<div id="projectbrief">Remmina is a remote desktop client written in GTK+, aiming to be useful for system administrators and travellers, who need to work with lots of remote computers in front of either large monitors or tiny netbooks. Remmina supports multiple network protocols in an integrated and consistent user interface. Currently RDP, VNC, NX, XDMCP and SSH are supported.</div>

GtkSocket makes use of the xembed protocol, which is not available under Wayland. If your system is running XWayland you can try to workaround the problem by running remmina with the environment variable GDK_BACKEND set to x11. For example in a terminal, after closing all running instances of remmina, you can start remmina with `GDK_BACKEND=x11 remmina`.</div></div><!-- fragment --></div><!-- contents -->
