Remmina used to come with RDP and VNC options, now they are plugins.

After you install the plugins it's not enough to just close and reopen remmina. I think something gets left open, so you may need to kill a task or simply reboot.

ps -A | grep remmina
4853 ?        00:01:15 remmina
kill 4853   #the process ID from above

So here's how to get everything going:

  1. to install remmina
sudo apt-get install remmina
  1. get the other mode plugins
sudo apt-get install remmina-plugin-vnc
sudo apt-get install remmina-plugin-rdp
  1. probably not needed
sudo apt-get install freerdp
sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev

FYI: the plugins install to /usr/lib/remmina/plugins
