I have spent the evening trying to get xrdp working...
None of these ~/.xsession options work - the connection starts, but then crashes
gnome-session -–session=Ubuntu-2d
gnome-session -–session=gnome-fallback
This question is similer: 14.04.3 xrdp "gnome-session --session=ubuntu-2d" not Work But has no answer.
I have found a solution, using xfce4 instead of gnome, but I would prefer not to have to use two different shells for one system.
Is there any gnome session that does work?
