Seriously? You must disable flash, vlc or any other video-support, too. Oh and don't forget Opera, Chrome, etc, which repaint the screen every time you scroll..... (BTW: FF is doing it right....) You can easily limit bandwidth per user. Then the user can decide between responsibility and sound.
One may also have restrictions about noise in the work place but, if that were the case, one would probably disable the sound devices on the physical computer
ACK!
- then again, some other user may have a use case where it legitimately makes sense to conform to noise restrictions by configuring the X2Go server - John
No you are generating absurd use-cases. One shouldn't have to use x2go to enforce this. And then again the right way of doing this is to forbid remote pulse-audio connections locally!
I have the feeling that these requests are not to support x2go, but to be able to enforce a business-model (For sound you have to pay 10 bucks extra). But what do I care, as long as this is optional and having such a handshake is optional......
