execute xmodmap on resume
by richard lucassen 31 Jul '18

31 Jul '18

Hello list, Not an x2go problem, but maybe someone might be able to guess what is happening here. I made a chmod 755 shell script: $ cat /usr/lib/x2go/extensions/post-resume.d/010-xmodmap #!/bin/dash test -f ~/.Xmodmap || exit 0 /usr/bin/xmodmap -display $DISPLAY ~/.Xmodmap When resuming an x2go session, the script is executed, but x2go session starts but does not show up. The problem is that in one or another way, the xmodmap executable is waiting for something, but I have no idea what. Putting the xmodmap line to the background using an "&" makes the x2go session start, but the xmodmap mappings are not set. I still have to set the key mappings manually by invoking "xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap". Anyone a hint on what's going on here? R. -- richard lucassen http://contact.xaq.nl/

If you are a novice X2Go user, and you can read German, this might be of interest for you.
by Stefan Baur 20 Jul '18

Hi List, X2Go has been covered by one of Germany's most well-known and well-renowned computer magazines, namely c't. The issue will hit the newsstands today, Saturday, July 21, 2018. It's the 16/2018 issue and the article starts on page 154. This article is meant for beginners; it covers the basics of setting up X2GoServer (on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) and X2GoClient (on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS as well as on Windows 10), and shows you how to use X2GoClient's single application, published application, and desktop environment modes, as well as its built-in file sharing feature. It also teaches you how to kill, or suspend and resume, a session, and how to get better browser performance than with regular Firefox or Chrome. If you prefer to buy and/or read it online, there are several ways of doing so: You can click on <http://ct.de/y9y2>, where you can access the link list and comment section for free - so it's worth clicking even if you don't intend to buy the article/the magazine. If you scroll up on that page, you will find a button to buy the single article using a credit card, and another button for paypal payments. Scroll up even further, and you can read the teaser text for the article. Or, you can visit <https://shop.heise.de/ct_1coa1807> and sign up for a free three-issue digital subscription (Warning: It will turn into a paid subscription if you don't cancel it in time) of the full c't magazine, Last, you can buy the full c't magazine, limited to the current edition, no unwanted subscription, online, either in PDF form by clicking here <https://shop.heise.de/katalog/c-t-16-2018-pdf?wt_pdsrc=category_c_t_magazin…>, or in paper, delivered to your postal address, by clicking here <https://shop.heise.de/zeitschriften/ct/magazin>. Assuming sufficient reader interest, there may be follow-up articles covering: * the various connection options and connection types, * using SSH key files, SSH Agents, and 2FA with one-time passwords like Google Authenticator or OATH TOTP, * using SSH proxies (Jump Hosts) as well as HTTP proxies, * the use of custom published application menus, * Session Shadowing, * Xinerama, * the various clipboard and keyboard settings, * Desktop Icons, * Client-Side Printing, * X2Go-TCE, and, last but not least, * the Session Broker. So if you're interested in learning more about any of these topics, in German, please either register a free account and leave a comment in the comment section on <http://ct.de/y9y2>, or send an E-Mail to the editor we've been assigned, Merlin Schumacher, <mls(a)ct.de>, and let him know which X2Go topics you would like to see covered in one of the next editions. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur (who happens to be the author of the article) -- 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

disappearing X window
by Andrew Munn 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

When reconnecting to a session the window appears briefly then disappears. The ssh session is still up. The only way I can get back into the session is if I go in the client and change it to fullscreen and then reconnect.

using a xfce compositor with x2go server/client
by Tim Klassen 14 Jul '18

14 Jul '18

I've just installed x2go server on a new desktop running linux mint 19 xfce. (My client is on Ubuntu 14.04.) I was disappointed to find that the xfce doesn't work with this setup. Have I done something wrong? Are there any other ways that I can get a compositor to work with x2go?

Looking for a Swedish Translator for X2Go Components
by Mihai Moldovan 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Hi Our current active Swedish translator stepped down recently. On behalf of the project, I am looking for someone to replace him and continue the well-maintained Swedish translations. If you are interested to help, please subscribe to the i18n mailing list[0]. More information regarding the translation process can be found on the i18n wiki page[1]. Note that most projects also have a README.i18n file in the source code repository, detailing how translations are done. Since we already have Swedish translations, all steps for adding a new translation can be skipped.

Hello all, I am working with a fresh X2Go install based on Debian 9. I recently discovered that the MATE screensaver is not activated when connected through X2Go. When I connect to the server locally, it works fine. Any suggestions? Kind regards, Jens

Keyboard doesn't work from Mac OSX to Scientific Linux 7 x2go server
by James M. Pulver 29 Jun '18

The keyboard is unusable when launching XFCE on SL7.4 via X2Go from OS X. icewm-session works fine on SL7, and XFCE works fine on SL6. We've tried different versions of the Agent with no change... -- James Pulver CLASSE Computer Group Cornell University

Hi! I wanted to run the x2go client from the command line to display the "username" and "password" fields only, like it happens when using pyHoca-GUI. The problem is that whenever my users hit the "CANCEL" button they always see the list of available sessions at the right of the window, which I wanted to avoid. I've tried a command line such as: x2goclient.exe --no-session-edit --disable-pulse --session=MYSESSION --close-disconnect --hide-foldersharing --no-autoresume --no-menu I don't want to use the pyHoca-GUI because it's too slow to start (at least in our environment) Thanks, alaxa
