Hmm, I know this problem. But I thought the bug was repaired. Are you
using the latest version?  In the past I did this:

vi /usr/bin/x2gostartagent
Direct after "x2goagent" on line 171 I've added "-dpi 96".

171c171
< LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$X2GO_LIB x2goagent  -$SESSION_TYPE -geometry
${X2GO_GEOMETRY} -name "X2GO-${SESSION_NAME}"  ${NX_AGENT}
2>${SESSION_DIR}/session.log &

Do this for more documentation:
/usr/lib/x2go/x2goagent -h

I have experiences with older versions of Nomachine NXlcient with FreeNX
what also uses NX, and my experience is that bigger moving things like
films will not be nice shown. But maybe NX has become better on this point.

Flash gives another problem (with older NX). Sometimes customers are
calling me that everything is very slow in the session. Other sessions
on the same server don't have that problem. This is always a flash
problem. I ask them to close all browser windows and the problem is
gone. They had a site with some flash open.

Another point about flash: I have heard that it uses much CPU on the
server. I have also heard that the (beta) 64-bit version is better then
the 32-bit version on this point.
