I now have a second user on Mac who has issues with X2Go being very flakey, hanging etc. This is connecting to a Scientific Linux 6.5 server. We don't see hangs and crashes often or at all on Windows with the X2Go client.
This is what the user reports:
Just now I was able to use X2Go from my office Mac and with ICEWM with no problems. Then I exited, and tried to reconnect. It hangs at "Status: running" for about a minute, at which point I receive an error dialog box, "No response received from the remove server. Do you want to terminate the current session?"
I tried reconnecting once more with no luck. Then a third time after restarting X2Go, which did make it work.
Then I logged out and restarted again. This time it hung again, along with the entire X2Go client. Forcing quit and restarting, then trying to reconnect gave a different, "Access denied" error.
OK. After more quitting & restarting I was again able to reconnect.
So my question is: is this sort of behavior normal - say on the windows side? It seems extremely flaky.
