X2Go on multiple screen Windows system
by Rob Janssen 21 Aug '15

21 Aug '15

I have used X2Go for some time, server is an openSuse 13.1 system, client is a Windows system. For now it is running Vista, I am trying to replace it with Windows 8 embedded (a HP thin client). The Windows system has two screens. I want to use screen 1 for Windows, screen 2 for a fullscreen Linux desktop. So I configured this in the X2Go client. (use whole display, select display number 2) However, I find that it does not work reliably. This already occurred on Vista, where it initially opens the session in a window and then quickly switches it to fullscreen. Unfortunately the initial small size is sent to the Linux session which adapts by resetting the desktop size, then the full screen size is sent a fractional second later. The result is that my window placement is all messed up. However, after switching to the newer Windows 8 the issue becomes more pronounced, the window now initially appears on screen 1 which is slightly smaller (because of the taskbar) and is then moved to screen 2, at which time the vxcsrv just crashes. I can work around it by starting a new session but it will not be full screen, there is an unused area the size of the taskbar. The server also does not crash when I select Fullscreen as the display mode (without Xinerama), but then I get the fullscreen mode on screen 1 instead of screen 2 as I desire. I see nothing about these problems in the documentation, do other users see those issues and/or is there something I am missing and can use as a workaround? Rob

PXE x2go questions
by Luciano Gabriel Andino 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

Hello, I'm using PXE thinclient in a gigabit LAN for a GNU/Linux KDE session. I have a two questions/issues: 1) Which is the best compression method? There are a lot of alternatives like "4k-png", which one may I choose? and may I use the "LAN" option? 2) sometimes the "Shutdown system button" in thinclient, doesn't work. I press it but nothing happens. thanks, -- Saludos!! Luciano Andino GNU/Linux user #185103 Santa Fe - Argentina -----------------------------------------------

19 Aug '15

Hi, I have just succesfully installed x2go 4.0.1.19, both server and client are Debian Linux machines. According to the documentation Mate (which I run on server) is fully supported, however the drop-down field Session Type on client has no Mate entry. How can choose it? Thanks, Tad

Graphical apps stalling in suspended session
by Matthew L. Dailey 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

We ran into an odd issue recently that feels like a bug, but I wanted to throw it out to the community to see if anyone else has seen this or has any ideas. When we run a graphical app in xfce via X2Go and then suspend the session, the app continues to run, but significantly slower than if we remain connected. If we resume the session while the app is still running, it resumes its normal speed. This issue seems identical to bug 673 (<http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=673>), but this was closed because it was not reproducible. The simplest way I found to reproduce this is to have gnuplot plot in a loop, so it takes a while. If I use this input file: do for [a=1:200] { plot sin(x+a) } It runs in a reasonable amount of time while logged into an xfce x2go session: $ time gnuplot plot.txt real 0m6.059s user 0m1.348s sys 0m0.124s If I use a sleep first and suspend so gnuplot runs in the suspended session, it takes much longer: $ sleep 5; time gnuplot plot.txt real 2m24.365s user 0m1.516s sys 0m0.176s Another way to reproduce is to run glxgears and then suspend and resume. You’ll see that while suspended, the frame rate is significantly lower, but then resumes normal speed when the session is resumed. Here are the particulars of the server: OS: Xubuntu 14.04.3 (built this to test - we’re primarily seeing this on our Ubuntu 14.04.3 systems with xfce) x2goagent: 2:3.5.0.32-0~668~ubuntu14.04.1 x2goserver: 4.0.1.19-0~1064~ubuntu14.04.1 x2goserver-extensions: 4.0.1.19-0~1064~ubuntu14.04.1 x2goserver-xsession: 4.0.1.19-0~1064~ubuntu14.04.1 Thanks for any help you can provide. Let me know if you have questions or need any other information. -- Matthew L. Dailey Senior Systems Engineer Thayer School of Engineering Dartmouth College

X2Go Centos 6 BROKEN
by Robert Dinse 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

I have a number of CentOS 6 boxes still in service. Today one ate a disk so I re-installed it. But the X2Go RPM on ElRepo does not work, it's missing a bunch of things that are neither present in the CentOS repository or the ElRepo repository. Even if I chase them down with rpm.pbone.net and install the missing components it still doesn't work. I don't have time to troubleshoot further, I'm upgrading that machine to CentOS 7, but someone might want to look at this as others may not have that option because it will break something else. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Eskimo North Linux Friendly Internet Access, Shell Accounts, and Hosting.

Client folder sharing not working with Windows x2go client
by Peter Schulz 16 Aug '15

16 Aug '15

I have checked the forum for similar threads, and applied the solutions given there, but it does not solve my problem. *The Problem: * I installed x2go server on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM running in XenServer 6.2. Using LXDE desktop, installed LXDE desktop bindings. Using regular Windows x2go client from Windows XP. No problem to create a session and run it. Added a shared folder for c:\Documents and Settings\Admin. The shared folder does not appear in the x2go session. On the server, using "df -h" to display the various disks gives the message: df: '/tmp/.x2go-sysadmin/spool/C-sysadmin-50-1439738979_stDLXDE_dp16': Transport endpoint is not connected sysadmin is the user name on the Linux Ubuntu 14.04 server used to log in to the session. It is the default user of that installation, no other user created. Curiously, when I re-issue the "df" command in the session a few times, the above error does not show again. It only shows the first time, and only if I do not use use sudo to issue the command. On earlier attempts, the path was different and contained "cygwin" somewhere in the middle of the path. But there was also no folder to connect to. *What I Tried: * Client and server can ping each other. I can log in with putty (SSH) to the server. Therefore, basic communications seem to be allright. Tried to disable strict host key checking on the server in the ssh config file. No result. Uninstalled desktop binding package and re-installed it a few times. No difference. I also installed MATE desktop, and installed XFCE. Same result. I understand that XFCE has no desktop binding package (if that package really has anything to do with that). At least, it did get the exact same error. At this point, I would need advice what I can check further, or what logs I can look into, as I do not know what to look for. ML Peter

Any pointers for a PPA or other method of installing X2Go server on Mint Mate 17.2? I upgraded from 14.x and x2go server doesn't seem to be in the default repositories. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Eskimo North Linux Friendly Internet Access, Shell Accounts, and Hosting.
