xrdp installed from the Natty Beta1 libraries only gives a black screen.

Binary package hint: xrdp

XRDP does not work out of the box in Natty. I have installed it using the ubuntu software center. When I try to connect to xrdp it only presents a black screen. The Vino vnc server works and I am able to control the desktop using the vnc client. The VNC server listens on port 5900. The xrdp black screen occurs on two of my systems a 64bit AMD dual core cpu and a Pentium IV hyper threaded cpu. The black screen is independent of the client used (Ubuntu, Windows). All clients do work with windows servers. On both system it worked using Ubuntu 10.10. The black screen should be easy reproducible installing xrdp from the Natty libraries. I have attached the xrdp and sesman ini files but they seem OK to me.

I am using xunbunt/xfce 11.04 on both machines but I saw the same happening on Ubuntu/Unity 11.04 before i dumped that one, because of the messed up support for the integrated Intel graphics controller..
