Hi all Is anyone working on cut&paste between win and linux? If no, can anyone give me a hint on where can I start on the code? I have mostly clear how to paste on win after copying on linux, but copy on win and paste on linux seems a lot more difficult, at least to me. Kind regards, Hector -- Hector Garcia <he...@se...> SERMAN |

I believe this is only possible in RDP5, not RDP4. There is an effort to support RDP5, but that's a big undertaking that may take a while. -- Bob Bell <bb...@us...> |

Hi Erik, How far are you with the rdp5 port? My collegue would also like to start with working on rdp5 support. Do you think that you could help us there?

"Patricia Gibson" <pg...@es...> writes: > How far are you with the rdp5 port? Well.. Nothing in CVS yet, but in my working-copy: *) Rdesktop tells the server it supports RDP5. *) Rdesktop finds the public keys of the server (new X.509-based format) and sets up the crypto. I do experience some mysterious disconnects though, that seems to be cryptorelated. *) Rdesktop opens a channel to CLIPRDR (The clipboard redirector). However, this is just a hack right now, it's not doing anything with the data. *) Rdesktop sets the magic byte (that should be padding according to the spec.) to tell the server to start sending RDP5-packets. *) Rdesktop understands most of the stuff sent from the server, but there are some unknown opcodes. Also, there are unknown bitmap compression tags (0xf, the T.128 only specifies tags up to and including 0xe) which means the bitmaps fail to display. Result: Boring desktop =). Some of this is integration of code that Matt wrote a while ago, some of it is new. Hmm.. Ah. Very interesting; If I don't set the magic byte (it's in the general capabilities), the server will only sent RDP4 packets, which means we can parse all updates as before, and only channel data goes as RDP5. The 16bit colour support doesn't seem to work when announcing RDP5 support. This time, the colour corruption is on a blue theme. > My collegue would also like to start with working on rdp5 support. > Do you think that you could help us there? Maybe. I could commit my code to CVS, which should be OK since the webpage warns about unstableness. \EF -- Erik Forsberg Telephone: +46-13-21 46 00 Cendio Systems Web: http://www.cendio.se |
