Hi all, TL;DR; the registration deadline for the upcoming X2Go Gathering @Linuxhotel.de (31st Oct - 2nd Nov 2014) is coming close (booking accomodation for the event will not be reliably possible beyond 18th Sep 2014, which is tomorrow). Read http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.terminal-server.x2go.announce/125 for further details. We'd love to welcome all people at the event, that are interested in X2Go, use X2Go, have contributed to X2Go, or have not yet contributed to X2Go. We'd be happy to welcome everyone associated to our project and look forward to get each others' faces (better). Please send your questions / registration / accomodation bookings to Stefan Baur (X2Go-ML-1 <at> baur-itcs.de). If you intend joining us (you really should!!!), please take the time to fully read the original announcement post "X2Go: The Gathering 2014" [1] sent out by Stefan Baur. Thanks and hopefully CU at the event!!!

Testers Wanted: X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.0-pre01
by Michael DePaulo 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

In preparation for the upcoming release of X2Go Client 4.0.3.0, a preview build of X2Go Client for Windows is available for download under: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/previews/4.0.3.0/ (Last I talked with Mike#1, X2Go Client 4.0.3.0 is due sometime next month.) It is based on commit 2ffcad0 (which should have fixed bug #566, but testing is still pending) and is built with MinGW 4.8. (X2Go Client 4.0.2.1 was built with MinGW 4.4.) The default build is the same as the nightly build 4.0.3.0-2014.09.16-2ffcad0 (except for the updated version string in add/remove programs and the filename.) The debug build is also available here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/previews/4.0.3.0/non-… There are no longer any miscfonts or fullfonts builds because those fonts are now optional components in the installer. This has also increased the size of the installer from about 20MB to about 50MB. See bug #108 for details. http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=108 You can read the full changelog for 4.0.3.0 so far here. http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=blob;f=debian/changelog;h=a5… -Mike#2

x2go with broker - disabled suspend?
by Michael Gale 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Hello, I am using the latest release of x2go QT client with a broker and a few x2go servers. I would like to disable the suspend option and always terminate, is that possible? I can't find a configuration option. The end users are running browsers only, if I could run a script on suspend or disconnect I could just kill the session myself. Michael

Testers Wanted for X2Go Client 4.0.3.0 nightly Windows builds built with MinGW 4.8 instead of 4.4
by Michael DePaulo 15 Sep '14

15 Sep '14

The new MinGW 4.8 builds are under here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/heuler/mingw32-4.8/qt… The old MinGW 4.4 builds are under here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/heuler/mingw32-4.4/qt… Tester feedback (in the form of emails or bug reports) will help me decide whether to make the official release of X2Go Client 4.0.3.0 based on MinGW 4.4 or MinGW 4.8. Last I heard, X2Go Client 4.0.3.0 is scheduled to be released sometime next month. If you encounter a bug/issue, please test if the corresponding MinGW 4.4 build is affected also. You can tell what build you are running by going to help -> About Qt. MinGW 4.4 builds use Qt 4.8.5. MinGW 4.8 builds use Qt 4.8.6 Technically the builds are not "nightly builds" because they are automatically built whenever an x2goclient git commit is pushed to code.x2go.org. The 7 characters at the end of the version string is the git short hash of the git commit (revision) it was built from. This enables testers and developers to identify what exact version of X2Go Client they are using when there are multiple commits the same day. I just updated our build scripts to add this feature. (Final releases will not have a hash at the end of their version string.) More details about the MinGW upgrade here: http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=474 -Mike#2

Caps-lock key as Ctrl
by Chitresh Bhushan 13 Sep '14

13 Sep '14

Hi, This probably another Caps Lock problem with remote desktop applications. I am an emacs user and I have made Caps-lock key an additional control key on both of my computers (using similar settings as http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MovingTheCtrlKey#toc2 ). All my computers are running Mate desktop 1.8 and Caps-lock key work as expected (i.e. as ctrl) on both computers on local session. However, when I am connected to the other computer using x2go pressing caps-lock key seem to do nothing at all on remote session - pressing caps-c just prints lowercase c in terminal (& in emacs). Checking the output on xev on remote session does show keycode 66. This issue is really getting into my work flow as I am a heavy emacs user. Is there a solution or workaround? Could using a custom ~/.xmodmap resolve the issue? I just want caps-lock key to always work as ctrl and I am fine with totally getting rid of caps-lock behavior. PS: Thanks a lot for developing x2go. It is really convenient piece of software. Thanks, CB

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 X2Go: The Gathering 2014 @ Linuxhotel This year's X2Go community event will be a three-day "work and play" (coding, chatting, sightseeing, socializing) event at Linuxhotel, Essen, Germany. *ATTENTION!* If you want to join us *and* want to sleep in one of the hotel rooms at the Linuxhotel, we need the number of beds and nights you want to reserve, as well as *your full name* (as printed on your passport) and *your nationality* by *2014-09-18* *23:59:59* *CEST* (yes, that's 2014-09-18, *not* 2014-10-18)!!! Very important!!! After that date, we will be unable to reserve a room for you! First come, first serve! Please send your reservation request to X2Go-ML-1(a)baur-itcs.de with the text "The Gathering" somewhere in the subject and bug me publicly on the X2Go-Dev list if you don't receive a confirmation by e-mail after a day or two. Currently, the following core team members already have valid registrations and thus do not need to re-register: - - Mike#1 - - Mike#2 - - Stefan Baur - - Heinz-M. Graesing (Sat/Sun only, so far) (@Heinz-M. Graesing: Please let me know ASAP regarding Fri/Sat.) If for some reason or other you do *not* need a place to sleep at Linuxhotel, but *do* want to join us, please *still* let us know in advance that you're planning to visit. There's no such hard deadline as for the room reservations, but you will need to "check in" (see "Admission fee" below) for our gathering with the Linuxhotel staff, so please *do* let us know in advance. *Costs for Linuxhotel hotel rooms* Rooms are available at 15 EUR/night (and since we're a two-night-, three-day event, expect to pay 30 EUR total for the room). Note that this is the price for a *shared* room, i.e. you will have at least one other person (in some rooms, even two) sleeping in the same room with you. If you want a *single room*, the *price doubles* and we need to know *ASAP*, as the amount of single rooms at Linuxhotel is *very* limited - only 3 rooms available! It is also possible to book only one of the two nights if you can't make it for the entire weekend, but don't want to miss out on all the fun. *Admission fee* 5 EUR/day, again, since we're a three-day event, expect to 15 EUR total. This is a per-person conference room/infrastructure rent and beverages flat rate - *this includes beer and wine*! Food is not included in this fee. Expect that there will be no lunch/dinner served by Linuxhotel, thus it's totally cool with the Linuxhotel management if you bring your own (if you're flying in from abroad, please check import restrictions) or order from a delivery service. *Payment* You will have to pay in cash *upon arriving at Linuxhotel*. Sorry, we can't accept credit cards, debit cards, wire transfers, bitcoins or other forms of payment for this event - *cash only*. Also, all payments must be made in *Euro, not in foreign currencies*. Sorry about that, too. The processing fees for non-cash and/or non-Euro payments would drive up the prices. We will be updating the Wiki page http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:start?&#x2gothe_gathering_2014_linuxho… as more information becomes available. Certain things, like our breakfast options, or having lunch/dinner served by Linuxhotel instead of having to order from a delivery service (as it stands now), can only be planned once we know the exact number of participants. *For now, here's the Wiki text* X2Go: The Gathering 2014 @ Linuxhotel Date: 2014-10-31 to 2014-11-02 Three-day event at http://www.linuxhotel.de (for conditions, see: https://www.linuxhotel.de/community.html / http://www.linuxhotel.de/community.en.html, Essen ("work and play" gathering; grid power, wifi, hotel style rooms, youth hostel-like service, recreational facilities available, sightseeing tours/group entertainment available in the evening) Plan for Friday 2014-10-31: - arrival: 1800 hours/6pm local time (CET - Central European Time - note that daylight saving time in Germany ends a few days before this date) - option to order Pizza, bringing your own food is OK, too. - get-together in the chimney room (there's Wi-Fi and power, so if you want to code away, feel free to do so) Plan for Saturday 2014-11-01: - breakfast between 0900 hours/9am - 1000 hours/10am local time - coding session in meeting room - English guided tour: http://www.zollverein.de/angebote/about-coal-and-miners starting 1500 hours/3pm local time (note that we will have to leave Linuxhotel/Unperfekthaus before that, as our teleporter and time machine are still undergoing repairs ;-)) - depending on majority vote, we will either have lunch before the guided tour, or dinner afterwards. We will go to the http://www.unperfekthaus.de restaurant, as they offer "flat rate" food and all items on their menu are tagged in English and German. Plan for Sunday 2014-11-02: - breakfast between 0900 hours/9am - 1000 hours/10am local time - "room cleaning rage" (we need to clean the rooms ourselves, that's one of the reasons why the rates are so cheap) - ROOMS MUST BE CLEANED OF TRASH AND CLEARED OF YOUR PERSONAL BELONGINGS BY 1000 hours/10am local time! - stowing of personal belongings in chimney room or conference room - option to order pizza - coding session - departure is around 1530 hours/3:30pm local time Responsibilities: - planning and preparation - Stefan - liaison for Linuxhotel staff between 2014-10-31 and 2014-11-02 - Mike#1 Sincerely, Stefan Baur, "X2Go: The Gathering" event organizer - -- 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 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUEJPdAAoJEG7d9BjNvlEZBF0H/2lsBsfLNWkgjwboAl+I3mLX cMoT1L88RLuXOWeNVJazRRb/rhwwMuKTnxMYx7rJVv5IzfA+9Sn+cl5bpaxMg9n1 W1Vbq30bXT1vcGgzXDtdC5VhV1jjkw1iblpkReDmFstsNoCzlDU0xUofitcw805Q wIFx3IAB4ScOl9fZHL86nCx13GCPRDIGTPIQcbZ6+dodLLvJwXzZprHlcw1jcV2g 3FWzXe4AG1o8xszbAieiESal63/Yu62Z4atk9Rma4e3HZ47Fl7Bu+OnlhTKs0X4e Xap+6ci4h46usQu59TXtra4OKM5wHFB5uzfM7RsDG4FDnB4Vt93ULO75UrwcuZc= =kEBM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Most connections around me are async DSL connections... Works perfectly. For debugging... Does the same issue occur if you use pyhoca-gui instead of X2Go Client? What OS is the client-side: Linux/Windows/MacOSX?

No system tray for remote applications
by Tristan Miller 04 Sep '14

04 Sep '14

Greetings. My host machine runs KDE 4 on openSUSE. Occasionally I want to run remote KDE applications such as KTorrent or Kopete which are supposed to display an icon in the system tray. However, when invoked over x2goclient, the remote application's system tray icon is never displayed in my local machine's system tray. This is especially frustrating for applications which I've set to start minimized to the system tray by default, since then I have no way of getting them to appear on my desktop. (They run in the background just fine, but I have no way of interacting with them.) I was wondering if this is a known issue or if there's something I'm doing wrong. If this is a known issue, is it something that needs to be fixed in x2goclient or in the KDE applications themselves? Regards, Tristan -- _ _V.-o Tristan Miller >< Space is limited / |`-' -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- <> In a haiku, so it's hard (7_\\ http://www.nothingisreal.com/ >< To finish what you
