Hi Terje,
Thanks for the suggestion to give Mate a try. I installed it now on the x2go server and surprise, surprise.. the bottom-panel is no longer
missing when connecting from a Mac client. I'm now playing around with the settings to make it look like Gnome as much
as possible so the users don't get too scared :)
Kind regards,
Mervin

Then youshould try the mate desktop.
It's a fork of gnome 2 that works well with x2go.

Hi list,
I managed to get X2Go TCE running, by following the instructions on
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:advanced:tce:install
Everything works fine, except for the sound.
All my thin clients don't emit sound.
Browsing through the list archive, I found a post from back in October
where Mike said it happens due to a permission problem, and he posted
two links to GIT where he had patched this (the first patch introduced a
typo, which was fixed in the second patch).
So I decided to …
[View More]give it a go and simply copy the x2gothinclient_create
script from GIT over the one I already had on disk.
Sadly, this just made things worse: after removing the chroot directory
and rebuilding it with the new version of x2gothinclient_create, neither
keyboard nor mouse work, so I can't even log in. Reverting back to the
old script, rm'ing the chroot directory and running
x2gothinclient_create again fixed that issue - but I still have no sound.
Any hints? Which log or config file(s) should I post?

Moin,
ich habe das Problem, das bei der Verbindung auf einen x2goserver die alt gr Taste nicht mit übertragen wird.
Ist das ein Käferchen oder eine Funktion?
Kann ich die alt gr Taste sonst irgendwie simulieren?
Grüße
Gregor
