works:
Windows RDP client connects, shows all text mode output during startup, shows desktop background.
Changing RDP display resolution changes VM's display size.
What's broken:
Everything else! Nothing from the desktop ever shows in RDP except the background.
Thank you in advance for any help!
