And it starts before the keyring is unlocked, so it creates a new password every time it starts. It looks like gnome-remote-desktop runs as a user service, not a system service, so it's not active unless the user logs in. I am hoping to have remote desktop available on boot, without logging in, or if it uses auto-login it keeps the password, so that I can run the system headless and RDP/VNC into it. It has some quirks related to the password, which I found out about on this post:Ģ2.04 - Remote Desktop Sharing authentication password changes every reboot I have no idea whether this is a coincidence since I upgraded my kernel, because until today I had not had this problem again for some weeks.įor now I am about to write a little script and whack it on the desktop or the panel so I can click on it and copy the file across with a click (or two if the settings have gone back to defaults ).Ī script to sutomate what ReddTedd59 suggests, should easily solve my problem and might be something to consider for anyone accessing remotely through VNC.I just installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and was delighted to see that a remote desktop server is built in and supports MS RDP in addition to VNC. But if I click on Medium Screens default, all seems ok again. Then I am hack to locked up and can't move, resize or click on title bar stuff. I just discovered with the latest kernel (at Dec 2019) if I choose the Large Screens default, I get my title bar actions back - UNTIL - I edit the double click on title bar on Openbox config. The problem is as annoying though and even 'on the desktop' using the defaults method is failiing.įor anyone who isn t comfortable fiddling around with config files (for example - beginners), and who tried the 'defaults' method. My Pi 4 has just done this to me again and I am not accessing it through VNC. Maybe tomorrow I will check to see how the physical desktop is working. But your solution seems to have fixed all of my problems using VNC (which I'm using right now). I was wondering, though, did you have this problem only on the VNC connection, or did the regular physical desktop (keyboard -> USB and monitor -> HDMI) have the problem as well? And what did you use for the VNC server on the Pi? Did you use the pre-installed server that comes with Raspbian? I purged it (with apt-get), and then I did sudo apt-get install tightvncserverĪlso, did you have any luck with the Alt-Space solution? I had partial success, in that I could then use the mouse to drag windows, but was still unable to click the minimize/restore/close buttons. Your fix worked for me as well, thanks so much! How did you know how to do that, was it your discovery? I would never have discovered that because I never touch those default settings. Problem gone, but I don't know why or what happened in the first place. Choose the Defaults tab and click one of the choices. In my case this was the solution: Go to Settings on the main menu and then to Appearance settings.
