This is my next article in my “perfect” Garuda Linux install. Remember that I’m coming from Ubuntu and was looking for something different. If you haven’t followed along, here’s the articles so far:
In this post, I’m going to go through setting up my computer for my professional work tasks and different productivity apps.
Just after install, I ran into an issue with Remmina not connecting with remote desktop. Come to find out, one of the previous steps I had taken had uninstalled the remmina-plugin-rdp package. I was able to download it and install it, but it broke apt-get.
Here’s the error message:
sudo apt install remmina remmina-plugin-rdp remmina-plugin-vnc remmina-plugin-nx
[sudo] password for skp:

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgoo-canvas-perl : Depends: libextutils-depends-perl but it is not going to be installed

I had previously enabled this repository.
http://ppa.launchpad.net/remmina-ppa-team/remmina-next/ubuntu
That had given me version: 1.2.30.1 (git n/a)
I disabled the repository using the software and updates GUI. Then, I ran these commands:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt --fix-broken install
Somehow it was enabled again. So, it seems it is fixed even with that repository.
I’ve started having issues with Remmina with it displaying windows in PeopleSoft’s App Designer on my remote desktop. It happens with multiple desktops for some reason. I also tested with XFreeRDP, and everything looks fine through that tool.
Here’s what it looks like:
I’m opening a ticket on GitHub, so I’m hopeful that someone can point out what the issue is.
My first step this time around after restoring files was to install the network-related applications. I needed to get back online quickly with being able to talk to people, connect to clients’ VPNs, and hit websites.

This is a continuation of my previous post (restoring files) on my install of Ubuntu 14.04. In this post, I’ll go through configuring and installing things related to networking. You can see the complete lists of posts on Ubuntu 14.04 on my main install page.
This is probably simple, but I thought I would post it in case someone else missed it like I did. For the longest time, I could not figure out how to copy and paste from the keyboard into an SSH session.
