I have just installed x2go (server on my xubuntu 18.04 desktop, client on my xubuntu 18.04 laptop).
I am using it to run Digikam as a 'Single Application'. I must say it was incredibly easy to set up and get working, congratulations to the developers.
The text in Digikam is a bit too large, i tried increasing the DPI in the session settings but that seemed to have no effect (or maybe it made the text even bigger!). So, is there a way to make the text smaller?

It's OK, *reducing* the DPI makes the text smaller, the opposite of what it says in the wiki. Maybe it's different when running a whole desktop.

That really should have worked -- at least, changing the DPI works well for me. By how much did you change the DPI? Maybe you should try a larger increment and see if it makes any difference.

As I added later it turned out that I needed to *reduce* the DPI to make the text smaller. I think this may well be because I was using 'Single Application' rather than displaying the whole desktop. It does seem it would be worth mentioning in the documentation.
