  1. What's up with #Remmina on #Ubuntu? I have weird typing issues (duplicate characters, etc.). Switched to plain #FreeRDP and then all is well.

    It did take me a while to find out what the command line is. Why on earth is the display version as a prefix? Why not a suffix? =)) xfreerdp3 vs wlfreerdp3 vs sdl-freerdp3 etc. and how am i supposed to know, that wlfreerdp3 isn't good? Neither is the SDL version. In the end the X11 version works like a charm on Wayland... go figure...

    Hey R.L. Dane,

    as per your OP in this thread, I've been using #Remmina for years. X2Go, RDP, WhatEv really floats yer boat ⛵ , it's there.

    Uh, oh, I feel a tangent coming on... Okay not to hijack your thread, but maybe you can offer a bit of your perspective on flatpak vs appimage alternatives, since I don't prefer either, and usually will go out of my way to create a native package for WhatEv distro I'm using if it doesn't exist, or just compile from source rawdawg if need be like I did with #Zed (which only impresses me because of Git integration and Vim bindings; and it's Rust) - Jury's still out on that one though.

    Anyway, I just broke down and installed a flatpak for the #LaGrange browser because I got a bit lazy and didn't wanna make the .deb for myself.

    Okay, back to your situation...

    Remmina HERE is pretty comprehensive with the native package managers with ready to go .deb's for #Forky & Sid, #SlackBuild for #Slackware, #FreeBSD & #OpenBSD ports, #Devuan, #Gentoo, #Guix, and #Kali just to name some.

    It's pretty straight-forward and a single package to accommodate a plethora of methodologies so you can use it as your Varsity first string go-to in a pinch most of the time.

    Even better, is the fact that they don't have an ewb00ntew maintainer, lolz... Coz frinds don't let frinds run ewb00tew :p

  5. HiDPI in #GNOME is a great way to easily spot interesting performance issues.

    I tried out #GNOMEConnections to #RDP to a laptop that has a 4K display, and discovered that it's extremely slow compared to #Remmina connecting to that same machine:

    * High CPU usage when the window is focused and idle (no mouse cursors moving, no animations)
    * The client-moved cursor lags on the remote host
    * Moving windows lags a lot

    Reported as:
    * gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c
    * gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c

  6. My flat panel setup: a sideways laptop with a simple, auto-refreshing, html page with uniform background color opened full-screen. I `ssh` into the laptop to adjust the background color to get the desired level for each color channel depending on the filter used.

  7. Trying #HaikuOS for the first time in several years. It remains faster and cleaner than any other modern OS, and I'm excited to see ports of #RSSGuard, #Remmina, and #Qutebrowser. For me, biggest issues affecting casual use are lack of support for VPN, Nextcloud, and Bitwarden. SSH tunneling and web apps for Nextcloud and Bitwarden might get me far enough!
