Resume from different client?
by Les Mikesell 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

I'd like to be able to keep one x2go session running but disconnect and resume from different clients (Windows desktop, Mac, Windows Laptop), but generally when I try to connect from a client other than the one that started the session I can see the session listed but the resume option is grayed out. Should this work or are there some constraints on the client type or hardware differences? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

You could simply create the user homedir (copied from a skel dir) on system boot in a RAM disk.

Dear all, if you are a non-English native and are interested in getting X2Go software translated into your native language, please contact off-list so we can find out if how you can help us... Currently, only the Spanish, Swedish and German translations of X2Go are supported continuously. All other languages are in need of help!!! Thanks!

Need to use Alt-Tab
by Steve Harman 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

I have one major problem with using X2Go, which is such a wonderful piece of software. No matter what I did, I could not get it to understand Alt-Tab for switching windows. Some say using Ctrl - Alt - K works but it has no effect. Could someone please state clearly how this can be done. thanks Steve ps. Using Debian and X2Go (on both server and client). I connect as XFCE which is also my client desktop.

Can sessions of one user on different hosts collide?
by Holger Krause 10 Aug '14

10 Aug '14

Dear list, On four debian wheezy machines I have X2Go server running without any problems since several weeks. There are about twenty users regularly connecting from their personal windows PCs. Usually at any given time on every server there are a handful of active/paused sessions running concurrently. The home directories are exported via NFS from a file server and shared among the X2Go servers. Today, one user ('abbasi') told me, that since one or two weeks, he can only have one active connection to two of the servers (named 'lucas' and 'perrin') at a time, while before he could have active connections to both of them in parallel. Let me demonstrate an example with the error messages he gets. An extract of his session logs I put at the end of this mail. Initially the user has one (LXDE) session running on both, 'lucas' and 'perrin', but only the connection to 'perrin' is open (at 17:35). 17:36 User resumes session on 'lucas', which lets the 'perrin' connection close. 17:38 User resumes session on 'perrin'. The x2go client maintaining the connection to 'lucas' yields an error message labeled 'X2Go - 50': "No response received from the remote server. Do you want to terminate the current session? (Yes/No)" With no answer given, a second error message pops up some seconds later: "The connection with the remote server was shut down. Please check the state of your network connection. (OK)". Later on the user terminated LXDE on 'perrin' and logged in again, again loosing the connection to 'lucas'. Output of x2golistsessions_root is: root@perrin:~# x2golistsessions_root |grep abbasi 23451|abbasi-50-1407426323_stDLXDE_dp32|50|perrin|S|2014-08-07T17:45:24| ab801814ece01b66cf5b9095ef08d537|134.99.208.12|30001|30002| 2014-08-07T17:50:07|abbasi|10878|30003| root@lucas:/tmp# x2golistsessions_root |grep abbasi 31315|abbasi-50-1401721407_stDLXDE_dp32|50|lucas|S|2014-06-02T17:03:27| 2e6c06bec50eb7f89b1d165590a0a54d|134.99.208.12|30001|30002| 2014-08-07T17:45:27|abbasi|5715851|30003| What got my attention is, the sessions on both servers coincidentally having the same <port> (50), <gr_port> (30001) and <snd_port> (30002). Could this lead to confusion for the 'peer proxy' mentioned in the 'Error:' line in the 'lucas'-log? Looking forward to any suggestion, how to improve this situation. Thanks in advance!

I just updated this page with my test results: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:de-compat Note that for Cinnamon 1.4 to work, in X2Go Client, you must specify the Session Type as: Custom Desktop: gnome-session-cinnamon Compatibility issues with Cinnamon are being tracked in bug #150. http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=150 -Mike#2

FYI about X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.2.1+hotfix1+build2 and bug #564
by Michael DePaulo 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

TLDR: I released X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.2.1+hotfix1+build2 in order to update the bundled openssl to 1.0.1i (security fixes), but bug #564 was introduced and it is bad enough that I do not recommend using it yet. Continue to use 4.0.2.1+hotfix1. X2Go Devs, I also want to know if I should announce the release anyway on x2go-announcements. So I released X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.2.1+hotfix1+build2 in the sense that I did the following: 1. Uploaded it to http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/releases/4.0.2.1+hotf… 2. Generated the .md5 and .sha1 files However, I did not do the following yet: 1. Announce it on x2go-announcements (I'm not sure if I should announce it or not yet.) 2. Update the wiki page http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:release-notes-mswin:x2goclient-4.0.2.1 (I'll do so tomorrow, I need to get some lseep now.) I haven't announced it yet because I discovered bug #564 while testing it http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=564 As I explained in the bug report, I am shocked that a regression like this was introduced because I thought that openssl 1.0.1* updates were very unlikely to introduce regressions. And I thought that there was never a need to recompile anything due to these updates. (If 1.0.2 or 1.1.0 came out, then there would be a need to recompile.) This is why I didn't test the updated build of x2goclient before posting it to code.x2go.org/releases/ . I will look into this further tomorrow. In the meantime, I recommend staying with 4.0.2.1+hotfix1 until I fix this bug (or someone else fixes it.) I also want to know if I should announce the release anyway on x2go-announcements. -Mike#2
