<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I could never get two full screen windows working at the same time. The way Windows handles true full screen windows it does not seem possible to run two at the same time, I could be wrong though. To get it

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I am using a setup where on a Windows PC I have the usual Windows interface on the left<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">screen, and on the right screen I want fullscreen X2Go client. This has worked OK in the past<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">on a Windows Vista PC with an X2Go version from 2014.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">For obvious reasons the PC has since been replaced and I have installed more recent X2Go software<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">and from then on it fails to work like it did before.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I have selected to use full screen on monitor 2 in the past, and it used the full display area,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">although it always started in a somewhat erratic way. It first opened a window on the<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">second screen, then told the Linux system the display size had changed, then immediately<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">changed it to full screen and sent another display size update. This sometimes confused the<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Linux window manager, resulting in funny window placement, but otherwise it worked OK.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">On the new system, first with Windows 7 and now with Windows 8, and with X2Go version<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">4.0.5.0 at first and now 4.1.0.0, I cannot get it to work anymore. No matter if I select the<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">full screen mode or not, it always opens the Linux screen in a window, and on the left screen.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I have to drag it to the right, and then click the “full screen window” widget, it then changes<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">to nearly-full-screen (there are no window borders but there is a title bar with the usual widgets).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I have experimented with the -multiwindows and -multimonitors flags as suggested in a bug<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">tracking item, but without the desired result. I also experienced another bug while trying<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">this: when the settings for the X server are invalid, the program bombs out with an alert<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">that the settings are invalid and I need to check my configuration, but then it is no longer<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">possible to change the configuration because the program won’t stay running. Fortunately<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I had an image backup of the system made just before I started that experiment.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Please advise what to do next...<o:p></o:p></span></p>
