Hi Stéphane, hi x2go-dev-list, @x2go-dev-ML: this discussion about using python-x2go in Ubuntu's Software Center started as a private mail from Stéphane to me and I requested making it public which he granted (THANKS!). @Stéphane: could you resend your reply to the list as well? THANKS!

If you use another event handler in combination with python-gevent you have to call a gevent.sleep every few milliseconds.

Yes, do so!!! Very welcome!!! If it turns out that you will have quite a few patches to add we can also discuss direct access to our Git site. From our Git we build nightly packages on Launchpad, I have just kicked that off today... http://launchpad.net/~x2go > Thanks for the great software! Thanks for considering its usage!!! Note, that the whole X2go project is moving towards AGPL soon. Will that be a problem for you and your project context?

x2go client 3.01.18 crashing
by --[ UxBoD ]-- 12 May '11

Hi, Has anybody experienced, under Windows XP, the latest client crashing when attempting to print ? On a clients computer the x2go print dialogue box pops up but if I try either to open the PDF in viewer or cancel it straight away terminates the connection to the server and the whole x2go client crashes leaving sshd.exe and pulseaudio.exe running in TaskManager. -- Thanks, Phil

Hi devs, I have added python-x2go & co. to our x2go ppa on Launchpad. If everythings works out fine, there will be nightly builds of pyhoca-gui, pyhoca-cli and python-x2go available on Launchpad in a couple of hours...

x2go with Gnome 3 ?
by John Williams 05 May '11

05 May '11

Has anyone successfully run x2goserver(-one) with Gnome 3 ? I just upgraded my Archlinux system to Gnome 3, and x2goserver-one stopped working with Gnome. It gave a message about hardware not being suitable and it is reverting to gnome fallback. Unfortunately, it seems it was a one-time message, but I cannot get the message back, otherwise I would post the exact error message. What happens is that I end up with an x2go session with a plain desktop and a couple menus of apps, and that is all. If no one has gotten x2go working with Gnome 3, can anyone suggest where I need to start looking to solve the problem? I don't really know where to start. I already tried /usr/bin/gnome-session as a custom command from the x2go client, but that made no difference, and now I am stuck on what to look at to troubleshoot the problem.

Ubuntu/Debian Try-Out Repositories for X2go packages from Git
by Mike Gabriel 03 May '11

03 May '11

Hi there, X2go Git ======== as many of you might have realized X2go development has moved to Git based development. The Git development site can be found here: http://git.x2go.org Not all X2go packages are available in this Git repository, but we will move more and more packages there whenever we (or you) think that work on it should be continued in Git. We are very happy about people contributing coding work at this point. Projects available as Git projects on git.x2go.org are nightly-built for Ubuntu GNU/Linux (as Moritz has announced a couple of days ago). Thx to Reinhard+Moritz for this...: https://launchpad.net/~x2go/+archive/ppa Ubuntu Packages for Trying-Out X2go =============== So, for Ubuntu we currently _only_ have nightly builds. These nightly builds are for testing purposes during development only. Use them at your own risk or rather do not use them without discussing the state of code on this mailing list first. Nightly-builds might not be stable every once in a while. They are built directly from the X2go Git repos -- no matter how broken the code there might be... Currently, you are lucky, to my knowledge all packages build and install well. We lately have started a discussion if there should be packages at our Launchpad ppa that reflect a rather ,,stable'' state opposed to the nightly-builds. I think we should continue this discussion... Debian Packages for Trying-Out X2go =============== For Debian I have set up a new reprepro package repository at this URL over the weekend: http://code.x2go.org/debian Preferrably, the URL will be renamed to: http://packages.x2go.org/debian ...but I need a DNS entry from Heinz for that. (PING!) On http://code.x2go.org/debian we have to component areas: ,,main'' and ,,heuler''. main: packages reflecting the Git-tag ,,build-main'' (refer to individual projects on git.x2go.org) heuler: nightly-builds (not quite yet, currently I have to start the build process manually) Notes on ,,main'': Packages in the main area we consider as relatively stable. As long as X2go is not available in Debian itself, you probably might try those. Notes on ,,heuler'': you do _NOT_ want to use nightly-builds for your systems, especially not for production systems. These nightly-builds (cf. Ubuntu nightly-builds) are for developmental testing only. The heuler repos is/will be really experimental stuff. Please keep that in mind. BUILDING PROCESS ================= All packages in the new Debian package repos (similar to Launchpad for Ubuntu) get built against clean Debian chroots. They are built with qemubuilder (a pbuilder/cowbuilder derivative). We currently support i386 and amd64 architectures for Debian only. For testing, we currently only need those architectures. If there is need for other archs like powerpc, armel, ... please let us know. We may consider to build the packages in ,,main'' area for these not so common archictectures, too, if there is a need for that (I have never tested if they work on those archs, though). As they are a couple of open issues around package building, I will send a couple of subsequent mails, touching those issues, so stay tuned... light+love, Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

x2go TCE development
by Mike Gabriel 03 May '11

03 May '11

Hi Morty, I will have time to work on the X2go TCE environment tomorrow. We are currently setting up a Skolelinux Demo School that shall also be able to test the X2go TCE for thin clients. Will it be OK, if I work on the tmpfs branch you started recently? Or shall I create a new branch?

Hi Reinhard, hi all, On So 01 Mai 2011 22:08:35 CEST Reinhard Tartler wrote: > The other way round, namely installing the debian packages on ubuntu > systems, has been the recommended distribution method for ubuntu users > for years. Yepp. > [...] About the named details around dependencies you are absolutely right. It is no problem to install Ubuntu lucid packages on Debian squeeze. They should run out-of-the-box. But still: my personal intention about having packages for Debian _and_ Ubuntu at hand is to reduce the questionmarks on the users' side. o you run Ubuntu -> use the x2go ppa o you run Debian -> install from packages.x2go.org/debian. I know that Heinz used to get flooded with personal mails that exactly have pointed to this question: I am using Ubuntu, but I can only see packages for Debian lenny, what shall I do? Or: I use Deb squeeze, but there are only lenny packages... ??? etc.pp. We currently have nightly-built packages available for all current versions of Ubuntu and Debian. These nightly-builds are for developmental testing only. http://wiki.x2go.org/nightly-built_packages_debian_ubuntu For Debian we also have ,,stable'' packages (main area on packages.x2go.org/debian) http://wiki.x2go.org/adding_the_x2go_repository_debian and we should also provide similar packages for Ubuntu, too, in a separate ppa. These are for the users. As long as X2go is not included in Debian (and therefore not in Ubuntu), our main objective around packaging should be providing stable packages to our current user community (I presume that the majority of current X2go users use Debian/Ubuntu). Once X2go is in Debian I would like to reduce package building to nightly builds only, again (speaking for the project internal Debian packaging). Again, I quite like having nightly builds for Debian and Ubuntu. Another current goal is to make X2go code as generic as possible so that people who want to package X2go for other distros may do this at more ease as currently possible (add Makefiles to all packages -> TODO Mike, create tarball releases directly from Git). http://wiki.x2go.org/tarball_releases_of_x2go Note: the packaging for .deb-based systems has two reasons: 1. continue to provide X2go to the current user community until we have X2go in Debian (and conclusively in Ubuntu) 2. developmental testing The first aspect may disappear once the Debian packaging team has started its work. The second aspect we will probably continue ,,forever'' out of our own interests.

The only problem I see is that the Git server currently does not (by policy) accept merge commits. What command sequence would you suggest to update the content of a build-main branch (e.g. with commits from master) without conflicting with merge commits?

Build-Server
by Mike Gabriel 29 Apr '11

29 Apr '11

Hi Morty, Reinhard, Arw, Morty mentioned recently (I think in a Jabber session) that there is a build-server available at Uni Erlangen. Will it be possible to install qemubuilder on that system and use it for building X2go packages? I volunteer to do that, the qemubuilder can be used for other build jobs as well... I have looked at the different systems available for package building and I liked qemubuilder best. However, qemubuilder does only build in kvm-mode on native systems (that is: not on already virtualized systems). In Intel-based kvm-VMs it can not access the VT technology of the CPU (so-called VT nesting). However, AMD Pacifica CPUs support KVM nesting (never tried it out, though). @Morty: if you run VMs on an AMD CPU that would also be great and functional for our needs. Anyone else: if you can provide such a build server, please let me know that, too. I currently use my notebook for building X2go packages (it is a really fast one, but still, it is a notebook). The server behind code.x2go.org also runs a similar qemubuilder setup, but it only falls back to slow qemu software emulation as it already as a virtual machine... Any help is appreciated, Thanks a lot Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…
