As for me, I dont' use rdesktop's fullscreen mode, just set window geometry to fit all screen space except dzen panel by using "-g 1280x1008+0+30" command-line switch. 2009/9/21 Chengqi Song

thanks, but that doesnt work well, after toggling to fullscreen mode, the rdesktop window doesnt resize well and a lot of gray space is left.

Try Ctrl-Alt-Enter to toggle fullscreen mode. This solution was found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=918148

hi,

i like to use rdesktop -f xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to connect to my windows pc, in fullscreen mode. but after entering the rdesktop window, i can not switch out anymore, M-1/2/3... can not switch workspaces anymore. i have to disconnect the remote machine to switch out. how can i use xmonad's hotkey inside a rdesktop window?

this "-K" then "C-A-Enter" method works, great! lars On Mon, 21 Sep 2009, Sergey Manucharian wrote:

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.
