Looks like this is fixed in 1.8.1. I'll update soon. rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20 rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc19 Package rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 20 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-23910/rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20 then log in and leave karma (feedback). rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc19 has been pushed to the Fedora 19 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. The problem still persists : rpm -qa|grep rdesk rdesktop-1.8.1-1.fc20.i686 rdesktop vboxhost Autoselected keyboard map fr Failed to negotiate protocol, retrying with plain RDP. Yeah I'm also seeing the same issue with rdesktop trunk and VirtualBox. Using the older version 1.7.0 works fine so I guess it's the new negotiation code upstream. Meant to say in previous message that this seems like a problem reported upstream too: http://sourceforge.net/p/rdesktop/mailman/message/32115618/ Alternative option is to use freerdp instead. Not sure if this is related, but rdesktop 1.8.1 won't refresh its screen properly when connected to a Windows VM in VirtualBox, whereas rdesktop 1.7.1 works perfectly well. It does sound like that upstream bug report is relevant. Version 1.8.0 wouldn't start at all, whereas 1.8.1 does connect and show what's on the screen at the time of connection, but if I hide and re-expose the rdesktop window it's all black. |
