Hi Paul,
thanks for continued interest.

in my reply a couple of weeks ago, I wrote (see also below):
"I know, some screensavers don't use the X11 screen saver extension. But I need the program xprintidle to work which requires this extension (see Ubuntu/Debian package xprintidle)."
Sorry, maybe I've missed this message.
If you start the program xprintidle, you get the message:
$ xprintidle screen saver extension not supported
I need this program to work, because it will tell me the amount of X11 idle time from which I trigger some actions for other programs when a certain amount of idle time has passed.
So the fact that some screensavers work, unfortunately doesn't help, since these obviously are programmed without needing the "X11 screen saver extension".
All this comes back to the final question: Is it possible to activate the extension (or other X11 extensions), and if yes how?
Sorry, I don't know.
X2go is using the NX libraries from Nomachine. These libraries have a complete (changed) embedded copy of Xorg inside, maybe without the X11 extention. I know you can change some things on it, e.g. with shortcuts: http://www.nomachine.com/ar/view.php?ar_id=AR03C00172 But I think some things are possible with arguments too.
I would search the site of Nomachine to find more information about it: http://www.nomachine.com/support.php Not sure you will find...
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.
