Public bug reported: I can connect to windows 8, using windows XP. I can connect indirectly from Ubuntu 11.10 to Windows XP SP3 to Windows 8. If I connect directly from Ubuntu to Windows 8, I get a black screen and a lot of bitmap errors.
If I do use the option -b, I connect and see the log-in screen, but I am not able to do any input, not the mouse nor the keyboard. If I use the parameters -u and -p, windows log me in, but I cannot make any input again.
