Yes, I don't know why it is an issue with Debian 8, I have Debian 8
and haven't had that problem, but here is the fix:

     These instructions are for Ubuntu 16.04 but work on the Debian based
systems derived from it like Mint 18:

Subject: Re: [X2Go-User] Desktop does not resize

xrandr -s (width)x(height)
works if I call it in a terminal, it resizes the Window. But I cannot make
the window bigger after that, and making it smaller does not make the
content smaller. It seems that whatever used to call this xrandr
dynamically when I resize the window, stopped doing that.
I wonder what broken, this is a fresh install (wiped all the preexisting
configs) of all the x2go components on an existing system and on Debian 7
that I had before the upgrade it was working for years without a flaw.
Are there any log files that the x2go server component puts out that I can
take a look at?

Thanks,

Markus

     Which version of which operating system?  In the newer Linux's,
Fedora 24,
Ubuntu 16.04, and now Mate 18, there is an issue with the version of
xrandr.

     You can manually set by calling it from a terminal:

        xrandr -s (width)x(height)

I'm having the exact same problem:
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/233163/how-to-fix-x2
go-desktop-that-does-not-resize-contents-to-fit-in-remote-desktop-w

Except that I erased the .kde config, to start fresh and it did not
improve
the situation. I also specified 800 x 600 as window size, but x2go resizes
the window without me asking to do so to full display size and it is still
not enough to display everything, the task bar for example (kde) is off
screen.

Thanks

Markus
