Use this Linux guide to install RustDesk on major distributions, review Wayland and login-screen limitations, and troubleshoot common permission issues such as SELinux policy blocks.
|
|
|
|
## Which Linux package should you use?
|
|
|
|
| Situation | Best package |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| Ubuntu or Debian-based systems | `.deb` |
|
|
| Fedora or CentOS-based systems | `.rpm` |
|
|
| Arch Linux or Manjaro | `.pkg.tar.zst` |
|
|
| openSUSE | SUSE-specific `.rpm` |
|
|
| Portable single-file usage | `AppImage` |
|
|
| Sandboxed desktop install | `Flatpak` |
|
|
|
|
## Linux quick answers
|
|
|
|
- Use the native package for your distribution when possible.
|
|
- Wayland support is experimental since RustDesk `1.2.0`.
|
|
- Remote access to the login screen still requires X11.
|
|
- If SELinux is enforced and you see `avc: denied`, apply the RustDesk SELinux policy guidance.

## ~~X11 Required~~

|
|
|
|
RustDesk now has experimental Wayland support since version 1.2.0.

|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
#WaylandEnable=false
