x2go Client on Max OS X
by Markus Peter 03 Aug '11

03 Aug '11

Hi all, Sorry to bother you with my minor problem... I'm using x2go between my Linux machines without any problems, great piece of software. Thanks for this to the developers! The only problem: when I'm connecting from my Mac to the Linux machines, the keyboard is mapped incorrectly. I also tried changing the keyboard settings in the x2go client and X11 on the Mac, to no avail. The mouse is working correctly. On your mailing-list, I didn't found a similar problem nor a solution for my problem nor on the dev mailing-list. My environment: Mac: OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) x2go client: 3.01-4 / Qt 4.4.3) X11: XQuartz 2.3.6 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple56) Linux: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid) x2go server and client: 3.0.1 As a swiss guy, I'm using swiss german keyboard layout on all machines Any tips to adjust the keyboard setting on the mac client? Thanks in advance. Markus -- Markus PETER Schönenbachstrasse 37 CH-4153 Reinach powered by linux

x2gousers is missing?
by Patrick Willam 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hi all! :-D <blah> Recently i'm taking my time to get my Personal Computers in a more useable and productive state. A very important part of this process/project is getting X2go to run on my systems. </blah> After installing X2go on my main machine (details: see below) i wanted to use it, of course. But when trying to start a session via x2goclient i get no further than while connecting an error dialog appears with this messeage: "Please install this program as SUID x2gouser!" So i thought: maybe there is an issue with the installation process of the packets, and some rights have to be adjusted manually afterwards. But the problem seems to be that a file called "x2gouser" is missing at all!? $> dpkg -L x2goagent x2goclient x2goserver x2goserver-extension \ | grep x2gouser ...gives nothing. Any help/hints on this is very much appreciated. Best wishes, happy hacking and greetings to Treuchtlingen & Kiel! Patrick ps: I `frankensteined´ the "perl-suid" package from "squeeze" using "Depends: perl (>= 5.10.1), libc6 (>= 2.4), libperl5.10 | libperl5.12 | libperl5.14" and installed this manually to get "x2goserver" installed on wheezy/sid.

x2go Mac OS X Lion 10.7
by Neil Hunt 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Bad news to x2go users who have reliance on a mac client. I upgraded to Lion, which has finally left Rosetta/PowerPC emulation in the dust since Apple has begun moving away from it six years ago, and when I went to connect to my x2go server, I immediately get the error: "You can't open the application nxproxy because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." NoMachine NX 3.5 runs strictly on PowerPC and Rosetta emulation and thus is no longer compatible with Lion. NX4 runs on Intel natively and will run on 10.7 Lion. There is the OpenNX client for Mac which I've tested on Lion and connects to my FreeNX server no problem. So the nxproxy library must somewhere be ported to Intel-based Lion architecture? Please advise, we have quite a few users who use x2go mac client and I need to have a support plan for Lion migrations. Thanks, Neil

x2goclient version bumping -> 3.99.0.0
by Mike Gabriel 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

Hi devs, today I had a chat with Alex about x2goclient, the versioning, the next major version (Baikal) of x2goclient, etc. o we have bumped the version to 3.99.0.0 in Git o the next major stable release will be 4.0.0.0 (x2goclient/Baikal) o Oleksandr will build a Windows x2goclient with that same version number Packages for Debian are building currently, they will enter the nightly builds repos as well as the ,,main'' repos. Please go ahead and test these new versions, please. Report issues to the x2go-dev mailing list, so that we get as many issues fixed before calling the thing 4.0.0.0.

core dev-team testing x2goclient during next week
by Mike Gabriel 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

Hi all, thanks to everyone (esp. to John) for taking such a meticulous look at the latest x2goclient 3.99.0.0 (Win32 version). There obviously seem to be quite some open issues that we have to cross-check on our own development/testing systems. Alex (the core developer of x2goclient) will do that ASAP, we hope to come up with some feedback, patches, comments by the end of next week. If that gets delayed, I will let you know about the delay and come up with another timeline. Unfortunately, as X2go is not a commercial project, this cannot be any quicker. We apologize for this!!! If there are people out there you can read/write C code, please feel free to clone git://code.x2go.org/x2goclient.git and cross-read the code. Some other problems, however, may arise from x2goagent, as well. So you might use git://code.x2go.org/x2goagent.git for lecture as well...

RDP packing
by John A. Sullivan III 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Hello, all. We are still trying to address the very poor performance of rdesktop sessions transmitted over NX - much slower than native RDP although we were expecting it to be much faster. In reading the NX documentation, we saw that they have a packing algorithm especially for RDP. However, whenever we enable this packing algorithm, the session aborts. Has anyone successfully used it? How do we troubleshoot this issue? Thanks - John

Fairly severe problems for our Windows users
by John A. Sullivan III 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

Hello, all. Internally, we are almost exclusively a Linux desktop shop and our experiences with X2Go are simply amazing. We architected a very powerful back end and the applications just explode on the screen even though all of them are across WAN connections. The X2Go performance is generally much better than our local systems. However, most of our initial clients are Windows users (for the X2Go client) and they are continually complaining about bad performance to the point we have stopped major new rollouts. We bit the bullet and installed Windows on our local systems and . . . they are right. The Windows client performance is much worse. I'll outline what I have seen but I have seen it consistently in 3.0.1-4, 3.0.1.18 with Xming, and 3.0.1.18 with vcxsrv. I also tried Pyhoca (0.7) but it kept mangling my authentication so I cannot report on it. There are two different types of problems. The first is generally laggard response. Typing, screen refreshes, scrolling - everything is generally slower. I would guess this is simply because we must shim a local X server between NX and GDI and it may simply be the way life is. I was hoping it would not be so noticeable. The second problem is far worse, however. It seems that sometimes screen painting of the active application stalls. Again, we've seen this on all three platforms described above. We most often see this in Iceweasel (we are using Debian X2Go Servers). Users will have multiple tabs open and will switch from one or the other or from one widget in an Ajax application to another and nothing happens for literally a minute or two. They can switch to other applications and work there so this is not simply packet loss on the line. The application itself does not update the screen. After a minute or two, everything they typed or the results or their mouse clicks all appear. This is the killer issue right along with the disappearing mouse. We cannot have our users wait for a minute or two every few minutes while they are working on their applications. Again, they can move to a different application and work but their previously active application, usually Iceweasel, just pauses and then catches all events up a minute or so later. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot and fix this? Thanks - John

My current test environment is 32 bit Windows XP. We have another user testing 64 bit Windows 7. Most of the complaining users are 32 bit Windows XP. The disappearing mouse pointer is an Xming bug. Moving to vcxsrv will solve that. I think 3.0.1.14 was the first to support that but I'm not sure. We are also using an old X2Go Server - 3.0.1-5 I believe. Thanks - John

DRI role in x2go
by Shanon Loughton 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

Hi Im trying to understand how DRI works with a linux server display device and x2go. Id like to get opengl rendering completely in software on an Ubuntu server and so far so good - ive installed libgl1-mesa-swx11 which in Ubuntu auto removes libgl1-mesa-glx, and 'glxgears' and 'glmark' run nicely through x2go, considering the HW limitations. For some more complicated applications inc wine im running into openGL errors and im curious if any part of the server's X is still trying to direct render anything? I read somewhere that in the xorg.conf I can locate the device and set "NoAccel" to true which disables DRI and forces ARB shaders or something. Would this be worthwhile? thanks Shanon

x2go und gpg-agent - no decryption of emails via kmail possible
by Stefan 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Hi all, using x2goclient 3.0.99 on debian squeeze (client and server) together with kmail I run into a problem decrypting emails via gnupg. Unlike as with a Xserver-Session there seems not to be a startscript for gpg- agent in x2goserver. But if I start gpg-agent by hand using command "gpg-agent --daemon" still kmail can't decrypt emails. Starting the gpg-agent with the same command on a xsession initiated with "X -query SERVER" it works. One possible reason I guess in wrong environment variables for $DISPLAY - so the pinentry-qt4 gui (or any other pinentry-gui) could not start. So kmail ends up in "wrong passphrase". This problem allready went up in x2go on debian lenny. But the old kmail on lenny brought it's own frontend for decrypting mails without gpg-agent as a fallback - so it was at least possible to read encrypted emails - even if you had to submit your passphrase on every email again (because it's only remembered through gpg-agent). Any Ideas? Regards Stefan

Building X2GoClient from source
by John A. Sullivan III 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

Hello, all. I must be tired, brain-cramping, or clueless. I'm trying to put x2goclient onto a Fedora 15 installation. I compiled nxproxy and nxcomp fine once I figured out the dependencies and symlinked nxcomp-version to nxcomp so nxproxy could fine NX.h. But I then downloaded the x2goclient 3.0.1.18 tarball. I did not see a configure file, a make script, or any templates. I did notice several project files so I downloaded kdevelop to open the project files. I've not used Kdevelop4 before (dinosaur that I am). It only wanted to open the x2goclient-libssh.kdev4 project file. However, it cannot build it and there is nothing to create the configure/make files. How does one build this x2goclient from source? Thanks - John

Da jedoch, wie ich weiß, ein Großteil der Entwickler von X2GO aus Deutschland kommt, hoffe ich, dass mir trotzdem geholfen werden kann. Dafür möchte ich mich bereits im Voraus bedanken. Jetzt zum Grund meine Anfrage. Wir nutzen schon seit einiger Zeit X2GO und sind damit sehr zufrieden. Alles hat bisher sehr gut und problemlos funktioniert. Das hat sich jedoch leider geändert. Fehlerbeschreibung: Heute habe ich damit begonnen unsere Testserver von der "alten" x2go-Server Version (3.0.1-5) auf die neue Version (3.0.99.5-0~49~lucid1) umzustellen. Hierzu habe zunächst die alte Version gelöscht (purge) und dann die neue Version, wie im Wiki beschrieben, installiert. Beim Test des Servers habe ich dann folgenden Fehler festgestellt: Wird sich auf dem x2go-Server mittels x2go-Client angemeldet, eine Applikation wie z. B. Libreoffice gestartet und dort dann ein Zeichen unter Verwendung der <Alt Gr>-Taste wie z. b. | oder @ eingegeben, so ist ab diesem Zeitpunkt keine "normale" Texteingabe mehr möglich. Auf dem Bildschirm sind jetzt bei jedem Tastendruck nur noch "Hieroglyphen" zu sehen (Screenshots kann ich bei Bedarf gerne übersenden). Einzige Abhilfe schafft eine Ab-/Neuanmeldung am x2go-Server. Das beschriebene Procedere habe ich an mehreren x2go-Clients (Ubuntu 10.04 und 11.04) und mehreren Servern (Ubuntu 10.04 und 11.04) getestet. Der Fehler ist unabhängig von der x2go-Client Version (getestet mit Vers.3.01-5, 3.0.1.18-0~56~lucid, 3.0.1.18-0~56~natty), tritt aber nur bei der Serverversion 3.0.99.5-0~49 (lucid u. natty) auf. Die Tests habe ich an neu aufgesetzten Maschinen und an "upgedateten" Rechnern durchgeführt. Das Ergebnis ist immer das gleiche. Hier die installierten (x2go)-Pakete eines "Problem"-Servers: (dpkg -l | grep x2go) ii cups-x2go 3.0.0.2-0~33~lucid1 ii x2goagent 3.4.0.5-0~40~lucid1 ii x2gognomebindings 2.0.1.1-0~16~lucid1 ii x2goserver 3.0.99.5-0~49~lucid1 Hier die installierten (x2go)-Pakete eines funktionierenden Servers: (dpkg -l | grep x2go) ii cups-x2go 3.0.0 ii nxcompshad 3.4.0-1 ii pinentry-x2go 0.7.5-2 ii x2goagent 3.4.0-3-1 ii x2goclient 3.01-5 ii x2gognomebindings 2.0.1-1 ii x2goprint 3.0.0-1 ii x2goserver 3.0.1-5 ii x2goserver-home 3.0.1-1 ii x2goserver-one 3.0.1-1 Was mache ich falsch, bzw. was habe ich vergessen? Nochmals vielen Dank für die Unterstützung Viele Grüße Stefan Lambert

Kde4.6 x2goplasmoid
by Mirco Rohloff 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

Hello, i want to use the x2goplasmoidbindings on my Kubuntu with KDE4.6. So it is no problem to install the deb pakage. But i can't figure out how this will work. When i put the plasmoid on my Desktop i have a big box with a small toggle switch in. If I press it the session go to sleep. This works good but is not really nice. If I put the X2go Plasmoid in the Kicker-Taskbar i have resice it very high to see it in the bar. That is not usable. Screenshot: http://www.rohloff.de/fileadmin/rohloffde/tmp/kde_plasmoid.png Is there anybody who can give me some tips how this thing can be integrated in the Kde4.6-Desktop. Maybe like the X2go-Gnome Switch near the Logout button! Thanks Mirco

Mac client 'Can't connect to X-Server'
by Paul Northug 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

Thank you to the developers for make this excellent software. Many people at my work use x2go's Mac client. We have never been able to figure out how to resolve the 'Can't connect to X-Server' error without random acts (eg. rebooting). We are not sure why it comes up. This is what I do: 1. Start X11.app 2. ssh -X remotehost 3. xterm & So far this works, I get an xterm so there is nothing wrong with X11 4. Start X2Go client 5. Start a session (port 22, dsa authentication, Gnome...) 6. Client gives the error and hangs (Abort and Terminate don't do anything) and I have to close the application. The closest we got to figuring it out is that the X11.app possibly changes it's DISPLAY on restarts and perhaps the x2go client is expecting display 0. Is there any more debugging information that I could get from the client to see what exactly it is doing prior to giving the error message? We have tried some of the suggestions in the forums, such as changing permissions in X11.app (this is necessary), starting it manually before starting the client. We have also done things like messed with firewall settings, made sure hostname doesn't change on our laptops between work and home, deleted preference files, delete XAuthority files, etc. What seems to work is rebooting. Thanks, Pål

X2go backport packages for Debian lenny
by Mike Gabriel 04 Jul '11

04 Jul '11

Hi all, Dick Kniep from the Lindix company in the Netherlands has sponsored the backporting of X2go server-side packages to Debian lenny. As many of you still use lenny on the servers, I persuaded him to make this a contribution to the community. That is: you can use this APT line to install recent X2go packages on Debian lenny: deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian lenny main NOTE: we will not backport the client-side packages. This is only for the X2go servers. Unfortunately there will neither be a backport of x2gokde3bindings, which has not been moved into X2go Git.

Hi Ian, I've added x2go-user list to this reply since I'm not sure if this is something for the devs. > ** > > I have been able to connect using windows client version 3.01-4 but not > with 3.01-18**** > > ** > 3.01-18 has never worked for me, it just won't connect succesfully. The latest version that seems to work well is 3.01-13, you can download it here: http://www.x2go.org/deb/pool-untested/x2goclient/x2goclient-3.01-13-setup.e… Cheers, Daniel

Error in the packet x2gognomebindings - Fehler im Paket x2gognomebindings
by Mario Eberlein 01 Jul '11

Hi list, Unfortunately I can not speak English and have therefore used the Goolgle translator. The message appears, therefore, again in German, in the hope that it may be true but from someone gelsesen. I have a problem with the package x2gognomebindings (from https://launchpad.net/ ~ x2go) It generates on my system, Ubuntu 10.10 a Languagemix e.g. When right-clicking a desktop icon, there are three English entries: - Make Link - Move to Trash - Restore Icons Original Size In addition to trash even the entry - Empty Trash The possible deletion message appears completely in English. Nautilus has the entries Back - Forward - Up - Search in English, the rest is German. X2go I use daily and would be happy if it could be a solution of the problem. Sincerely, Mario Eberlein ###### deutsche Meldung ######## Hallo Liste, ich kann leider kein Englisch und habe daher den Goolge Übersetzer benutzt. Die Meldung erscheint daher auch noch einmal in Deutsch, in der Hoffnung das es so doch von jemanden richtig gelsesen werden kann. Ich habe ein Problem mit dem Paket x2gognomebindings (aus https://launchpad.net/~x2go) Es erzeugt auf meinem System Ubuntu 10.10 einen Sprachmix z.B Bei Rechtsklick auf ein Desktopsymbol finden sich drei englische Einträge: - Make Link - Move to Trash - Restore Icons Orginal Size zudem bei Mülleimer noch der Eintrag - Empty Trash Die eventuelle Löschmeldung erscheint vollständig auf englisch. Nautilus hat die Einträge Back - Forward - Up - Search auf englisch, der Rest ist deutsch. Ich nutze X2go täglich und würde mich freuen wenn es eine Lösung des Problemes geben könnte. Mit freundlichem Gruß Mario Eberlein
