neztik Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 I downloaded the current cvs of rdesktop and compiled it on my iMac Intel core duo and copied it to my 10.4.4 hackintosh and it seems to work fine. Dont know if this is old news, but I wanted to use it instead of M$ RDP (ppc). I have attached the binary. Not sure of the rules since they changed. So it might not be here long. rdesktop.intel.tar.gz Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11225-rdesktop-cvs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

neztik Posted March 7, 2006 Author Share Posted March 7, 2006 You will need to run this under X11 - Xterm. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11225-rdesktop-cvs/#findComment-70602 Share on other sites More sharing options...

neztik Posted March 8, 2006 Author Share Posted March 8, 2006 On my systems, including my iMac Intel Core Duo the Microsoft RDP client takes forever to startup using rosetta. It also seems to start only when it feels like it. I wasnt having any luck with the Darwinports, so that is why I decided to compile it myself. I will take a look at the darwinports again.

neztik Posted March 8, 2006 Author Share Posted March 8, 2006 Installed great within DarwinPorts: sudo port install rdesktop Did you compile darwinports 1.2. Or is there a precompiled binary that I can install? I downloaded the 1.2 and it was for ppc. So when I do the sudo port install rdesktop I get the wrong architecture error. iMac-Intel:~ $ sudo port install rdesktop Password: no suitable image found. Did find: /opt/local/share/darwinports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture while executing "load /opt/local/share/darwinports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib" ("package ifneeded" script) invoked from within "package_native require Pextlib 1.0" ("eval" body line 1) invoked from within "eval package_native $args" (procedure "package" line 14) invoked from within "package require Pextlib 1.0" (procedure "dportinit" line 309) invoked from within "dportinit ui_options global_options global_variations" Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Failed to initialize ports system, no suitable image found.

blkblt Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Just download the source for darwinports and compile it. Once you get the 'port' binary built you're off and running! That shouldn't take more than: $ tar xfvz xxxx.tar.gz $ cd xxxx $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11225-rdesktop-cvs/#findComment-71861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
theturtle Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I am using Remote-Desktop-Connection directly from Microsoft. Runs very well in Rosetta!!! What sort of system are you running, i'm remoting into some machines of mine and the lag unbearable. i can screen redraws at 1024x768x16bit (fullscreen) using Rosetta rdp client. Im gonna try rdesktop, I always had no problems with that on Ubuntu. I just have to figure out how to install X11 and get that going.

John Main Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I tried the CVS compiled version of rdesktop from the poster. Does anyone know how to get copy/paste to work from the Mac to the remote desktop. This CVS version does copy/paste from the remote to the mac, but not in the other direction.
