latest plugin testing
by Gerry Reno 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

Heinz, I ran some tests with the latest plugin today and here are some things I noticed: When displaying a single rootless app, as soon as I place the cursor over the title bar it kills the window. Only happens with the x2go remote app window. Running gnome-terminal natively either locally or remotely displays it correctly. But, when I displayed a single rootless app (gnome-terminal) from a user that had Wine installed, the border was the same as all my other local windows but the palette and menues were all Wine styled and looked like Windows 98. Remote shares work fine. Printing did not work - no spool mount. DPI and compression do not set on whole desktops. They do set on single rootless apps. That's everything I've noticed so far. Gerry

use thin client CPU resources
by Mike Gabriel 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

Hi x2go-folks, here is another question to the developers... When talking to school teachers here in Kiel, there was a very central demand to thin client work stations: run application on the thin client hardware. in schools this is needed for: o accessing USB-devices like LEGO mind storm robots etc. o starting development environments on the thin client CPU (e.g. eclipse) so that programming of ROBOT devices can be tested locally o play media (DVD, AVI on CD or USB-Stick) on the thin client o start firefox locally (but with the user's profile), esp. because of flash media, but also animations on websites As I know, in LTSP there is a solution for that (a weird bash script called ltsp-localapp or so). My question: is there also an idea or an approach for x2go how local CPU usage of thin clients could be implemented? I suppose, there is no implementation yet, is it? My basic idea of how it could be done: o mount $HOME of the x2goserver on the client via sshfs, this mount should be tunneled through the main SSH connection (I know this is the other way round compared to x2goprint spool dir and shared folders... this might need some work and ideas before we go into deatails) o issue a script call on the thin client o set some environment variables on the thin client from within this script ($HOME, $USER etc.) o let the x2goclient start the local app (like firefox, vlc, mplayer, eclipse) As this is probably the most needed feature herearound I'd love to go into detail with this issue sometime in August/September. Plz let me know what you think, Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 eMail-LeseSchreibStunde: wochentags 8h-10h mail: m.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

Patches for shared database, vserver virtualization, and multi-server CUPS print server
by John A. Sullivan III 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

Hello, all. We recently found a condition where the VServer patches we submitted conflict with the x2golistsessions script running on the X2Go Servers. We have revised the patches. Since most of the patches seemed to get lost in the LinuxTag excitement and never posted, I'll repost them all in dependency order. No offense taken if they are deemed useless. We need them for our environment and just thought we'd share them. Improvements are always welcome. They can probably be reworked so they can be configurable options rather than complete replacements for many of the scripts but we have not had time to be that elegant. Thanks - John

Here are the patches for a VServer adaption. Most are applied to the VServer host. Some are applied to the X2Go Servers running as VServer guests. It is explained in the documentation mailed previously. Thanks - John

Here is the documentation for adapting X2Go to a VServer environment including an explanation of why one might want to do that and a brief comparison of X2Go virtualization options to help determine what might work best for a particular environment. We use both KVM and VServer - John

Here is the documentation for the shared database patches to follow shortly. I'm emailing them separately lest the size exceed the mail list limit. The documentation explains the need for this patch including the security holes it plugs. Thanks - John

Sorry about that Kurt. The ISP must have made some changes to their webclient that keep forcing it back to html without notice. I've already put in a trouble ticket with them. I'll see about configuring another webclient.

Hello, Is it possible to get an account on the wiki? Would be nice to change the FAQ to there, so that people with an account can add FAQ's, or even work on some parts of the documentation. With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- http://www.vandervlis.nl/
