I would recommend disabling GLX by uncommenting this line in /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options :
#X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=" -extension GLX"
GLX is unusable with the current NX-Libs (even Arctica ones) but since the extension is enabled, some components still tries to use H/W acceleration for some parts. I get far better results (especially stability wise) with this option disabled.
I would even consider disabling it "by default" until a proper GLX support is added to nx-libs.
It is not "unusable". But nx offers an old version of GLX only. And there seem to be some applications that don't care for the version the X server (nxagent in this case) reports. So what should we do?
It is possible to implement a newer GLX version but that would need some investing quite some time. Unfortunately the current nx development staff does not have that time...
Regarding Thunderbird: does it still crash after setting gfx.xrender.enabled to true in about:config (respectively user.js)?
