Ok, another update after 24 hours more of trial-and-error:
I have tried many combinations and STILL no gnome desktop for Likewise users! I don't understand it, I have tried: -10.10 maverick with Likewise 6.0 and x2goserver-one 3.01-1 -10.10 maverick with Likewise 5.3 and x2goserver-home 3.01-1 -10.04 lucid with Likewise 5.4 and x2goserver 3.01-5
Also, I have tried using unspecified domain and default domain (e.g. either "DOMAIN\username" or just "username" when using default domain), same result either way. Authentiction is successful, but no desktop!
And every time, perfect success with local users (full GNOME desktop), blank/black screen with Likewise users, no matter what x2go client (Linux, Mac, Windows, 3.01-04 all the way through latest 3.01-14)
Ivan, you are for certain using 10.10 maverick and LW 5.4 and x2goserver (not home/one) and you have never seen this black screen issue at all?
I'm determined to get this working as I know we will have audio if we can get it! <snip> Oh, wait a second . . . Ubuntu. Does Ubuntu still use dash as the default shell? If I recall correctly, there are some calls in the X2Go

I would also suggest to the devs to change the scripts to use #!/bin/bash rather than #!/bin/sh as the scripts do invoke bash specific statements - John
