I'm getting the same error as smekkleysa, only it's happening when I try to start the client. All packages are up to date.

When I try to login, I get the error below. I updated all packages, but I still cannot login.

I've updated splashtop-streamer for the new dependencies.

This fails to install as of 09/30/2014 with the following error.

[lance@Arch-Chromebook ~]$ pacaur -S splashtop-streamer

Thanks Kynolin, adding a new resolution worked :) so it's just a limitation of the UI after all.

As far as the 1024x768 limit, this can be changed in "/opt/splashtop-client/SRSrvdlg.ui". Just search for "1024". You can either change it or copy the section to add additional options. This worked for me on Ubuntu 14.04, but I'm currently facing the login issue in Arch archbitusr and BrainwreckedTech mentioned. I was hoping this was just my own issue behind a proxy. :(

Perhaps it's because I've already specified login details, but I don't have any issue connecting to other servers. I have the latest updates installed.

I can confirm something is broken in this package as I'm getting the same error as archbitusr. I thought it might be due to the use of plus-addressing in the email, but I created an account without it and still can't log in.

It seems like Splashtop feels "it works in Ubuntu 12.04" == "Linux support". >:(

I just checked and there hasn't been a newer version.

Is the 1024 resolution limitation still valid?

I thought there was a newer version but the site seems to be down at the moment.

It works fine for me so I'm afraid I can't help. You may want to check if the relevant packages (e.g., expat, python27) don't come from AUR as they're often outdated.

The main issue with the client is that it's limited to 1024x768 so I haven't found any use for it.

Yes, including Windows servers.

When you say client does that mean one will be able to access other splashtop-streamers using this utility?
