[X2Go-User] X2Go crash from Mac/MATE to Fedora 25 w NIS user getting x2gostartagent: blocking creation of agent's keyboard file

[Norman Gaywood]

This might be the update to Mesa in Fedora

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1427174

A lot of programs won't start in my XFCE desktop under x2go. Even
xfce4-terminal

The temporary fix is to downgrade mesa:

dnf downgrade mesa-libGL --allowerasing
