Nah, Qt4 is using the native Cocoa interface on OS X. X2go then tries to
start (if not already started) and to connect to the xserver on
localhost:6000 (which seems weird/wrong to me, why not via the UNIX
socket for instance? I guess I should try to change that.) and then it
should basically work.

However, on my system the X server is listening on port 6004 instead of
6000 (thus using displayPort 5?) - for whatever reason. Due to the
hardcoded connection settings in x2goclient, it won't be able to connect
to the server... but again, as I was about to fix it, it started working
again (probably the xserver restarted on displayport 0/port 6000), so I
lost the interest and tried getting the universal build setup first.

Oh alright, I can wait. But please do me a big favor: fetch
http://www.ionic.de/x2goclient-3.99.1.0-r2.dmg - I forgot to add i386
support in the x2goclient binary before, shame on me. r2 is now
featuring both x86 and x86_64 support.

Best regards,


Mihai
