First, I’m checking DISPLAY by these methods: env | grep DISPLAY echo $DISPLAY
By xterm in single application mode, do you mean to start a terminal window from XQuartz? Or do you mean to start an application from x2go using published applications mode? Or?
When I ssh into the machine from Mac Terminal or from a terminal window in XQuartz, DISPLAY does not have a value.
I don’t know much about the different window environments for unix, but when I set TRINITY on x2go, I am unable to connect, I get the error “Unable to execute: start trinity”.
I’m new at x2go and haven’t read any manual yet, I’m just trying to go for it.

Hmm, that shouldn't happen. While I don't have XFCE and a Mac available tonight, doing the same with TRINITY and a Windows machine gives me a properly set DISPLAY variable.
What happens if you run, say, xterm in single application mode? Is DISPLAY set there?
