I have noted the following issues so far when using an X2Go Session with Lubuntu 12.04 AMD64 (uses LXDE): The selected theme is ignored. Only the default theme is used (Clearlooks in this case). When I try to use Openbox to change the them to the theme I want (Lubuntu-default) I get an error "an error occurred while saving the config file '/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml'.
Certain applications do not appear in the LXDE application menu. Things like the Synaptic Package Manager for example.
It's like the user does not have proper access permissions when logged in via an X2Go session.
Any ideas?

Please install the package x2goserver-xsession on the server. Does
that solve the reported issues?

I have always installed it so no it does not resolve it. When setting up an X2Go server I install x2goserver, x2goserver-xsession and x2golxdebindings.

Please check all env variables that get set during local session
startup and during X2Go session startup.
Is $DESKTOP_SESSION set? What other differences do you find? The
'/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml' error message alludes that it actually is a
relative path with some variable before which is not set in X2Go
sessions.
Thanks (+request-for-feedback) Mike

$DESKTOP_SESSION is "Lubuntu" (same as a local session). When I connect to the session I am using custom desktop "lxsession -s Lubuntu". I am not familiar enough with the other variables to check them all, anything particular you think I should look at?
The only changes I have noted so far are the theme and missing applications in the LXDE menu. Both work properly in a local session. These are hardly show stoppers but the theme issue is somewhat annoying - the default Lubuntu theme seems to use less resources vs Clearlooks.
