WUBI installed Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS with xRDP and X11RDP

1. Install Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS with WUBI.

2. Dual-Boot the WUBI installed Ubuntu and configure it
as your needs. You should disable all visual effects
and choose a one color background.

4. Install the xRDP package with Synaptics.faiL

5. Download and install the version 0.6 DEB packages for xRDP and X11RDP
(thanks to Gustavo Homem, Angulo Solid and Jay Sorg for the DEB packages,
look at Xrdp-devel) from:

http://server1.xrdp.org/xrdp/v0.6/

6. Edit as root user the /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini file, and
change the standard RDP port from 3389 into 3390.

7. Edit as root user the /etc/fstab file and add the
lines for the coLinux drives:

# Mount points under coLinux
/dev/cobd0 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/cobd1 none swap sw 0 0

8. Create at the user home directory an empty .Xauthority
file.

9. As user open a terminal and do the following commands:

touch ~/.Xauthority
chmod 600 ~/.Xauthority

10. Use the Ubuntu restart and boot the PC into Windows.

11. Install coLinux with the slirp connection, but without
downloading a coLinux image and build a config file for
coLinux as:

kernel=vmlinux
mem=256
cobd0=v:\ubuntu\disks\root.disk
cobd1=v:\ubuntu\disks\swap.disk
root=/dev/cobd0 noplymouth text
eth0=slirp,00:FF:75:39:D3:C1,tcp:3390:3390

The drive and path (v:\ubuntu\disks) points to the WUBI
installed disk images. The boot paramter noplymouth and
text are important to start Ubuntu with coLinux.

12. Just you can install the coLinux driver and start coLinux
with the coLinux config file.


13. Run the Microsoft Remote-Dektop-Connection (mstsc.exe)
and use as the computer name/address the 127.0.0.1:3390
IP-address with the RDP port, the Ubuntu user name as
user/login name and the Ubuntu user password for the
connection.

That's all to get a with WUBI installed dual-bootable Ubuntu
installation running with coLinux. You can use both to run
Ubuntu, dual-booting or coLinux with the same disk images!
