Cannot successfully use the x2go client on windows 8.1
by Ruxin Wang 29 Dec '14

29 Dec '14

I have installed the x2go server under the ubuntu 14.04 on a remote computer. When I use the x2go client under either windows 7 or ubuntu 14.04 on another computer and then connect to the server, the client works fine. However, some problems occurred when I run the client under windows 8.1. Actually I can connect successfully, but the remote desktop is black and I cannot right-click on desktop. When I open the file system or the file manager, it could be very slow (it may take 35~30 seconds to open the file folder). I have searched on google but found no answer. Is there any configuration for fixing this? Any ideas?

Season's greetings

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear X2Go Community, Contributors, Developers, Friends, The first Ideas of X2Go were made about 10 years ago. There was no name for this project and only one use case. With the first people using it, it started to grow. In the past years more and more people joined the project, fixed bugs, contributed code and helped to make it usable for more and more people. X2Go now has been growing to something we all really should be proud of - - something we should keep care of. The first step was to start this project. This milestone can be seen as done. The second step from now on will be to keep it running. This will be a real challenge, because this project has a history. Every story of history is something we can learn from and we really should do this to avoid already appeared mistakes and problems. It is really nice to stumble upon screen-shots of X2Go all over the world in different localizations! For the future of this project, we really need to find more and more people helping us to spread the word, to control our work and to translate it for new audiences! Furthermore we really should be aware that communication is the key of cooperation and sharing. Sharing ideas, concerns and problems will be the key to work on our next step -> keep the project running! To all #FriendsOfX2Go: Season's greetings and best wishes for the New Year! Heinz-M.

Pulseaudio doesn't start on Win7
by George Trakatelis 20 Dec '14

20 Dec '14

Hi Michael, With regard to Ralf's workaround to PulseAudio's failure to start when there is no audio recording device enabled http://lists.x2go.org/pipermail/x2go-user/2014-December/002689.html I'd like to share my findings. First of all, the problem seems to be more widespread than anticipated. In fact, it affects all modern motherboards with onboard sound (be it from Realtek or Intel) that support jack detection and distinguish whether or not an actual device is plugged in. Secondly, being such a problem as described above, one can easily overcome it in two ways: a. plug a mic in the microphone jack or b. enable a dummy audio recording device as Philip did http://lists.x2go.org/pipermail/x2go-user/2013-August/001570.html > OK. I'll send a separate email out to x2go-dev to decide how we will > implement disabling the microphone. > > -Mike#2 Disabling microphone input in X2Go Client for Windows is a move in the right direction and I'm sure developers will address the issue properly, but -in the meantime- users can achieve the same result with less effort compared to Ralf's solution. George

pyhoca-gui unable to establish connection
by Mike 18 Dec '14

18 Dec '14

Hello all, As the subject says I'm unable to connect with pyhoca-gui anymore. This started on 12/04 after an update on Debian wheezy, both client and server side. I am still able to connect with X2go client. Far from a noob, yet I've just about exceeded my debugging abilities on this. Pyhoca-[gui|cli] is also unable to connect with an up to date Jessie machine either, same results, log messages, etc. Ssh authentication has be stripped to just using a password, no keys. Seemingly either gui or cli will just wait forever. I've not timed it, but let it go around 20min this afternoon and the dialog box was still there. Either KDE will terminate the dead processes after prompting or I do in manually in a shell. I can provide any more information if needed. Thanks for any input Mike mike@pride-n-joy:~$ pyhoca-gui -d --libdebug Xlib.protocol.request.QueryExtension pyhoca-gui[10313] (PyHoca-GUI) DEBUG: PyHoca-GUI's user interface language is: en_US. pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: proposed config files are ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/sessions'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: config files found: ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/sessions'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: proposed config files are ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/settings'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: config files found: ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/settings'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: proposed config files are ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/printing'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goinifiles-pylib) INFO: config files found: ['/home/mike/.x2goclient/printing'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (PyHoca-GUI) INFO: PyHoca GUI is starting up pyhoca-gui[10313] (PyHoca-GUI) INFO: start TaskBarIcon of type: ('__WXGTK__', 'wxGTK', 'unicode', 'gtk2', 'wx-assertions-off', 'SWIG-1.3.29') pyhoca-gui[10313] (PyHoca-GUI) WARN: the current release of PyHoca-GUI does not support client configuration pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: Entering X2Go Guardian client management loop... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: Entering X2Go Guardian client management loop... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: Entering X2Go Guardian client management loop... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: X2Go control session parameters for profile tightrope: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: username: mike pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: key_filename: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: unique_hostkey_aliases: False pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: look_for_keys: False pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: X2Go terminal session parameters for profile tightrope: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: client_encoding: ISO8859-1 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: set_session_title: True pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: snd_system: none pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: session_type: desktop pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: server_encoding: UTF-8 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: snd_port: 4713 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: rdp_server: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: kbtype: pc105/us pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: applications: ['WWWBROWSER', 'MAILCLIENT', 'OFFICE', 'TERMINAL'] pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: published_applications: False pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: link: adsl pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: xdmcp_server: localhost pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: kbvariant: null pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: geometry: fullscreen pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: rdp_options: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: cmd: LXDE pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: convert_encoding: False pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: clipboard: both pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: kblayout: us pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: session_title: X2Go -- tightrope pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: pack: 16m-jpeg-9 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: X2Go sshproxy parameters for profile tightrope: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: sshproxy_look_for_keys: False pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: sshproxy_host: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: sshproxy_key_filename: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: sshproxy_user: pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: sshproxy_port: 22 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG: initializing X2GoControlSession pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosessregistry-pylib) NOTICE: registering X2Go session tightrope... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gosessregistry-pylib) DEBUG: registering X2Go session with UUID 7a2f6cba-8645-11e4-bc1e-002564eaa29b pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goclient-pylib) NOTICE: initializing X2Go session... pyhoca-gui[10313] (PyHoca-GUI) INFO: password dialog box started pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: Entering X2Go Guardian client management loop... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: Entering X2Go Guardian client management loop... pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gocontrolsession-pylib) NOTICE: connecting to [192.168.96.5]:22 pyhoca-gui[10313] (x2gocontrolsession-pylib) DEBUG: trying password based SSH authentication with server Terminated mike@pride-n-joy:~$ Dec 17 18:36:14 tightrope sshd[7880]: debug1: Forked child 17664.

client side printing
by Bernhard Mayr 16 Dec '14

Hi! Client side printing does not work on my x2goserver. When looking at the file /etc/cups/cups-x2go.conf I am wondering whether I need the ssh keys only if the cupsserver resides on a different server as the x2go server?

Fullscreen issues from laptop
by David Zafra [KLO] 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hi everybody I'm experiencing some problems when connecting from a x2go client running on a laptop with Ubuntu 14.04. I've seen similar issues in other threads, but I've not found any complete solution. I can connect to x2go server in fullscreen mode without problems. I can switch to client laptop desktop if I click on the right upper corner of the screen. But many times (not allways) I cannot come back to x2go client. I can see the task running in Unity launcher, but I cannot switch to it, even if I press CTRL-Tab. I've found a partial solution: CTRL+ALT+F changes to widowed mode, so whenever I want to go back to x2go client I can click on the task in the launcher and press CTR+ALT+F again to be in fullscreen mode. But, something strange occurs with my laptop desktop, that is, when I press ALT+TAB I can't see the tasks lists. I hope I've been clear enough.

X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.1-20141214 is now available
by Michael DePaulo 14 Dec '14

14 Dec '14

Hi Windows users, I just released the 1st Windows build of 4.0.3.1, 4.0.3.1-20141214 (today's date = 2014-12-14). http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/releases/4.0.3.1-2014… http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:release-notes-mswin:x2goclient-4.0.3.1 Little has changed in terms of the X2Go Client code for 4.0.3.1: http://lists.x2go.org/pipermail/x2go-announcements/2014/000226.html And due to me being busy, none of the 3rd-party dependencies (e.g., VcXsrv) have been updated yet. -Mike#2

cannot send ctrl+s key combo
by George David 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

I use my Mac at home to connect to my linux box at work using xfce. I use emacs and Eclipse with emacs key mappings and using CTRL+S comes up quite often. Is CTRL+S a key combo that x2go uses or filters out?

x2goserver Active Directory User Login Issue
by Jason Scalia 11 Dec '14

11 Dec '14

Hello, I am currently running x2goserver on a RHEL 6.6 x64 instance. I am able to login with a local user fine, but receive an "access denied" message when I try to use an Active Directory authenticated user. I confirmed on the RHEL host that I can SSH in with the AD creds for the user, I can also login with a local user using x2goclient without issue. I have tried the x2goclient on OS X 10.9.5, Windows Server 2012 x64, Windows 7 x64, and even tried from the RHEL 6.6 x64 server instance with no luck. I have x2goserver set to loglevel=debug. There are no logs populated that I can see in the user's homedir for the session. If someone can point me in the right direction perhaps regarding this issue it would be greatly appreciated, from googling and checking the archives it looks like this has been done successfully, but I am at a loss here. Any and all help is appreciated.

Pulseaudio doesn't start on Win7
by Ralf 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

Hello list, greetings! I have the following setup runing: A docker-container providing a rudimental desktop (fluxbox on debian) A Win7PC which gets the desktop using x2Go. All is working as expected but the pulseaudio server on the win7-client doesn't start automatically. If I use an external pulseaudio.exe with an lightly modified default.pa the pulseaudio-sever starts. After that "trick" I have to edit .pulse-client.conf in my docker-container for sending audio to my win7-pulseserver and it will work. The drawback is: I cannot use the ssh-tunnel from x2go for the audio ... it is not established cause of the missing port of the not startet "internal" pulseserver. Is there a chance to give an modified default.pa to the "internal" pulseaudio-server of the x2go-client or even better: is it possible to use an "external" pulseaudio.exe with the x2go-client? The next "problem" for an automated workaround (starting pulseaudio with script prior to the x2go-client) is, that the x2go-client seems to use port 4714 for untunneled connections. Does someone now the parameter for changing the pulseaudio-serverport from 4713 to 4714 for the pulse-audio-windows-version 1.1? This is the most "dirty" hack ... but should do the work in this case. The other way round is of course although possible: change the port the x2go-client expects his "internal" server. This way the .pulse-client.conf in the docker-desktop would be build correct for this szenario. Maye someone point me the direction? Uhhh ... its long ago I have written text in english Have a nice day!!

Windows 8.1 - shortcuts being caught by windows
by Glen Winters 03 Dec '14

03 Dec '14

Hello, I'm brand new to using x2go today. I'm connecting from Windows 8.1 to Ubuntu 14.04 and using the openbox session. Whenever I hit the windows key, the start menu in Windows pops up. It seems that my remote session is not receiving the key or Windows is getting it first. I tried the following settings for the X-Server written in a blog post: -rootless -notrayicon -clipboard -keyhook Using keyhook would supposedly send all keystrokes to the sesssion unless the mouse was outside the session window. That doesn't seem to help at all. Any suggestions for what to try? Thanks, Glen

Fwd: Fwd: Instant-Debian image for thin-clients
by Andreas Gläser 30 Nov '14

30 Nov '14

Hi, all, I tried out your software today on Debian/testing. See my report there: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=761398 You can also try out my Debian-Image for thinclients, see below: -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Instant-Debian image for thin-clients Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2014 07:43:53 +0200 From: Andreas Gläser <andreas.glaeser(a)vodafone.de> To: Image-download-link: https://storage.demo.synnefo.org/public/YTXni05cyUpEHf9oUE5dw5 Cucumber-flavoured instant Linux, just add water ... ==================================================== This is the legacy version of my instant-wheezy image. It should be workable for most 32-bit PCs, most thin-clients with or without PAE, and it also should work with any NIC, or in virtual machines. The most common criticism about Debian stable is the outdated software, so backported packages were pinned to be preferred over otherwise stable versions, and the default 3.2-kernel was removed. Minimum hardware requirements are: 256 MB RAM, 512 MB recommended, 400 MHz i486-CPU, 16 GB CompactFlash or bootable USB2. Instructions: -Extract the image, then dd it on CompactFlash-card or onto USB2-memory-stick: $ unxz instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img.xz $ dd if=instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img of=/dev/sdx -in order to use Privoxy from localhost, basic configuration is required, example files are provided. -then configure the browser to use localhost on port 8118 as proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS. -when using it as web-proxy from the LAN, typically a static IP has to be set for the server and the listen-address accordingly. instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img.xz =============================== md5sum: 4a41fa6c59153aa0fa944791b52bd38c sha256sum: 9e68dbb39d81cca6c283398cde505bcde8809f5be7431276f427ee4b0c08bd69 file size: 1974881212 bytes uncompresed: 15931539456 bytes root-pw: wheezy user-pw: user =============================== Included Packages: linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-486 linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-686-pae iceweasel release 31.1 task-xfce-desktop task-lxde-desktop liferea abiword gnumeric streamtuner2 streamripper audacious vlc rhythmbox icedove esr enigmail iceowl-extension claws-mail claws-mail-spam-report claws-mail-pgpmime claws-mail-pgpinline gnupg2 seahorse privoxy xul-ext-adblock-plus iceweasel-adblock-plus midori epiphany-browser browser-plugin-vlc hardinfo gparted pidgin pidgin-microblog transmission remmina imagemagick TODO: -make metapackage for easier setup -make 64-bit version

Sound Issues (One Client)
by senrabdet＠aol.com 28 Nov '14

28 Nov '14

Hi All: I am having trouble with x2go audio on a windows client (win pro 32 bit; x2go 4.0.2.1, though have tried 3.1 as well; x2go server is on Wheezy with Mate). Initially, I thought an upgrade server side was the problem but I can get the sound to work on two other windows clients connected to the same server (same ssh etc), so I'm inclined at the moment to think it's this particular client machine. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling x2go and copying the .pulse-cookie from a working machine into various folders on the problem one without success. FYI can open the sound control to make sure the levels are up, and see on the working machines that it finds a sound card but doesn't do so on the problem client. Any suggestions? Is this the pulse audio bug I've read about on the net? Am wondering too if this could be some sort of driver issue on the laptop in question, though the sound works on the native OS (as opposed to the x2go connection). I use x2go a lot, so I figure this is worth figuring out as having run into it once, it may happen again. Thanks!

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.
