Is there a version of rDesktop yet for OS2008? I looked but couldn't seem to find one.

The rdesktop for os2007 does not install on os2008 from the maemo site. I had to downrev my n800 back to os2007 to get rdesktop to work. So I'll ask the question again. Is there a version of rdesktop that works for os2008? Does it just need to be rebuilt? Anyone know?

rDesktop is working just fine in N800 with OS2008 installed.

Ok. That's great. Didn't work for me, it said unsupported OS. So if you don't mind, could you give a direct link where you found the binary? I got it from here.

Thanks for the link. Yes it's Remote Desktop for Windows hosts. You need to enable remote desktop access on your Windows machine. Plus you need a username/password. Only certain versions of XP/Vista support Remote Desktop. For example, XP Home does not.

If you run rdesktop from xterm, you can see what error is causing it to close.

Add me to the list of people who have rdesktop working just fine. I installed it from application manager, and it worked right away.
