SSH connection to Linux machine with some "graphic" interface doesnt sohw up

Hey guys,
So I'm trying to connect to a Linux vm via SSH but some of the screens are show some basic graphical screens.

When using Devolutions RDM I'm not able to see those, using Windows terminal or mRemoteNG does show this correctly.
Anyone have an idea if its some kind of setting that need to be changed?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can try changing the "Terminal encoding" in the "Terminal" tab. The default is UTF8, so you should try the others, but I can't tell you which encoding you need.

Another setting that could be of influence is the "Skip environment variable setup" in the "Advanced" tab.

And there is the "Override terminal type" option (in the "Terminal" tab) that you can check and enter in the text field next to it: xterm

I hope this helps,
Regards

Hey Denis,
Thank for your reply, seems like the mremoteNG client which shows that well is using putty and ssh v2.
Is that something that can be done with the RDM client?

Hi,

RDM has most settings that putty has, so yes, I think your interface could be displayed correctly in RDM. Could you provide a screen shot of the correct display in mremoteNG and how it looks in RDM? This would be very helpful.

Hey Denis,
I've investigated a bit more on what is running and its python running in the background.
Curses Programming with Python — Python 3.13.3 documentation this to be specific.

Since its kind of graphical i'm not able to see it

Hello,

Could you please send us a screenshot of the graphical interface you are referring to, along with the behavior you're experiencing in RDM? We are still unclear about the issue and would appreciate further clarification.

Best regards
