APT broke X2Go,. Now neither work at all.

I was using X2Go succesfully on my Xubuntu laptop, but after running apt upgrades it is all screwed up and I can neither use it nor purge it, nor use APT for anything else. *me@laptop:~$ sudo -A apt purge x2goserver Reading package lists...

broken dependencies for Debian 10 + 11
by Philipp Huebner 01 Jun '23

01 Jun '23

Hi, the release of X2Go Server 4.1.0.4 caused several issues on the Debian systems I administer (mostly 11, but 10 is affected as well). The main cause: The source package x2gokdrive and its binary package xserver-x2gokdrive is missing from the main archive. I had to manually backport it from heuler to get around this. Further cause: insufficient Breaks+Replaces between libx2go-server-perl 4.1.0.4 and libx2go-utils-perl 4.1.0.3 (same file installed from both packages). Upon purging all x2go packages to get a clean system, I was left with a broken dpkg-statoverride that should have been cleaned up in some postrm script but wasn't. More detailed output for all 3 issues is in the attached txt file. It's in German, but the relevant information should be understandable anyway. Best wishes -- .''`.

wayland client keyboard mapping problems
by Neal Becker 01 Jun '23

01 Jun '23

I've been using x2go for a long time now, with X11 on server and client. I use remapping of caps->ctrl (old emacs guy). After struggling with problems using X11 on client and server side, this seems to have been resolved for the last couple of years and life was good. Now I'm trying wayland on the client side. So far things work, except the keyboard mapping problem is back. Every time I reconnect when I hit caps in emacs (running on server) it is not mapped to ctrl. Using xfce on server (kde on client) I seem to each time need to open keyboard settings (xfce) and fiddle with it toggling the cryptically-named Alt+ctrl keyboard variant setting and then my mapping works again. Any suggestions? It would be great if it just worked, like it did on X11. But if I could just run a cli command to fix it on the server each time I connect I could also live with that. Thanks, Neal

temporarily disable pxe / Kernel panic
by Olaf Staubus 11 May '23

11 May '23

Hello! In my existing system, x2go including the pxe server runs on a virtual machine. Since I've had a few problems with it for a long time, such as windows closing immediately when calling up an already running session from one PC to the other, I would like to test a new installation in another virtual machine. However, the old and the new system presumably get in the way(?) If the new server is also running and I boot a thin client, after a long boot time comes: 192.799091] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! [192.801339] Pid: 1, comm: busybox Not tainted 3.2.0-4-486 #1 Debian 3.2.68-1+deb7u3 [192.803339] Call Trace: [192.805281] [<c1281e21>] ? panic+0x4d/0x139 [192.807360] [<c1025322>] ? do_exit+0x75/0x598 [192.809562] ... do_group_exit ... ... sys_exit_group ... ... syscall_call ... ... panic occured, switching back to text console How can I temporarily disable the PXE functionality of the previous server? And/or is there another problem here? Greeting, Olaf

Odd problem connecting to linux
by Stephen Berg (Code 7309) 11 May '23

11 May '23

I've come across an odd problem. From windows and linux clients I'm attempting to connect to a linux system, rocky linux 8.7, and run a single application. Terminator is the application but it seems as though most any app behaves the same. If noone is logged onto the remote linux systems gnome desktop the connection works okay. But if for instance I'm logged into gnome on the linux box and try to get a terminator shell over x2go the terminator window pops up on the linux desktop instead of being redirected back to the client side of the connection. On the linux server side: X11Forwarding is set to yes. X11UseLocalhost is set to no, it was set to yes previously but the change didn't effect the behavior. AllowAgentForwarding and AllowTcpForwarding are both set to default which should be yes. Any clues where I should start looking for the cause here? -- Stephen Berg, IT Specialist, Ocean Sciences Division, Code 7309 Naval Research Laboratory stephen.berg(a)nrlssc.navy.mil <- (Preferred contact) W: (228) 688-5738 DSN: (312) 823-5738 C: (228) 365-0162

The X2Go Project Could Use Your Help!
by Stefan Baur 08 May '23

08 May '23

Hi $ALL, As Covid-19 restrictions are lifted all over the place, more and more events are taking place in real life again. Which means X2Go needs volunteers, equipment, and supplies for booths at such events. While we can't "buy" volunteers, we can do so for equipment and supplies - given sufficient funding. So if you want to support the project, you can chip in and help recover our costs. To donate to the project in general, click here: <https://www.betterplace.org/en/projects/111056?wirwunder=235> To donate towards a specific need, please use one of the following links: <https://www.betterplace.org/en/donate/platform/projects/111056?need_id=4715…> - roughly 700 Euros should cover everything that was needed for LinuxDays Chemnitz 2023, we've already received 381 Euros, so we're only 319 Euros away from reaching our goal. <https://www.betterplace.org/en/donate/platform/projects/111056?need_id=4841…> - roughly 200 Euros should cover everything that was needed for Linux Info Days Augsburg 2023. <https://www.betterplace.org/de/donate/platform/projects/111056?need_id=4841…> - roughly 120 Euros should cover spare parts and labour costs to fix the keyboard of one of our demo laptops we use at events like the two listed above. All donations are tax deductible for German tax subjects. By the way: If you are unable to make a donation yourself, don't feel bad! You can also help us by liking/fav'ing this <https://twitter.com/farbenstau/status/1655513193966452743> tweet (which also boosts visibility on Twitter) and by retweeting it. Posting it on Facebook and other social media is also welcome and helps us, too. :) Kind Regards & Thank You For Your Support, Stefan Baur X2Go's Community Manager -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243

Many segfault across multiple desktops via X2go server on EL9 systems
by Tom Crane 02 May '23

02 May '23

I originally submitted a detailed bug report at the Mate Desktop issues Github page here https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/issues/553. I subsequently discovered that other desktops are similarly affected. All of them experienced segfaults or kernel traps in parts of their components, particularly in the Marco window manager that Mate uses. I have also tried Gnome, Kde, xfce, Cinnamon & Icewm desktops, again on a Centos Stream 9 system. Similar results were found on an Alma 9 system so I do not believe the problem is specific to the 'upstream' / lesser-tested nature of CS9. Apart from Icewm which remained usable even with the segfaults, the other desktops (particularly Mate which we use a lot for remote working) are rendered unusable by this problem. None of our Centos 7 systems have this problem. I am running out of ideas to diagnose/fix this problem. Any thoughts? Thanks Tom Crane X2go etc. packages version details (as installed from Epel 9 repository), nxagent-3.5.99.26-6.el9.x86_64 nx-libs-3.5.99.26-6.el9.x86_64 x2goagent-4.1.0.3-17.el9.x86_64 x2goserver-4.1.0.3-17.el9.x86_64 x2goserver-common-4.1.0.3-17.el9.noarch x2goserver-xsession-4.1.0.3-17.el9.noarch

Font display issues with Motif and X2go
by Michael Eager 30 Apr '23

30 Apr '23

I have a GUI which gives different output when run under X2go and ssh -X or vnc. In the attached image, the left window is running under X2go. The text overflows the buttons, text at ends of lines are truncated, and some text overlays adjacent text. The right window is running remotely using "ssh -X". When I connect to the remote system using tigervnc, the GUI displays correctly. This looks like a problem with X2Go's X rendering. Is there anything I can do to fix this? -- Michael Eager
