rdesktop driving me nuts!
 

rdesktop has always has been fussy, but it really annoying me now. I have to rerun it countless times before it connects to any one of my 3 machines, and even when it does finally connect, it only last for a random amount of time. Since i reflashed to new os2008 recently, it;s been worse,am i the only one?

connectng to both vista/xp machines

whats your power saving setting on the N8x0?

do you have problems with audio streams, like net radio?

i have a router that do not like it when my N800 goes into power save, resulting in similar issues. i recall i had trouble connecting the ssh because of it for one thing.

You're not the only one. I have the same exact issue. It can take up to 15 or so restarts before it finally connects.

rdesktop on OS 2008 is extremely unreliable. I am really surprised that nobody has done a polished RDP client for the NITs, as it seems like one of the more obvious killer apps. Instead, all the competent programmers are off working on some unplayable emulator for some random 15 year old gaming system or some such. I realize it is their time and all, but I for one would be willing to pay for a robust, feature rich RDP client.

I currently run RDP on 3 nokia 770s and one 880. I too would pay for a better program, one that prefribly would include remote sounds as well. I may be asking for much here but rdesktop is just a band aid in my opnion.

Re: rdesktop driving me nuts!
 

Which rdesktop are you using?

The GUI one from the repo's or pipelines's command line version?

BTW: I don't use rdesktop at all.

Re: rdesktop driving me nuts!
 

GUI version for me

Re: rdesktop driving me nuts!
 

You may want to try the cli version. Not sure which post of pipeline it is in but I hear it works better. But you will have to use command line though.
