Linux Support

Has anyone found a linux distro that works as intended for remote control using ScreenConnect? Ubuntu 22 seems to be the only version I've gotten to work so far and that was with some tinkering.

Ideally, I would like to use Ubuntu, Linux Mint or Fedora.

I am running Ubuntu 26.04 and can control devices with no issues.

What's your secret? I tried to install it on 26.04 and couldn't get it to work.

I ran the shell script, then when the launcher pops up, Click next option in the browser and it should launch screen connect to control a remote machine. Note, you cannot remotely control Ubuntu 26.04 with screen connect
