[rdesktop-users] rdesktop 1.3: two questions

[Bjoern D. <bj...@gb...>]

Hi,
=20
first of all: congratulations to your fantastic work - I remember when I
worked at IGEL (a Thinclient company in German) and what a big problem
it was to be compatible with "remote windows" - NTtrigue, WinCenter Pro,
first ICA Client for Linux - so Im very supprised about the efforts of
this project!

I got two small problems or questions:
=20
First of all, I have problems with the sound-support within rdesktop (I
even tried the CVS version) - I use a Intel i810 (AC97) codec which
works fine for my Linux system - /dev/audio & /dev/dsp works fine. But
there is no sound coming from rdesktop at all (launching it by using
"rdesktop ... -r audio:local").
So can it still be a problem with the soundcard or might it be the
problem that I connect to Windows XP Professional (but sound redirection
with WinConnect, a commercial RDP client works) ?
=20
Then, I have a question concerning themes and desktop-wallpapers: When I
launch rdesktop with "-4" for RDP 4 - I get  my Windows Theme and
Desktop-Wallpaper and stuff like that - when I start it with "-5" it's
disabled - is there a way to have RDP5 plus Themes... ?
RDP5 is needed for color-depth > 8 bit - right ?

Thanking you in advance.
