XFCE black desktop when connecting from Windows 8.1
by David Zafra [KLO] 21 Nov '14

21 Nov '14

Hi everybody I can connect fairly well to my x2go server from Windows XP, Windows 7 and Ubuntu clients. But when I connect from Windows 8.1 64 bits I see a black desktop. I do see menu bars and they work fine, but I can't do anything with desktop elements because it's all black as I said. Right click over desktop doesn't work. I have using the following scenario: * Ubuntu 14.04 server * XFCE * x2goclient version 4.0.3.0-20141021 I've tried using Xming as X server, but it doesn't fix my problem. Any help will be very appreciate. -- *David Zafra Gómez* KLO Ingeniería Informática ~~--.. www.klo.es <http://www.klo.es/> ..--~~ Aviso Legal: De acuerdo con la Ley 15/1999 (LOPD), usted tiene derecho al acceso, rectificación y cancelación de sus datos personales informados en el fichero del que es titular KLO.

CentOS7/EPEL package?
by Les Mikesell 20 Nov '14

20 Nov '14

Is something wrong with the x2goserver-4.0.1.18-1.el7.x86_64 package in EPEL. The CentOS7 hosts that worked with the previous version (w/MATE desktop) now just open a black window on the client that closes almost instantly. On one system I upgraded only the x2goserver package to make sure it wasn't some other update causing the problem. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Unable to start session...
by Cohen, Neil 19 Nov '14

19 Nov '14

I have 2 RHEL 6 systems that I want to access using X2Go from my Mac. From the Mac, I can ssh to both systems without any problem. I can open an X2Go session to one machine but not to the other. When I try the second system, the connection fails with a popup message that says: Connection failed sh: x2golistsessions: command not found I’m using the same session configuration for both machines except for the actual machine name. Can someone tell me what this error means and how I might be able to fix it??

Thin(ish) terminal without PXE
by James E. LaBarre 13 Nov '14

13 Nov '14

I am trying to set up a "Thin" terminal on an old T23 ThinkPad laptop, but I'm not looking to set up a PXE server for it to boot off of. Instead I have installed a basic copy of Debian on it (used LXDE just to see that the graphics would work), and have set up x2gothinclient as the "display manager" (ratherthan the default lightdm). The problem I've seen thus far is there is no way to define a x2go login profile, which I would need to even use it at all. The "example" profiles on the login screen cannot be edited, and they don't go anyplace (at least no place in MY home network). There also isn't anyplace on the login screen to add new ones (the way you would if you brought up the x2client on a regular desktop session).

x2go Client not connecting. Where to get more info?
by Diego Costantini 13 Nov '14

13 Nov '14

Hi, I am trying to connect a Windows 7 machine to a Mint/Cinnamon server with desktop sharing enabled. I see the ssh connection apparently successful from auth.log: Nov 11 17:57:42 myPC sshd[31369]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for myUser from 10.0.0.5 port 49481 ssh2 Nov 11 17:57:42 myPC sshd[31369]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user sms1\dcostantini by (uid=0) If I try a wrong password it fails, so up to SSH all seems ok. But the client shows nothing, it is greyed out (but seems not frozen) and I can only close the window. Is there some log on the client? Maybe I can find the blocker there and report for more help. I read that Cinnamon was an issue but it should be working now, right? Thanks, Diego

x2go client and numeric pad
by Robert Parts 11 Nov '14

11 Nov '14

Hi, We have problems with x2go and numeric pad. The keys in numeric pad seem to work in random manner, some of them display digits, some are blank, some work like arrow keys. Server: Mint 17, native X2Go client. We have tested both Autodetect and Configured keyboards: pc105 fi pc105 et pc105 de by using WinXP; Win 8.1; Win7 and Mint 17 X2Go clients. pc105 + us works until nobody touch "Num-Lock" button. Press it twice (off & on again) and after that randomly some numbers are ok some not, even same button gives random results. Should I use another Keyboard layout? Is somewhere a list about alternatives? Robert
