Toby,
are you aware that X2Go has several compression settings for images, and some of them are "lossy", i.e. they may show artifacts where in reality there is nothing, or show nothing where in reality there is a minuscule spot?
If you're using images displayed through X2Go for clinical purposes (deciding whether a certain patient requires a surgery etc.), you should absolutely make sure that you're using a lossless compression or no compression at all, or else you might be seeing things that aren't actually there, or missing things that are there. (This isn't specific to X2Go - it's something to keep in mind with all remote desktop/remote application solutions.)
For your actual bug report, it would be helpful to know if the "flipped image" (it's not color-inverted, it's mirrored along the X axis) issue only occurs with one, or with all available algorithms.
<shameless plug> X2Go also has a commercial side, where various companies - including my own - offer support contracts with guaranteed response times as well as consultancy and paid-for development work if someone wants to see a bug fixed or a new feature added in a certain time frame.
What makes my company special is, IMHO:
- I'm the current X2Go Project/Community Coordinator, so the development lead and the developers tend to listen to me.
- As far as I know, we are the only company providing X2Go support that isn't a one-man-show.
- We sub-contract other developers from the X2Go community on demand, so you only have one person you need to talk to - me - and you will only receive one invoice, even if the task involved several freelance or part-time X2Go developers.
Our hourly rate for consultancy work and fixing issues outside of a support contract is 110 EUR. With a support contract, you get guaranteed response times (starting at 400 EUR/month for 24h response time during business hours in the CET/CEST time zone from Monday to Friday, German holidays excluded) and lower hourly rates if you buy a certain amount of hours in advance. </shameless plug>
Kind Regards, Stefan
