I have 1 PC (Intel core i3-8100/16GB) and 1 laptop (core i5), installed Ubuntu Budgie 19.10 on the laptop and upgraded the PC from 19.04 to 19.10. The IP address of the PC is 192.168.88.10. The PC had a clean 19.04 install. I did not mess with Firewall as I am really still a noob. Both are on the …

Sorry for the late reply. I just picked this up again because I would love to sit in the sun with my laptop while accessing my shared desktop PC screen. I installed tightvncserver via apt-get and ran the command tightvncserver which asked me to set a password. Done. Now I open the log file and the…

The driver for the printer needs to be installed on all machines. I know, I have this problem a lot. I have a Brother MFC-J491DW. The biggest surprise I’ve had was to find the driver included in OpenMandriva Lx 4.1. Otherwise I’ve had to go through and install it each time.

About vnc … Since I don’t like vnc at all (and, mostly, often it happens to me to be in need of connecting from home to my job pc - via vpn tunnel - and I’m no more alone in my office, so I’d like my colleague couldn’t see my monitor moving as if I were on my chair) I’ve installed xrdp on every pc,…

I’ll try, but should it not work out of the box? If vncserver needs to be installed, why have those options in the Settings? I know there are plenty of other methods for remote desktop and filesharing, I just wanted to figure out how to successfully use the built in options.

Ah that makes sense :slight_smile: thanks I will try.

It works out of the box. I forgot I had installed AlgoVPN. I strongly recommend anyone who would like a Wireguard VPN based ‘roadwarrior’ Ubuntu server to not use AlgoVPN. It completely messes up IPtables and other system settings and there is no way to reverse it. I started fresh and the integrate…

[image] puffettacicciottella: xrdp Are you sure those are all required steps for Budgie? I did that, but when I try to connect, after accepting an SSL message, I get a flickering window, constantly showing this, it doesn’t count the attempts and it does not connect. Tested within my LAN, fro…

Does anyone know how to get xrdp working between UB machines?

Unfortunately, it still does not seem to work. Enabling Screen Sharing via Settings does not allow me to share screen… Installing tightvncserver and running vncserver helps, I can now connect. But this shows a blank desktop environment, which is NOT screen sharing. It’s probably just the same with…
