I just installed Ubuntu 25.10, enabled rdp through the settings menu and ensured firewall port was open. I can connect using rdp with windows just fine. However, when trying to connect using my Ubuntu 24.04 laptop, remmina just immediately closes after connecting. I remember having this issue long ago with Ubuntu 18 or 20? Sucks to suck ubuntu.
Suggest me a new disto for my 3D modeling, ECAD, old gaming and general fun rig. Its an Intel 13th gen cpu and Nvidia 30s series GFX, if it matters.
Not strictly “out of the box” since the setting isn’t enabled by default, but any distro with a recent version of GNOME installed will have RDP available. It’s ready to be toggled on in settings under System > Remote Desktop > Desktop Sharing:
Unfortunately, RDP always seems to be fiddly for me, it does that disconnect immediately after connecting that you described. Sometimes if I just keep hitting connect over and over, eventually it’ll get confused and stop disconnecting so that I can actually use the desktop for a while. YMMV.
