Pbaumann Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Hi, I installed xrdp with armbian-config. Now I'm able to login with rdp client, but I'm directed to an empty desktop. No bars/menue or similar, just empty no chance of doing something useful. What's wrong? Best wishes Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We fix some but we can't catch them all. Cubox is the only Bionic build where we forgot to add a label "Bionic is testing" What to do? Search around for generic Ubuntu fix for this or switch to Debian Stretch (where this function works normally) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Pbaumann Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Thanks for fast response and for clarifying this. For my use case it will be the best to stay with xenial. --- Update After some research I figured out what to do: sudo apt install xrdp sudo apt install xorgxrdp echo "env -u SESSION_MANAGER -u DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS xfce4-session"> ~/.xsession After this xrdp runs as expected on bionic. If you're not forced to use xrdp, you might also consider to use x2go. Best wishes Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BMP Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Have you had any other problems with Bionic, I just got the CuBox i4x4 and I want to install Bionic on it but I am not sure as there seems to be so many issues with it.

Hard to say. I'm running only Pihole and a mysql database on my CuBox. Bionic, CuBox, mysql and PiHole are running well. Can't tell if you will have issues running another config. Since some initial issues were carried out Bionic and CuBox works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of Bionic on Cubox-i is much more stable now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Pbaumann
Hi,
I installed xrdp with armbian-config. Now I'm able to login with rdp client, but I'm directed to an empty desktop. No bars/menue or similar, just empty no chance of doing something useful.
What's wrong?
Best wishes
Paul
