From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Examples could be things like specific configuration defaults or general decision-making in leadership.

What would you change?

Every distro with gnome.

Make RDP work as well as it does on Windows.

I'm talking about remoting into the Linux system.

Everytime the system is restarted you have to physically login to the system to unlock the keyring so that your RDP password is accessible or you won't be able to get in. Or you have to remove your keyring password all together. Why is this different than the regular user password?

Also it's weird that it works like VNC where you are controlling the system remotely but anyone local can see what you are doing on the screen. It is also cool to have that option but it shouldn't be the default.

That is distro dependent maybe, because I had to manually edit configs to get what you decribe working on my lan
