Hi Mike, Thanks for the reply! Under normal circumstances, I'd be happy to take up the cause for RHEL. Unfortunately, we're migrating away from RHEL for the reasons that are being demonstrated here...nobody has intrinsic support for all the RHEL platforms on some of the fancy software that people want to use. Debian/Ubuntu/Mint all do have intrinsic support, and so we're preparing to move to that platform. If we were staying with RHEL, though, I'd certainly take up a role to help out, as I really do love x2go...it's becoming the centerpiece of our network based computing environment, and it's giving me a much needed Remote Desktop option to replace our SunRay equipment, since Oracle is mothballing that technology.
Thanks! -Kermit

Since I can't install the x2goserver on RHEL5, I was hoping to at least install a client that will get some users to RHEL6/Ubuntu machines. When I try to yum install x2goclient
I get a message that no x2goclient package exists. Sure enough when I browse the repo, there is no x2goclient package.
I can't even install pyhoca-gui because it needs things from x2goclient (per the README at least).
Anyone have any alternatives? -Kermit Short
X2Go Client sources should build on RHEL5 (they also built on Debian lenny). Maybe you give it a try?
And: maybe you take over the communication work amongst the RHEL people and enroll someone into building it for RHEL5, so in future you can download binary packages to RHEL5.
Thanks+Greets, Mike
