Hi Kevin,

I've tried x11rdp-o-matic 3.0beta1 on Debian Wheezy and it worked quite
well, xrdp with X11rdp started after the build had completed. There were
some error messages about the user being xrdp missing, looked like a chmod
failed because of it.

One minor issue is that after connecting to the machine via RDP, the locale
was set to POSIX instead of sv_SE.UTF-8. This has been an issue with
xrdp/X11rdp for as long as I've tried it, I normally add these lines to
startwm.sh as a workaround:

if [ -r /etc/default/locale ]; then
  . /etc/default/locale
  export LANG LANGUAGE
fi

x11rdp-o-matic seems to replace startwm.sh with a link
to /etc/X11/Xsession, my new workaround is to create a new startwm.sh
script with the above lines and add a line to run /etc/X11/Xsession after.

Even then, the keyboard in KDE was set to en_US I believe, that was easily
fixed by manually changing to swedish keyboard layout.

If I log on locally I get the correct locale and keyboard layout.

Cheers,
Daniel
