#/usr/bin/lxsession -s Lubuntu-Netbook -e LXDE With Ubuntu 16.04, the deja-dup-monitor bug appears to be resolved (it never exceeded 2.8 MiB of memory usage in my last test).Īs the desktop environment on my computer is LXDE and not gnome, I am using the following: #/usr/bin/openbox-session
#Install google remote desktop ubuntu update
Update November 2016: The instructions have been amended based on further updates by Rob Calistri in the above-linked G+ post comments. This made Ubuntu essentially unusable after connecting/disconnecting via Chrome Remote Desktop. Start Chrome Remote Desktop: /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop -startĬaution: When this answer was originally written for Ubuntu (Gnome) 14.04 in February 2015, there existed an issue where Chrome Remote Desktop somehow caused deja-dup-monitor to go wild and consume all of your system memory (see launchpad bug). Alter launch_session() by commenting out launch_x_server() and launch_x_session() and instead setting the display environment variable, so that the function definition ultimately looks like the following: def launch_session(self, x_args):ĭisplay = self.get_unused_display_number() Reuse the existing X session instead of launching a new one. On Ubuntu 17.10 and lower, this is usually 0, and on Ubuntu 18.04, this is usually 1: FIRST_X_DISPLAY_NUMBER = 0Ĭomment out sections that look for additional displays, as shown here: #while os.path.exists(X_LOCK_FILE_TEMPLATE % display): Set the X display number to the current display number (obtain it with echo $DISPLAY from any terminal).
Stop Chrome Remote Desktop: /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop -stopīackup the original configuration: sudo cp /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop.origĮdit the config file ( sudo vim, gksudo gedit, etc): gksudo gedit /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktopįind DEFAULT_SIZES and amend to the remote desktop resolution. This modification forces Chrome Remote Desktop to use the existing X Server instead of creating new desktops.Īfter installing the Debian package chrome-remote-desktop_current_b, make sure the current user is part of the chrome-remote-desktop group: sudo usermod -a -G chrome-remote-desktop username If you've updated Ubuntu (or Ubuntu Gnome) recently, instead of a blank screen, you likely see just wallpaper without any panels when connecting via Chrome Remote Desktop. This answer originates from Rob Calistri's comment in François Beaufort's G+ post.
