Hi,
I reinstalled EndeavourOS yesterday on my media server.
It’s my media server so a lot has been experimented on and now that I know what i want I “cleaned my slate” so to speak to start over from scratch.
I get this when I look at the Krdp server status:
$ systemctl --user status app-org.kde.krdpserver

If I delete the saved connection and re-create it I get to the login prompt of EndeavourOS in the Krdp window for about 1-3 seconds, then the window crashes but the KRDP session window shows I am still connected on the bottom status bar.
Every connection attempt after that ends in the connection window crashing before I see anything.
If I recreate the saved session once more I can then see the EndeavourOS login prompt once more for a 1-3 seconds, then crashes again and rinse, repeat.
When I installed it I used: sudo pacman -Syu krdc and then again using krdp
I have NOT yet rebooted the PC as I am awaiting a SeaTools sanitization wipe on my hdd and cannot reboot until it completes.
Any ideas would be most welcome.
EDIT: I fixed it by changing the security level from what seems to be the default of 80 bits to ANY.
I am typing this from the remote PC via KRDP.
Posting anyways in case anyone can get any help from this in the future.
EDIT:EDIT: it crashed again while I was remoted in
-I came to the “remote PC” and everything seems fine.
I re-ran status and results below: different issue now:
