User Profile no longer runs budgie-desktop session properly locally after xRDP login?

Budgie Desktop
3

I discovered the culprit…

sudo vi /home/rreaves2/.xsessionrc

export GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE=ubuntu
export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=ubuntu:GNOME
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntu:/etc/xdg

simply removing that file allows for me to log back in locally without issue.
sudo rm /home/rreaves2/.xsessionrc

Figured it out by copying my profile before and after I logged in with xrdp and the using diff -q against the 2 copies I had created.

The real cause of this issue is because I use this script I believe and that the startwm file was creating that xsessionrc. I have commented it out now.

/etc/xrdp/startwm.sh

#Improved Look n Feel Method
# cat <<EOF > ~/.xsessionrc
# export GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE=ubuntu
# export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=ubuntu:GNOME
# export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntu:/etc/xdg
# EOF

bottom of the file looks like this - I added budgie-desktop there.

if test -r /etc/profile; then
        . /etc/profile
fi

# test -x /etc/X11/Xsession && exec /etc/X11/Xsession
#exec /bin/sh /etc/X11/Xsession

exec budgie-desktop
