0.10 version AUR not starting

[pwn0r]

Since AUR version of both beta xrdp and xorgxrdp was released on AUR, decided to try.

Previously xrdp+xorg was working fine on that machine, using recommended modifications (xinitrc and xwrapper).

Now even uninstalling xrdp and xorgxrpd and installing beta versions the x server does not start.
Also used a hotfix for waitforx as in one of the issues on xrdp repo.

I guess the xrdp package is currently broken on AUR?

The main problem is always the same, the x server is not starting. Trying various things but the result is always same.
e.g. used both Xorg and /usr/lib/Xorg in the sesman.ini etc. Does not matter if you remote login right after VM restart or after logging on console first (which works).

Looks like your xorgxrdp is missing #254

Are you in a position to check that the AUR version is up to date?

[pwn0r]

Looks like your xorgxrdp is missing #254

Are you in a position to check that the AUR version is up to date?

uptodate as per https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorgxrdp
i.e. I had xorgxrdp 0.10.0-1 installed and built via pamac. Removing and rebuilding xrpd and xorgxrpd with pamac did not fix the issue.
something along these lines:

pamac remove xrdp xorgxrdp
pamac clean -b
pamac install xrdp xorgxrdp

xrdp btw works just fine, the errors as per log above (sorry used quote before ) seems to suggest broken xorgxrdp package? As drivers do not load. I did see comments on the main xrdp AUR package and in the process of testing a workaround. Just that the package that is broken is not xrdp per se, but xrdpxorg.

[HubKing]

Is there a way to go back to the previous version? Mine is not starting with [ERROR] waitforx: Unable to open display :10. In my case, it was automatically installed when updating the system, and I don't think the updated version has any new interesting feature/changes for me.

[metalefty]

@HubKing That's the area of Arch Linux. You'll get better answers if you ask that in Arch Linux forum or somewhere. We're not responsible the package of each distribution.

waitforx is not responsible here, I applied a "nop fix" as per one xrdp repo issue, that is replacing waitforx binary with a script which has "exit 0". The problem is that xorgxrdp does not start, so you need to check the actual log of this, ~/.xorgxrdp.10.log for example. This log is the only one here which details what exactly is not working.

~/.xorgxrdp.10.log

Thanks. I checked the file and the content was like the following. Is this the same issue?

I guess we can close the issue now :D it is as I assumed initially, seems to be a broken package on AUR.

provided that all your xrdp/sesman settings are correct otherwise, you can fix the problem with just one line:

pamac install xorgxrdp-glamor

which is also the same version on the current AUR, but it actually works unlike the generic xorgxrdp package.

[HubKing]

pamac install xorgxrdp-glamor

Well, I installed xorgxrdp-glamor, which removed xorgxrdp. The description says Only works on Intel and AMD GPUs., but somehow it worked on my computer which has no GPU at all.

PS: Also, the mouse cursor is no longer clipped. on 4K

[matt335672]

I need to investigate this a little more before we close it I think.

The most likely reason for the failure of the vanilla package is there's a combination of compile switches for 0.10.x which doesn't work, and which we haven't come across in user-acceptance testing.

[matt335672]

I've had a look at this, and it looks like a packaging issue.

I got off to a bad start, because I had a preconception about the cause of this, which was why I mentioned #254. That's nothing to do with it, and I apologise if I misled anyone.

@HubKing - your log file is consistent with that of @pwn0r

The packages xorgxrdp 0.10.0-3 and xorgxrdp-glamor 0.10.0-1 appear to be fundamentally the same:-

• PKGBUILD for xorgxrdp 0.10.0-3
• PKGBUILD for xorgxrdp-glamor 0.10.0-1

Both packages are built with the same source and --enable-glamor.

However, xorgxrdp-glamor has an extra patch which amongst other things modifies the linker path used to pick up modules. I'm guessing slightly, but I reckon that's the cause of the failure as everything else is the same.

The description 'Only works on Intel and AMD GPUs' for xorgxrdp-glamor is incorrect BTW.

[matt335672]

xorgxrdp-0.10.0-4 is now out, so I'm closing this.

[Chocobo1]

However, xorgxrdp-glamor has an extra patch which amongst other things modifies the linker path used to pick up modules. I'm guessing slightly, but I reckon that's the cause of the failure as everything else is the same.

If some patch (for fixing the missing flags, paths, etc.) is required for glamor to be working correctly, shouldn't upstream (this repo) consider picking up the patch instead? If not, please elaborate why.

[matt335672]

Hi @Chocobo1

It depends on your platform.

Debian doesn't need a patch (rules file here) and neither does Fedora/EPEL (spec file here). I haven't looked into the Arch failure in any great detail, so I'm assuming it's the runtime linker path.

The extra patch used by xorgxrdp-glamor is assuming the linker uses specific flags rather than using the libtool-specific facilities. It's not suitable for direct inclusion in upstream. That's not to say that a suitable patch couldn't be developed.

[matt335672]

@Chocobo1 - I've had a think about this and you're right - there's more we should be doing here.

I've had another look at the patch file used by xorgxrdp-glamor and it looks reasonably simple to upstream the important bits. A PR will be raised shortly.
