-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2024-7a85185563 2025-01-14 01:21:49.739428+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : xorgxrdp Product : Fedora 40 Version : 0.10.3 Release : 5.fc40 URL : https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xorgxrdp Summary : Implementation of xrdp backend as Xorg modules Description : xorgxrdp is a set of X11 modules that make Xorg act as a backend for xrdp. Xorg with xorgxrdp is the most advanced xrdp backend with support for screen resizing and multiple monitors. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: IMPORTANT: xrdp now runs under an unprivileged user account. H264 support has been enabled, so be sure to enable relevant openh264 repository. Release notes for xrdp v0.10.2 (2024/12/24) General announcements Power Up Privacy and @CyberTrust sponsored H.264 encoding (mentioned later). We greatly appreciate the sponsorship. If you like xrdp, please consider sponsoring or donating to the project. We accept financial contributions through Open Collective, and direct donations to individual developers via GitHub Sponsors are also welcome. Highlights H.264 encoding Weâ??re very excited to announce that xrdp has supported H.264 encoding in graphics remoting since v0.10.2. xrdp with H.264 encoding reduces the amount of data transmitted over the network and provides a much smoother and more responsive experience compared to previous versions when using graphics- intensive applications. For details, see the H.264 encoding page on the wiki and also check the Known Issues section. Unprivileged xrdp daemon Since v0.10.2, xrdp officially supports running xrdp daemon as an unprivileged user. xrdp-sesman daemon still needs to be run as a privileged user because it handles user authentication and session management. Running xrdp daemon as an unprivileged user requires some adjustments, such as user/group and files/directory permissions. We have bundled a script named xrdp- chkpriv with xrdp to check if it is ready to run xrdp as an unprivileged user. The script is typically installed into /usr/share/xrdp/xrdp-chkpriv. See also the man page of xrdp.ini for more configuration information.
