Description
Sharing [now supports xrdp](https://github.com/gershwin-desktop/gershwin-components/commit/6c9020e1286219d85a6dc0a4bb7097a1cb09bb4e) and I can connect from a Windows machine to xrdp, but launching the session fails. This likely requires xrdp configuration and/or modifications in `Gershwin.sh`.
`/etc/xrdp/startwm.sh` seems to execute `/etc/X11/Xsession` which in turn seems to fail to start the Gershwin session.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failed Windows-to-xrdp connection, then inspect /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh and the /etc/X11/Xsession path it invokes. Review Gershwin.sh for how the Gershwin session is launched. Done means an xrdp connection successfully starts a usable Gershwin session.
