Bug Description
Upstream:
https:/
What is expected to happen with Remmina in Vivid or Wily, is RDP to a Vivid server with xrdp, x11vnc, and using gnome-flashback (Metacity) is it shows the entire desktop successfully.
What happens instead is it is missing the lower ~5% on the right hand side (truncating part of the gnome-panel icons) and the bottom (where the windows are) as per the attached screenshot. This does not happen from Windows 8.1 RDC so this is a Remmina issue. Tried toggling Scaled Mode, no change.
Remmina Desktop Preference > Basic tab > Resolution Use client resolution > Color depth High color (16 bpp), High color (15 bpp), and 256 colors (8 bpp) > Advanced tab > Quality Best (slowest), Sound Off > Security Negotiate > all other configurations unchecked.
Vivid setup:
sudo apt-get -y install xrdp gnome-session-
Change the top part to the following:
