My Screen

What is the purpose of the connection?

There may be a sleeker solution to what you want to achieve on the remote desktop session.

Hello,

maybe related to this bug ?
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1251281)

no matter if it says "Fix Released", a regression could be occured.

Try the same with another DE (ie XFCE) and if it works OK, I would suggest to open a new bug report.

Hello,

sorry but know I saw this you wrote

    "I see work -> mate & xfce4"

mate specifically is a fork of the original gnome2 , you can use this DE instead of gnome-fallback (or gnome-flashback).

Now the possibilities of a regression of aforementioned bug are higher (per my opinion).
