Network of Debian 12 workstations, seem to have SSH issues more than X2Go issues
by Nasi Chassoulas 23 Jan '24

23 Jan '24

Hi all, My first post here. I have spent a few weeks trying to set up X2Go to manage a small network of Debian based workstations. Some of them are user workstations, some headless servers, some using Gnome (X11 as far as possible, not Wayland). I have had some success accessing user desktops sessions, but I have broken this with some sshd_config changes. I would appreciate any advice. I have checked some logs, with this being the most obvious issue. XSession-x2go: X session started for administrator at Tue 16 Jan 2024 20:51:43 SAST dbus-update-activation-environment: setting DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/tmp/dbus-kVdJKgUoT3,guid=bc3f454dec8a0f9639cff89f65a6d03f dbus-update-activation-environment: setting DISPLAY=:51 dbus-update-activation-environment: setting XAUTHORITY=/home/administrator/.Xauthority dbus-update-activation-environment: warning: error sending to systemd: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 xrdb: Connection reset by peer xrdb: Can't open display ':51' xhost: unable to open display ":51" In the X2Go client, on some clients I get the 'session select' window, on others I get stuck in a password prompt loop. If its not a basic issue with X, I suspect its with SSH. I appreciate any help offered. Thanks for the development of a great product. Thanks, Nasi

only a black screen in the X2Go Session
by Poupart Erwann 10 Jan '24

10 Jan '24

Hi all, I'm a new user of X2Go. I have installed the X2Go server on a centos7 VM and a X2Go client on my PC (Windows). When I start a X2Go Session trying with Gnome (GDM active on my server) or even with XFCE, I only have a black screen that appears with no window manager or anything else to interact. Is there some specific configuration to do on the server side ? Thanks by advance for any help. Regards, Erwann.

X2go K Drive Server
by Stuart MacGregor 02 Jan '24

02 Jan '24

Good Morning, Excuse me for my ignorance/, /but how accurate/up to date is the kdrive section of the x2go wiki? It hasn't changed in 3-4 years, however quite a lot has been said about kdrive recently. I have had the kdrive server installed n my Ubuntu 22.04 machine since before it was moved to "stable", however I have yet to succeed in using it. Most of the computers on my home network are Windows machines. The Windows x2go clients have a kdrive check box, however when you check that box (on Windows or Ubuntu clients) and try to connect to the x2go server, nothing happens. Without the box checked all the x2go clients will connect to the server, allbeit with the graphics limitations and lag intrinsic to the original x2go when connecting to "modern" desktops. I use KDE Plasma. (Note that the "default" settings in the x2go clients for connecting to KDE Plasma desktops have not worked since I started using a Ubuntu server with x2go in 2020, you have to choose a "custom" connection and use the command "startplasma-x11") Do I need to make some manual modifications on the x2go server to get kdrive running? If I do so, do I risk the Windows machines loosing the ability to connect? Again, apologies if all this information is already available and I have just not seen/found it. As I said I have been using x2go since 2020 and it was very useful when I was trapped in my bedroom for a week with COVID in 2022. I am just hoping that kdrive will improve its performance and am too stupid/ignorant to get it working without some help. Regards Stuart MacGregor

New Donation Options for X2Go/Upcoming Sponsorship Drive on NYE
by Stefan Baur 28 Dec '23

28 Dec '23

Hi $ALL, One result of X2Go: The Spread 2023 was that we decided to re-organize our donation options. As before, you can make donations to orca e.V. (our registered nonprofit) and X2Go in general. However, now you can also make a dedicated donation towards X2Go's infrastructure or events. You can find the links to both the old and new donation options right on X2Go's Wiki frontpage: <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php> We are also investigating if we can use the platform to fund further development on X2Go, e.g. by putting up funding goals for certain features, but this will take some more time - first we'll need some legal counseling so as not to endanger orca e.V.'s non-profit status. And this legal counseling will have to be donation-funded as well ... Important: On New Year's Eve, 2023-12-31, all non-recurring donations up to 100 EUR will receive 15% on top from betterplace.org (donations above 100 EUR will receive 15 EUR on top, regardless of the amount), until the top-up budget of 8 000 EUR across all projects registered with betterplace is reached. This starts midnight 2023-12-31 CET, so the earlier you donate on that particular day, the higher the chances that your donation towards orca/X2Go will receive the additional 15%.

X2Go: The Spread 2023 - Recordings/How-To-Videos Now Online
by Stefan Baur 28 Dec '23

28 Dec '23

Hi $ALL, Our annual X2Go event took place from December 11 to December 15. All presentations/discussions were streamed live via YouTube, and are also available as recordings via the following playlist: <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWDo4PkY3E0PysVmbKIklP8xnQ2ersigh> If you missed the live event, I strongly recommend watching the recordings - some of these presentations are "How To"-videos, think "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About X2Go* (*But Were Afraid to Ask)". So if you've never used anything but a complete remote Linux desktop via X2Go, or if you've never bothered to look at what other options than pxelinux exist for netbooting a ThinClient, you'll learn something new here. Kind Regards, Stefan Baur -- 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 and Synopsys Custom Compiler
by Mike MacNeil 07 Dec '23

07 Dec '23

Hello, Having issues with X2GO and Synopsys Custom Compiler. When a designer brings up a layout design in custom compiler X2GO crashes on the client end and crashes custom compiler. The X2GO session is still running and the user can reconnect - but the custom compiler is closed and needs to be restarted. Any thoughts? I turned on 'debug' for logging but it does not show much - if anything. Updated x2go server and surrounding packages to 4.1.0.6-0 Turned on telekinesis Really not sure what is happening - VNC works without issue. Thank you

X2Go: The Spread 2023 - You (K)Drive Me Krazy! 2023-12-11 to 2023-12-10
by Stefan Baur 11 Nov '23

11 Nov '23

Dear $ALL, In exactly one month, from December 11th to December 15th, we'll have our annual X2Go meeting for users, admins and code contributors to X2Go - once again, 100% virtual/online, so it's a "The Spread" and not a "The Gathering" once more. We're hoping to see you there. We'll post a link to a virtual meeting room in due time, and expect to be streaming/recording the event to YouTube or a similar platform as well. Starting time will likely be 20:00 CET, as last year, unless a significant number of participants requests an earlier start time (say, 18:00 CET or 19:00 CET) - please let me know (off-list, see below for contact details) if you'd like to request an earlier start time. Sadly, in summer, where Covid numbers and weather conditions would have allowed for a real-life meeting, we had a scheduling conflict. And as the numbers are rising again, we cannot in good conscience host a real-life international conference - especially as some of our members have vulnerable household members or are vulnerable persons themselves. The event page (still work in progress) can be found here: <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-spread-2023> Each evening has one, max. two time slots for a talk/presentation. At the moment, three topics are confirmed: - The usual "X2Go: State of the Union" opening speech - A report looking back at our latest stable X2Go release, which brought KDrive into the stable repository, and showing what still needs to be done Re: KDrive. - A report on how we used betterplace.org for collecting X2Go-related donations in the last 18 months, and an open discussion on how we could improve our usage of this platform. I am also hoping for a certain volunteer to commit to a fourth presentation regarding the latest changes and improvements in NX-Libs - since Arctica/NX-Libs pushed out a new release as well (on which our X2Go release is also based, obviously). This means we will have at least one more open talk slot - possibly more, if the two release reports for NX-Libs and X2Go only take 10-15 minutes each. If nobody volunteers, I might fill that remaining slot with a quick demo of how to netboot X2Go-TCE-Live via iPXE in EFI and legacy mode. But I'm really hoping for more volunteers for talks/demos/presentations - so if you would like to present something X2Go/NX-Libs/Arctica-related, please let me know (again, off-list, see below for contact details). We also have the option to prerecord your talk, in case your schedule doesn't allow for a live presentation and/or your internet connection is too flaky. It would be nice if you're available for a live Q&A round after your talk, though (via text-only chat or audio-only stream is fine). Please note that this time, the orca e.V. annual meeting will take place on the Sunday morning *before* the start of X2Go: The Spread 2023. All orca e.V. members have already received their invitation. To contact me, please do not hit "reply"/"reply to all"/"reply to list", but rather, send a *new* E-Mail to <mailto:X2Go-ML-1@baur-itcs.de>.
