x2go <-> linux mint 21
by Loïc Roemelin 27 Nov '23

27 Nov '23

Hi, I'm new to x2go. I'm using Linux Mint 21, and I've installed the x2go server on several machines for testing. I'm mainly facing three issues: 1 On two machines, I failed to establish the initial connection. Upon the first connection to this access (on the local network), the connection is cut almost instantly.The message indicates "terminating session" and "session terminated." Note that on the same device, I can connect without any problems when using the internet 2 I'm initially on Linux Mint XFCE, and the connection works, but it's nearly impossible to work due to window movements leaving all windows displayed, etc. 3 On LXDE, which I've loaded and works quite well, it asks me for the administrator password when opening the session, even if I've entered with another access, which seems abnormal to me. The message indicates, "Authentication is necessary to create a color management device." Thank you in advance for your help, and I apologize for my lack of knowledge Loïc

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>.

x2gokdriveclient on wondows
by Andreas Weise 06 Nov '23

06 Nov '23

Hello x2go team, I'm using x2go for many years and it works rock solid. Thank you very much for that software. I have rcently set up a new server with debian 12 and x2go-kdrive server and cinnamon desktop. Together with the x2gokdriveclient it works very well on local computers on linux. I could not find a windows version of kdriveclient. As I'm not too familar with windows and absoluty not familar with qt, I wasn't able to create the windows executable myself. Is there any way to get a windows executable? With best regards Andreas

How can I connect and view the Display Manager
by Esben Stien 26 Oct '23

26 Oct '23

I'm trying to log in and view the Display Manager login screen. I'm using SDDM as Display Manager, but I can use any kind of Display Manager, like gdm, to get this working. If I first log in, then I can connect using "Connection to local desktop" , but I want to view the login screen. Should this be possible with X2Go. I can't really find any documentation on this. It sort of bypasses the Display Manager. I'm on Xorg-1.20.14 on NixOS 22.11

Trying x2gokdrive again
by Neal Becker 23 Oct '23

23 Oct '23

I'm trying out Orion's packages of kdrive on F38 client: x2goclient-4.1.2.3-1.fc38.x86_64 x2gokdriveclient-0.0.0.1-2.fc38.x86_64 server: x2goserver-common-4.1.0.4-1.fc38.noarch x2goagent-4.1.0.4-1.fc38.x86_64 x2goserver-xsession-4.1.0.4-1.fc38.noarch x2goserver-4.1.0.4-1.fc38.x86_64 x2goserver-x2gokdrive-4.1.0.4-1.fc38.x86_64 Running kde on both client and server, so far working well. One bug: The command to start kde is no longer startkde, it's startplasma-x11.

AdminByRequest on X2go
by Jeff Thomas 20 Oct '23

20 Oct '23

Hello,I have installed AdminByRequest on Ubuntu 22.04. It works on the local machine. If a user attempts to do something that requires Admin privileges they will receive a popup that requires them to request admin privileges. Once they request it the popup disappears and rights are granted for the remainder of their session. (ABR logs the activity) For the few remote X2go users if they try to do something that requires Admin privileges they will see a message that ABR blocked it, but they do not get the popup to request it. ABR is looking at the issue, but I suspect they will say it is not intended to use on remote session, where multiple people may be signed in at a time... Though we only have a few remote users. Im hoping there may be a way to get the xcfe gui on x2go to display the ABR popup. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! ThanksJT

Fwd: x2go and ssh-agent forwarding
by graeme.x2go＠vetterlein.com 20 Oct '23

20 Oct '23

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: x2go and ssh-agent forwarding Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 21:21:48 +0100 From: graeme vetterlein <graeme(a)vetterlein.com> To: x2go-user(a)lists.x2go.org Anybody know if this is still current? https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:howto:ssh-agent-workaround It suggests a patch was available in 2017 I can see a fresh ssh-agent(1) is getting started (so blocking access to the original client one) also I note the use of /-oClearAllForwardings on the ssh call x2go makes ..... neither look like good news :-( / I did try (XFCE) : xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /startup/ssh-agent/enabled -n -t bool -s false xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /startup/ssh-agent/type -n -t string -s ssh-agent And indeed the ssh-agnet was not started, but SSH_AUTH_SOCK (to tmp/ssh-xxxxxx/agent.PID [ literally PID not a number ] FYI I need to use the keys to access github and I don't want to put them on the machine I'm x2going into. BTW. I also ran a test using a "custom desktop" of /usr/bin/lxterminal ...and in that terminal SSH_AUTH_SOCK was set to a non-existant filename(socket) in ~/.x2go -- Graeme

Debian resume does not work anymore after update to 4.1.0.6
by richard lucassen 14 Oct '23

14 Oct '23

Client and server "Debian Testing" This morning I got server version 4.1.0.6 using apt. When connecting using client 4.1.2.3-1 it works, but after a resume the client says that the session is still running so the only way to get back to the server is to terminate the session and to create a new one. I downgraded the server to 4.1.0.3-7+deb12u1 and resuming works again. I run a command x environment: /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/wmaker I'm at 1000km away from the server and as I use x2go all the time, so I won't be able for the moment to run some tests. Just FYI for the moment. I put these packages on hold: # apt-mark hold libx2go-config-perl libx2go-log-perl libx2go-server-db-perl libx2go-server-perl libx2go-utils-perl x2goserver x2goserver-common x2goserver-extensions x2goserver-x2goagent x2goserver-xsession in order to stay with version 4.1.0.3-7+deb12u1. Richard. -- richard lucassen http://contact.xaq.nl/

Complaints about windows resizing/moved on session resume
by Orion Poplawski 09 Oct '23

09 Oct '23

Many of our users are complaining about: something in the EL8/X2Go/KDE? interface now just runs roughshod over the windows you have open, between suspending and resuming sessions. Windows are re-sided, moved, opened, closed...at random. I often have multiple windows open and, for example, running IDL or editing or something, and I have them placed where I want as I am testing and debugging or writing code, I suspend / restore the session and come back to just randomly placed, sized, opened or closed desktop. **i don't like people mucking with my desktop** whether real or virtual!!! The three of us mentioned to each other that we feel like we are continually re-sizing, finding, and just spending time counteracting what has been done to our setups. So, what's going on what what can be done to stop it? Clients and server are EL8. Desktop environment is KDE. We have a mix of x2goagent and x2gokdrive sessions. We've removed kscreen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- Orion Poplawski IT Systems Manager 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/
