Hi there, The fix works for me and solves the issues on both machines on which I had encountered it (an Ubuntu 16.04 and a Mint 18).
I cam confirm that uPNP now works properly, and I can connect to the remote desktops. Thank you very much. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to vino in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1610547 Title: Cannot connect to remote desktop, vino eating cpu and not answering Status in vino package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in vino source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: * Impact vino eats cpu and doesn't work correctly when the upnp option is enabled * Test case - log into an unity session - open vino settings - check the upnp box -> the process shouldn't start using cpu, if you have a router with upnp autoconfiguration it should get its table updated * Regression potential the change is limited to the upnp configuration option ---------------------- Seen this on 2 machines both running vino 3.8.1-0ubuntu9, exact same symptoms : - One machine running Ubuntu 16.04.1 xenial LTS (from which I report this) - One machine running Mint 18 Sarah (based on Ubuntu 16.04, showing same behaviour) On both machines, vino does not work or works very erratically : - The Vino icon doesn't appear in the task bar at all, or eventually appears after 20 minutes or so... - uPNP port opening is *NOT* registered by router - Port 5900 seems open - It is not possible to remotely connect to the machine (server not responding) - It *may* (or may not) start working after vino has been running for an extended period of time... - If it eventually starts working, then, well, it works, but that seldom happens.
