x2godesktopsharing
by Marco Isella 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi, I just discovered x2go while looking for an alternative to vnc. I got it working but I have not yet managed to share the same desktop between 2 users. If I understand it right I should install the x2godesktopsharing component. I followed the instructions found here (http://www.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:components:desktop-sharing) but there is no x2godesktopsharing candidate to install. The server is a ubuntu 12.10 and if I search for x2go there is no x2godesktopsharing found: marco@here:~$ sudo apt-cache search x2go x2goserver - X2Go server daemon scripts x2goagent - X2Go agent x2goclient - X2Go Client application (Qt4) x2goplugin - X2Go Client (Qt4) as browser plugin pinentry-x2go - Qt4-based PIN or pass-phrase entry dialog for x2goclient x2gothinclient - login daemon starting x2goclient in displaymanager mode x2gousbmount - clientside usb mass-storage device mounting x2gocdmanager - clientside daemon enabling automatic CD-Rom mounting x2gosmartcardrules - UDEV rules for smartcard readers python-x2go - Python module providing X2Go client API pyhoca-gui - Graphical X2Go client written in (wx)Python pyhoca-cli - Command line X2Go client written in Python x2goserver-extensions - X2Go server daemon scripts (extensions) plasma-widget-x2go - Plasma widget for control X2go sessions x2gothinclientmanagement - Management tools for X2Go thin client chroot server cups-x2go - Virtual X2Go printer for CUPS x2goserver-compat - X2Go server daemon scripts (backwards compatitbity to old client versions) x2golxdebindings - LXDE bindings for X2go x2goserver-printing - X2Go server daemon scripts (printing) x2goserver-xsession - X2Go server daemon scripts (Xsession runner) x2goserver-pyhoca - X2Go server daemon scripts (add-ons for pyhoca client) x2goserver-fmbindings - Generic (freedesktop-based) file manager bindings for X2Go python-x2go-doc - Python module providing X2Go client API (documentation) What I am missing?

run commands on the x2goclient
by Paul Daniels 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi guys, I've been playing with X2go for a while now, and have a Thin Client Environment(TCE) that I PXE boot from, or copy to USB and boot via syslinux (after I've changed the initramfs.conf and regenerated the initrd so it boots locally rather than via nfs). But Although X2go works well, its still not fast enough for watching videos. My solution was to put mplayer on the TCE and pipe video to it at the moment with netcat, but Ill probably move to a multicast solution when I get all of the other issues sorted. So on the client I need to run the command netcat $SERVER $PORT | mplayer -display 0:0 - now whilst I can open up a console terminal, log into the x2goclient user and run the command, or write something that does the same it would be nice to run a command from within the x2go-session that does just that. Ive tried using x2goruncommand but it seems to kill of my currently running session. Is there a supported way to run a command locally, from withing an established x2go session, or do I have to code something up myself Thanks Paul Daniels

Translators needed (esp. French)
by Mike Gabriel 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi all, the X2Go project is looking for someone who feels entitled to maintain the French translation of X2Go software projects (e.g. X2Go Client, PyHoca-GUI, ...). There currently is no French translation in X2Go applications and we would be happy to have that changed in the future. Please contact me via one of our lists or even privately. If you are interested in translating X2Go into your native language, please subscribe to this list... https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-i18n ... and ask for further instructions there. Current translations looked after are: Englisch German Russian Svedish Norwegian/Bokmal Dutch (PyHoca-GUI only) Spanish Danish (X2Go Client only) So anyone who wants to start working on his own language is very welcome to the project (actually, everyone who wants to contribute to X2Go is welcome ;-) ).

Why doesn't the X2Go Client have XFCE? Isn't there a way to set up XFCE? Why doesn't PyHoca work? I launch a remote host, it asks for signon and that is approved, but then nothing. Manual launch, and nothing. Debian Testing with X2Go 3.99.3.0-0 -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Send your email first class

zombie processes
by richard lucassen 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

Hello list, I'm newbie to x2go and tonight I installed x2goserver on a "Debian Testing" server. Everything works ok, but I see <defunct> zombie processes when starting x2goserver: 3748 pts/1 S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/x2gocleansessions 3752 pts/1 S 0:00 \_ sh -c /usr/lib/x2go/x2golistsessions_sql myhost1 2>/dev/null 3753 pts/1 S 0:00 \_ /usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/x2go/x2golistsessions_sql myhost1 3760 pts/1 R 0:00 \_ /usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/x2go/x2gosqlitewrapper.pl listsessionsroot myhost1 I edited it just a bit because of line wrapping. After a few seconds three zombie processes remain: 3748 pts/1 S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/x2gocleansessions 3752 pts/1 Z 0:00 \_ [sh] <defunct> 3814 pts/1 Z 0:00 \_ [sh] <defunct> 3825 pts/1 Z 0:00 \_ [sh] <defunct> Is this a bug or am I missing something crucial somewhere. I do not run gdm or something like that on that machine. I also noticed that without starting the init script "x2goserver", I can start sessions from a client. Is that normal behaviour?

session resuming after disconnect/reconnect
by richter＠ecos.de 24 Oct '12

24 Oct '12

Hi, when a session gets disconnected (e.g. network connection is lost, computer is powered down, without disconnect) I cannot simply resume the session after the next connect. I have first to pause the session, that wait a long time (don't know exactly how long, but needs to be more than 30-60 seconds) and than I am able to resume the session. If I simply pause/resume the session or try to take it over, the operation fails and the session is closed. Looks like after the pause of the old session, something does not get terminated correctly and needs to timeout before I can resume the session. Simply pausing/resuming a session works without problems, as long as the ssh session isn't closed in between. It also works if I pause the session, than disconnect the ssh connection. Than I can resume after I have reconnected to the server. Regards Gerald

ssh parameter?
by richter＠ecos.de 24 Oct '12

24 Oct '12

Hi, I am using PyHoca on Windows. Sometimes pyhoca disconnects from a server (while for example putty keeps connected to the same server). I guess there is some time out or keep alive that is too low, so the session gets disconnected, when the connection is unreliable. This there some way to configure the ssh parameters (e.g. configfile)? Also for some host the ssh host key has been saved and for others every time I connect I have to answer yes to accept the host key. Is there any way to tell pyhoc to save the host key? Thanks & Regards Gerald

x2gothinclient problems
by Stefano Simonucci 20 Oct '12

20 Oct '12

Hi! I'm a new x2go-user. I tried to install a x2go-server which contains also a netboot image for many thin clients. I followed the documentation of the web page http://www.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:components:tce I get a lot of errors. First of all I observed that the command x2gothinclient_preptftpboot generates a few files which are symlink to other files. These files are not visible by a tftp link (which is the initial step of a net boot). So I have changed the links with hard links. Furthermore the symlink are not corrected. They seem defined with respect the /opt/x2gothinclient/chroot directory. With the hard links the thin client boots correctly and the x2gothinclient program starts. But when I try to connect to my x2goserver I get an error message like this: proxy problem etc ... In the server side in the file /var/log/auth.log I get the following message When I use an installed debian distribution with the x2go client I get access to the x2goserver. Thank you in advance Best regards Stefano

Kde4 and Plasma Mess - Is anyone working with it?
by Helmer Teles 17 Oct '12

17 Oct '12

Hi dear, Fellows. i've been working with x2go for some time, but now i'm entrenched with KDE4 after many years with KDE3 running great with nomachine. KDE4 is still a mess nowadays. As anybody knows KDE4 has lots of problems with sizing and resizing of plasma panels, screen geometry and other stuff as usal. So i had to code lots of scripts that take use of x2goserver-run-extensions: What these scripts do is resize the plasma-panel and resize the screen geometry when resuming a session in case of the resuming is done in another Desktop or laptop with a change in resolution. My problem is that for plasma to assume the new resolution you have to kill it and start-it once again after you change plasma-desktop-appletsrc with the new values. So, when you do this after resuming the session, every time you move/maximize/minimize a window they slow to a crawl. How to test/reproduce this sympton. If you have a x2goserver installed with a kde4 session, kubuntu or other, start a session, go to konsole and do: kquitapp plasma-desktop && plasma-desktop & after plasma start if you try to move any window around everything will be allright and fast as before. After that do the same thing but after a x2gosuspend and in a runing resumed session try to move your konsole window around the desktop, it will lag like hell. If you this on a real display on your laptop, or in a running session everything will run fast as before. P.S: i'm sending this same email to both user & dev mailing list.
