To launch the app, search for Splashtop at the desktop and click on the icon.

Troubleshooting

Here are the steps to diagnose any issues with Splashtop.

  • After launching the app at the desktop and putting in your credentials, does it gray out the username and password?
    • If so, it means it logged in to Splashtop and it should be working. You should see your Amahi HDA in any Splashtop client you are logged in on and be able to connect.
    • If it's not greying out the username/password, then this needs to be diagnosed.
  • If it's not logging in, take a look at what is in this file:
  ~/.config/splashtop-streamer/SPLog.txt

and report on what it's in it. (use apaste to post it online and share the resulting in the IRC forums or support email).
