Hello everyone!

Since the old rdesktop frontend only worked intermittently, I've written a new one! It's called pyrdesktop, and it's available in diablo and chinook extras. Features include: sound, multiple remote desktop profiles, the ability to toggle almost all command line options. The current version is 1.5.0-2.
Here's a nice big green install button (now in diablo and chinook extras:

And, here's some screenshots:



Please report bugs and feature requests here, or at the rdesktop garage page. This is still a work-in-progress, so stay tuned for updates!

Changelog:
1.5.0-6
-- Removed dbus imports... again...
1.5.0-5
-- Fixed issue with python-launcher
1.5.0-4
-- Fixed to use python-launcher
-- Removed dbus imports
-- Fixed dependencies
1.5.0-2
-- Threading! The gui will stay open after a rdesktop session is opened.
-- Auto-reconnect! With a countdown dialog! Say cancel within 6 seconds, and it won't auto-reconnect. Say ok, and it will reconnect immediately.
-- Connection detection (that sounds pretty cool...) If you try to open a session and you're not connected to the internet, your device will attempt to connect.
-- Auto-load last opened profile. Close the gui, reopen it, and whichever profile you had opened will reopen automagically!
-- Fixed error code reporting.
-- NOTE: some of these changes are still a bit experimental. I tested as much as I could, but PLEASE report any bugs you find!
