I detected that the problem is on the interface between rdesktop and the rdp server of virtualbox. Rdesktop uses the resolution selected in the past by the rdp server. I cannot change the resolution using the linux version of rdesktop, but I can change the resolution using the windows XP version of remote desktop.
Note that the warning message is confusing, Remote Ddesktop does not take the initiative to change the resolution, but it is forced to use the resolution of the rdp server. So I propose a message like: Need to use the remote desktop server resolution of wxh. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/919401 Title: rdesktop overrules resolution specified with -g To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rdesktop/+bug/919401/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
