Bug Description
I have Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn with all latest updates installed.
I use Terminal Server Client 0.148 (packages: tsclient 0.148-2ubuntu3, rdesktop 1.5.0-1ubuntu1).
I use tsclient to connect to a remote Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
When I log off from the server (Start -> Log Off Administrator) I get a Terminal Server Client Error dialog that reports that an error has ocured. It automatically reconnects in 30 seconds, unless you press the cancel button.
The same happens if you press "Cancel" on the Login Screen of the Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
As far as I can see there is not option to disable auto-connect.
To reproduce the problem try connecting to a Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
On the login screen press Cancel.
Alternatively, login and then log off.
I have this on Gutsy still, whatever Windows version or protocol, screen etc. As soon as you exit the client after a connection has been made the error is 100% repeatable.
Error reported currently is 'autoselected keyboard map en-gb' have seen others in forum with issues relating to screen resolution eg 16bit not 24bit etc.
When I manually select in the TS client the keyboard language code en-gb then the error goes.
I think this is a bug in the client as it is not picking up on the autoselected language, protocol, screen etc. It autoselects it appropriately but doesnt pass this through for some reason.
Certainly annoying and a continuing pain but I guess not 'critical' yet it would be nice if this was finally more polished in Hardy after Feisty and Gutsy having done me to distraction at times ;-)
