If upgrading from 0.9.x, please read the 'User Changes' section from the release page:https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/releases/tag/v0.10.0

There is one breaking change that require manual intervention but there are three other changes that will continue to work for now.

xRDP states: Users are urged to heed any generated configuration warnings and update their configurations. Later major versions of xrdp may remove these warnings, or introduce other behaviours for the affected parameters.

Thanks for the tip - yes, I tried some changes (notably reducing the preset to medium) and the problem persists.

Interestingly I've also noticed some awful lag while in use (eg while typing this comment).

FWIW I'm running this in a headless virtual machine with no GPU.

Building without x264 support resolves both issues. I'll raise it upstream. I was mainly interested in how other people have found it.

EDIT: If anyone wanted to follow, issue with samples here: https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/issues/3375

Did you check the link from my previous comment regarding encoding settings? Raise an issue on GitHub if rolling back resolves the issue and you have set some same x264 parameters.

Since upgrading, I'm noticing a distinct lowering in quality, esp in terminal fonts and red writing on black. It reminds me of bad aliasing or interpolation.

Rolling back to:

sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorgxrdp-0.10.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xrdp-0.10.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

fixes it for me, so I'll try building without x264 to see if that's the issue.

Thanks user_58180, I blame Christmas :-)

I have enabled x264 encoding only as this is the preferred encoder according to upstream.

Please see https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/wiki/H.264-encoding#x264 for x264 configuration options once updated to 0.10.2-4

Hi, would it be possible to build with H.264 encoding support?

Thank you xiota for catching the FUSE3 dep

Why not raise an issue on xorgxrdp for the answer from the devs? We can only speculate on the AUR comments.

Thankfully, someone has already asked and the answer is: "It's not out yet, but it's pretty imminent." https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xorgxrdp/issues/360#issuecomment-2545158754

@Abzie - how did they test-build this release without xrdp 0.10.2? Either this wasn't test-built - which is bad - or there's a version 0.10.2 of xrdp out there nobody can find - also bad.

Not sure how this could possibly be updated without xrdp-0.10.2.

Abzie commented on 2024-12-15 15:37 (UTC)

@unclehook there’s not much I can do until upstream releases xrdp 0.10.2 to satisfy the hard dependency.

xorgxrdp has been updated to "xorgxrdp 0.10.3-1" and broke this package:

checking for xrdp >= 0.10.2... no
configure: error: Package requirements (xrdp >= 0.10.2) were not met:

Package dependency requirement 'xrdp >= 0.10.2' could not be satisfied.
Package 'xrdp' has version '0.10.1', required version is '>= 0.10.2'

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XRDP_CFLAGS
and XRDP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

There is definitely a work around (which I have not yet searched for, or found).

I just wanted to point this out.
