Hi,
to me this sounds like an gnome or an x2goagnet-bug. Either one is not probing the X-server correctly or the other is not giving the right answer. Solving this in the client would be a workaround. What about xVNC and others? Do they have the same problem?
Cheers Morty

Hi,
I've experimented with running x2goserver on ubuntu/natty. I can report success, but the 'default' GNOME session just makes the x2goagent segfault. As a workaround, I can get a proper gnome session by using a 'custom desktop' with the following command line:
/usr/bin/gnome-session --session 2d-gnome
I find this pretty unobvious, but I can only conclude that ubuntu tries to enable unity and/or graphic effects by default, which in turn causes the mentioned segmentation fault in the x2goagent.
How can this be improved in x2go? On a brief code inspection, it seems that the "session command" is determined in x2goclient. However as I suspect that not all distributions and/or gnome installations support the '2d-gnome' session type, this should only happen where necessary.
What are your thoughts on this issue?
