Fullscreen with rdesktop / rdesktop-vrdp

It’s extremely useful to use rdesktop (or virtualbox the rdesktop-vrdp) for RDP connections to Windows hosts from your Linux workstation.

Fullscreen mode

This is how to launch a session in fullscreen mode:

1

jonas@erebus:~$ rdesktop 10.6.26.40 -f &

Exit fullscreen mode using CTRL+ALT+Enter

Percentage for size

Alternatively, set a percentage for the screen real estate you’re willing to give the RDP session like so:

1

jonas@erebus:~$ rdesktop 10.6.26.40 -g 90% &
