Unable to use dual monitors in Linux Mint 18.1 on a thin client remote session using xfreerdp


Installed Linux Mint 18.1 on a Acer Thin Client, Dual monitors work great within Linux, but when using multiple different Remote clients to remote into windows remote session i have varying results. first i used remote desktop Client, i was able to get both screens working but only they were spanned, it worked but very cumbersome resizing windows.

second i tried xfreerdp which will only work won one monitor at a time.

sudo lshw -c display
*-display
description: VGA compatible controller
product: 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 2
bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
version: 09
width: 64 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
resources: irq:27 memory:f7800000-f7bfffff memory:e0000000-efffffff ioport:f000(size=64)


Im completely stumped trying to get this to work, any ideas would be great.

Dual Monitors on Mint thinclient

Hi

I am a newby also but I saw this little article on 'ask ubuntu'

This suggests trying 'X2Go' which should be available in Mint software Repository.

Worth a try !

Good Luck
