- This happens because of a package that is available in Ubuntu, but not in Debian (not sure about other Linux distributions). The package is called ''kscreen''. If you encounter an X2Go session trying to launch KDE and this KDE session won't
resize properly to your client-side screen or session window size, simply remove the ''kscreen'' package from your X2Go Server.

+ In general, this is not a bug. Using two applications that handle display
+ resolution is not supported, as it can lead to many unexpectable situations and
+ race conditions.
+ 
+ On machines that act as X2Go Server only, it may make sense removing the kscreen package completely. This, however, may have an effect on your X2Go server's plug'n'play capabilities. The ''kscreen'' package handles hotplugging of display hardware. So if your X2Go Server machine is used locally, as well as via X2Go, consider well, if it is ok to remove that package or not.
+ 
+ For X2Go we suggest disabling the KScreen KDED module (System Settings ->
+ Startup and Shutdown ->
Service Manager, uncheck "KScreen 2") in the user's profile, since X2Go
+ handles resolution switches for you. To manually change output settings (rotation, enabling/disabling outputs etc) use the KScreen KCM.

  ==== How do I customize font sizes in X2Go sessions? ====
  
  Some people have asked for font size customizations in X2Go session windows. Please use the DPI value in the session setup to customize font sizes within your X2Go sessions:
