1 Install XRDP
Install XRDP and TigerVNC.
$ sudo apt install -y xrdp tigervnc-standalone-server $ sudo systemctl enable xrdp
Change default session type to Xvnc.

1.1 Avoid Authentication Require dialog
After connecting via XRDP, Authentication Require dialog for Flatpak update will be displayed.
If you feel troublesome to respond to Authentication Require dialog, you can emit responce with creating PolicyKit rules which will reject Flatpak update (Or allow sudo group user to Flatpak update).
$ cat <<EOF | \ sudo tee /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/xrdp-flatpak.pkla [Netowrkmanager] Identity=unix-user:* Action=org.freedesktop.Flatpak.appstream-update ResultAny=no ResultInactive=no ResultActive=yes EOF $ sudo systemctl restart polkit
