It has been tested with Ubuntu Server 16.04, with the "regular" (non-nightly) Arctica repository. Everything else is still avaiting tests by volunteers like you. <code> # add the X2Go repo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/ppa # for Ubuntu apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keys.gnupg.net E1F958385BFE2B6E # for Debian echo 'deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian jessie main' >>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/x2go.list # for Debian # add the Arctica repo wget -qO - http://packages.arctica-project.org/archive.key | sudo apt-key add - echo "deb http://packages.arctica-project.org/ubuntu xenial main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arctica.list # for Ubuntu echo "deb http://packages.arctica-project.org/debian jessie main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arctica.list # for Debian # OR try the Arctica nightly repo echo "deb http://packages.arctica-project.org/ubuntu-nightly xenial main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arctica.list # for Ubuntu Nightly echo "deb http://packages.arctica-project.org/debian-nightly jessie main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arctica.list # for Debian Nightly # update the package list before installing anything apt-get update # update the base system to the current package versions # Download everything first, then upgrade, then dist-upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade -d -y && \ apt-get upgrade -y && \ apt-get dist-upgrade -y # Install X2Go packages, a minimal MATE Desktop, and Firefox as test application apt-get install -y \ x2goserver \ x2goserver-xsession \ x2gomatebindings \ mate-core \ mate-applets mate-menus \ mate-notification-daemon \ mate-screensaver \ libcanberra-pulse \ firefox apt-get install -y ubuntu-mate-themes # for Ubuntu apt-get install -y mate-themes # for Debian # add a user useradd -m -s /bin/bash <username> passwd <username> </code> On the X2GoServer, edit /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options: * Search for the String "xinerama", and when you encounter a line like this one, make sure there's the plus sign in front of "xinerama": ''X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=" +xinerama"'' * Search for the String "XFIXES", and when you encounter a line like this one, make sure there's the plus sign in front of "extension": ''X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=" +extension XFIXES"'' Also on the X2GoServer, verify that ''/usr/bin/x2goagent'' is a symlink pointing to ''/usr/bin/nxagent''. Next, **disable** XINERAMA in your X2GoClient's session profile(s). Note that you should also add the Arctica repo on the client where you wish to use X2GoClient, and run ''apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -d -y && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y'' on it. If you don't/can't do that (e.g. because you're running Windows or macOS on your client), connecting with X2GoClient 4.0.5.2 should still work, though you might not experience all the benefits of the new NX-Libs.
