I've just installed Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop on an old laptop of mine and I wanted to set it up so I could remote into it from my windows desktop. I've installed XRDP, but when I attempt to login using sesman-x11rdp it logs in, then the window shuts down.
I've checked over the logs and here is what I get at the time of login:

Can anyone point me to the proper way to get this working with x11rdp?
Best Answer
Options /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini:
May be it will help you. Line 7, bpp(bit per pixel) must be 16, and sections with module libxup.so too. Clients must connect to XRDP server with options 16 bit per pixel.
Sorry my english is bad.
