What happens when you put ThinLinc + VirtualGL and XRDP + VirtualGL through the same test?

In this short demo, Harjinder compares both on the same AlmaLinux 9.8 VDA, using the same settings and the UNIGINE Superposition 1.1 benchmark. The test setup includes an NVIDIA P4000 GPU, VirtualGL 3.1.4, XCP-ng, and ThinLinc 4.21 Beta. It’s a great example of the hands-on testing and experimentation happening in the ThinLinc Community.

Thanks for sharing your findings, Harjinder!

It’s always great to see ThinLinc in the hands of people who know how to put technology to the test.

A big thank-you to Karl Fischer, Chief Technology Officer, and Calwyn Baldwin, Technical Consultant at Obsidian Systems, for putting together this insightful demonstration and showing how ThinLinc can deliver Linux workloads across different endpoints while supporting a resilient, highly available infrastructure.

We’re also grateful to the entire Obsidian Systems team for bringing this collaboration to life and exploring what’s possible with ThinLinc, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Stratus ztC Edge.

Another piece of ThinLinc 4.21.0 is all about keeping up with modern ARM hardware.

As ARM systems have moved decisively to 64-bit, the old 32-bit ThinLinc client increasingly required compatibility libraries that weren’t always available or reliable. That changes with 4.21.0.

The release introduces a native 64-bit ARM client that installs and runs without any extra setup. The Raspberry Pi 5 is one example of hardware that benefits from this change.

And if you’re following our recent ARM64 updates, this is the client side. Native ThinLinc Server support for ARM64 is a separate project currently under active development.

Every great platform starts with a simple problem to solve.

In this clip, Alan Chalker shares how Open OnDemand evolved from an internal idea into a global open-source community used by more than 2,100 sites worldwide.

Another piece of ThinLinc 4.21.0 is about control.

Administrators can now define mandatory settings on managed endpoint devices. Once configured, these settings cannot be changed by the user.

Why does that matter?

It helps organizations enforce specific configurations, such as automatically closing the ThinLinc client when a smart card is removed, or restricting connections to a single predefined ThinLinc server.

More control for admins. Fewer settings to worry about for users.

And that’s just another piece of what’s inside 4.21.0. 👀

35 years ago, Linux started as “just a hobby” and grew into something that powers ideas around the world. 🐧

Today, we're proud to help keep those ideas within reach by bringing Linux desktops and applications to people wherever they need them.

Happy birthday, Linux!

Samuel Mannehed recently shared an update on the ThinLinc Community: the foundational work for native ThinLinc Server support on ARM64 is complete, and active development is now underway.

There’s no release timeline to share yet. But we’re already looking ahead — and we want to hear from the people who could put it to the test. As Robert Henschel points out, HPC centers in particular are encouraged to reach out for early testing.

Are you working with ARM64? Tell us about your hardware, Linux distribution, and use case, and whether you’d be interested in joining early testing.

You’ve heard about ThinLinc 4.21.0.
But have you seen what’s really inside?

🧩 Let’s start with login experience.

ThinLinc Web Access now supports OpenID Connect, enabling organizations to integrate ThinLinc with identity and access management solutions such as Microsoft Entra ID or Keycloak.

The result? Users can log in using the same credentials and login flow they already use across their organization, while administrators get more control over authentication policies.

And that’s just one of the changes inside 4.21.0. Discover the full ThinLinc 4.21.0 release: https://www.cendio.com/thinlinc/docs/relnotes/?version=4.21.0
