Heads-Up: X2Go: The Gathering 2018 (2018-11-09 - 2018-11-11) will very likely take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace"
by Stefan Baur 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Dear $ALL, since nobody has replied to the call for volunteers for the IT-Kongress event (see <https://www.mail-archive.com/x2go-project@lists.x2go.org/msg00278.html>), and since we've lost a sponsor, compared to the previous years, it is very likely that X2Go: The Gathering 2018 will have to take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace" (<https://shackspace.de/>) - "will have to" meaning that we're out of suitable alternatives due to both time/volunteer staff as well as financial constraints. Thus, there will be no voting period regarding the location this year, we'll simply have to pick the only option that seems to be left at the moment. The last-resort fallback option would be Ulm's youth hostel (both as an event location as well as for sleeping arrangements), but this would mean groups of 4 people would have to share one room, as they do not offer smaller rooms - which, judging from previous years' feedback, is not a situation most of our participants would be happy with. This is why we're not offering a poll with Stuttgart and Ulm as options. For Stuttgart, we're looking at a hostel-like place that offers single and double rooms, as well as at a hotel nearby, for people that prefer a higher-quality sleeping arrangement. Details will be published on the Wiki at <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-gathering-2018> as soon as the two sites have confirmed room availability and replied with their booking cancellation terms.

Volunteers needed: X2Go Booth @ IT-Kongress Neu-Ulm, Thursday, 2018-11-08
by Stefan Baur 26 Aug '18

26 Aug '18

Hi $LIST, We are in dire need of volunteers for our X2Go Booth @ IT-Kongress Neu-Ulm. The problem is that this event is taking place exactly one day before this year's X2Go: The Gathering event is scheduled to take place. Which makes it difficult for folks willing and able to attend the Gathering to also attend this event. If anyone that doesn't have time to attend the Gathering, but would be able to attend this event, would step forward, this would be really nice and helpful. Of course, you may also step forward if you're already planning to attend X2Go: The Gathering, but don't mind the extra time/effort/travel required to attend IT-Kongress as well. ;-) Food and beverages are provided at no charge during the IT-Kongress event; also, dinner in the evening will be free of charge to all participating X2Go volunteers as well. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243

Call for Participation: X2Go booth @ TUEBIX 2018, Tuebingen, Germany (2018-06-09)
by Stefan Baur 10 May '18

10 May '18

Hi everyone, We are going to have an X2Go booth at TUEBIX 2018 and are looking for volunteers to man the booth. Booth size will be 2-3 tables, so 4-6 seats (one possibly occupied by a 100 cm Tux plushie). The official schedule for TUEBIX 2018 will soon be available at <https://www.tuebix.org/>. TUEBIX opens for visitors at 09:30 CEST - volunteers should probably arrive 30-60 minutes prior. Dismantling of the booth takes place around 18:30 CEST. After that you can either join the TUEBIX BBQ or leave, just as you please. (Note that these start/end times were copied from a schedule that was still in beta, so we might see updates to them once the official schedule gets published.) You do not need to man the booth all day long; as long as we have enough volunteers, you can also leave the booth temporarily to listen to some of the talks. If you're interested in volunteering for X2Go, please reply to this message, preferably on-list. If you're interested in volunteering at TUEBIX in general, please have a look at <https://www.tuebix.org/callforhelpers/> for the list of tasks still in need of volunteers. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243

Shutdown and update of macOS builders
by Mihai Moldovan 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Hi So far, our macOS builders were based on OS X 10.10 and macOS 10.12 and have built X2Go Client package bundles targeted to these platforms. Coming up in the next few hours, I will shutdown, backup and update the builders. The OS X 10.10 machine will be updated to OS X 10.11 and the macOS 10.12 machine will be updated to macOS 10.13. My personal machine will stay on OS X 10.9 and be used to build package bundles targeted to this platform. Regards, Mihai Moldovan

Attention: All X2Go Server Admins! Upcoming major X2Go (Server) Release
by Stefan Baur 23 Feb '18

23 Feb '18

Hi! We would like to inform you that a new X2Go stable version is about to be released, most likely around March 1st, 2018. In fact, the release is already ready - we are actively holding back the binary package builds at the moment so you have a chance to react. If you have set all your servers to automatically update to new releases, we suggest that you disable this mechanism now until you have verified that the new version works for you. If, on the other hand, you test and deploy updates manually, no change is required. Please test the new X2Go stable version as soon as it becomes available, so that we have a chance to fix any remaining issues that slipped through our testing early on. Should you encounter major problems with the new version, we suggest switching to the ESR branch, codenamed "saimaa". This branch will continue to receive security updates, but is (and will remain) based on what you currently know as "stable". Some packages, like cups-x2go, pinentry-x2go, x2godesktopsharing, x2go*bindings, are not part of saimaa and thus must be pulled from the regular repository. This requires proper setting of repository priorities, so packages existing in the saimaa repository take priority over packages from the regular repository. If you need assistance with this, please make sure you have disabled automatic updates before doing anything else, then ask for help either in our IRC channel #x2go on freenode, or on the x2go-user Mailing List. However, if you are a daredevil and already want to access binary packages that pretty much match what we are going to release soon, temporarily change your X2Go repository entry to the timestamped heuler repository bearing the timestamp of 2018-02-16, pull the update, then switch your repository back to stable. Note that this is a procedure not recommended for the average user. Try and use at your own risk. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243

HOWTO: How to set up X2Go in a LXD machine container
by Simos Xenitellis 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Hi All, I have written a howto about using X2Go in a LXD ('LexDee') "machine container", https://blog.simos.info/how-to-use-the-x2go-remote-desktop-with-lxd-contain… A "machine container" is a mix between a virtual machine and a container. It is a container, but boots up the rootfs of many different Linux distributions. It is much more lightweight than VM, and you can have about ten times more such containers to a single VM. The HowTo is about setting up X2Go in such a LXD container, 1. to run individual X11 applications 2. to run the whole desktop 3. to set up Published Applications. Any input to the howto is welcome. Simos

X2Go OpenSUSE Package Archive: Provisioning of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed Packages
by Mihai Moldovan 17 Nov '17

17 Nov '17

Dear all I am happy to announce that from now on the X2Go package archive that provides OpenSUSE packages of X2Go[1] also offers X2Go packages that have been built against OpenSUSE Tumbleweed - the OpenSUSE rolling release version. Note that we only provide nightly packages for OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, akin to Fedora Rawhide. We hope this makes our package archive more useful. If you encounter dependency problems when installing X2Go nightly packages under OpenSUSE Tumblewed, please file a bug report with X2Go BTS[3]. For setup information, refer to the SUSE-based packages info wiki article[3].
