Well, there isn't a real technical reason why we support bash only, it's just
that the current code kind of relies on it to work and has never been …

with anything else but the bash-like dash and maybe the POSIX-compatible
dash/bash sh-emulation.
ksh is bash-like enough to by chance "just work".
You'll see weird behavior with csh and others, though.
Besides making all remote calls POSIX sh-compatible, I wouldn't know how to fix
the problem. And I'm not even sure csh and friends *are* POSIX sh-compatible,
without looking it up first...
That wasn't meant as a "bash or die" statement, but given the current state of
affairs, it comes close to that.

I posted here a while back about an issue with keyboard translation
with MacOS 10.10.3, it worked fine on my sons computer but not on a customers
with the same OS.
I went to the customers premise today and from his machine logged in as
myself and the keyboard worked properly, logged in as him and it did not.
We narrowed it down to his having /bin/csh as the shell on the Ubuntu
14.04 server and I /bin/ksh. Changing his shell to ksh resolved the
translation issue.
However, …
[View More]from a Ubuntu 14.10 Linux workstation, it is fine to have csh
as the shell on the server, it only breaks if originating from a MacOS
workstation.
Any idea why it would matter what login shell is used if originating
from a mac but not from Linux?

Dear List,
I'm trying to use X2go client with a http proxy connection. In the
session options I selected the "Use proxy server for connection" and the
type "HTTP", I entered the proxy port and address but when I start the
session I always get this error: "cannot connect to proxy server".
What it's wired is that even if I selected the http option when I try to
start the session a window opens asking for the password for the SSH proxy.
Are there any problems with the http proxy connection? …
[View More]Can I use X2go
client with this type of connection?
Thank you in advance for your help
Kind regards

Hello everyone,

Has anyone encountered this ? I had this working at some point and it appears a regression may be at play on the server side. I can replicate this on any ubuntu precise server within the same network and I can also replicate it when connecting to localhost!
I googled the problem and it seems to have been reported many years ago so perhaps someone on this list can provide some quick insight?
On my ubuntu server (also 12.04.5) I have the following :

We have followed the guide on wiki.x2go.org on Pxe server but when we try
booting up a pc with the thin client there comes a blue and white loading
screen where it proseeds with a white screen where there it says plase wait
loading and staying like that for a hole day.a more please help
The client and server would run on the same system.
Background: I am looking for a solution to scale [Xfig][1] for use on
HiDPI screens. What works is VNC: various VNC clients support scaling.
However, an NX based solution would possibly be more light weight, and
one could manage individual windows.

I've got kind of a strange situation I'm hoping someone might be able to
help me troubleshoot.
I've got a Ubuntu 14.04 server with a variety of Desktops including
KDE, Xfce, and Mate.
From my Ubuntu 14.10 Linux box, I can use X2go to connect to the Ubuntu
server using any of the above. However, from a Mac running Yosimite 10.10.3,
X2go just gets a black screen on the Ubuntu server using exactly the same
account that works from my Ubuntu workstation. The Mac however can use the
…
[View More]Mate desktop just fine.
This kind of breaks my normal troubleshooting paradigm of substitute
components until you determine which one is defective because in this case,
the Mac works with Mate but not xfce, my Ubuntu box works with both.
If the Mac was bad, it should be broken for both desktops I would think.
If the xfce installation or x2go server was broken, it should be broken for
both the Mac and my Linux box.
On the Mac when you login using xfce you just got a black screen (like
you would using a Desktop with a compositing window manager) but it works fine
from my Ubuntu box so that's not the issue.

The faq at:
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:faq
States that Ubuntu 12.10 and up no longer offer Unity 2d, only plain
Unity, so X2Go can't work with it.
Actually, I've got Ubuntu 14.10 and it DOES include Unity2d in the
distribution. I've installed it but X2Go doesn't work with it.

Hi,
I've been using x2go for a while without any issues on Ubuntu 12.04.
I've just done an update on the box, which updated x2go from
4.0.1.16-0~935~ubuntu12.04.1 to 4.0.1.19-0~1064~ubuntu12.04.1 and the nx
libs from 2:3.5.0.27-0~446~ubuntu12.04.1 to
2:3.5.0.31-0~605~ubuntu12.04.1. (Packages installed via X2Go stable
(main) PPA: https://launchpad.net/~x2go/+archive/ubuntu/stable)
I no longer seem to be able to connect to the box via x2go. I have tried
client 4.0.3.2 under Linux and 4.0.…
[View More]2.0 under windows.
I have enabled debug logging on the server. I see the following in syslog:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
