Bug Description
This happens when connecting to ubuntu remotely from a mac, and invoking xfreerdp from within the remote session.
To reproduce
1. join hamachi vpn network, connect and go online
2. option 1: connect over ssh and launch xfreerdp:
$ ssh -C -c aes256-cbc -X <user>@
$ xfreerdp -u <user> -d <domain> -g 1678x972 -a 32 -x 0x00000180 -k 0x00000409 --plugin cliprdr <windows-hostname>
3. option 2: use vnc or x2go and launch xfreerdp
a1. if using vnc, connect over ssh and start a tightvnc session:
$ ssh -C -c aes256-cbc -X <user>@
$ tightvncserver -geometry 2048x1100
a2. if using x2go, connect over ssh and enable desktop sharing:
$ ssh -C -c aes256-cbc -X <user>@
$ pyhoca-cli --server <local-hostname> --list-desktops --user <user> --add-to-
$ pyhoca-cli --server <local-hostname> --share-desktop <user>@:1 --share-mode 1 --user <user> --add-to-
b. from a different machine over the WAN (the mac), connect to ubuntu over vnc or x2go
c. launch xfreerdp and attempt to type in MS Word, Notepad, Outlook, etc.:
xfreerdp -u <user> -d <domain> -g 1678x972 -a 32 -x 0x00000180 -k 0x00000409 --plugin cliprdr <windows-hostname>
Expected behavior
keyboard input
Actual behavior
no keyboard input
Notes
mouse works fine
xfreerdp works as expected when launched from the physical machine (versus over a remote vnc connection)
vpn required to punch through firewall, so unable to test without it
copy/paste with the mouse does work
keyboard input on the ssh virtual terminal does work
keyboard input within the vnc and x2go sessions does work
keyboard input for other x11 apps launched from the ssh -X session work, e.g. gedit
