Usability with latency ~200ms
by Stefan.Klingner＠brodos.de 14 Nov '11

Hi, we are trying to use X2Go to provide a devolpment environment for our employees in India. The problem is that the connection to India is really bad (latency ~200ms) and so working with X2Go is currently not possible. Is there a way to improve the performance on the X2Go client/server configuration? Does anybody have experience with such a szenario? Please help.

Stephan, Thank you so much for those steps. Indeed, it worked great for me and I can now promote migration to Lion at our company as well as continue to recommend x2go. FYI, I did get that error Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key, but your suggested command worked out. Not sure how you figured this all out but I sure do appreciate it!

LAN connection slow

Hi, the x2go clients offer LAN as the fastest connection type. Though we have a gigabit Lan here, this connection type is much slower than DSL or WAN. How comes? Regards, Ralph

NX workaround packages, temporarily SOLVES: crashing X2Go sessions
by Mike Gabriel 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

Dear all, (resending this mail to x2go-user, x2go-dev, corrected mail address of announcement list, fixed minor inaccuracies of the first version sent to the lists) as many of you have reported, there are major issues with the version of NoMachine's NX libraries that are currently provided on packages.x2go.org and in X2Go's Ubuntu Launchpad. The occurring crashes of X2Go sessions do not relate to the code itself but to the way the code (from X2Go Git) currently is built (i.e. compiled and packaged). Only five weeks ago, Alex, Reinhard and Mike could narrow the problems down to the build method being used. The issues probably also apply to the way other NX related projects build their (Debian-ic) packages. So, if anyone needs more details on this, feel free to contact us on this list. As a matter of fact, we currently can't consider the available NX libraries provided on packages.x2go.org (with obvious effect on x2goagent) as ,,stable'' at all; session crashes can easily be reproduced on various setups. Certain actions within the X2Go session cause naughty reconnect or disconnect messages for the client user and many times the sessions die seemingly without reason. This problem is due to NX libraries being built against the distribution's X server development files and not against the development files of nx-X11 (Xserver provided by NoMachine). Unfortunately, the former build method, however, has been state-of-the-art for the Debian-like packages ever since. We are working on a new way of building those packages, see below. As there have been many complaints we'll respond by offering intermediate packages that do not contain these problems. However, these packages have been built in a non-Debian state-of-the-art way and the solution provided from us is only a temporary workaround until we have solved the package build method for these packages. Alex has built packages using a non-Git based build environment, one we used before we changed to working with Git. The provided packages have the same package names as found in Git, they also have a slightly higher version number so your systems will upgrade easily if you use the ,,workaround'' package set: libxcomp3 libxcompext3 libxcompshad3 These new packages should do their job well, as we can't reproduce the reported crashes with them anymore. Currently, we are working with high pressure on cleanly-built NX packages (see: Git project nx-libs.git, test branch, also x2goagent.git, test branch), so that we can provide Git based NX packages soon again. DEBIAN ====== If you want to use those packages on Debian, please make sure that you have deb http://packages.x2go.org/debain squeeze main (or wheezy main, sid main) as package source configured in your APT system. If that is the case simply upgrade the above named packages and then you should get the workaround NX packages installed. $ apt-get update $ apt-get install libxcomp3 libxcompext3 libxcompshad3 If encountering errors during installation, also make sure to uninstall all development packages around NX libs before upgrading to the workaround package set: $ apt-get remove libxcomp-dev libxcompshad-dev libxcompext-dev $ apt-get remove libxcomp3-dbg libxcompshad3-dbg libxcompext3-dbg We'll keep the NX workaround packages in the "main" area of our Debian repos as long as needed. You'll still have access to the git based packages using the "heuler" area. (deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian squeeze heuler). UBUNTU ====== For people who use Ubuntu GNU/Linux and install X2Go from Launchpad the solution is not as simple. We have provided tar.gz files containing the needed packages. Download the tar.gz file appropriate for your Ubuntu version from http://packages.x2go.org/nx-3.5-workaround/ubuntu/ Extract your downloaded tarball (=tar.gz file) and install packages manually (e.g. for Ubuntu oneiric): $ mkdir ubuntu-x2go $ cd ubuntu-x2go $ wget http://packages.x2go.org/nx-3.5-workaround/ubuntu/nx-3.5-workaround_ubuntu-… $ tar -xvzf nx-3.5-workaround_ubuntu-oneiric.tar.gz $ eval $(dpkg-architecture -s) $ dpkg -i *${DEB_HOST_ARCH}*.deb When encountering problems, also make sure to remove the development packages around NX before installation of the workaround packages: $ apt-get remove libxcomp-dev libxcompshad-dev libxcompext-dev $ apt-get remove libxcomp3-dbg libxcompshad3-dbg libxcompext3-dbg This is a temporary solution for the time we can't guarantee that the Git based built packages are stable. From our perspective stability should come first, but of course we will try hard to solve the build problem so that we can use our X2Go Git based build environment for NX libs, as well (again).

no session resume
by Ralph Sikau 05 Nov '11

05 Nov '11

Hello, I'm using the x2goserver (latest version) on a virtual xen machine running an LMDE desktop. The strange behavior is that the x2go sessions are never resumed but whenever I login, a new session is created and all programs have to be started again. The client is a Windows XP PC, and it makes no difference whether I use the windows client or the pyhoca gui to connect. Can anybody tell me what is going wrong here? Regards, Ralph

x2gothinclient: compression and sound
by Michael Hierweck 05 Nov '11

05 Nov '11

Hi all, I'm trying to (re)migrate our thin clients (Intel Atom 1.6 GHz) from plain X11/XDMCP to x2go again using the latestet Debian Packages (Squeeze). First of all I wonder about the recommended compression mode and level. With link type LAN and compression nopack I experience heavy CPU usage on the (thin) client side (20% Xorg and 30% x2goclient) while reading mails and even more latency than I experienced with plain X11 before. Furthermore sound forwarding does not work even though it is active in the session setup. pulseaudio configuration and cookie has been set: $ export |grep PULSE declare -x PULSE_CLIENTCONFIG="/home/michael/.x2go/C-michael-53-1320436144_stDGNOME_dp16/.pulse-client.conf" $ cat $PULSE_CLIENTCONFIG default-server=localhost:30002 cookie-file=.x2go/C-michael-53-1320436144_stDGNOME_dp16/.pulse-cookie x2go seems to bind to some ports, 30002, too: # netstat -tupen |grep 1004 tcp 0 8 127.0.0.1:38073 127.0.0.1:30001 ESTABLISHED 1004 3080993 18624/sshd: michael tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:38338 127.0.0.1:30002 ESTABLISHED 1004 3083062 19032/gnome-volume- tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:30001 127.0.0.1:38073 ESTABLISHED 1004 3080994 18815/x2goagent tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:30002 127.0.0.1:38338 ESTABLISHED 1004 3083063 18887/sshd: michael But this is what paplay tells when invoked from a terminal inside the x2go session: $ paplay -v /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Startup_new.wav Opening a playback stream with sample specification 's16le 2ch 22050Hz' and channel map 'front-left,front-right'.

hi there, i want to use x2go on a sles11 and opensuse 11.4 system. I've installed it from repositories but now i need a documentation how to configure x2go. Is there anything ? I get an erro if i try to connect from my client to the server: Verbindung fehlgeschlagen Schreibfehler: /home/username/.x2go/ssh/socaskpassFGIS4V But this file would be randomized created so it won't work to "touch" it. Next file could be named "socaskpassHSDF6K" Foldersettings are 700 Are there some spezial settings for running x2goclient_gtk ? what to do here ? regards sebastian

Support for extra mouse buttons?
by Benjamin Shadwick 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

Hello. I have a mouse with 5 buttons (left, right, wheel click, and two thumb buttons) and a scroll wheel on my Windows machine that runs x2goclient v3.99.0.1 under Windows 7 Pro x64, and I use it to connect to a Xubuntu 11.10 x64 machine running x2goserver 3.0.99.7-0~352~oneiric1 from the x2go stable PPA. I noticed that the 3 main buttons and scroll wheel work fine, but the two thumb buttons seem to do nothing. When I use Xubuntu locally on my laptop with a 5-button mouse, the thumb buttons act like the back/forward buttons in Firefox, but they do nothing in Firefox on my headless workstation over x2go. I've noticed that most VNC software on any platform(s) suffers from this as well, while RDP usually supports those extra buttons. Is there a hack that I can employ to get this working, or (even better) could x2go possibly be enhanced to support this by default? Thanks, - Ben S.

Gives a popup that says, "The host key for this server was not found but an othertype of key exists.An attacker might change the default server key toconfuse your client into thinking the key does not exist." Doing a search, no one seems to have had this problem before. Any ideas?

Forward USB using USB IP
by Michael Hierweck 19 Oct '11

19 Oct '11

Hi x2go folks, this topic already last year: http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/x2go-dev/2010-September/001087.html Recent linux kernel provide support for USB forwarding over IP (kernel config: CONFIG_USB_IP_COMMON/CONFIG_USB_IP_HOST). Has anyone tried to make use of this feature in conjunction with x2go? Of course xygo *does* provide support for usb mass storage and printers. But usbip appears to be a low level devices driver that should support almost any device types. Integration with x2go should not be too hard as x2go already supports secure portforward/tunneling which is required by usbib (in untrusted environments).

However, due to the way x2go deals with logon process, it seems that the pam scripts are called five times, and so I get the home dir mounted five times ! The homedirs are stored on a samba/openldap PDC servers. I wanted to know if anyone of you had some trick to avoid the redondant mounting. I pasted below the revelant files. /etc/secutiry/pam_mount.conf.xml ================== <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE pam_mount SYSTEM "pam_mount.conf.xml.dtd"> <pam_mount> <debug enable="1" /> <volume user="*" fstype="cifs" server="srvfichiers" path="%(USER)" mountpoint="/home/homes/%(USER)/" options="uid=%(USER),workgroup=MYDOMAIN" /> <mntoptions allow="nosuid,nodev,nonempty,allow_root" /> <mntoptions require="nosuid,nodev" /> <mkmountpoint enable="1" remove="true" /> </pam_mount> ==================== /etc/pam.d/common-auth ====================== auth [success=2 default=ignore] pam_unix.so nullok_secure try_first_pass auth [success=1 default=ignore] pam_ldap.so use_first_pass auth requisite pam_deny.so auth required pam_permit.so auth optional pam_mount.so ====================== /etc/pam.d/common-session ========================== session [default=1] pam_permit.so session requisite pam_deny.so session required pam_permit.so session required pam_unix.so session optional pam_ck_connector.so nox11 session required pam_mkhomedir.so silent skel=/etc/skel.empty session optional pam_mount.so session optional pam_ldap.so ======================= -- Denis Cardon Tranquil IT Systems 44 bvd des pas enchantés 44230 Saint Sébastien sur Loire tel : +33 (0) 2.40.97.57.57 http://www.tranquil-it-systems.fr

Hello, I saw a post about some modifications that were made to the pyhoca-gui client that would allow x2go to run on OS X Lion. Could someone provide more info on how to download this so I can test it a bit? Thanks, Neil

New X2go releases (as of 2011-10-12)
by Mike Gabriel 12 Oct '11

12 Oct '11

Hi all, two weeks ago the X2go project developers team has agreed on releasing X2go source projects in shorter release intervals than before. The goal of this is to make new code and X2go features available to the community sooner rather then later and to provide more clarity on what is considered stable and up-to-date and what not. The plan is to release code that - we consider as stable - has been tested by more than one person and - has not been changed in X2go Git for more than 14 days the upcoming Wednesday. As this is the first release shot we will take (after a long time with only irregurlar releases), the changelogs of the individual projects are quite long. Feel free to study these changelog (at the end of this mail) or not. The released source projects of this Wednesday (2011-10-12) are: CLIENT: - x2goclient (3.99.0.1) - pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.1) - python-x2go (0.1.1.18) - x2gothinclient (v1.0.1.3) SERVER: - x2goserver (3.0.99.6) - x2gognomebindings (2.0.1.3) - x2golxdebindings (1.0.1.1) - x2godesktopsharing (3.0.1.3) - cups-x2go (3.0.0.3) Stable packages for Debian/Ubuntu are currently building, a Windows and Debian Armel installer/package of x2goclient will follow within the next days. For server-side packages we will also provide lenny backports within the next week. Please take a good look at the changelogs before upgrading your systems, rather test on a non-production server first, if unsure. The X2go team does not give you any warranties if anything fails with your environment (we simply give our best to provide you with stable code). Greets+HaveFun, Mike Gabriel PS: the changelogs... x2goclient (3.99.0.1-0~x2go1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version (3.99.0.1): - Set TCP_NODELAY (equals: turn Nagle off) for SSH graphical port forwarding tunnel. - Include cups/ppd.h in cupsprint.h, fixes build on Debian wheezy/sid. - Add build_man/clean_man stanzas to Makefile. * Explicitly use source format 3.0 (native). * Build-depend on libssh-dev (>=0.4.7). * Update menu file in /debian folder (rename title to ,,X2go Client (Qt)''). * Do not run man2html from rules file anymore. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 12 Oct 2011 11:11:50 +0200 pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.1-0~x2go1) unstable; urgency=low [ Oleksandr Shneyder ] * Set font size in pinentry dialog to 14 -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 12 Oct 2011 10:42:21 +0200 x2gothinclient (1.0.1.3-0~x2go1.1) unstable; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] New upstream version (1.0.1.3): - Split up x2gocdmanager package into x2gocdmanager and x2gothinshutdown package - Fix USB mounting, CD mounting, - Improve code layout (tab stops, inline comments) - Add HTTP_PROXY and FTP_PROXY support to x2gothinclientmanagement (APT package download) - Add example files/symlinks for tftpboot environment. - Add syslinux boot splash with X2go flavour. - Install 486 and 686 kernels in TCE chroot. - Move PXE tftpboot examples to x2gothinclient/share/tftpboot. - Improval of syslinux boot screen. - Add x2gothinclient_preptftpboot script. - Add man page for x2gothinclient_preptftpboot. - Do not run management script if there is a problem with the X2go TCE chroot. - Sanity checks: X2go TCE management script have to run as root. - Add HTTPS_PROXY support. - Add x2gothinclient_cleanup script. - Add man page for x2gothinclient_cleanup. - Run x2gothinclient_init from x2gothinclientd init script. - Fix udev rules path in x2gosmartcardrules, improval of udev script, plus man page. - Fix udev rules path in x2gousbmount. - Add comment that names possible boot profiles to tftp config template. - Add kernel module blacklisting for x2gothinclient_create. - Tweak mtab diversion on X2go Thin Client to avoid error messages. - Add some more PXE/TFTP info at end of x2gothinclient_pretftpboot script. - Disable service restarts in chroot. - Add a ,,hit <RETURN> before TCE creation. - Add tmpfs mount for /var/lib/dbus. - Reduce x2goclient CPU load from ~100% to ~0-1%. - Boot TCE kernel with nomodeset boot option to avoid gCard incompatibilities (Fb vs. Xorg). - Move kernel/initrd symlinks after install rather than copying. - Add detection of kernel upgrades to x2gothinclient_upgrade script. - Adapt chroot file created by x2gothinclient_upgrade, escaping $-signs. - Use --no-session-edit option when starting x2goclient on TCE. - Delay thinshutdown button appearance for 4+6 seconds on X server (re)start (that is: 10s on tce start or X server restart and 4s after session logout). - Add post-run instructions of x2gothinclient_preptftpboot to its man page. * Add acpid to x2gothinclient's Recommends: section. * Remove ssh (=openssh-server) dependency for x2gothinclient package. * Add memtest86+ to x2gothinclient's Recommends: section. * Add midnight commander to Recommends: of x2gothinclient. * x2gothinshutdown: conflicts x2gocdmanager<=1.0.1.2.

Re: [X2go-User] x2go client errors under Windows 7
by Benjamin Shadwick 06 Oct '11

I don't remember any additional steps after installing it. I do remember that I didn't try the x2goclient versions at the link you posted on Windows 7 because they are 2 years old. Instead, I nosed around and found some newer builds here: http://x2go.obviously-nice.de/deb/windows/ I'm currently running the 3.99.0.1-092011 build without any major issues (as long as I don't run fullscreen). Also, make sure that there aren't any Xming, sshd or pulseaudio processes running on the Windows 7 machine before you (re)launch x2goclient. I've noticed that x2goclient doesn't always kill them when you close it (especially when you have to kill it due to a lost or hung connection that it refuses to terminate in a timely manner).

x2go client errors under Windows 7
by Jian Ren 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Does anyone running X2go client under windows 7? I am getting two issues. One is I have to manually launch Xming Server, which is not a big deal. Another is every time after connected I always got two error dialogs, "Can't read host rsa key:C:\Program Files\x2goclient\etc\ssh_host_rsa_key.pub", then another "Unable to read:.pub". They don't prevent me from using the client but very annoying and always need two extra clicks to close them. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks! Jian

can't launch pxe session
by Joe Konecny 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

I've installed x2go (SQLite) with PXE boot and everything looks like it went ok. The server is an HP DL-385 G7 with 16GB ram, 1TB drive and AMD Opteron Model 6128 HE 8 core, 2.0 GHz, 12MB L3 processor. Runing with a Wyse S50 thin client at 100Mbps on a switch directly to the server. The server is doing nothing other than hosting this x2go project.

Crashing sessions
by Paul van der Vlis 02 Oct '11

02 Oct '11

Hello, I've seen the last time session problems. Sometimes, most of the time when closing a full-screen window, the whole session is gone. I've seen this with both x2goclient and Pyhoca-GUI, but I cannot reproduce it. I know this problem from FreeNX, it's one of the reasons I switched to X2go. I think it's something in the NX libraries. Maybe it has something to do with new NX libraries? Are here more people with this issue? Is here somebody who knows more about this issue?

X2go i18n team
by Mike Gabriel 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

Hi all, we would like to set up an i18n team for X2go. The task of this team will be the maintenance of translation files in all X2go projects that utilize translation mechanism. Do I need to be able to read and write code for this? Definitely, no! Become a member of a translation team is a possibility to be in close contact to the developer team without necessarily being able to code. Only pre-requisite: you use X2go quite regularly and no the functionalities of the X2go components... plus: your English is good enough to find good translations of menu items, dialog boxes, etc. Each translator is responsible for the translation files of his/her language. Of course, it is also possible to maintain one translation language as a sub-team (that is: one language is maintained by more than one person). Currently these applications are using translation features: x2goclient pyhoca-gui x2gognomebindings plasma-widget-x2go (KDE$ binding) x2godesktopsharing x2goadmincenter ... (possibly more to come) ... The idea is to have a dedicated mailing list for announcing x2go-i18n issues (mostly mails like: ,,i18n Team, please translate this-and-that'' and a permanent team (with fluctuations, if needed, but preferably not so much fluctuation among the team members) that feels responsible and dedicated to providing a multi-lingual X2go environment to the world. The tools that we use for translations are currently versatile. Depending on the team we will find ways to standardize the translation technologies (if the team members are flexible with using different i18n tools, then this may not be needed). So, if you are interested in contributing translations to X2go and join the development realm by this approach, please-please-please subscribe to http://lists.berlios.de/mailman/admin/listinfo/x2go-i18n and ping us developers on that list. Thanks in advance for your time!!!

x2go-server
by Thomas Ritter 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Hi, we are using x2go as Terminal-server-Solution instead of an LTSP-server in the skolelinux edu-debian-environment. The TS-server works an the Clients are working well, but: 1) The RAM fills with old x2go-sessions. They are not killed by any service anytime. The used RAM grows up and the server-performance decrease. I "solved" the problem by killing all x2goagents-prozesses with cron twice a day. 2) The home-directories of my users fill with log-files like these : /home/pcag01/.x2go/S-es01-119-1313081349_stDKDE_dp24and they are not deleted. 3) My logfiles in /var/log like message or syslog grow up to a few hundred MB for example with entries like these: Sep 22 06:30:24 ltspserver01 ltspserver01 console-kit-daemon[24530]: WARNING: Record was not written to disk (File too large) Sep 22 06:30:55 ltspserver01 last message repeated 606 times Is there anyone who understands what my server makes?

Question about Pyhoca-gui
by Paul van der Vlis 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hello, To use Pyhoca-GUI you need 4 steps: - start Pyhoca-GUI, what only adds an icon - find and open the icon - connect to a server - start a session to that server I think for many normal people this is "complex". They would like 2 steps: - start the program, so that it's visable and not only an icon - start a connection and session to a server I am afraid this is not possible with Pyhoca GUI. Correct? What's the advantage to have a separate connection and session? With regards, Paul. -- Paul van der Vlis Linux systeembeheer, Groningen http://www.vandervlis.nl

x2goclient does not connect, Pyhoca-GUI does.
by Paul van der Vlis 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hello, Strange problem. I connect with x2goclient to a customer, it says after a very short time: "Access denied. Authentication that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive". When I connect using SSH with the same username and pasword and as the same user, there is no problem to connect. I've also tried Pyhoca-GUI. That worked without problems too. Can somebody explain me what's the underlaying difference? Maybe some different library is used for DNS or something like that? When I try it with x2goclient using a wrong password, there is nothing in the /var/log/auth.log on the not-working-host. When I connect to another customer with x2goclient, there is no problem. When I use a wrong password there, it is logged in /var/log/auth.log. With regards, Paul -- Paul van der Vlis Linux systeembeheer, Groningen http://www.vandervlis.nl

pyhoca-gui, x2goclient compatibility bugfix released
by Mike Gabriel 14 Sep '11

14 Sep '11

Hi all, today I have discovered and fixed a bug in pyhoca-gui that caused session profile problems in x2goclient after pyhoca-gui had been started on the same system for the same user (on Linux, both use the same config file: ~/.x2goclient/sessions). The symptoms were: o start pyhoca-gui o edit a session profile, change it from some desktop command to a non-desktop command o switch it back to a desktop command again o in pyhoca-gui you won't realize a problem o but: if you use this session profile in x2goclient, a desktop session will start in non-desktop mode: many individual windows are opened for the different desktop applications and applets I have just uploaded pyhoca-gui 0.1.0.8, which fixes this compatibility problem. The new pyhoca-gui version will also repair session profiles: edit a broken profile and save it again (from within pyhoca-gui). The session profile should be usable in x2goclient again, then.

SOLVED X Connection Refused problem
by John A. Sullivan III 07 Sep '11

07 Sep '11

Hello, all. We've seen a couple of postings in the past where users just could not connect and would get session errors about the X connection failing with a 111 Connection Refused and a message about channels with certain file descriptors and IDs not being closed. We've hit this in the past and have never gotten around it reliably. Any success seemed to be purely random luck. Today, we cracked one definitively. The problem was a mangled /tmp/.X11-unix directory. It is very specific to our environment but it may jog someone else's mind to find what the ultimate underlying issue is. We have been working on creating portable, encrypted boot sticks to boot a lightweight Linux desktop to connect to our X2Go systems as a way of getting around the poor performance of the Windows X2Go client as well as provide extra security, lower end user support requirements, further separation between the data center based "Content Network" and the unmanaged end devices, and portability between physical computers. All the testing and builds were done with the same very old laptop with Debian Squeeze. The only differences was one boot stick was built by installing Debian from the netinstall CD and used LXDE and the other was built with debootstrap and used Xfce. In both cases, we had a script named settmp to move the /tmp directory into RAM if there was sufficient RAM in the machine. It did this by copying anything already in /tmp to a scratch directory, deleting everything in /tmp, remounting /tmp as a tmpfs, copying everything back in, and then erasing the contents of the scratch directory. File transfers were done with rsync to ensure easier and safer handling of hidden files (no rm -Rf /tmp/.* - which deletes /tmp/.. ! - thankfully did not learn that the hard way). The LXDE system ran x2goclient perfectly well but the Xfce system almost never connected. Suspecting it was an SSH problem because of the channel error messages, I tried doing an ssh -X to the x2goserver and running xterm. It complained about a connection refused and pointed to .X11-unix which I remembered was in /tmp. I wondered if the moving and then moving back was mangling it. I then restarted X on the same system now that /tmp was already moved and x2goclient worked perfectly. I then rewrote the script as a real init script and used insserv to place it before x11-common. After several reboots, it has worked flawlessly. x2goclient connects all the time. In retrospect, I had comment out the settmp script on the LXDE station while troubleshooting something else and had forgotten about it! So, we successfully solved the dreaded X connection refused problem in our environment. Hopefully that will help the others who have been burned by it - John

x2goserver on SLES11

Hi, I found your posts within the x2go wiki, thank you very much for providing the instructions for manual install from source tarballs. I would also like to switch from freenx to x2go, therefore I want to install the x2goserver on an SLES11 installation. I followed the instructions and completed setting up x2goserver on SLES11. Now I'm trying to connect to x2goserver via an x2goclient (X2Go Client V. 3.99.0.0 (Qt - 4.7.2)) on Ubuntu 11.04. When starting the session I'm getting following problem: "Authentication failed" - "Access denied. Authentication that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive" I'm able to connect via ssh. Do you have any ideas what might be wrong? It is possible to get more detailed information via special trace settings? Thanks in advance, Uwe.

On the client windows, menu Option / Settings / Printing tab is checked the "Show this dialog Before start printing" Can anyone tell me of some howto or explain how to configure the local client printing from the server windows x2go Already, thanks

question regarding x2goclient armel builds
by Jimmy Knowles 31 Aug '11

31 Aug '11

Thanks for your work on the x2go packages. I was hoping someone could help me to be able to connect using the armel builds. I have a hp touchpad with x server running and a chrooted version of debian squeeze. I've installed the packages without any problems and I'm having some problems getting a session to start successfully. When I initiate a session from the touchpad, it will connect and the desktop displays, but any window manager items seem to crash. The panels don't display, any pop-up windows just flash and flicker. Only the desktop icons display correctly. And dmesg gives the following errors repeatedly: [65102.522642] metacity[5959]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f5d5e4e1ea1 sp 00007ffffb4ba480 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f5d5e4dd000+9000] [65102.523278] gnome-panel[5960]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fca77ca7ea1 sp 00007fff08238000 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fca77ca3000+9000] [65102.720377] trashapplet[5968]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fdb87f6fea1 sp 00007ffff313ec10 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fdb87f6b000+9000] [65103.621171] gnome-panel[5981]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f0211630ea1 sp 00007fffe7b2b790 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f021162c000+9000] [65103.622815] wnck-applet[5966]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fe8dac6eea1 sp 00007fffca25a130 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fe8dac6a000+9000] [65103.891078] metacity[5980]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f43eec66ea1 sp 00007fffff4193c0 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f43eec62000+9000] .

One difference that I notice is that the windows-initiated session name ends with dp32 (I'm assuming that's the color depth?) and the touchpad/armel-initiated session ends with dp24. Any ideas on how to get it to work correctly when initiating the session on the armel device? The server is running ubuntu natty, with version 3.0.99.5-0~49~natty1 of x2goserver. Thanks, Jimmy

And dmesg gives the following errors repeatedly:**** ** ** [65102.522642] metacity[5959]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f5d5e4e1ea1 sp 00007ffffb4ba480 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f5d5e4dd000+9000]**** [65102.523278] gnome-panel[5960]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fca77ca7ea1 sp 00007fff08238000 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fca77ca3000+9000]**** [65102.720377] trashapplet[5968]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fdb87f6fea1 sp 00007ffff313ec10 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fdb87f6b000+9000]**** [65103.621171] gnome-panel[5981]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f0211630ea1 sp 00007fffe7b2b790 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f021162c000+9000]**** [65103.622815] wnck-applet[5966]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fe8dac6eea1 sp 00007fffca25a130 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7fe8dac6a000+9000]**** [65103.891078] metacity[5980]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f43eec66ea1 sp 00007fffff4193c0 error 4 in libXrender.so.1.3.0[7f43eec62000+9000]**** …**** [65146.848679] x2goagent[32682]: segfault at 186a690 ip 000000000186a690 sp 00007fffa244d758 error 15**** ** ** What does work is if I’m resuming a session that was initiated via a windows (or amd64) x2goclient.

X2Go problem
by Christopher Stark 31 Aug '11

Hi, I've installed x2go on both my client pc (Kanotix/Debian Stable) and my server (salineOS / Debian stable) I configured my router with a dyn-dns adress and a port forwarding to my server but cannot login with remote from my client PC. When I try x2go freezes or I get this message: *Host key for server changed.* *It is now: 4c:53:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx* *For security reasons, connection will be stopped* It has worked before but now it doesn't anymore. I reinstalled the Linux on my server maybe this is the reason? Could anybody here help me with that problem? best regards Christopher

x2go - Ubuntu 11.04 - Keyring problems
by Ralf Moll 30 Aug '11

Hi, I "upgraded" my pc from Debian Lenny to Ubuntu 11.04. Hmm, it cuts both ways..... Now every time I connect to my Ubuntu-Server-Installation [1], gnome-keyring want to be unlocked after a few seconds, not matter if I use gnome or lxde as x2go-session. That would not be that bad, but I get disconnected, no matter what I type in! As already mentioned [2] the ubuntu keyring is buggy, but how can I get an useable x2goserver on 11.04? I did already kick off keyring and keyring-ssh-agent out of the start-programs (System->Preferences->Session->Start Programs), but this did not work. What will cause this behaviour? Does x2go use the ssh-agent on the server for ssh-tunneling? Here some more links, which could be interesting: * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse/+bug/67793 * http://live.gnome.org/Seahorse/SSHAgent cu, and thanks for x2go! Ralf [1] Server Ubuntu 11.04 x2goserver installed like http://wiki.x2go.org/adding_the_x2go_repository_ubuntu [2] Keyring Problem http://www.mail-archive.com/x2go-dev@lists.berlios.de/msg02451.html
