Thanks @frealgagu for packaging this, @nightuser for the existing session patch and @Brinsky for the instructions.

I've compiled both instructions with screenshots and added it to my blog if anyone is having issues with the install. Otherwise, just follow the instructions in the comments by @Brinsky from 2019-12-06 13:58.

Here's how I got this working with the new web app (remotedesktop.google.com):

  1. Build and install the package
  2. run crd --setup
  3. (Optional) Configure execution of your preferred window manager in ~/.chrome-remote-desktop-session
  4. Go to http://remotedesktop.google.com/headless
  5. Click "next" and "authorize" through each instruction
  6. Copy/paste and run the provided "Debian" command, which should look like the following: DISPLAY= /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/start-host --code="<UNIQUE_CODE>" --redirect-url="<https://remotedesktop.google.com/_/oauthredirect>" --name=
  7. Set up a name and PIN
  8. Wait for successful output containing "Host ready to receive connections."
  9. Run crd --start

How does it work?? https://www.apponfly.com/en/ @Brandon? Others? @CharlesAtum did jamesan finally adopt it??? I might be interested..

Brandon commented on 2014-11-10 15:54 (UTC)

I had too hard time fixing all the errors, I decided to change whole platform http://pastebin.com/6CrRF2EP does anybody have an experience?? btw:@CharlesAtum: I had similar problem as @jamesan and changing the dependencies from python 2 to 3 did not work on my PC either

agnotek commented on 2014-10-30 12:19 (UTC)

for PKGBUILD: pkgver=38.0.2125.9 _arch=amd64 md5sums+=('d5322560215d4569608b76390a4cdb4f') don't know md5sum for i686

dlh commented on 2014-10-07 07:30 (UTC)

Checksums are wrong

<deleted-account> commented on 2014-09-18 17:19 (UTC)

@jamesan Could you take a look if CRD still works if you remove the first sed line and change the dependencies from python 2 to 3?

gyurman commented on 2014-09-15 20:53 (UTC)

How can I connect to exciting session?

jamesan commented on 2014-09-13 18:33 (UTC)

Adopted this package. Let's see..: @vendion: I left out a couple steps apparently. Before step 5, the chrome-remote-desktop user group needs to be created and the hosting user must join that group: # groupadd chrome-remote-desktop # usermod -aG chrome-remote-desktop <username> Then, step 5 should generate the expected JSON file and not throw an error after your pin entry. Then, the chrome-remote-desktop user service can be started/enabled to receive remote connection requests. I'll try to codify some of this stuff in the PKGBUILD so there aren't as many or any manual steps needed to make this work after installing the package. Stay tuned...
