thanks Mike...

Getting Ubuntu was very cool to see on an Android tablet.

If x2go can be made to work then it won't matter the power of the tablet as the server will do all the heavy lifting and the tablet will just become a very portable
terminal & keyboard to the applications on any x2go server.

pyhoca-client didn't show up when I installed the Ubuntu Repository (using the ppa on the x2go wiki).

So I was assuming it wasn't yet available --- not sure how the 2 packages that did appear got built for ARM or by who.

But Python is already installed on the Ubuntu I've got on the tablet so my assumption is that pyhoca should be relatively easy to get working also.

If you have anything you want me to try let me know.   I might need some guidance though if I get any errors that I don't understand<g>

I probably have no influence on armel-builds on Launchpad, but I have an influence on the X2go package build process for Debian. I have already thought to build the main area in the packages.x2go.org repos for armel, as well. I use qemubuilder for build the packages, so I could basically build for any available architecture. It will take time (qemu software emulation), but it will work (and my build machine is quite smart).


I added the Ubuntu x2go repository

The 'sudo apt-get install x2goclient" did successfully run but so far it

Really? x2goclient should not be in the armel repositories. Where did you actually install from. Maybe the old location on obviously-nice.de???

only finds the following in the ARMEL repository for x2go:

*p    python-x2go        - python module for X2go client support*
*p    x2goserver          - x2go server daemon scripts*

pyhoca-gui is arch-independent and should also be available. As there is an old version of nxproxy in Ubuntu you should actually be able to run pyhoca-gui on armel. Could you please try that (apt-get install pyhoca-gui).

[...]

I didn't really get the last part. Concrete question, maybe also to Reinhard: is there a possibility to build armel packages on Ubuntu launchpad?

Greets,
Mike
