For what it is worth, here is a thread from the Debian users mail list
where someone reports having difficulty finding x2goserver - John

Thanks everyone very much for your quick responses.

John- For some reason I couldn't find the x2go server app, even after
following their directions for editing my sources.list, keys, etc. I could
only find the client software, not sure why...

So I decided to go with teamviewer as recommended by The Ace. Easy to
install and fast to use.

I also want to try x11vnc sometime Andrei, soon perhaps...
