I just swapped from Mint to Kubuntu running Wayland by default.
KDE does make dragging the RDP window over two screens a lot easier given the full screen, maximise, move and resize menu options are always there working.
But proper full screen over two screens still locks the RDP session to one screen only.
I certainly like KDE more than cinnamon.
I have asked them. It’s an entirely windows centric business. The ticket is “low priority”. WFH has been shifting slowly from a right to a luxury.
I guess I need to do what I can at my end by selecting the most suitable distro / DE.
Yes but our remote access is locked inside Citrix workspace. No control to do anything but use the RDP inside that.
We used to have a different method where by we connected to the company VPN from our home PC, then used a remote connection via that. It worked so well, no lag, full clipboard and drives support. This apparently meant our home PC was a security risk on the company network.
New IT banned that method and switched to Citrix workspace with RDP locked down inside that. Apparently it is much more secure. It is a bug ridden laggy piece of shit to use though and that is on windows. Linux version is no different in terms of lagging.
My company uses RDP locked down inside Citrix workspace.
You have to use the RDP in the workspace. Not roll your own remote connection. There are no other apps inside our workspace.
Not sure how to explain it better than that.
Most of the stuff I’ve read points to Citrix workspace being equally old and outdated thus being better on x11 than Wayland.
Yeah that’s not the same thing that my work uses.
I don’t get a choice of remina.
Sounding good. This was with a RDP session to a remote Windows PC?
I’ve been using this open board fork: https://github.com/erkserkserks/openboard
Mainly because it comes with trace/swipe type input. Is there anything else out there that’s better and more up to date? Probably not up to modifying the above to include libraries.
I was a long term Swype user prior to getting a pixel 7, which it can’t be installed on due to it being 32bit. I’ve not found anything else FOSS or otherwise that comes close to being as good as Swype’s trace predictions. Sadly Microsoft bought the company that made Swype so the odds are it’s never going to see the light of day again. They have their shitty Swiftkey app instead.
Fairly sure graphene OS wouldn’t be doing it.
Are there any particular apps that are going to harvest this data?
I use pipepipe for YouTube / SoundCloud.
Poweramp for local files and it’s never asked for network permission.
