Mint16 XFCE + XRDP trashes desktop settings

Post by getut »

Can anyone help me out? I have a fresh install of Mint 16 XFCE that I am trying to set up as a remote desktop environment.

I have xrdp installed and working, but everytime I sign on via RDP it asks if I want the default desktop and goes back to the ugly XFCE defaults rather than the tweaked Mint variant. If I log back in locally it is trashed locally also until I blow away the folder at ~/.config/xfce4

Why are xrdp logins killing the configuration?

I'd also ask: is this xrdp or Mint problem? XRDP to XFCE works otherwise fine.
I filed this as a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1348091 and referenced this in my post about Cinnamon: http://forum.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.ph ... 22#p894322
