Dear people of X2Go,
I did a fresh install of Debian 9 in a VM. I installed X2Go as stated here: https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:installation:x2goserver
Then I tried to install the thin client environment as explained here:
https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:advanced:tce:install
I did not manage to get it running. First, I tried x2gothinclient_create with mainly the default options. The process aborted, in between 404s came up because the x2go-repos apparently don’t have wheezy support anymore. Then I switched to stretch and tried again. This seemed to work out, but the following links in /srv/tftp are broken (i.e. the files are missing) pxelinux.0 -> /usr/lib/syslinux/pxelinux.0 vesamenu.c32 -> /usr/lib/syslinux/vesamenu.c32 memtest86+.bin -> /opt/x2gothinclient/chroot/boot/memtest86+.bin
In a third try, I changed the release to jessie and started x2gothinclient_create over. The process then aborts with unmet dependencies of x2goclient-chroot…
I meanwhile noticed the existence of TCE Live, but stating "This page is very much Work in Progess. Please leave a note on x2go-user@lists.x2go.org if you're interested in trying this out, so we can guide you along if something goes wrong.“
So, here I am :)
My first question is: what is the recommended method for thin client environment?
What do I need to consider if I want to use the Live method?
Kind regards,
Jens
