Chrome Remote Desktop Controlling Separate Desktop












0















On my Windows computer when I accessed it through Chrome Remote Desktop it would show all of my active programs as if I was sitting down at my desk.
But now when I use CRD on my xubuntu computer none of my programs are open and Chrome isn't even signed in. I know that it is still the same computer because task manager shows the same things and my files are exactly the same. Here is a video demonstrating the issue.



I want to be able to test things on my phone without having to go home to get to my computer.



Is this how CRD works on Linux? Or am I doing something wrong? I feel like this is just a simple error. I have already tried using this guide, but it is outdated and doesn't work.
Any responses are appreciated.



Thanks,
djtravz
