Hi Stéphane, hi x2go-dev-list,

@x2go-dev-ML: this discussion about using python-x2go in Ubuntu's
Software Center started as a private mail from Stéphane to me and I
requested making it public which he granted (THANKS!).

@Stéphane: could you resend your reply to the list as well? THANKS!

Hi,

I'm currently working on implementing x2go support in the Ubuntu Software Center to use it as a replacement for FreeNX in WebLive[1].

This is great news!!!! I am very open to feedback and improvements
(patches!). Whenever you find something, send it over.

You can find our latest code at http://git.x2go.org

I found a few issues in backends/proxy/base.py that are causing crashes on disconnect. Attached is a very small patch fixing these issues.

Applied and uploaded to our Git. THANKS!

I also know that we have some issues with using python-x2go in the software-center because of it using gevent and causing some weird threading issues in our code but I'll have a look at these either this week (though I'm at the Ubuntu Developer Summit in Budapest) or next from home.

If you use another event handler in combination with python-gevent you
have to call a gevent.sleep every few milliseconds. Please refer to
the pyhoca-gui code for an example:

http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=pyhoca-gui.git;a=blob;f=pyhoca/wxgui/frontend....

In the above file take a look at the OnIdle method in line 159.

Our test branch is: https://code.launchpad.net/~weblive-dev/software-center/weblive-x2go

I'll let you know how things are going on our side and if we have any question or other fixes/improvements we'd like to see in python-x2go.

Yes, do so!!! Very welcome!!! If it turns out that you will have quite
a few patches to add we can also discuss direct access to our Git
site.

From our Git we build nightly packages on Launchpad, I have just
kicked that off today... http://launchpad.net/~x2go

Thanks for the great software!

Thanks for considering its usage!!! Note, that the whole X2go project
is moving towards AGPL soon. Will that be a problem for you and your
project context?

Greets, Mike

PS: I would like to send a copy of this mail to the X2go dev mailing
list and actually would also love to continue the discussion and
sharing their. Would that be OK for you?
