December 11, 20223 yr Hi, I am testing armbian with openhab on odroid C4. Sometimes it can be handy to login via Remote desktop to my machine. I enabled RDP through armbian -config, but I can not remote desktop to the machine. When i connect trough renmina or windows rdp, i get the xrdp login screen, but when i enter user and pasword, i get thrown out of the programm, be it srenmina or windows remote desktop. So the problem seems to be on the armbian side. Any suggestions where to look to fix shis? Armbian version 22.11.1 running on odroid C4. Thks in advance
December 11, 20223 yr Is there a file named .... .xsession .... in that user's home directory and if there is, what is the contents of that file? I had the same issue not too long ago and I had this file there with its contents being .... "xfce4-session" After reviewing the logs I removed that file (it was not needed in my case) and the xfce4 desktop started.
