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

@Bakasura It's nice but I'm not sure what is the expected behavior for most users. Do you think you want to use always the active session or you want to open a new session instead? I think chrome-remote-desktop developers use the :20 in order to not affect the current session

@Bakasura nice!

@Terence I created a patch file https://pastebin.com/tjWkgMqq

@frealgagu can you add?

Unable to install due to: Validating source files with sha256sums...chrome-remote-desktop-79.0.3945.10.deb ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! Failed to build chrome-remote-desktop

Any help with this? I've read the other comments that say this but I'm new and don't understand what is happening. I install Manjaro for the first time yesterday. Thanks for any help!!

@Brinsky It works, thanks a lot.

/usr/bin/crd launches nano. I suggest that either nano be made a dependency for this package or crd be patched to use the $EDITOR variable and check for the $EDITOR's existence before running it.

Thanks a lot! it works great after some settings. I'll write down the steps for any newbie. - build and install the package. - run crd --setup. - edit /home/user/.chrome-remote-desktop-session (remove the "#" to enable exec DE). - run crd --restart.

@frealgagu would you mind patching it with https://researchxuyc.wordpress.com/2014/07/30/to-show-the-same-display-session-in-ubuntu-by-chrome-remote-desktop/comment-page-1/ so we can use our existing session ?
