Hi there,

I have just packaged our (Dick Kniep and Mike Gabriel, supported by feedback and design items from Heinz and Alex) first draft of the graphical X2go client ,,Pyhoca-GUI''. The development currently is progressing very fast as it gets sponsored by Dick's company lindix.nl. Thanks a lot for that!!!
You can download the package (and dependencies) for testing from here (please choose your distro and version):
deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/debian squeeze main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/debian sid main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/ubuntu lucid main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/ubuntu maverick main
After adding one of the above lines, simply do:
apt-get update apt-get install pyhoca-gui
Since this announcement post quite a few things have happened:
o Brian Mullan made me aware of the GCONF backend of x2goclient_gtk. I only worked with the Qt x2goclient and was not aware of the GTK client using a different config backend (GCONF). Currently these GCONF session profiles are not seen by pyhoca-gui, only plaintext session profiles in ~/.x2goclient/sessions are seen.
If you want to test pyhoca-gui, please install x2goclient (Qtversion), create a session profile from there and then run pyhoca-gui.
A gconf backend (as well as a Windows registry backend for theWindows version) is on the TODO list, but without a milestone yet.
o On Friday night I added RDP-through-X2go-Proxy support into PyHoca-GUI. Thus, you can now also run as RDP configured sessions from PyHoca-GUI
o For Ubuntu lucid (and maybe also Debian squeeze) there was a dependency problem with my backported python-gevent package. This has also been fixed.

Mike, I thought that Heinz said the GTK client was deprecated and that all new development would be with the Qt client. Has that changed?
