Package: x2goserver
Version: 4.0.1.15
Severity: normal
The problem appears to be that the current version of source & binary
package "gnome-session", 3.12.1-3 (in both jessie and sid), checks for
hardware 3D acceleration even when launching GNOME flashback session,
which does not require acceleration.
There is probably also a problem with the composite extension not
being available (or not being new enough.)
x2goserver will probably need to pass an argument like
"--disable-acceleration-check" to gnome-session, once that argument is
implemented by gnome-session. So I figured I'd report this bug against
x2goserver.

Debian bug: Couldn't find one
Mike#1, how do you propose we word this bug in the Debian BTS? Do you
want me to submit it or, should you? You are a DD after all.
BTW, the current version of gnome-session-flashback (source package:
gnome-panel) is:
jessie: 3.8.1-1
sid: 3.8.1-2

Dear Mike,
You can find useful information on libssh's failure to build below
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.audio.csound.devel/27287
It seems that libssh's 0.6.3 pthread.c was written against
an aging pthread header, so I've attached a patch.
You can also try solving the problem the other way around
(which is not recommended) just to see what happens.
I have included a patch for mingw32 that restores the obsolete structure.
If you are brave enough to test it, remember not to apply (to un-patch) the
first patch.
The two patches are mutually exclusive.

Hi,
it looks like the nx-libs git tree starts with the files contained in nomachines' source release
nx-X11-3.1.0-1.tar.gz (and accompanied source tarballs).
I have several source tarballs that have been released before that, e.g.:
nx-X11-1.3.0-6.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.3.1-12.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.3.2-8.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.3.2-9.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.4.0-10.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.4.0-1.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.4.0-3.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.4.0-4.tar.gz

nx-X11-1.5.0-18.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.5.0-21.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.5.0-4.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.5.0-7.tar.gz
nx-X11-1.5.0-9.tar.gz
nx-X11-2.0.0-31.tar.gz
nx-X11-2.1.0-2.tar.gz
nx-X11-2.1.0-3.tar.gz
nx-X11-3.0.0-35.tar.gz
nx-X11-3.0.0-37.tar.gz
(+ accompanied tarballs. See attachment for full list).
I think these should also be merged into the git tree for reference. What do you think?

Hi,
I'd like to request an update of libssh to version 0.6.x for the
Windows build of the X2Go Client software.
The current Windows builds which are shipped with libssh-0.5.5 have a
connection problem with hpn-enabled openssh servers [1].
We at Gentoo already faced the same problem a while ago [2].
The problem looks like this:
After a successful login with libssh-0.5.x to the hpn-enabled
openssh server the connection just hangs. There's no further data being
transferred from or to the server. This results in the X2Go Client to
hang as well.
After upgrading libssh to version 0.6.x the problem disappears.

Kind regards

Control: retitle -1 reintroduce zlib support for libssh in X2Go Client
for Windows
History:
With libssh-0.5.2 (built by the KDE Windows project), zlib support was included:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh/libssh-x86-ming…
It used "libz.dll" 1.2.7
With libssh-0.5.5 (built by Alex), zlib support was not included:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh/libssh-with-pag…
Now with libssh-0.6.3 (built by me), zlib support was reintroduced.
"zlib1.dll" 1.2.3 was already being shipped by us.
It was linked against the headers for 1.2.8.
What I will do:
I will update zlib1.dll to 1.2.8. 1.2.3 does not lack any security
updates. However it isn't supported, only the latest 1.2.x release is.
http://www.zlib.net/http://zlib.net/zlib128-dll.zip
Also, it appears that nothing was using libz.dll since the upgrade to
libssh-0.5.5, and that nothing was using zlib1.dll until the upgrade
to libssh-0.6.3. Therefore, I will delete libz.dll.
