Hi

Just to add to my previous post, I get the same messages/issues from my
laptop (Fedora 13, rdesktop-1.6.0-9.fc13.x86_64)

Hi

I've been trying to run "notepad" seamlessly ...before trying more exotic
apps like outlook and autocad....but I'm running into a few problems.

"My Client":
Fedora 12
rdesktop-1.6.0-7.fc12.x86_64
dual monitors running in Twinview mode:

Section "Screen"
# Removed Option "TwinView" "0"
# Removed Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0"
# Removed Option "TwinView" "1"
# Removed Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DFP-1:
nvidia-auto-select +1600+0"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "TwinView" "0"
    Option         "metamodes" "DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen1"
    Device         "Device1"
    Monitor        "Monitor1"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "TwinView" "0"
    Option         "metamodes" "DFP-1: nvidia-auto-select +0+0"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
# Removed Option "Xinerama" "0"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
    Screen      1  "Screen1" 1600 0
    InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
    InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
    Option         "Xinerama" "1"
EndSection




"My server"
vmware desktop 7.0 running a "windows 7 ultimate" guest


I use the following command as a first test:
"rdesktop -a16 -k en-gb  windows7 -u root -p xxxxxxxx"
And I get an instant windows7 desktop.....granted it's only 16bit....but I'm
logged in and it's very snappy.


I then installed "C:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe" on the windows 7
guest as I wanted to test launching "notepad.exe" seamlessly ..... but I get
the following errors:
rdesktop -A -k en-gb -a 16 -s 'C:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe
notepad.exe' windows7 -u root -p xxxxxxxx
WARNING: Broken Window Manager: Timeout while waiting for ConfigureNotify
WARNING: Broken Window Manager: doesn't handle restack (window was moved to
bottom)

As well as these errors it also launches a full screen window (spans both
screens) ...can't see the bottom. Whenever I use "-A" switch I get a full
screen.

I changed my X11 config to only use a single screen but get the same error.


Any ideas?

Thanks
Bruce
