Hi there,
I have just packaged our (Dick Kniep and Mike Gabriel, supported by
feedback and design items from Heinz and Alex) first draft of the
graphical X2go client ,,Pyhoca-GUI''. The development currently is
progressing very fast as it gets sponsored by Dick's company
lindix.nl. Thanks a lot for that!!!
You can download the package (and dependencies) for testing from here
(please choose your distro and version):
deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/debian squeeze main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/debian sid main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/ubuntu lucid main deb http://packages.das-netzwerkteam.de/ubuntu maverick main
After adding one of the above lines, simply do:
apt-get update apt-get install pyhoca-gui
(PyHoca-GUI currently is mainly tested under Ubuntu lucid!!! No
support for Debian lenny available though!!!)
Currently also, the really developmental profile manager is disabled.
PyHoca-GUI uses the same configuration files as x2goclient. Thus
PyHoca-GUI should work out of the box for most setups / user profiles
that have a working x2goclient configuration.
PyHoca-GUI is only a small icon that docks into your systray (as the
gnome applet for network manager does).
Find this icon (the accelerated X from X2go in Ubuntu-like colors) and
left-click on it. Then choose ,,Authenticate X2go Server'' and you
should find your sesson profiles.
This is all very alpha and please do only test on test systems. No
warranty if you bug your system (which should not happen)!!!
Finally, please note that PyHoca-GUI gets developed in close
cooperation with esp. Heinz and also Alex. Heinz will also provide
some extra artwork (esp. a logo) for PyHoca-GUI, I have seen first
drafts already and I am looking forward to further work of his.
Looking forward for feedback, Mike

Hi Mike, i want to test it, but where i find the pgp-key? I found only 1943CA5B <http://pgp.zdv.uni-mainz.de:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x16F74B011943CA5B>
best regards

You are using maverick? I have to take a look at it as the GPG key
stuff is a bit unnerving. Install this package into your system and
then you have my GPG keyring...

Hope that works...

Hi Mike, i use aptosid and the keyring-package work. pyhoca-gui resolv not all dependencies during the installation. I install further wx-common (don't know if nessassary) and python-wxtools. After that i can start pyhoca-gui.
Thanks for the help

if you have time to test PyHoca-GUI a little that would be great. If
you want to send me bug reports (no bugtracker for now...), please run
the client with
pyhoca-gui --debug --libdebug
There will be quite a lot of output then that might be helpful for me
in tracking down bugs.
Greets, Mike

Everything is possible, but it is not intended... Plugin usage is
completely off my focus for the GUI.
The plugin development takes place with Heinz&Alex. Please support and
refer to them.

I really need a recent and hackable plugin, so I'm a little bit lost :/ I thought maybe a plugin for this GUI could be easier to code…

Hallo Gabriel!

Thanks too! It was wise to spend money on better development!!!
It worked!!! Other than the old clients!!! Nobody needs Debian!
Please change it to gconf!!!
PyHoca-GUI is only a small icon that docks into your systray (as the gnome applet for network manager does).
I would prefer a integration in existing clients so as remmina... or vinagre - still!
I thought this is a fork - why are yu using their icon?
My thoughts about:
*store your work on launchpad! *use the native client feature of chrome to have a webclient without needed of programming a plugin (it is easy and will run even on android phones) *authenticate user with web2.0 sites like passport, openID or fbook *stop talking to the old dev team - look forward and try to become compatible to nx(4?) again - their server is much better.
But it looks so much better so! Go on!
Dear list, dear Heinz and Alex,

It is only relatively nice to get to know Eli's opinion here, but I
may state here that I will certainly proceed cooperating with Heinz
and Alex. The joint work is very very futile. PyHoca-GUI is not a fork
at all, it is a contribution to X2go.
As earlier postings of Eli (or whatever his name is) have not been
very polite berfore and neither very contributive in terms of X2go
development, I recommend setting his mail address to moderated on the
mailing list. I know that esp. Heinz absolutely dislikes moderating
postings to this or any other X2go mailing list, but in his case I
think it a little bit of censorship would be quite appropriate!!!
Thanks, Mike
AND: this list is for discussing about development issues around X2go,
thus this sub-thread ends with this posting!!! Please everyone, stay
with the primary subject of this thread. Do not let it be hi-jacked!!!

Well, you can't stop a thread on a public mailing list by pronouncing you are the only one entitled to an opinion. Of course you can ignore any follow-ups (which can be quite tough ;-).

Hi there,
On Fr 10 Dez 2010 12:33:17 CET Mike Gabriel wrote:
Since this announcement post quite a few things have happened:
o Brian Mullan made me aware of the GCONF backend of x2goclient_gtk. I only worked with the Qt x2goclient and was not aware of the GTK client using a different config backend (GCONF). Currently these GCONF session profiles are not seen by pyhoca-gui, only plaintext session profiles in ~/.x2goclient/sessions are seen.
If you want to test pyhoca-gui, please install x2goclient (Qt version),
create a session profile from there and then run pyhoca-gui.
A gconf backend (as well as a Windows registry backend for the Windows
version) is on the TODO list, but without a milestone yet.
o On Friday night I added RDP-through-X2go-Proxy support into PyHoca-GUI. Thus, you can now also run as RDP configured sessions from PyHoca-GUI
o For Ubuntu lucid (and maybe also Debian squeeze) there was a dependency
problem with my backported python-gevent package. This has also
been fixed.
Greets, Mike

Mike, I thought that Heinz said the GTK client was deprecated and that all new development would be with the Qt client. Has that changed?

Maybe the GTK client is deprecated, but we should maybe indeed think
about continuing GCONF support. As the GTK client provides a storage
format for GCONF, it will be easy to use that from Python X2go. Python
X2go will be very flexible concerning backends (session backends,
profile backends etc.). In the near future I will add command-line
options that let you choose which backend to choose (e.g. for session
profiles).
