Hi Stefan,
Just fyi, I can confirm the sticky repeat behavior on Win client 4.1.2.0 and prior versions using XFCE with geany on Ubuntu 18.04 but also on prior versions and CentOS versions and also on vim or mc.
Per my experience repeat works fine unless you also hold the SHIFT key while doing cursor movement to mark text for a longer time. Doing a SHIFT based mark with just a very brief repeat does not trigger the problem. Holding, e.g., SHIFT+<cursorright> in a longer text for more than a few 100ms tends to trigger the issue. Killing the client and reconnecting to the session again "fixes" things. Given that is does not seem to be OS or application dependent for me, I am suspecting a client topic of some sort with respect to qualifiers and event queues.
I have recently switched to Win client 4.1.2.2 and have not had the problem since. It may just be statistics and not a fix to any keyboard event queues though. This is not a scientific analysis.
Best regards,
Heinz

Hi, I have a sticky keys problem, when I connect from windows 10 pc to a linux server using x2Go version (4.1.2.0), connection type: XFCE. Then when I click shift + arrow right in order to mark a specific text and then release the keyboard the text is still being marked until the end of it. Also I cannot stop the operation, I need to restart the session. It happens using all editors, and using all arrows. Unfortunately, the latest version doesn't work, as it fails to connect to the server. Any suggestions?
Looks like you have several issues.
Regarding the sticky keys: What happens when you use a different desktop environment instead of XFCE, say, LXDE or MATE? If you don't have them installed and are unable to install them, you could also use "Published Applications" instead of a Desktop Environment for a test. Also, even though you say it happens using all editors, could you name one specifically that we can use to reproduce the issue?
Regarding the latest version of X2GoClient not working for you: Please try to install it again, and check the "debug" checkbox during installation. This will install x2goclient.debug.exe alongside x2goclient.exe.
After that, open a cmd.exe on your machine, cd to the installation directory, and run:
x2goclient.debug.exe --debug 2>&1 >%TEMP%\x2godebug.log
Then try to establish a connection. Close X2GoClient when the connection fails.
After that, open the file %TEMP%\x2godebug.log with an editor and paste its contents here.
