I use the following command to visit a remote machine. rdesktop xx.xx.xx.xx But key combinations Alt+Tab, Alt+F2, Alt+F4 are first sent to local window manager, not to remote machine
use #> rdesktop -G xx.xx.xx.xx from rdesktop --help: rdesktop --help [...] -G: prevent window manager key bindings [...] So the application works as described and expected. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

use #> rdesktop -G xx.xx.xx.xx
from rdesktop --help: rdesktop --help [...] -G: prevent window manager key bindings [...]
So the application works as described and expected.
adding -G option to rdesktop does not work if the server is xrdp but it works if the server is Windows. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
