by Robert Dinse 19 Oct '18

19 Oct '18

I am having difficulty connecting with the most recent stable of x2go for Windows on Windows 10 to my Linux servers. I am getting a KEX error (Key exchange error).

Failed to start X2Go Agent Session
by Daniel Kollmer 17 Oct '18

17 Oct '18

Hello After some user's session got broken due to a client/server incompatibility, the user deleted all their session data and then told me they can not log in at all anymore. At first I could not see any problem (everything worked as expected for me), but when I deleted my own /tmp/.x2go-danielk directory, I started having the exact same problem. The error I get is: Agent output: "Failed to start X2Go Agent session with ID danielk-50-1539704304_stRTERMINAL_dp24. X2Go Agent terminated unexpectedly. Aborting session startup. The complete relevant last part of the debug log is pasted below. The session.log for this session contains the error Error: Aborting session with 'Unable to open display 'nx/nx,options=/tmp/.x2go-danielk/C-danielk-50-1539704304_stRTERMINAL_dp24/options:50''. Do you have any idea how I can get this working again. It appears to me that something is not functioning accordingly with the session management, because the session state file remains in state STARTING and if I try logging in again then I get asked whether I want to terminate or suspend the running session (can't resume) Thanks for any help.

X2Go: The Gathering 2018 (2018-11-09 - 2018-11-11) will take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace"
by Stefan Baur 11 Oct '18

11 Oct '18

Dear $ALL, As stated in the subject line, X2Go: The Gathering 2018 will take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace", from Friday afternoon, 2018-11-09, to Sunday afternoon/evening, 2018-11-11. So, only a little more than 4 weeks from now. X2Go: The Gathering is the annual event where users, admins, and developers of X2Go meet face to face, to discuss current X2Go-related issues, fix open bugs, and have a good time getting to know each other. As there is some overlap between X2Go, Arctica, and ORCA e.V., you can expect to see members of those groups as well. Food and beverages are available on-site at low cost. What will cost you money is if you need a place to sleep - we have a few hotels/hostels that we recommend; If you want to take part, and need a hostel/hotel room, please contact me at <X2Go-ML-1(a)baur-itcs.de> ASAP, so we can find a hostel/hotel room for you. Prices currently range from about 31 EUR (cheapest single-bed hostel bedroom) to about 80 EUR (single-bed hotel room), but these may change (increase!) as we get closer to the event date, so please book early if you can! However, this year, attendance *at the actual event* is free for everyone, as the venue is not charging us for using their facilities. Please *do* shoot me a quick e-mail (you can reach me at <x2go-ml-1(a)baur-itcs.de>) if you intend to attend, so we have an approximate idea of how many people we need to expect, whether you need a place to stay or not, will be around for breakfast/lunch/dinner, etc. etc. Further information regarding the event, like suggestions on how to travel to shackspace, and where the nearest suitable hostels/hotels are located, can be found at <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-gathering-2018> - we will be updating this page whenever new information becomes available, so please monitor it closely if you plan to attend. We currently have one sponsor for the event - https://cfd.direct - that has pledged 500 EUR (plus VAT), like last year, and we appreciate it very much. Sadly, they are so far our only sponsor this year, so if you know someone willing and able to co-sponsor the event, please let me know at <X2Go-ML-1(a)baur-itcs.de>. Whether they wish to send us some "swag" with their company branding, or pledge money that we can use to lower dining and lodging costs for our participants, their sponsorship is greatly appreciated.

Fwd: x2goclient on openSUSE Tumbleweed

I tried with x2goclient on openSUSE site that you suggested, but I obtain the same problem: if I try to install the rpm, this is the error "rpm -i /media/sf_Downloads/x2goclient-4.1.1.1-2.6.x86_64.rpm warning: /media/sf_Downloads/x2goclient-4.1.1.1-2.6.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID faa17186: NOKEY error: Failed dependencies: libssh_threads.so.4()(64bit) is needed by x2goclient-4.1.1.1-2.6.x86_64" It seems that libssh_threads is not anymore available into the libssh package provided by openSUSE.

Local Desktop access crashes client almost immediately
by James M. Pulver 06 Oct '18

06 Oct '18

I'm running Scientific Linux 7.4 on the server, and Windows 7 on the client. I want to access my accounts (non-privileged) local desktop remotely. I log in and select the local desktop option in the client. I get a flash of the desktop (with the wrong screen size remotely anyway - I see a small part of the desktop) and then the Windows X server crashes. x2goserver-4.0.1.20-1.el7.x86_64 X2Go Client v. 4.1.0.0 Any ideas? -- James Pulver CLASSE Computer Group Cornell University

x2goclient segfault with ubuntu 18.04 kde

Hi I'm getting a segfault on kde (at the moment it's the neon.kde.org packages, but before it was kubuntu) on ubuntu 18.04. How do I debug the crash or better still, how do I fix the crash?

How long should an X2go session stay up?
by James M. Pulver 05 Oct '18

05 Oct '18

I have several users complaining that they "lose" their X2Go session after a week or two and have to re-connect. This is on our local LAN so it's unlikely to be a network drop, though there may be a momentary interruption. In the interest of setting expectations - how long do you all expect an open X2Go session to stay connected and running? -- James Pulver CLASSE Computer Group Cornell University

Is there any way of shortening the x2go mount point?
by Chris Green 05 Oct '18

05 Oct '18

The length of the x2go mount point spoils the output of 'df -m' such that it's almost unusable, so, can it be shortened? Here's what I get (on an 80 column screen) when I run 'df -m' :- Filesystem 1M-bloc ks Used Available Use% Mounted on udev 38 86 0 3886 0% /dev tmpfs 7 84 3 781 1% /run /dev/sdb1 15 10628 96150 10% / tmpfs 39 16 1 3916 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 5 1 5 1% /run/lock tmpfs 39 16 0 3916 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/sdd1 9387 72 553874 337205 63% /bak /dev/sdc1 9387 71 225040 666038 26% /home tmpfs 7 84 1 784 1% /run/user/1000 mp3fs 9387 71 225040 666038 26% /tmp/music.mp3 chris@127.0.0.1:/home/chris/.x2go/S-chris-50-1538728587_stRdk_dp24/spool 1782 00 41245 127836 25% /tmp/.x2go-chris/spool/C-chris-50-1538728587_stRdk_dp24 I realise this is a rather trivial problem but it is somewhat annoying. -- Chris Green
