keyboard not working quite right in gtk client...
by Douglas M. Stanley 13 Sep '09

13 Sep '09

Hello list, I appologize ahead of time if this has already been brought up, but I couldn't find anything about this yet. I recently set up x2go in a xen guest, and when I try to connect to it with the gtk client, the keyboard isn't right. Everything seems to work, except the arrow keys. If I turn numlock on/off, then the arrows on the keypad seem to work, but not the normal arrow keys. I've tried everything I can think of to set the keyboard both on the client and on the actual host. Everything is set to 105key qwerty US, but the arrow keys still don't work. The maemo client using the directional pad seemed to work fine simulating the arrow keys, so I'm not sure if it would work with the QT client or not as I haven't tried that client yet. Anyone else run into this issue yet? It may very well be due to the machine running under xen, so I'm not sure if anyone else is doing something similar or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Doug

Password in plain text!?!?!?
by Alexander.Kuchler＠pruftechnik.com 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Dear group, today I figured out you are saving the password entered during the startup of the session in plain text in C:\Documents\%User%\.x2go\ssh\. And not even delete it after closing the session.. You can not be serious!? Especially when knowing you are promoting X2Go for schools etc. where different people might access the same terminals this is not only dangerous but breakneck. Yours, Alexander

Problems with the GTK-client
by Paul van der Vlis 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Hello, I have some problems with the GTK-client. The KDE client works fine, and the GTK client does work fine as another user on the same machine. I have purged and reinstalled the gtk-client and I removed the config-data with: gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/x2goclient (as the user where the problems are). But it does not help. When I try to start a session everything works fine, I only see no session. When I start the client again, I can see a running session, I cannot kill that session with the GTK client, but I can kill that session with the KDE client. I don't know how to fix this problem. I will add the complete information from the file .xsessionerrors. The interesting part (I think) is: -------- debug1: Local forwarding listening on 127.0.0.1 port 30049. bind: Address already in use debug1: Local forwarding listening on ::1 port 30049. bind: Address already in use channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 30049 Could not request local forwarding. debug1: Requesting no-more-sessions(a)openssh.com -------- With regards, Paul van der Vlis.

Problems after installing x2go 3.01
by Paul van der Vlis 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Hello, I installed x2go 3.01 (a beta) with dates from 16-22 juli. First everything worked fine and some bugs where gone, like the keyboard-bug. I installed "x2goserver-home" too. But now x2go does not work anymore. I cannot get a connection. Maybe it was after I executed by mistake this script: /usr/bin/x2gostartagent. I rebooted the machine, the problem is not gone. It is difficult to copy some of the error-messages of the KDE-client because they are gone very fast, but I saw this kind of things while connecting to localhost: Error: Failure negotiating the session in stage '7'. Error: Wrong version or invalid session authentication cookie. Session: Terminating session at 'Thu Jul 30 09:48:31 2009'. Session: Session terminated at 'Thu Jul 30 09:48:31 2009'. or: Info: Using ZLIB data compression 1/1/32. Info: Using ZLIB stream compression 4/4. Info: No suitable cache file found. Info: Forwarding X11 connections to display ':0.0'. Session: Session started at 'Thu Jul 30 09:51:00 2009'. Warning: Protocol mismatch or no X authentication data. or: (...) reaching a usable state. Info: This can be due to the local X server refusing access to the client. Info: Please check authorization provided by the remote X application. Session: Session terminated at 'Thu Jul 30 09:53:13 2009'. When I connect from a laptop with the GTK-client I get an error: cat /home/paul/.x2go/C-.../cmdoutput file does not excist. Is there a better way to get the log? Is there a way to let the server log? Maybe it is important to tell that I have a multiseat X setup here, but before x2go did work without problem. (A multseat setup is a computer what can be used by more then one person. In my situation there are 2 monitors, 2 keyboards, 2 mouses. You can configure it in gdm.conf and xorg.conf.) With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- http://www.vandervlis.nl/

Fullscreen mode and switching applications
by Alexander.Kuchler＠pruftechnik.com 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Dear all, I installed X2Go client for windows V 3.00-1. When opening a session in fullscreen mode it's not possible to switch to any other windows application by pressing [Alt]-[Tab]. Pressing this combination presents the Window Taskswitch Dialog but selecting another application is doing nothing. The X2Go Session stays in the foreground. Is there any other possiblity to switch the active window? Best regards, Alexander Kuchler

Problem with GTK client
by Paul van der Vlis 29 Jul '09

29 Jul '09

Hello list, I have a problem with the GTK client on one of my machines, the KDE client works fine. And the GTK client did work fine before. When I start a connection with the GTK client the session is not visible. I see no session. But there is a session started. Reinstalling the client (using "--purge"), does not help. Removing the configuration in gconf does not help. This is what I did: gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/x2goclient Killing the sessions with the KDE-client or with a GTK-client from another machine does not help. What can I do to make it work again? With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- http://www.vandervlis.nl/

this mailinglist...
by Heinz-M. Graesing 27 Jul '09

27 Jul '09

Hello mailinglist members, I don't know why but some time ago this mailinglist stopped delivering mails to my account. I've added me again to the list so now I can answer your questions and tell you about the future of x2go. Of cause we are interested in helping english speaking x2go users - somehow they mainly have choosen this mailing list. Please keep on using this list if you prefer mailing lists instead of a forum (I really like mailing lists too). If anybody is visiting Linuxtag in Berlin this month: we'll share a booth with skolelinux, olpc and linux4afrika. A recent topic of the mailing list was the possibility to use x2goclient on OpenSuSE. Alex has made an tar.gz to compile x2goclient (GTK Version) on openSuSE11: http://www.x2go.org/opensuse11/ This should help you to compile x2goclient for openSuSE. A further topic was using x2go on ubuntu * : We've tried to get all wishes of the ubuntu community into a speciallized version, which did not contain any qt or kde dependency and was using the unpatched versions of the nx libraries. This version (available on launchpad) could be installed without any configuration, but it was not possible to use the multiserver/ldap features. We've stopped to develop this special version, but our lenny packages are compatible with ubuntu 9.04. So please use the actual lenny repository, import the database and add your user to the group "x2gousers" - this should work and you'll have all new client features. I'll keep on reading the archive of this group and answer further questions.

This will be released soon and will contain further features like rdp tunneling (configuration inside x2goclient), desktop icon generation assistant and lxde support. There will also be a new installation option called "x2goserver-one (One Node Edition". This option will be released as metapackage, which will be configuring x2goserver automatically. In this option SQLight instead of Postgresql will be used. So please be patient, we'll try to release the new version soon!

Keyboard problem
by Paul van der Vlis 24 Jul '09

24 Jul '09

Hello, I have this problem: http://www.nomachine.com/tr/view.php?id=TR11F02131 In short: some keys are incorrectly mapped (like arrow up) and others don't work (like arrow left). My client and server are both Debian Lenny (I am connecting to localhost at the moment). I need the evdev driver for keyboards en mouses. Not sure if Lenny uses this driver by default (the default is an empty xorg.conf). Nomachine says the problem is gone in nxnode 3.3.0-11, but so far I see x2go uses nxnode version 3.3.0-3. This is also interesting information about this item: https://bugs.launchpad.net/freenx-server/+bug/289918 On my machine I run both FreeNX and X2go. I am not 100% sure this is no problem. With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- http://www.vandervlis.nl/
