Every time I try using xrdp, I get a message that says "Oh no! Something has gone wrong." and "A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again." I feel like it is an issue with gdm but I'm not sure. It authenticates, but when it tries to load the screen, I get the white screen with the sad face. I then click on logout and a black screen appears. Any help on how to fix this or any alternatives t xrdp?

          You could try FreeRDP, which takes a different approach to the problem.



          You could also try the workaround (hackish) detailed in this post:

            You could use NX / FreeNX by NoMachine.
