Description of problem: When using RHEL7 and vinagre, the RDP session that is connected will only display the guest at an 800x600 resolution (Minimum resolution). There is no way to change it on the client or guest. There is already a bug upstream about this. I will have an external link to the bug Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL-7.0-20120711.2 vinagre-3.4.2-1.el7 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
You are right, vinagre doesn't offer changing of resolution of the host (except of running in fullscreen mode). You can use "rdesktop {-u username} -K -g 1024x768" instead for now. Marek
I've created a patch adding spin buttons for specification of the size of the screen. It is attached in the upstream bug. I'm moving this to 7.1 because this feature request needs an UI change.
The patch has been committed upstream (vinagre-3.9.x).
Because bug's title coresponds to VNC and bg's description to RDP I've tested both....both cases are working with vinagre-3.8.2-12.
