X2Go on a Mac using nightly builds to Fedora 26 keystroke problem, LibreOffice menu fonts squished and loss of focus
We have a Mac High Sierra user on the nightly builds connecting to a Fedora 26 workstation also on nightly builds with x2goserver-4.1.0.0-0.0x2go1.0.git20171111.1441.heuler.fc26.x86_64
Using MATE, keystrokes don't echo properly. If he types "ls" into a Terminal window, a "k" appears.
XFCE works fairly well. The main complaint is that menus on LibreOffice are all squashed together. Screenshot at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1H7RPVP0qxqB_37Slbba8rlqdcITaEiDN
Also, he stills getting "loss of focus". At more-or-less random times, the window in which he's typing quits reacting to his keystrokes. Clicking into the window resumes the focus.
This is the same user that had the mixed nx-ibs packages issue.
Resending to see if anyone has any ideas?

Robert, please do not cross-post, especially not without a Reply-To header set to one of the lists. Also, this is a mailing list, not a web forum, so we don't "bump" posts here.
Please keep in mind that: a) Help on the lists is provided by volunteers as their time and knowledge permits. b) Nightly builds are not meant for production use.
Judging from your statement that "This is the same user that had the mixed nx-ibs packages issue.", I strongly suspect that their machine is messed up in more places than just the nx-libs packages.
<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. Oh, and we already have US customers.
- 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 125 EUR. With a support contract, you get guaranteed response times and lower hourly rates if you buy a certain amount of hours in advance. </shameless plug>
