Libreoffice Writer breaks x2go session
by Hanno Foest 13 Feb '23

13 Feb '23

Hi, starting libreoffice writer freezes the display, and the local window of the x2go session closes a moment later. Reconnecting behaved similarly, ie. as soon as the contents on my session (and therefore the libreoffice window) appears, the session freezes again. Log shows Session: Session resumed at 'Thu Feb 9 20:49:16 2023'. Info: Screen [0] resized to geometry [1700x1200] fullscreen [0]. Session: Display failure detected at 'Thu Feb 9 20:50:33 2023'. Session: Suspending session at 'Thu Feb 9 20:50:33 2023'. Loop: PANIC! No shutdown of proxy link performed by remote proxy. Error: Connection with remote peer broken. Error: Please check the state of your network and retry. Remote system is Devuan Chimaera (Debian 11.1), x2goserver 4.1.0.3-5 and 4.1.0.4-0x2go1.2~git20220808.1949+11.heuler.1 (tried both, no difference) Local system is Win10, X2GoClient 4.1.2.2 Libreoffice calc works fine, though. - Any suggestions? - Hanno

HELP WANTED: LinuxDays Chemnitz 2023-03-11/2023-03-11 - X2Go could use additional booth volunteers
by Stefan Baur 10 Feb '23

10 Feb '23

Dear $ALL, A lot of real-life events had to be cancelled in 2020-2022 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, some became online or hybrid events. In September 2022, LinuxDay.AT was the first to dare to return to a real-life event format. Now, LinuxDays Chemnitz is following suit: Their event takes place on the weekend of March 11th/March 12, 2023, in their pre-pandemic location, the Campus Reichenhainer Street of the Technical University Chemnitz. We have been able to secure a booth there, however, due to unforeseen circumstances, we are a bit shorter on booth staff than originally planned. So if anyone is planning to attend anyways, or at least considering to attend, please reply to this message (off-list, see Reply-To header). No promises, but we might be able to get you a free ticket in exchange for volunteering at our booth (this depends on the CLT folks' goodwill, as we're past the sign-up date). Also, we'll see if we can pick you up/drop you off somewhere along the route and see if we can get a room reserved for you as well. Again, no promises, as this is all very last minute and not going as expected, but we'll do our best. Note: There is no official mask mandate at the venue, but wearing a mask is strongly recommended. Assuming pre-pandemic attendance rates, you can expect 3600 visitors passing the booths in 2 days (opening hours are 8am-6pm on Saturday and 9am-6pm on Sunday). That is A. LOT. Which means the infection risk is way higher than on, say, public transport during a morning commute. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur X2Go's Event Planner & Lead Evangelist PS: The main reason for our booth volunteer shortage is that we were promised a mask mandate, but it has been dropped since. I was supposed to be one of the volunteers, but due to having a vulnerable household member, I will be unable to attend, given the higher risk. -- 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

x2go disconnect timeout
by Hanno Foest 06 Feb '23

06 Feb '23

Hello, I'm running a few always connected GUI applications on a server in an x2go session. This usually works fine, especially when I manually disconnect x2goclient after work (I have set X2GO_NXOPTIONS="sleep=0" in x2goagent.options). But when the x2go connection fails unexpectedly, e.g. because of network issues, or because I suspend my laptop without disconnecting x2go first, my GUI applications get stalled until they disconnect most of the time. After 2 minutes or somesuch they reconnect and keep running. I guess this is because the x2go server session waits for the x2go client to come back, and only disconnects (and keeps running in the disconnected state) after some timeout. I would like to know if this timeout can be configured somewhere. I would prefer to have to reconnect my client more often, instead of having the mentioned GUI applications reconnect. Thanks in advance. Hanno

x2gohtmlclient
by Jooris Mettler 23 Jan '23

23 Jan '23

Hi, im currently trying to figure out the x2gohtmlclient. I have a server with x2go installed and want to run the webserver on a different machine. From my understanding, the x2gohtmlclient-Host contacts the x2go server using ssh. I did the following: On x2go Server: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/nightly sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/ppa sudo apt update sudo apt install x2goserver x2goserver-xsession x2goserver-x2gokdrive SSH is on #mysshport. On x2gohtmlclient Server: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/nightly sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/ppa sudo apt update sudo apt install nginx fcgiwrap x2gohtmlclient sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/x2gohtmlclient-demo.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/x2gohtmlclient-demo.conf edit /usr/share/x2gohtmlclient/demo/index.html: sshport=22\n\ tosshport=#mysshport\n\ sshproxyport=22\n\ tosshproxyport=#mysshport\n\ finally: sudo service restart nginx I can access the Webinterface on localhost, but when I try to connect I only get "failed to connect to server, please check your login data". Connection via SSH works. x2go also server works. /var/log/nginx/x2gohtmlclient_error.log shows [error] 16702#16702: *1 FastCGI sent in stderr: "cgi-bin/x2gorpc.cgi line 259" while reading response header from upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: , request: "POST /assets/rpc/x2gorpc.cgi HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket:", host: "localhost", referrer: "https://localhost/" I would have expected that the empty "server: " would show my x2go server as entered in the webinterface. Did I miss something? Best, Jooris Mettler

Three X2Go Spnsorship Drives: 2022-12-06, 2022-12-11 and 2022-12-18
by Stefan Baur 05 Dec '22

05 Dec '22

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. This June, 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.) The Commercial and Savings Bank Ulm, where orca's bank account resides, is planning a single-day sponsorship drive for all charitable organizations registered with them via betterplace.org, on Tuesday 2022-12-06 (AKA "Santa Claus Day") starting at 09:00 CET and ending by 23:59 CET - so that's tomorrow. They will be matching each non-recurring donation up to 100 EUR with the same amount. Also, all donations made on Sunday, 2022-12-11 and Sunday, 2022-12-18 will receive 20% on top directly from betterplace.org. If you can, please visit the donation sites below 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> 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

freezing after update to fedora 37
by Neal Becker 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

Been using x2go for many fedora releases. After updating both client and server to fedora f37, I have a new problem. I've tried multiple desktops, including xfce and lxde, and have the same symptoms. After starting a session, it initially works fine. When I come back later to try to use it, it is frozen. So I have not disconnected from the session and reconnected. On the client side the screen was locked and then unlocked when I returned. The client did not suspend - it is running on A/C power. The session is frozen and completely unresponsive to input. Disconnect/reconnect it's still frozen. Only terminate/new session will unfreeze it. Any suggestions? Thanks Neal

Two Upcoming X2Go Events: X2Go: The Spread 2021.5 and 2022
by Stefan Baur 22 Nov '22

22 Nov '22

Hi $ALL, It's been a while, but now it is time for not only one, but two X2Go Events. As you all know, the Covid-19 pandemic kept us from hosting our usual X2Go: The Gathering events in 2021 and 2022. So instead of gathering, we'll now spread out. Instead of meeting for a weekend in "meatspace", like we used to, we'll now meet online during the work week starting 18:00 CET/MEZ each day (or possibly even later, given volunteer feedback), and only for a few hours each day. X2Go: The Spread 2021.5 (2022-11-28 to 2022-12-02) is the replacement event for X2Go: The Gathering 2021, which had to be cancelled due to illness of several core members. This event starts in a little less than a week - but if you can't make it on such short notice, do not worry. X2Go: The Spread 2021.5 will be more of an informal virtual meetup, with people working on "behind the scenes" stuff, testing out our streaming/recording equipment, etc. The "real deal" will be X2Go: The Spread 2022, which is also scheduled for the evening hours, but will take place from 2022-12-12 to 2022-12-16 (with a possible extension to one of the weekends before or after - we'll see). This is where we'll also have the annual orca e.V. meeting. The date and time for the orca e.V. meeting is fixed: 2022-12-16, 20:00 CET/MEZ. This is the event where we'll see/hear a talk each evening, and work on getting our releases out. Of course, both events have their own wiki page to track progress and updates: X2Go: The Spread 2021.5: <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-spread-2021.5> X2Go: The Spread 2022: <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-spread-2022> Kind Regards, Stefan Baur, X2Go's Event Planner -- 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

Copy/Paste Xubuntu 18 and block inicial session
by Rodrigo José Petreça 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Good morning people, I'm using X2go Server Client in my company. I'm exporting via ssh a simple application compiled in flagship 8. The export is ok, but if I open a screen and try to copy and paste the text, it doesn't work. This issue is only affecting xubuntu 18.04.05 The same server with client on windows or xubuntu 22.04 does not have the problem. Any tips to resolve this? Another thing, when opening x2goclient on windows or linux, we have several accesses configured all with custom command. Would it be possible to block this screen, so that the user cannot change the command? Sometimes the simple scroll of the mouse scrool ends up changing the configuration.

Sound forwarding between linux server and linux client
by Leonid Titov 06 Nov '22

06 Nov '22

Hi all, I try to setup a remote desktop using x2go with a headless Linux VM as a server (Centos 8 Stream) and Linux desktop (Fedora 35) as a client. I have successfully set up generic desktop sharing and now fighting with sound forwarding. I have ticked 'Enable sound support' and chose 'Pulseaudio' at X2Go client (native X2Go v.4.1.2.2 QT client). I've configured the PulseAudio natie tcp module on both sides. However, I see only 'Dummy' sound device at remote end, and no sound at the client side. Can anyone help with suggestions, how to troubleshoot this setup? -- Best regards, Leonid.
