sound on x2gothinclient
by Philipp Huebner 04 Jul '11

04 Jul '11

Hi, following the manual for Debian Lenny I have set up a x2gothinclient, but I can't get the sound to work. Any hints how to debug this problem? alsa recognizes the soundcard, it is supportet by the running linux kernel. Is it correct that there is not a single pulseaudio package installed inside the chroot? Regards, -- .''`.

by Heiko Baumann 29 Jun '11

Hello, is there a way to use x2goclient with ssh-agent(1)? i am using ssh-agent with my etoken to login via nxclient on some machines. is this possible with x2goclient? i've started x2goclient from the same shell where a ssh login to the remote server worked with agent auth. but x2goclient seems not to use the running ssh-agent. thanks for any help. heiko

getting features inside neatx/freenx instead of developing something different
by Eli K. 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Hello x2go list, I've added one of my not so important mail accounts to this list to share my opinion about nx based development in the future. I don't like mailing lists because they only collect spam (to add my opinion to a already discussed topic). I've read some of the mesages here and I've taken a look to this project. I really don't think this is a good idea to work on a not compatible nx server. There are already enough free servers and clients in the world and we all should try to save a amount of compatibility to all projects. There is also a plugin for mozilla (moznx) so you won't need to develop a own. Although i like the idea of the file transport and print module of x2go (pulseaudio too is already possible with opennx). If you would change to python, i would help you to get things to work with neatx/freenx. Then you too would have no problem with the packaging, because everything you need is already done. What do you think about at minimum getting those interesting features build up in external programms, so you can use it with all nx servers (or even vncs)? eli

Problems on Debian Squeeze
by John A. Sullivan III 08 Jul '10

08 Jul '10

Is there any special magic to running X2Go on Debian Squeeze? We upgraded an x2goserver to Squeeze from Lenny and we can no longer connect. The X2Go client just says connecting. We can see the ssh sessions are established and it looks like x2gostartagent is running. The database is set up and running. The users are members of x2gousers, fuse, various pulse groups. We changed the default shell from dash to bash as, if I recall correctly, there are functions in the X2Go bash scripts that are not supported in dash. We reinstalled X2Go after remembering that. We deleted all the old .Xauthority files. We double-checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config to ensure we had X11 Forwarding enabled. We can run X apps like xterm and kate via an ssh connection. I'm not entirely sure where to look next without major troubleshooting. Is anyone using X2Go on Squeeze successfully? Thanks - John

Single application gets suspended with mouse move and click on window decoration
by Max Chao 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi all, I have a weird issue with x2go on Lucid in single application mode. Whenever I start an application and move mouse and click on the window decoration, the client gets disappeared. Seems session gets suspended on the client side. I can resume it late. But it will suspended again if I move mouse and click on the window decoration again. After some investigation, I find that when I move mouse and click on the window decoration, x2gosuspend-agent was called. So I comment the "export NX_CLIENT=/usr/bin/x2gosuspend-agent" in x2gostartagent. The issue disappear. I also check the nxcomp source code, find that client path will point to "/usr/NX/bin/nxclient" if NX_CLIENT environment is not set, which confuse me. My questions is what is the usage of NX_CLIENT? Why set it as x2gosuspend-agent? dpkg -l nxcomp nxproxy x2goserver x2goagent ii nxcomp 3.4.0-1-1 NX compression library ii nxproxy 3.4.0-2-1 NX compression proxy ii x2goagent 3.4.0-3-1 Special NX-ized client, was developed by NoMachine to handle X sessions ii x2goserver 3.0.1-5 x2goserver (daemon and tools) Thanks! Max

x2goplugin test sites
by Mike Gabriel 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Sorry, the former mail had the wrong subject line... Hi List, I am thinking about setting up a public x2goplugin test site. This test site needs some features. o accessible from everywhere on the internet o no access to the internet (local iptables, blocking outgoing connections) o ssh key auto-login (username x2gotest) o disposable homes - on login generate homedir-name (/home/x2gotest.<some-id>) - create /home/x2gotest.<some-id> from pre-configured skel (pam_mkhomedir) - on logout remove /home/x2gotest.<some-id> o x2go session timeouts (5min) o allow simultaneous sessions (limit number of simultaneous sessions) o ... (anything forgotten) If any of you can contribute to any of these aspects or add security thoughts to the above list, please do so. My questions: o when is the best moment to rename the home dir to a session individual name? o where can I hook into the logout x2go process to remove the deprecated home dir? o does x2go support session timeouts natively? o can x2go limit the number of allowed simultaneous sessions?
