Re: [X2Go-User] X2Go-User Digest, Vol 36, Issue 13

Hi Mike, I'm glad to help. A really cool tool like X2go deserves a really great documentation. I am always amazed how few people (especially here in the Westcoast of the US) don't know X2go. I have been using it for a long time now, but might be a little shaky in the internals. What I am good at though is seeing both the developers side and the users side and be able to bridge it in documentation. One thing that I would think would work great is to have an into page in the wiki, called "New to X2go? Start here! What is X2go and what does it do?" I would write a little thing there about how Linux was basically always the perfect Terminal server, BUT no easy free framework ever existed to use it. That we used to envy RDP on Windows and that we now got the same thing and much better on Linux. I especially want to point out what it can do (like thinclient support which is super cool). On some details I might have to ask you a few things, what what is, since I have seen that you added a ton of new features that I am not even aware what they do (I for example never used the desktopsharing function) I would also like to do a bit there where I do a little FAQ like: I got X11 forwarding over ssh, why do I need X2go? (A think I hear all the time from people) and point out what it can do more.

Offer for help
by Nigra Truo 25 Aug '13

Hi Mike, First I'd like to thank you for all the great work and effort you have put into X2go. I would like to contribute to the project. My skill is not necessarily programming, but I think I might be able to improve some of the documentation, a thing that you might not have time to. Or is there another way I can contribute my time? Thanks, Markus

Redirect only specific sound devices?
by Buddy Butterfly 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

Hi all, for a headless system I am trying to run a headset locally on it. For operation I have used x2go which works perfect, even for sound. So this solved the headache with KVM ;-). Now I would like to use a headset locally on the headless system which is connected via USB and its own usb sound card (Logitech, works always perfect!). I am unable to get the headset to work while being connected to via x2go. Headset should be primarily for voip. So, how I could use this headset? Is it possible to configure somehwere that not all sound devices should be redirected but only specific ones? With this I could try to leave out the headset sound card. Thanks for any help, Matt

x2goserver doesn't configure properly on RHEL 5 (problem with perl's file module?)
by Holger Krause 23 Aug '13

Hi list, Inspired by Kermit Short's posting a week ago, I tried to install x2goserver on RHEL 5 (x86_64) today. Missing dependencies I installed manually. The dependency on the perl-file module reported by yum ---- Error: Missing Dependency: perl(File::BaseDir) is needed by package x2goserver ---- I tried to fullfill with ---- [root@hermes ~]# rpm -i perl-File-BaseDir-0.03-1.el5.noarch.rpm ----- Here's the transcript of the final installation by yum: ----- [root@hermes ~]# yum install -e 3 x2goserver Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

releases+translations of X2Go Client / PyHoca-GUI
by Mike Gabriel 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Hi all, currently we have two releases pending: X2Go Client and PyHoca-GUI. Both projects are still hoping for people working on their translations: X2Go Client: -> Russion translation (Alex? Nable?) PyHoca-GUI: -> Dutch translation (Anyone?) The Dutch translator for PyHoca-GUI is currently on vacation, so maybe someone else can jump in? I will release those versions on 26th August (Monday next week) if no more translations come in. If you have any questions on X2Go translation work, please contact me personally (or subscribe to x2go-i18n ML [1] right away and ask there). Furthermore, we have a couple of translations incomplete. Thanks to those who provided the work in the first place!!! However, I hope that there are people on our mailing lists who feel entitled to continue the work: X2Go Client: French, Chinese/Taiwan (zh_tw) PyHoca-GUI: French If you run your computer in your local language and X2Go Client / PyHoca-GUI appear(s) in Englisch on your screen, you may also feel entitled joining the X2Go i18n / translation team. Translating software is a task that non-developers can easily do. I will do my best in supervising you ASAP, so you can get started with the translation work right away.

Advice needed on a somewhat working x2go configuration
by Yohan Bataille 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hi, I need a GUI application (RetroShare) to start on boot on my headless server (Debian Wheezy up to date with x2go repos) and be available remotely. I got it working with the scripts below but it's cumbersome. Is it how it is supposed to be done ? I only encounter two issues apart from the complexity : -- x2goclient (v4.0.1.0 on my PC) resolution is ignored and Xvfb startup resolution (900x550) is used even after it has been killed. -- Caps Lock cannot be used, because once it has been, it stays on. Regards, Yohan scripts : $ cat /etc/rc.local su -l -c /home/yohan/launch_x2go.sh yohan $ cat /home/yohan/launch_x2go.sh #!/bin/bash export DISPLAY=:1 # Xvfb is a framebuffer Xserver.

Mike on Debconf video

Hi, You need a really new browser for this video (Iceweasel/Firefox 17 does not work, Chromium 28 does work). http://www.irill.org/videos/debconf13/X2Go_Terminal_Server_Suite_and_Debian… In my opinion it's a very good idea to use a driver in Xorg to avoid the license problems. With regards, Paul van der Vlis -- Paul van der Vlis Linux systeembeheer, Groningen http://www.vandervlis.nl

X2goclient: Bringing up NX3 proxy failed.
by Nigra Truo 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

Hi, my x2goclient stopped working a day ago and I cannot get it to connect to my x2goserver. X2goclient on Windows works, so it must be a Linux client problem. I removed and reinstalled the client, tried it as another user, purged config, all to no avail. When using x2goclient, X2Go client V. 4.0.1.0 (Qt - 4.8.2) on server: 4.0.1.6-0~x2go1+wheezy~main~712~build1 I get this message: Can't load translator (:/x2goclient_en_us) ! Can't load translator :/qt_en_US Connection timeout, abortingInfo: Aborting the procedure due to signal '15'. Session: Session terminated at 'Thu Aug 15 17:13:47 2013'. and a question box if I want to terminate the session. when using pyhoca-gui --libdebug I get this output: (failed to start NX3 proxy, but no reason why) -------- Xlib.protocol.request.QueryExtension pyhoca-gui[31820] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: proposed config files are ['/home/browny/.x2goclient/sessions'] pyhoca-gui[31820]

x2golxdebindings for squeeze relies on 'update-icon-caches' being available in it's postinst script
by Holger Krause 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

Dear all, I just wanted to update x2golxdebindings from version 1.0.1.3-0~x2go1+squeeze~main~30~build1 to 1.0.2.1-0~x2go1+squeeze~main~41~build1 on a squeeze system. Unfortunately, this results in an error: ---- root@perrin:~# aptitude install x2golxdebindings No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Trying to recover: ---- I noticed the postinst script doesn't check for availability/executability of 'update-icon-caches'. The previous version (1.0.1.3) had been installed without any complains. Should I report this to the x2go bug tracker? As a workaround I installed 'libgtk2.0-bin', which contains '/usr/sbin/update-icon- caches'. (Perhaps x2golxdebindings should depend on this package?) Thanks for providing x2go! Holger

Missing Dependencies while installing on RHEL5
by Kermit Short 14 Aug '13

14 Aug '13

Greetings, I'm trying to install on 32 & 64 bit RHEL5. I've downloaded the RHEL5 repository file but when I try to install x2goserver, I get a dependency conflict on perl(Sys::Syslog). Apparently I do have a version of the perl module installed that's insufficient. When I try to install an upgraded version, I get a package conflict with Perl itself. Has anyone seen this? More importantly, has anyone found a work around? Thanks! -Kermit Short
