In the spirit of trying new things, I'm running Fedora 44 Workstation (i.e. Gnome50) on my laptop... whilst I run the KDE spin on my desktop.

I've noticed that setting up remote login on both is really easy... and using the default RDP viewer in KDE I can simply connect to my laptop... great.

However, trying to connect from my laptop to my desktop isn't working. (Firewalls have been configured, thanks).

Using the "Connections" app just fails to connect but never stops trying. I downloaded RustConn and that gives me an error telling me that it's spawned an external viewer (it hasn't) as the RDP server isn't compatible.

I can, however, connect to my desktop just fine from a Windows VM with the "Windows App" 🤢

Anyone have helpful suggestions?

The weirdness of libdvdcss being a tainted non-starter at Fedora leads me to believe Fed-door-A is a red beret division project for the FBI.

Who the fuck isn't crushing those egg shells?

It's a salt line around the door kind of ward thing!
