The only problem: when I'm connecting from my Mac to the Linux machines, the keyboard is mapped incorrectly. I also tried changing the keyboard settings in the x2go client and X11 on the Mac, to no avail. The mouse is working correctly. I've got the same problems with the keyboard mapping (I'm also swiss and I use the french variant) with my Windows and Linux x2go client...
When I use the Windows client, forcing the keymap in the X2Go client does not map the keyboard at all. When I let it be the defaut, the keyboard is also not mapped (configured with Gnome keyboard setting as fr_CH). This is under Windows 7 64.
When I use the Linux client (qt), the keyboard is not completly mapped. The cursor keys does not work, and the "delete" key starts the gnome screen shooter (but it's not configured in the shortcuts in gnome). The good news is that if a switch to the german version (de_CH) than almost all keys are correclty mapped. This is under debian squeeze.
Have you tried to configure the keyboard in your X11 session (gnome settings or kde...), not at the X11 level ?

No, I didn't change the X11 settings on my two linux machines. After reading the mail, I changed it in the x2go session on the linux machine (ubuntu, gnome). First I choosed the swiss german mac layout to no avail. Then I changed the keyboard model to all variants but also to no avail. Bad news...
Thanks anyway for the help. Tomorrow, I'll try to change to the french layout. If I'm lucky, this helps as described vice versa (priciple of hope...). I keep you informed.
