Bug Description

When connecting to another Ubuntu machine (via VNC), Remmina connects and I can control the remote machine, but my client displays just a black screen and I'm unable to see anything.

Not sure if this is relevant, but the remote box is actually a VirtualBox install of Ubuntu on the same machine.
