Ubuntu crash after rdesktop start

[rakis]

Binary package hint: rdesktop

Hi All!

Ubuntu 8.04.2 + latest updates installed on Samsung Q70 laptop.

Gnome completely freeze (I think it crashed) after rdesktop starts. I can't find any related errors in system or Xorg log files.

Bit more information:
1. Connect to remote PC (Windows XP SP3 Eng) over SSH tunnnel - no crash.
2. Connect to remote PC (Windows XP SP3 Eng) over IPSEC tunnnel - crash.
3. Connect from Virtual Windows (VirtualBox 2.2) over IPSEC tunnel - crash.
4. Upgrade to 9.04 didn't help.

Regards, Roman

Is there no workaround to this problem?

I too have the same problem while accessing WinXP via any desktop client that uses RDP.
I am running karmic on a Thinkpad T61.

I can offer more details if sometime tells me what details are needed.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

In Ubuntu 14.04 LTS I am having the issue of the Unity Desktop crashing as a result of connecting to a Windows 2000 PC via RDP (any RDP viewer).
