Hello everyone, I have a question about X2Go dependencies. What is the fuse-sshfs package used for? Will X2Go stop working if I remove it from my system? Thank you for your time, Ivan Gomez

Still having issues with restoring session.
by Bragg, Richard 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hello all. I am needing to move from NoMachine (v3 server) as it has problems with some applications on resume (linked to cairo libraries) but the client works exactly as I want which is to use a 4:3 monitor if attached. My laptop is Windows 7 and the monitor setup is one of Laptop on own - just use internal screen Laptop site 1 - internal screen is master, 4:3 is secondary Laptop site 2 - internal screen off, 4:3 is master, 16:9 is secondary. The NoMachine client will always run full screen on the 4:3 screen which ever it is and the session runs there too. Reconnection works fine and if on a different screen resizes automatically. The x2go client runs in its own window. I'm OK with that. I've only tested using Laptop site 1 at the moment. On initial session start up I can get it full screen on the 4:3 monitor. That's fine. But on session reconnect it opens in a window on the laptop screen and if I move to the 4:3 screen and maximize (not what I want exactly) the session doesn't resize itself. I use an external vcxsrv as the "embedded" version crashes on session reconnect. I'd also expect the session to move to the correct monitor if I disconnect from/connect to external monitors while session is running. Any help much appreciated.

Turn off ALL clipborad interaction -- even PRIMARY (middle mouse clicking activities)?
by Erik Starbäck 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hi! I really need to "sandbox" the user as much as possible. I managed to rewrite the x2go client so the clipboard sharing is "none" whatever they select. But is it also possible to turn off the classic X (PRIMARY) cut and paste-model? Ideally I want to keep it working "inside" the g2go-login, but I can live with a way to completely turn it off. So what I whant to achive is this: 1) No selection with mouse INSIDE the x2go-session should be middle-button-pasted outside the x2go-session 2) No middle middle-button-paste inside the x2go-session should "grab" information from the outside system. 3) All this must be activated on the server side -- but there it can be rather hard core fiddling... Any ideas? /Erik Starbäck

x2go performance again
by Stefan Seidel 31 Jan '17

31 Jan '17

Hi, some time ago I inquired about peoples experience with x2go in a LAN environment. I have now built a TCE live system (TFTP-only, no NFS) and a new Jessie server and I am still not very satisfied. I tried almost all available options. Here is the setup: 1GBit/s LAN on both sides Host: AMD 4.4GHz 8-core CPU with 32GB RAM Client: Pentium D 2.8GHz, 1GB RAM, nVidia 6200 with 2 screens@1200x1600 I tested MATE desktop with Firefox 51 (tried XRender on/off) and Chromium 55. I usually set the browser to fill half of the screen, that mean roughly the same number of pixels as a Full-HD (1920x1080) screen. I usually open https://www.heise.de and scroll up and down a bit. nopack: almost the best of it all, responsiveness good, Chrome and Firefox without XRender laggy rfb-hextile/tight: better for small screen updates, worse for large screen updates, scrolling in Firefox with XRender active is *very* smooth rdp: almost identical to rfb adaptive: middle ground, everything is laggy but at least there's always the same amount of lag for small and big screen updates. Unacceptable though because almost all text has JPEG artifacts no matter whether the quality is set to 1, 7 or 9. Graphics like Munin graphs are really ugly. 16m-png: good quality, mostly lag-free except Chrome and Firefox when XRender is off, becomes very unresponsive with lots of screen updates 16m-jpeg: artifacts, speed like adaptive I believe nopack or rfb would give better performance if it was possible to circumvent going through SSH. I have set SSH to use arcfour (this is a trusted, isolated LAN) and performance has been slightly better. Is there any way of making the initial authentication and startup through SSH but then having the NX connection going directly to the client? That would save a lot of processing power! (I'm thinking similar to the "tunnel" feature for sound.) Regards, Stefan

OpenSuse

The source of the stty turned out to be in my own .bashrc, don't know how I managed to miss it or why it did not stop x2go from working on any other distribution (centos 6/7, SL 6/7, debian, mint, ubuntu), all of those distributions worked in spite of it. Also don't know why .bashrc was sourced when my normal login shell is ksh. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Eskimo North Linux Friendly Internet Access, Shell Accounts, and Hosting.

Transport endpoint is not connected? RE: Shared Folders, from Windows to Debian8

Thank you again Stefan for the more detailed instructions, I am ~closer.

I also don't know the significance of the _mnt_home_kw*_.x2go_ssh_key.Ja4672__ which precedes the _cygdrive_ name that we are expecting. Is there something more I should have installed/running (Cygwin for example) on my Windows 7 laptop?

Windows folder > I am sharing on the Linux side? Well, if you don't check the automount box - nowhere until you mount them? How you mount them manually depends on what checkboxes you checked under Options/Settings/General. 1a) If you set X2GoClient to minimize into the system tray, then you right-click that icon, select the session name, then "Share folder ...". 1b) If, instead, you have the X2GoClient window on your screen even with an active connection, click on the small folder icon, that's the left of the three icons "Folder, Pause, Power". >From there, the steps are the same again for both variants. 2) Click the name of the share in the window that has opened now 3) Click the "share" button. If you either performed these steps or had the automount box checked, your mountpoint will be somewhere under ~/media/disk/, with a name starting with _cygdrive_. > My Windows laptop has a single-user authentication, whereas we use LDAP > on Linux, is this a potential problem? I do not believe so. The mount is performed by FUSE through a tunneled SSH connection, with the Cygwin SSHD spawning on your client, so it's your server connecting back to the client, using a temporary SSH key pair, so there's no exchange of your individual password involved. I'll try to come up with a HowTo with a few screenshots, but at present, my only Windows machine that has a US-English GUI is busy spinning its hourglass over the Windows Update window ... which is not surprising, as this was the first time since Mid-2014 that I powered it up. -Stefan -- 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

Shared Folders?
by KARL A. WOELFER 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

I am not able to get the basic Shared Folder capability to run. Debian 7 Linux OS on client and server, X2go V 4.0.3.0, and XFCE Desktop. Is there something fundamental preventing this from working? Thanks in advance, - KarlW

X2GO and Plasma5
by alfons 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

Time ago i was very happy with x2go to connect several users, simultaneously, to a KDE session server. Since KDE became plasma5 x2go give up running. I read "problems with libraries". Actually there is no alternative like this. May we expect x2go is going to run with plasma5 in the future? Thanks in advanced Regards *Alfons Sanchez Ferrer*
