Sorry for not replying sooner.  No, we're talking about the same
cursor.  "Hourglass-and-Pointer", not "Hourglass".

So while yes, one can use the UI during these 5 seconds, it
nevertheless is confusing to the user.  The initial reaction of the
average user is "Oh, that thing's busy, I should wait".  A
non-technical user will not differentiate between
"Hourglass-and-Pointer" and "Hourglass".

Since previous versions of X2GoClient did not exhibit this behavior, I
am expecting complaints about a sudden slow startup (from
non-technical users, that are not aware of the difference between
those two cursor types) when I roll this thing out.

Is there no way we can avoid this? Maybe start the background
processes and the reaper only when a session is in the startup phase,
and not immediately when x2goclient.exe start?
