How to make the picture smoother
by wc yeah 17 Apr '23

17 Apr '23

hi all， I'm using x2goclient v.4.1.2.2 for windows, connecting to CentOS 7.9 x2goserver 4.1.0.3. When I open the CAD software on the remote desktop and drag my model, the picture is not smooth, and the image display is very jumpy. The client parameters I use are Connection speed: ADSL Compression Method: 256-jpeg Image quality: 0 display width: 2560 height: 1449 DPI: 80 I tried adjusting these parameters and found that there is not much improvement, but if I shrink the remote desktop window, it will become very smooth. Is there any method or parameter setting to make the picture smooth? Hope someone can help me. Thanks. --Yeahwc

Re: [X2Go-User] Resume/restoration of windows to linux workspaces

Hello! I just played around with the xdotool and came to the idea, to run it in a mate-terminal for the same published application, which I am usually using. Astounding result. >xdotool getactivewindow windowsize Your windowmanager claims not to support _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW, so the attempt to query the active window aborted. xdotool get_desktop Your windowmanager claims not to support _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP, so the query for the current desktop was aborted. xdotool getactivewindow get_desktop_for_window Your windowmanager claims not to support _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW, so the attempt to query the active window aborted. xdo_get_active_window reported an error >From what I understand (?!) from your explantion, this must be an answer from the virtualized window-manger which runs in the usersession on the server?? This happens for my main-setup (client/server) as long as a new container, I've setup for testing). In opposite to the x2go session, trying the same (against the same host, using the same user and the same client machine, which behaves equal to my main setup): ssh -X tu1@deskeval mate-terminal tu1@deskeval:~$ xdotool get_desktop 56 It shows my current workspace-number. I just setup an lxc-container with debian/bullseye and in opposite to my usual use of XFCE4, I installed mate. It gave the same result like the mate-terminal from the xfce4-session (both were published applications). If I logon to the desktop, it works as expected! Suspending/resuming sessions give the same result between the mate- and the xfce4-desktop: Windows from other workspaces do not appear (but firefox knows them and its taskmanager can bring them up - the appear on the originally used workspace). May be, this is just another hint.

Typically a window manager will store the workspace to use in the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property of a window. You can check that with xprop | grep _NET_WM_DESKTOP (selected the window you are interested in with the mouse). Alternatively you can run xprop -id <windowid> | grep _NET_WM_DESKTOP. Whenever a published application opens a window it will open this window on the x2goagent/nxagent on the server AND open a clone window on you local X server. Internally the agent has a mapping between the window ids of each window pair. On suspend the windows on the local X server are closed, the ones on the agent stay. On resume/reconnect the agent winn again open (new!) clone windows on the local X server and update their window ids in its list. When the local window manager sets the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property the agent will register this and _should_ update the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property on the agent side window, too. If a client changes a window property the agent will forward this change to the twin window on the local X server EXCEPT for properties starting with for WM_, _NET_ and for the _KDE_NET_WM_SYSTEM_TRAY_WINDOW_FOR property. So if firefox is trying to handle these properties itself this might explain why the workspace is not honored (just speculating, have not tested further). But I am wondering: If, e.g., a window was placed on, say, workspace 4 and then suspended and the resume happens on a setup that only has one or two workspaces what would happen? Also there might be further problems arising from restored windows having an other window id than previously. If the window manager chooses to store some workspace information depending on the window id (I don't know if any WM is doing this) this will not work with the restored windows. I am also wondering if setting the desired workspace by the client (in this case the agent is a client to the local X server) is honored by the WM at all. So can you please to some tests with the xprop command described above (run it from a local terminal, NOT from a published application) and check the properties of those windows before and after the reconnect? Does the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property get lost? Please also post the output of xprop -root | grep -e ^_NET -e ^WM - this will show the window manager related configuration.

The application itself does not know about the workspaces at all. So probably the window manager does not recognize the restored windows as previously known windows. I have no idea at the moment how to even check if this theory applies here.

Re: [X2Go-User] Performance problems with x2go - hickups, pause, probably memory-leak

Hello! Addendum. I'll add obervations, which may be related. 1) Firefox stucks - no data comes in, network 0b/s. 2) Viewing video, video stucks shortly after start. If this just happens, just change the current workspace on the client side (where the windows are) and switch back immidiately: Problem "solved" in the same moment. The one window has its data, the other play the video. Looks like, it has something to do with window manager or something, which is not knowing, where the rigth window is? (I am using published applications most of the time). Update. Due to updates, I had to shutdown all and restart. This make verything shine golden and remind me, that immidiately after starting the x2go client (and server!), perf is really well (I described my hw/sw already). Its usually over time, that perf degrades that much. Over time is someting really over days, because I usually do no shutdowns, but hibernate my workstation. What I saw before the restart, was additionally a laggy scrolling behavior in Firefox and it reminds me, that I saw this bevore - looks probably related to the memory leak of the x2goagent. After the restart, scrolling works fine. Related. I have two lxc-containers running on my gateway, one for dns, one for a squid proxy. Both works well, but sometimes, perf is in question. I usually run a terminal to the gateway host and monitor this containers using lxc-top. The related thing is: relative high cpu (20%) and growing mem-use, the reason, they must finally rebooted each two weeks. Now, I've disabled x2goserver in both containers and I am running the third day now: 0%(!!) cpu, NO memory leak. They all run debian buster (fully upgraded) on kernel 5.10, x2goserver 4.1.0.3-4. May be this helps. So the memory-leak seems to be obvious. In the current, new cycle for my main-use, mem climbed already up from 0.6% to 5.0%.

For unknown reasons, this situation is not stabil (I am using up to 500 Tabs), one will never know, when this may happen and pre-actively saveing the session and continue with, say, 50 Tab, doesnt change the problem! The VM got 8 cores(!) on a AMD EPYC-Rome Processor with max 3.4 Ghz and 24 GB(!) mem, it got two network interfaces, one, to communicate with my host over a local bridge (10-36 Gb/s!), this is the "x2go-channel" and a lan-IF (1 Gb/s, hardware-passthrough) to the gateway (has 500 Mb/s) and nothing overloaded ever.

I setup a little processmonitor for the x2goagent and this seems to show a memory leak. I append this at the end.

Re: [X2Go-User] Resume/restoration of windows to linux workspaces

Hello, and thanks for your help. First, to mention about about firefox: If one runs firefox on the local machine, restauration after crash are always correct! I understand your explanation about the workspace number. At time of my question, the number of workspaces between user local and on the server were really different. But this should not matter, because - more "accidentally" - my test happened on the first eight workspaces (at that time, the server have luckily had 8 for this user). I made the test you mentioned and the _NET_WM_DESKTOP is always present (before suspend and after restore), BUT windows, which were located in different workspaces even do NOT appear - I checked all workspaces (because I use a lot of them, I have "tools" for this). To the checks. I save all window properties for my attempts and a grep over them shows: test3-win1-ws-6-x-post.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 6 test1-win2-ws-7-post.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 7 test1-win1-ws-6-7-post.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 6 test2-win1-ws-7-post.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 7 test1-win2-ws-7-org.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 7 test2-win2-ws-7-post.txt:_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 7 (The 'test1-win1-ws-6-7-post' has had a window on workspace 7 too, which does not appear at resume time). The last test generates a lot of output, I put it at the end. I survive a little with scripts, which saves all window titles (which are not necessarily unique) and I can restore partially the firefox windows. But gave up - would probably need the main-window id for the tabs .... But at login, I start eight caja windows this way. Please, no notes about my workspaces, I am trying something new and have a total of 60(!!). Organized into 15 interest zones with 4 prioritry rows - will see, if this make sense (most of the time, many are empty and will be named later). The problem with the firefox windows was the massivst problem, due to the huge amout of windows to re-arrange, but behind it, is the probably bigger problem: After shutdown or hibernate,most(!) of my remote sessions do NOT appear at all!

Typically a window manager will store the workspace to use in the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property of a window. You can check that with xprop | grep _NET_WM_DESKTOP (selected the window you are interested in with the mouse). Alternatively you can run xprop -id <windowid> | grep _NET_WM_DESKTOP. Whenever a published application opens a window it will open this window on the x2goagent/nxagent on the server AND open a clone window on you local X server. Internally the agent has a mapping between the window ids of each window pair. On suspend the windows on the local X server are closed, the ones on the agent stay. On resume/reconnect the agent winn again open (new!) clone windows on the local X server and update their window ids in its list. When the local window manager sets the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property the agent will register this and _should_ update the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property on the agent side window, too. If a client changes a window property the agent will forward this change to the twin window on the local X server EXCEPT for properties starting with for WM_, _NET_ and for the _KDE_NET_WM_SYSTEM_TRAY_WINDOW_FOR property. So if firefox is trying to handle these properties itself this might explain why the workspace is not honored (just speculating, have not tested further). But I am wondering: If, e.g., a window was placed on, say, workspace 4 and then suspended and the resume happens on a setup that only has one or two workspaces what would happen? Also there might be further problems arising from restored windows having an other window id than previously. If the window manager chooses to store some workspace information depending on the window id (I don't know if any WM is doing this) this will not work with the restored windows. I am also wondering if setting the desired workspace by the client (in this case the agent is a client to the local X server) is honored by the WM at all. So can you please to some tests with the xprop command described above (run it from a local terminal, NOT from a published application) and check the properties of those windows before and after the reconnect? Does the _NET_WM_DESKTOP property get lost? Please also post the output of xprop -root | grep -e ^_NET -e ^WM - this will show the window manager related configuration.

Upcoming X2Go and orca e.V. sponsorship drive - starting tomorrow, 2023-04-04
by Stefan Baur 03 Apr '23

03 Apr '23

Dear $ALL, As you might know, a few years ago, at "X2Go: The Gathering 2017", several key members of X2Go as well as members from other Remote Desktop-/Remote Application projects joined together to form the Open Remote Computing Association - orca e.V. - a registered association under Germanys Civil Code and also registered as a charitable organization, similar to a 501(c)(3) organization in the US. In June 2022, we joined betterplace.org for easier handling of donations. They offer PayPal, SEPA Direct Debit, Credit Card, giropay/paydirekt and Wire transfer. And they also handle issuing donation receipts for us. (Note that while donations towards orca/X2Go are tax-deductible for German tax subjects, this may vary in other jurisdictions.) This is to let you know that the next sponsorship drive starts Tuesday, 2023-04-04, 09:00 CEST (that's tomorrow!) and ends Thursday, 2023-04-06, 23:59 CEST. It is sponsored by the Commercial and Savings Bank Ulm, where orca's bank account resides, and they are going to distribute 10 000 EUR among all charitable organizations registered with them via betterplace.org that receive donations in the timeframe above. So it's not a 1:1 matching of each donation, but the org with the biggest amount of donations gets the biggest piece of the cake, so to speak. If you can, please visit the donation sites below on one or more of the dates mentioned and send a few €€€ our way. (But don't feel bad if you can't. Times are rough. We get that.) We'd prefer if you use the German-language donation forms because with these, we know for sure that the donation counts towards the bank's pledge. However, if you're afraid of hitting the wrong button in a German-language form, feel free to use the link that points to the English version. To donate towards X2Go: German: <https://www.wirwunder.de/projects/111056?wirwunder=235> English: <https://www.betterplace.org/en/projects/111056?wirwunder=235> Note that X2Go currently has a specific need (with a second one probably popping up soon). To donate specifically towards that need, please see the links below: English-language donation form for travel/lodging/supplies costs @ LinuxDays Chemnitz 2023: <https://www.betterplace.org/en/donate/platform/projects/111056?need_id=4715…> German-language donation form for travel/lodging/supplies costs @ LinuxDays Chemnitz 2023: <https://www.betterplace.org/de/donate/platform/projects/111056?need_id=4715…> To donate towards orca e.V., our umbrella org: German: <https://www.wirwunder.de/projects/111057?wirwunder=235> English: <https://www.betterplace.org/en/projects/111057?wirwunder=235> Kind Regards, and Thanks in Advance, 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

File Sharing in X2GoClient stopped working with Win11
by Felipe Ayora 24 Mar '23

24 Mar '23

Hi all, Folder sharing suddenly stopped working after one of the latest Windows 11 updates. It was working fine below, but now users are reported either seeing this error: "Failed to open URI "file://tmp/.x2go-username/media/disk/_cygdrive_C_Users_username_foldername" and "No such file or directory". Or not seeing that error, but files still not showing on the remote server. In both cases (i.e., error and no error) the remote server *does* list the shared folders on the remote server under ~/media/disk. When there is no error, the folder just looks empty. Both users have the latest client for Windows v4.1.2.2. Also, although I do not know if it is related, a command line window opens every time I start X2GoClient on Windows and shows this error: /cygdrive/C/Users/user.name/.x2go/etc/sshd_config line 3: Deprecated option UsePrivilegeSeparation Any help would be much appreciated! Kind Regards, --Felipe

Re: [X2Go-User] Resume/restoration of windows to linux workspaces
by webman＠manfbraun.de 19 Mar '23

19 Mar '23

Hello Uli! Thanks for your reply. Published applications are not necessarily one-window, strictly spoken, a terminal with two tabs has (at least) two windows. As long as they are inside the terminals main-window, everything works (sad to say: most of the time). If there are two separate windows, which are in the current workspace, this works too. Below of that, it gets complicated. If two windows are in separate workspaces, it works sometimes. I am not sure, why at all - from your guess. If you have two terms at WS1 and WS3 and you resume on WS5, NO window appear at all, though the processes are running well on the server side! For firefox, this is more different. >From several windows, which were originally located in different workspaces, only one window will be restored, this of the current workspace. If all were located in the same workspace, they are restored to the current workspace, if you are in that workspace, which was current at 'suspend' time - otherwise: NO window appear at all! But for the first case, it gets interesting. Go to 'more tools/taskmanager' (of the fox!), you'll see all windows as processes. Double-clicking on of them brings it back to the workspace were it was originally located! Works for all of them. Back to the first cases above. If a session is restored by the x2go-client (I do not know about this, due to lack of documentation), it knows all windows and restores them - so ether the session on the server or the client must give the window-manager advice. I am starting my caja browsers at logon this way and they will be even tagged to be visible on all workspaces. So suspending a session must save the workspace accordingly. I asked me, on which side, the workspace will be read at all, server oder client? Just to be sure to have the same number of WSs, I made them equal (for the testuser), but this does not change anything (may be, a restart is necessary?). >From toolchains perspective, X(&co.) were never made for suspending window sessions (at least, so far I know) and the window manager is only a filter for the workspace numbers. What remains is, that only x2go can handle this at all. This was - a little - exploration, which shed me light on the sessions, which do not work after return from hibernate my box in the morning.

There is a big behavioral difference from using fox between this and using fox local in regard of crash and restore. If the fox restores a crashed window set locally, all windows appear on the workspace, they were originally running on. Not so with x2go - they all appear in the workspace, were the restauration starts. I usually have >50 windows and this is a big pain. Is this the normal behavior? If not, where to look for the problem? Note, this does not depend on a users profile. I created an additional user on the server and it behaves the same.
