Hi there!
I'm a new greatefull user of Garuda distro. It's awesome!! Thank you for sharing it!
Back to business.
Currently I'm struggling with issue when I would like connect to my Garuda Linux from other computers.
I have installed xrdp software and sshd to allow for a such connection type. Each attempt ends with black screen (sometimes after showing running spinner) and there is only dead black screen. Nothing more. I'm trying to log in as a administrator.
Can someone provide step by step instructions how to set up it properly, please?
I have found out that using x2geo soft is working perfectly (while we choose current desktop as a taget) but don't like fact that that connected computer reflect everything including mouse movement. Besides I don't want to install in on my all computers. Connecting from Ubuntu to Garuda with x2geo is fine. But I would like to use xrdp instead. For example I would like to connect from Windows RDP to Garuda (which has drag & drop , copy/paste out of the box).
So dear collegues I'm asking for a help with setting up xrdp to allow me connect from different machine.
Best regards

Without that it wouldn't show spinner right? Besides I'm able to choose environment and user. Regarding a non-admin user - that's the point where I would like to login as administrator.
Currently I'm using only one environment.

If needetd I could install ubuntu-mate-desktop for xrdp. But how to configure xrdp to use it?
What if I have the same problem with regular user? How to solve that? Could you provide sollution as well for sending receiving files/folders between computers? Yeap, I'm aware we have scp but in XXI century I would nice to have similar functionality like windows rdp
