Bug Description

I have tried to acces a remote machine running the RDP server xrdp with a remmina client.

The connection establish with success, but the drawback is that the unity panel and dash is not show.

So, in consequence the is only a blank desktop background of the remote machine(xrdp server)transmitted and accessible.

Steps to reproduce:
1.Install xrdp on a remote machine.
2.Install remmina on a client machine
3.Access with remmina(rdp configuration)the remote machine.
4.See the connection establishing.
5.See the only a blank desktop background is transmitted(no panel , no dash)

Expected:

All unity desktop elements should be transmitted via RDP

Additional:

A check of the remote machine via VNC(vinagre - remmina settup) shows that xrdp usage is capable of crashing compiz sometimes.
