Haven't done anything on an android tablet but I've used x2go clients under Windows, Linux, and MacOS, and it hands down works the best under Linux. One nice thing about Linux is that with virtual desktops you can run multiple invocations connected to multiple servers. It does have a bug that sometimes when you setup a second or third connection it will knock down the existing connection and you have to re-establish. But if you set them up full screen then you can use cont-alt--> and cont-alt-<- to move between x2go sessions. Windows, no native virtual desktop. It also seems to be more sluggish and less responsive under Windows.

I want to travel light and still be able to connect "back home" via x2go if something needs my attention. I will be carrying an Android tablet, so it would be great if I could use that (along with an external mouse & keyboard). I see several options, but no clear indication of which is best:
- Android with the work-in-progress client
- Get a dual-boot tablet (Android/Win 10) and use x2go under Windows 10
- Dual-boot with Android & Linux and run x2go under Linux
I don't need sound or file sharing or printing, but I do need the setup to be reliable. Has anyone tried this? Has it worked for you?
thanks,
