Hello,
I've installed x2go on the following platform:
CentOS 6.7, KDE x2goagent: 3.5.0.32 x2goserver: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-compat: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-extensions: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-fmbindings: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-printing: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-pyhoca: 4.0.1.19 x2goserver-xsession: 4.0.1.19
I access the server using the following:
Client 1: OS X El Capitan (Version 10.11.3) Mac x2go client (latest version) LAN connection (ping to server < 0.4 ms)
Client 2: Windows 10 Pyhoca-GUI (latest version) WAN/internet (ping to server <15 ms)
Under both clients, I sometimes experience a tremendous amount of unresponsiveness (more than a minute) where I cannot interact with the screen. Sometimes I get so impatient that I just terminate the session and start a new one.
Another issue that happens much more frequently is the incomplete redrawing of my screen, especially in EDA tools (Cadence Virtuoso). When zoom in/out of a design on screen, it becomes a scrambled mess. I have to hover my mouse over parts of the screen that did not redraw (sorta like using paint brush or an eraser to reveal the image beneath).
Running the same applications remotely through ssh/x11 tunneling, I have not encountered these issues (so far). But when x2go does behave well, I prefer it's experience especially when dealing with multiple sessions (suspending, terminating them) and how the windows behave.
A more interesting note, I installed x2goserver on an older server running CentOS (5.11) and the performance is very good. I do not encounter the aforementioned problems. One difference I noticed in my logs is that the new server (on CentOS 6.7) uses a deprecated QDBusConnectionInterface, while the older server does not show this in the log. In any case, I included the '.xession-x2go-errors' log file below from the CentOS 6.7 server.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best, Hyral
