Remote Desktop With Raspberry Pi
I chose xrdp for this, as I’ve had good experiences with it in the past. To install it in Raspian, you simply type:
sudo apt-get install xrdp
This will install everything you need on the Pi. It will start up every time you start up your Raspberry Pi.
Now get your IP address
ifconfig eth0 | grep inet | cut -c21-30
Remember this IP as you’ll need to use it to find your Pi from another machine.
Connect to the Pi with Linux
If you want to connect to your Pi from Linux that’s equally easy.
I generally use rdesktop to connect. If you’re using Ubuntu or another Debian based installation, type in
sudo apt-get install rdesktop
After that installs, type in the following:
rdesktop < the IP address of your Pi >
You’ll see the familiar xrdp screen again.
