Have you tried the new FreeRDP client <http://www.freerdp.com/> yet?
I've not done any extensive testing but it does now support both Microsoft's RemoteFX & RemoteApp services. Its an Apache license app and v1.0 was released and demo'd at the Ubuntu Developer conference in Nov 2011 <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qnh7f36xkRA>.
RemoteFX - https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/RemoteFX and RemoteApp services - https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/RemoteApp
I've configured Windows 2008 r2 servers on KVM and on AWS EC2, published applications for RemoteApp and then from linux/ubuntu machines run the xfreerdp client and the Windows RemoteApp appears on screen like any other app. I used to have to use seamlessrdp for this but now it just works since the freerdp v1.x release.
I'd like to see FreeRDP support in x2go as I understand in the next Ubuntu FreeRDP is replacing rdesktop.
Brian

Hi Alex, hi all,
I have started documenting the versatile session profile options of X2Go Client and Python X2Go (as found in ~/.x2goclient/sessions).
@Alex: Could you please proof-read this wiki page and fix+change+amend? http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:sessions-file
<snip> Thanks for documenting these, Mike; I read them with great interest. Toward the end, you write, "Setting the command to RDP will turn X2Go into an RDP proxy (RDP via NX). RDP will receive a peformance improvement on WAN connections"
In our experience, this is true for RDP5 but it significantly degrades the native performance of RDP6 and RDP7. For those wishing to use RDP6 or 7 with Windows XP, TSPlus (www.tsplus.net <http://www.tsplus.net>) makes an XP RDP6/7 client and distributes it freely.
I would love to see mimebox included in x2goclient. I know we had planned to write a "multimedia player" to automatically redirect to mimebox similar to the way printing works but have not gotten around to it - still overwhelmed by a large consulting contract completely outside of X2Go :( Thanks again - John
