Hi,

I have XRDP 0.9.0 (devel) built using O-Matic and working on a clean install
of Debian 7.5 on several servers with  Rage XL 2D graphics cards and can use
xfce with X11rdp  OK.  However, I have failed to get Gnome fallback working
with sesman-X11rdp, even after setting my  .xsession to:

> gnome-session --session=gnome-fallback


The Debian background is visible for half a second before being replaced by
the ³Oh No ­ Something has gone wrong screen².  There is nothing useful in
the xrdp log.


If I connect via sesman-Xvnc then Gnome fallback (MetaCity) works fine ­
usually after the second (sic) attempt !  However, this doesn¹t support copy
& paste.


The physical machines start OK with Gnome, which run in fallback mode
(MetaCity).


I get the same symptoms when running Debian 7.5 and xrdp 0.9.0 on a virtual
machine running on a MacbookPro with 3D graphics enabled.


There is lots on the web saying that Gnome doesn¹t work with 2D graphics but
that Gnome fallback should.


Question:  Has anyone got Gnome fallback working via X11rdp.  If so how, is
this on a 2D graphics machine and what diagnostics do you recommend ?


A bug report that might be relevant:
