Remmina

Remmina is a remote desktop client written in GTK+, aiming to be useful for system administrators and travellers, who need to work with lots of remote computers in front of either large monitors or tiny netbooks.

Remmina supports multiple network protocols in an integrated and consistent user interface.

The profile options relax-order-checks and glyph-cache, which are under profile’s advanced tab, need be enabled to make remmnia work in Raspberry Pi.

xfreerdp /w:1900 /v:MyDNSServername /relax-order-checks +glyph-cache
