[X2go-dev] x2goclient authentication error!

[Paul Clark]

Partly solved on Mac. Under X11 Preferences I also needed to tick "Allow connections for network clients". For NoMachine NX I only needed to tick "Authenticate connections".

Now I'm getting the infamous missing font problem:

Error: Aborting session with 'Could not open default font 'fixed''.

Any known solution?

Cheers,

Paul.
