I just tried installing x2goserver, x2goserver-xsession on a new Ubuntu 12.10 machine.
Trying to connect with my x2goclient I got an error
Failed to load session "gnome-fallback"
I guess I had thought that the entry in x2go client for "Unity" meant that actual support for full Unity (not just Unity-2d) had been implemented.
Since starting with Ubuntu 12.10 there is no longer support for Unity-2d are there any plans as to what the future holds with x2go ?
I also am interested what plans there might be for the coming introduction of Wayland into Ubuntu as well as the other linux distro's I've heard that are going to be supporting Wayland?
Thanks for any information.
Brian

Well, x2go uses NX as underlying technology. Upstream's statement regarding this reads: http://www.nomachine.com/news-read.php?idnews=355
TL;DR: this will not work. For now, my personal suggestion is to use xubuntu or kubuntu instead.

I think it is still much too early to speculate about this. A preliminary remoting protocol is still in early drafting state and we have to see how the details about this are going to work out.
Have a nice weekend.

Hello,
Not so long ago i remember that Mike Gabriel talked about that in the future nxagent could be replaced with spice.
AFAIK I'm working with kubuntu with x2go with relative success after applying any of the following workarounds, I've submited one of them also:

This is not in the queue, currently. It is a possibility, but someone
has to start working on it (or possibly contract Alex so that he can
start working on it).

I have yet to wet my feet with spice. Also canonical seems to compile kvm without spice support. Is that the case with debian?

Accoding to the build logs, it is enabled there.

I just started virt-manager and checked "details" for one of my KVM vm's and if you select "Video" then click on the drop-down menu for "options" you will see QXL present as one of the video support options for the VMs.

That was a bug in x2goserver 3.1.1.7 and it has been fixed since
3.1.1.8. However, UNITY is only properly available in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
(and the core developers only support LTS releases of Ubuntu actively).
It is a pity that unity-2d was dropped in 12.10.
I guess I had thought that the entry in x2go client for "Unity" meant that actual support for full Unity (not just Unity-2d) had been implemented.
No, the UNITY option in X2Go Client means: launch unity-2d. This works
fine in 12.04. And I recommend using LTS for serious deployments of
X2Go, anyway.
Since starting with Ubuntu 12.10 there is no longer support for Unity-2d are there any plans as to what the future holds with x2go ?
If Ubuntu sticks to going the OpenGL path and puts more efforts in
supporting hardware acceleration than network transparency of
graphical applications, then no, X2Go will not be able to go that path
(with NX as technology).
I also am interested what plans there might be for the coming introduction of Wayland into Ubuntu as well as the other linux distro's I've heard that are going to be supporting Wayland?
I agree with Reinhard, this seems a bit far off still.
