I can't believe I've just now discovered HDMI dummy plugs thanks to this video. I agree Gnome RDP is a game changer. Much appreciated!
Perfect timing! I was starting to get fed up with Remmina but never found a better option. Upgrading now
can you recommend better option vs Remmina?
I was getting frustrated trying to figure out why my headless pi couldn't connect to my windows machine remotely and then I stumbled across this video and realized I need a dummy plug for the HDMI. Got one on the way! Thanks Nova for all the videos as they have been a lifesaver while I'm learning Ubuntu.
HDMI dummy plug makes a life a lot easier but you can always try xorg dummy video
I have 4 Windows systems on a KVM switch with 50 feet of cables. Works great locally. Over the internet, I use Remote Desktop with TailScale on each system. TailScale creates a virtual local network. Each system has it's own static virtual IP. This all works really well, solves some key internet problems and reduces attack surface.
Not sure if relevant.
This is a great idea for a video. RDP is really necessary with any interaction with Windows. I will give it a try. Thanks.
Hi. When computer has connected two monitors, is possible to select, which desktop is shared with remote desktop ?
This is really helpful, because I use a Linux system on my nas for dev stuff, while my main pc right now is Windows. I'm using VNC to remote into the VM but was also finding it to be pretty laggy and just not a fun experience to use. Might have to change my setup a bit and check this method out, thanks for the video!
Informative video thanked. However that entire video you did not mention running Moonlight/moonlight-qt on a RPI, very responsive even with a cloud based machine / windows setup. But will this work on Ubuntu on the Pi? Remote power pocket sized.
So how do you connect to gnome Remote Desktop from the client machine?
Rdp
To remedy cursor issue I recommend drawing your own cursor and you'll find out that there is an option to set where the pointer pixel is relative to cursor sprite.
On a all default cursors it is at the top left corner, which only adds up to confusion.
I made myself a cross-hair type sprite with the smallest size that is comfortable at the viewing distance and moved pointer pixel to its center and it is a lot more accurate using peripheral vision this way. Been using it for years now. This way you don't really need it to change for adjustment cursors like window resize cursor or text editor one, its universal.
Thanks for the update. I'm redoing an infrastructure that includes ?NIX and I needed to know what is new in this area.
Thanks a lot! How do we setup linux (ubuntu) as host in moonlight? I only found PC as host..
Thank you for the great video. I have a question. If I'm wanting to remote into a Linux device using Linux, (probably PopOS) what tool would you recommend. It will be an internal, network but it will also be a separate subnet.
Did you evaluate this with 4k monitor also? I tried some stuff but with 4K native everything became unusable - best I got was 2560 something. Also upscaling in XFCE did not seem to work. In a nutshell RDP + 4K monitor remained very comprimised.
works great- other than sound when rdping from windows10/11. any suggestions
Wow, I have to say that Gnome RDP is really good, but the improvements done in the last week in fedora 36 have been gigantic, I used it a week ago and all I got was a black screen with the cursor on it, since the stable release, it is working perfectly.
Thanks for sharing this information! Does that mean this version of gnome is in the latest update to pop_os!? If so my head just exploded... I've been needing this, now I won't have to do GPU passthrough on my rack mounted machine. I already have plenty of those dummy HDMI dongles.
Amazing video. Thank you.
My apologies for being such a novice. Just trying out Linux using Ubuntu and Mint. I was able to activate Genome remote desktop as stated on Ubuntu. The issue I'm running into is after downloading Genome-remote desktop on Mint I cannot for the life of me figure out how to access it. Any idea what I'm missing? I can find it the application in Software Manager but the only option is to remove it. Correct me if wrong, but "what I'm missing" is this application is not for Mint if I'm not using Gnome GUI?
Might be a stupid question.... But if you are working on Ubuntu using Remmina and you are wanting to remote desktop onto another pc running Ubuntu, Do you have to install any additional software?
Nice thanks I'm thinking of turning my i7 2080 super rig into a linux steam server host machine and moving it into my closet. And I have been wanting to take a shot at linux on a spare computer and I will have that spare computer later this spring yay. :)
Nomachine works really great for me, and it can be installed on Windows, Mac, Linux, and ARM (like RPi4).
Also, Steam Link works if you have Steam installed on your hosts because it now allows you to exit "Big Picture" mode and that basically dumps you into the desktop of the remote host.
I usually use Nomachine to remote into my Windows VM for work from my Linux machine, and even used to play games over Nomachine, but recently, I switched to Steam Link for games instead since it is just that bit more responsive to the mouse.
I prefer AnyDesk as you don't have to open port in the firewall for incoming connections.
@@FacelookHK you haven’t need to open port in Real VNC. It is needed only for better direct connect who work without commercial servers.
I can't resize window on nomachine as my laptop screen doesn't allow more resolution.
hiya, great info about Gnome Remote Desktop -- for me its installed, I flipped the access switches, but complains when I attempt to connect : remote desktop connection authentication error occurred token supplied to the function is invalid ... any ideas
Have you tried any of these RDP programs with a cloud service like linode and have you noticed any difference if so?
There is any alternative for Cinnamon in Mint?
Can we use that to share our screen with a SmarTV?
Does the machine using the Gnome Remote Desktop need to be logged in to be able to remote into it? If it does, is there a way around it?
Am new to this Linux world I installed Gallium os on my old chromebook... Please help on how I can go about installing a remote desktop controller which can connect to my Amazon vps
Hey man, I've got a network of some Win10 PC's.. and I'm running Debian 11 on one of my servers. I'd rather NOT have to change out the programs to remove in to just view the Windows 10PC's.. what would you suggest?
I'm currently running RealVNC on all of them, and prefer NOT to use Windows RDP. Which VNC program is the best to use ?
Why not use x11 forwarding?
Have you managed to remote desktop from windows to ubuntu on raspberry pi4?
how do youn connect to a Gnome Remote Desktop machine from a windows11 machine?
Which of these supports audio on Linux with a sound card? It seems like VNCs don't have audio.
Interesting your video, but is there a playlist testing each one from the scratch? - I mean installing some software and doing real testing?
I have yet to find a good option for remote desktop on KDE using Wayland. That's one of the main reasons why I'm still on x11. I'm currently using x11 VNC on the host. If anyone has any suggestions for remote desktop on KDE using Wayland, please mention it a reply.
I hope one day we can see Linux remote desktops in a new session but headless. I wonder if this will work in linode
Do you have a tutorial on setting up lime light?
Guessing both server and client need to be 22:04 or have the updated software installed.
Very good video, thank you very much.
I couldn't get my Windows laptop to connect to the Ubuntu 22.04 server via RDP until I added this firewall rule:
sudo ufw allow from any to any port 3389 proto tcp
I can't xrdp in while logged in. It doesn't create another session it just crashes.
Are you able to remote desktop from the internet using Wayland? 🤔 or did you switch to x11?
Thank you for the content! I was wondering what is the SysMonitor showcased here... Looks much better than what Gnome has
Hey Don, nice video! How about remote access from browser? Like gaming using Apache Guacamole?
i can make a video for that there are a few that i have tested and works really well
@@NovaspiritTech awesome! Would be really fun to able to play some games from the browser by accessing a server.
One question for 22.04 Ubuntu OS tight vnc not working problem with keyboard layout not working please give me the solution
Can I remote into a windows machine from a machine running Debian 12 or Fedora 40?
At 0:57 I see your system monitor shows GPU, can I do this on Ubuntu?
Hi, I have Ubuntu desktop 22.04 in VMware ESXi.i RDP is working ok, except the sound. If I make a remote console using ESXi client sound is ok. Cannot figure out what is wrong. Of course local sound in windows machine and RDP client is OK
Can u explain about zabbix and service now software... How to work on that..
At @ in the video you say you only need to enable the prompt " Remote Desktop". My issue is that when i reboot the prompt is no longer enabled. The Sharing and SSH Prompts stay enabled over a reboot but Remote Desktop does not. I am running PopOS 22.04 on Synology Virtual Machine Manager so not dedicated. VNC does work when it is enabled (even after reboot if I reenable). Another issue I have. With VNC I make the connection and get a black screen but i move the mouse and all good. With RDP same thing with black screen but moving the mouse does not help. I am using screen size 1440-900 on Host and client.
I had forgot to update all the software after installation and then when I rebooted the Remote Desktop was still enabled. Maybe the update or something else not sure. I am not unhappy with VNC so maybe I am good but would be good to understand why RDP is getting a black screen?
How to install gnome remote connection in a new ubuntu server?
Give Remmina a go, works well for me
I'm in process of finally switching to Linux full time (from Windows) on my 'main' computer at home, but I need to be able to remote in while I'm at work. MS RDP has been great in this regard.
But I've been racking my head testing various Linux alternatives like X2Go, XRDP, No Machine. The key features I want are to resume where I left off, and have a locked console at home so nobody can see what I'm doing when I'm remoted in from work. Is XRDP the only option? I can probably live with the lag if I have to.
Google remote desktop?
@@sorh I'm trying to avoid big tech having access to my system which is why I'm leaving Windows in the first place. Thanks anyway.
Hey, have you found any good option for this?
@@Rajkorule NoMachine is the closest I found, but it requires that I leave the monitor on, and connected as the active display on my KVM Switch, otherwise it only gives me 0-1 FPS or doesn't work at all. And the display won't go to sleep.
I'll give it a try. Actually I prefer to use Plasma but for the remote server I'm installing now I'll take Gnome and try it out. I find it really strange that in 2023 there is still not a really good, fast open source solution. Proprietary there are many good, fast remote desktop solutions. But native and open source - difficult. Let's see if gnome-remote-desktop is any good.
Hmm 🤔 maybe that would be a good project to work on then. I'll see if I can find a good repo to help on.
I use Remmina on Linux Mint to remote into a win7 machine. Has been working fine for over a year. Not sure its fast enough to stream media, tho
I use Remmina on my Debian 11 with KDE to remote into my Windows 10 work PC via Comcast cable. Yes it can handle stream media without too much of an issue. The limiting factor is your available bandwidth. I have 1.2gig download and 40mb upload.
Can u help me with this setup I've got mint and trying to remote into RDP
I use Gnome, but it will suddenly stop working. Is there a way to reset it without rebooting the computer and logging in?
Is anyone getting a black screen when RDP from outside the network on the internet?
I recently tried to use the inbuilt remote desktop feature (legacy vnc) in Ubuntu 22.04 but I'm not able to establish a connection. I can connect but the connection is instantly dropped. Not sure if x11vnc is broken because of wayland :(
In this video I was using x11 since it was Nvidia GPU. But they both work for me x11 and wayland
If your using legecy try using tightvncviewer instead
If the remote machine is running Ubuntu 22.04 then only "remote assistance" is being supported. Remote control of a headless server is not supported in Ubuntu 22.04.
How does Gnome Desktop compare to ThinLinc, have you tried? I'm new to remote desktopping, never thought it would be so difficult to achieve, I've been playing games remotely through Steam for years without problems or lag.
great video
There is also X2Go which is simillar to FreeNX.
Probably a silly question, but I could Remote from Mac to Linux, correct ?
I'm a simple man, i just use SSH for remote access on most of my computers LOL
Have a great weekend ahead my brother
SSH is great for command lines, but Xorg forwarding is unusable, even on a fast network
Please Make a video on syncthing on raspberry pi
I gave up on gnome desktop sharing: for some reasons it wants me to pair again for any session. Just new password needed. Turning off autologin didnt help. Spice for windows and linux is actually not bad.
You might want to look at X2GO which works over ssh
How can windows solve the remote login issue and ubuntu can't?
I'm sad I can't use my machine fully remote. I can wake it etc. but can't login :( theres a gnome extension for the locked screen only.
On ubuntu the screen is mirrored as is. I understand the security issue. But why not do what windows does? If you r logged in locally remote session quits, if you r logged in remotely, local session throws you back to login screen. Why mirror? I don't get it.
>How can windows solve the remote login issue and ubuntu can't? <
Key parts of Windows NT/Portable OS/2 are highly optimized for the processors they run. Red Hat publicly challenged Windows to a performance test under mutually agreed upon terms of without GUI and embarrassingly lost and spent considerable time trying to explain how they didn't really lose. That's without the GUI. The Win 16/32/64 API is more vector-region-based. (A brief look at the Windows API will show you what I mean) Either the PC memory is used to store the screen information to send, the video card, or the video card works out the vectors, as is the case with nVidia's CUDA technology and why CAD users are willing to pay so much for it. If nVidia is involved, that tells me they are using their technology to create rather than interpret and render. (CUDA in reverse) Video processors are very fast at this because they can run use instructions of a fixed size (RISC) which enables parallel threads without reordering and optimize to keep most jumps in high-speed memory to minimize the impact of flush. This is also why video cards are used to crack passwords, not the PC's CPU. While X was designed client-server, that capability loses a lot of its practicality once you leave the LAN, especially with the resolutions we use today. Bill Gates put a gun to Ed Iacobucci's head (CITRIX) and could deny him license. Ed held out and Bill said he had another source. Bill came back and paid Ed dearly for RDP but Ed wouldn't sell him other key technologies thereby preserving CITRIX. Microsoft renamed it to Microsoft Terminal Services, and why the client is named mstsc.exe. It took cubic cash and brain cells for XEROX -> Microsoft -> nVidia to work this all out. The little I've read about Wayland has not given me a clear vision of their strategy, it has been a very long time coming, and some major distro players very slow to accept or resistant, which might indicate they aren't convinced Wayland is the answer. So, *NIX desktops can be pretty nice locally but pretty challenged remotely, especially when there are multiple subscribers.
@@jackt6112 Wow, that was interesting! :o Thanks!
@@jackt6112 I use VirtualGL with TurboVNC now (Xproxy), even from containers it works pretty well 😇
@@petertailor8545 Thanks for the information!
X2go works great to
What about remmina
You could go really old school and run an X server on the machine you are connecting to… ;)
pro i'm connected to your youtube and i need your help to download windows 10 acer chromebook 15 cb515-1h N17q5
Why not Linux?
You missed the most important feature for some:
Does it have sound??
With a bit of annoying setup I was able to get sound working in all but vnc cause I never took the time to research for vnc
I'm using nomachine, fastest experience around no doubt
xorg has this build in, most xorg desktops build in
xrdp just does not ever work for me. Best I can do is a black screen. I have tried all the fixes available by a google search.
I got it to work and it sucks.. not worth it in my opinion. But could have been that it's using VNC in the backed
Please review ReactOS both live and installation(boot-cd)
Parsec is another great remote access tool with gaming in mind. Currently you can't remote into a Linux computer, but you can remote into windows and Mac os.
a lot of information no structure, no overview...

@@fffUUUUUU Your mom doesn't think so.
What about Remina Remote Desktop.... way better then the crap u showed.
Isn't Remina a client?
Here he is talking about the server.
@@ekhaat REMOTE Destop is used to get into other computers from other computers, inside or outside ur network, it has nothing to do with servers or clients.
@@OffGridAussiePrepper It has everything to do with clients and servers. The computer you're sitting at is the client, the computer you log into with RDP is the server.
From Wikipedia:
"Remmina is a remote desktop client for POSIX-based computer operating systems. It supports the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), VNC, NX, XDMCP, SPICE, X2Go and SSH protocols and uses FreeRDP as foundation."
I use Remote Desktop all the time at work. That's really the only way you get into a virtual machine in a useful way.
I used Remmina some times back in the days when I ran Linux at home. That was client side. The Windows servers at work was the server side.
@@ekhaat well i dont look at it that way with rdp, i use remina to get into window o/s pc's and it works fine every time. It worked first time off the bat and is self intuitive.
@@ekhaat ok ok ok i can now see how its a client and server relationship.... thanks for the clarity. I remembered u have to always turn on RDP in windows and assign authorized users.
How can I restart the gnome remote desktop from terminal?
