Enhanced session not available on Ubuntu 20.04 about linux-vm-tools HOT 6 CLOSED

After working for several hours on solving this problem, here is a solution that works (at least for me).
My background: RDP client on Windows 10, Hyper V VM : Ubuntu 20.04 server.
Edit the file /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini
Modify the parameters as follows :
port = tcp: //: 3389
use_vsock = true
Then restart the xrdp service: sudo systemctl start xrdp
(don't forget to allow port 3389 in the ufw firewall if in use)

Running the script in that commit and a few reboots of the VM and host seem to have finally fixed it 👍 Thanks!

Please reopen the issue because the linked fix is still not merged and the Ubuntu 20.04 from the VM quick creation also doesn't work with enhanced session out of the box. Thanks!

For me both Ubuntu 20.10 from the VM gallery or what it's called and a manually installed Ubuntu 20.10 work when running the 20.10 script from the linked pull request.

I to set port = tcp: //: 3389 as above, but had to set use_vsock = false in order for it to work.
