Hi lars,

I use rdesktop every day, but not in full-screen mode. Switch "-K" (keep window manager key bindings) works fine. But I've checked now and found, that it doesn't work with "-f" switch. The solution is the following: run "rdesktop -K -f xxx", and then press Ctrl-Alt-Enter. Visually nothing changes (it occupies the whole screen), but now you are able to use your xmonad's hotkeys.
