RDM on Debian Trixie with Backport Kernel 6.16

RDM on Debian Trixie with Backport Kernel 6.16

Hello Everybody,

I am trying to get RDM running on Debian Trixie with the backport kernel 6.16 and am experiencing the following strange behavior:

- When I start RDM and then try to start an RDP session, I am always asked for my username, password, and domain, even though I have already stored the username and domain in the saved entry. When I try to enter the data, the form is locked and I can only click on Cancel. After restarting the RDP session once or twice, I can enter the data, but the process is canceled without a message and the RDP session is not started.

- If I want to adjust the properties of the saved session, I have to cancel the properties several times and call them up again until I can change something in the entries.

Is there a way to enable debugging to get better log files?

The RDM is a team version with 5 users and has its data source on an MS SQL server. The version under Linux is 2025.2.1.5.

Thanks, Christoph

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Devolutions Support.

I attempted to reproduce the issue on a Ubuntu MATE installation, but the problem did not occur on my end.

Could you please try launching Remote Desktop Manager by running the `remotedesktopmanager` command in the terminal, then recreate the issue and send us the logs?

Best regards,

Hello Christoph,

Please make sure to update RDM Linux to the latest version (2025.3.0.8) before trying the previous step suggested by my colleague.

Hi Carl, hi Gabriel,

@Gabriel Dubois i did the upgrade but nevertheless the error remains the same.

@Carl Marien Attached is a screenshot that may provide a clue as to the errors that are causing the RDM to not function as intended.
