How to speed up Ubuntu, Remote Control generally and XRDP RDP particularly



In this tutorial video i demonstrate step by step how you can speed up Ubuntu LTS, so the main 3 of 18.04, 2.04 and 22.04. It should also speed up remote control packages like TeamViewer, NoMachine, VNC & RDP (a.k.a XRDP). It does this by tuning off the ubuntu animations. It then specifically looks at the XRDP package (The Linux version of RDP) by reducing the number of colors transmitted from over 4 billion per pixel to about 30000, a reduction of some 100.00 times. this is done by amending the main XRDP configuration file of
/etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini and halving the value for max_bpp. At which the machine is rebooted.
These changes work on a Local PC or even a VPS.
