all,A cursory reading of the online lit I found relating to x2gothinclient seems to require that the stations all pxeboot...
I don't want thinclients that pxeboot.. what I need is a minimal OS that is setup to autologin to X and then pyhoca-cli to the x2go-server... can the x2gothinclient packages do this say on a minimal debian install for the thinclient.. ?
Since I did not see this capability, I already built from scratch a minimal Debian 6 that does an autologin into X using gdm/matchbox wm, and then created a script that force loops a username/pw graphical dialog using yad (zenity fork)... suffice it to say this works well... but I'm thinking if x2gothinclient already had the capability to do this then I did it all for nought.. except it was definitely a good exercise...

I would sure like to know if this has got a follow up, but can't
find anything more about it on the list. Since i would like to create a minimal iso also with only a the
login manager to access the x2go server, if would like to know if
someone has succeeded in doing so.
The x2gothinclient package acts as a display manager nowadays. Install
it and it will ask you to replace gdm/kdm and alike.
With PyHoca-CLI there is another approach. We have extended Unity
Greeter's remote login feature so that now Unity Greeter can log users
into X2Go Sessions.
