Hello,
Is X2goclient working on Mac OSX? I read some messages that there are keyboard problems. Not sure they are gone.
Here is such a message, with a link to another message: http://www.mail-archive.com/x2go-user@lists.berlios.de/msg00632.html
When the problem is fixed, is this also the case for the Lenny version of X2go? (I have a customer with Macs who does not want to upgrade because the office will be closed in a few months.)
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.

Hi there,
I have just tried it again with the newest versions for both MacOS X (client) and Ubuntu 12.04 (server), and the behaviour of the keyboard is still random (i.e. unusable). However, I understand that this is not the same for all Mac Users, and I believe the exact combination of factors that cause x2go to misbehave is still unknown. It has been mentioned in the past that it might be related to the usage of NVidia drivers on the server side, and indeed I'm using these.
Best Regards, Ruediger

Thanks for your testing!
My customer has a server with a Matrox card: VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400/G450 (rev 82)
Are here people without this problem?

Here is a small update,
there has been suspicion that the keyboard problem is related to NVidia drivers. However, I am now running the x2goserver on a newly installed system without any NVidia parts -- namely it has AMD cards with Tahiti processors now + Ivy Bridge processor graphics. The Mac x2go-client keyboard is still messed up (i.e. unusable), independent of whether X is configured to use the processor graphics or the AMD devices.
So I guess the theory that this has to do with NVidia drivers cannot be upheld.
Note that I'm not using the latest MacOS version yet -- the client-side Mac rund MacOS 10.6.8 atm.
Best Regards, Ruediger
Hi Ruediger,
I got the same issue with ATI and nvidia server cards.
I have tried everything I know but not success. I also tried to add new Mac OS X with user language and keyboard map seted to US.
Servers are ubuntu (12,04, 11.10) and Macs are Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion.
So I'll have to see the code but not enough time in the next months...
I wonder if there are somebody working without keyboard map problem using Mac OS X2Go Client. Me no!
Regards, Ricardo

This is also a problem for me in a mixed Ubuntu/Windows environment, so I don't think it's confined to just Mac OS X either. It's a huge problem since you basically can't use normal text editor commands. Any progress or discoveries about this issue would be most welcome!

Hi everyone,
same problem with messed up keyboard layouts with x2go here:
Server Side: Ubuntu 12.04 with x2goserver 3.1.1.6-0~610~precise1 from the stable PPA Client Side: Mac OS X 10.6.8 with x2goclient 3.99.2.1 from the x2go website Keyboard Layout: en_us everywhere, and in x2goclient I checked "Keep current keyboard Settings"
They keys are messed up as follows:
expected: 12345 actual : ertyi
expected: qwert actual : -= w note: e is backspace, r is tab
expected: asdfg actual : 124 note: a and s don't insert anything
expected: zxcvb actual : 56780
expected: space backspace enter up down left right actual : n,j. note: down left right don't insert anything
Obviously this is totally unusable. Is there anything I could try? Any information I could provide to aid debugging?
Best Regards Michael
Hello everyone,
I debugged this some further:
In xev on the Mac running x2goclient when pressing "1", "2", "3" I get (see below). In Linux via x2go I get (see even further down).
MAC: state 0x0, keycode 26 (keysym 0x31, 1), same_screen YES, LINUX: state 0x10, keycode 26 (keysym 0x65, e), same_screen YES,
So the keycode is the same (I think this is good), but state is different (I don't know what this tells) and keysym is different/incorrect (I think this is bad and near the root of the problem).
Hopefully someone with more knowledge about X input internals can make something with this information. I am glad to help with further tests/information.
Best Regards Michael

Hi everyone,
I have a similar setup and keys are messed up the same as for Michael.
Any solution yet? The problem seems to be pretty old.

I have this issue as well, if I launch a desktop (KDE, Gnome, LXDE, XFCE4). If I use a single command (such as a terminal) or published apps, the mapping is correct, as far as I can tell.
Hi everyone,
I note this issue happens only with gtk desktops because a .gconf key. If you delete gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard folder then keyboard are well mapped. If you got a pure kde desktop (no gnome pakages installed) you don't have .gonf folder and It also works.
I got now more than 10 servers working this way.
Hope it helps you!

I am sorry that I cannot be of any help concerning X2Go issue with
MacOS X as client OS.
However, please note that on Linux + Windows I set the the session
profile option ,,type'' (Keyboard Model) to ,,auto''. This triggers
the automatic execution of x2gosetkeyboard on the server. On Windows
and Linux automatically sets the same keyboard properties as used with
the client-side X-Server.
Hope that is of any help! Mike

I have tried that to no avail. I came across that step while
looking into this issue, and it also didn't work for others.
on the Mac of a colleagues of mine I have seen setxkbmap (which is
used in x2gosetkeyboard) crash when applying the config of
~/.x2go/<session-name>/keyboard.
Maybe there is a way of testing with the keyboard file, setxkbmap and
x2gosetkeyboard for someone of you who is using a Mac. I am not sure
if that will bring up a solution, but it will be a starting point.
Feel free to meet up on IRC (#x2go on irc.freenode.net) and use our
channel to track this issue down together.
Greets, Mike

I assume this is on the x2go server. It at least appears that way.
Maybe there is a way of testing with the keyboard file, setxkbmap and x2gosetkeyboard for someone of you who is using a Mac. I am not sure if that will bring up a solution, but it will be a starting point.
On my server I seem to have a few stale session directories hanging around plus the currently active session. The current session is published apps. The others are either desktops or xdmcp. In all of the session directories except the published apps, I don't have a keyboard file, instead I have a directory. And in x2gosetkeyboard I came across this:
# if there is a directory at the location of the keyboard file, we consider this as blocking this script if [ -d ${X2GO_CLIENT_KBD_FILE} ]; then $X2GO_LIB_PATH/x2gosyslog "$0" "info" "${X2GO_CLIENT_KBD_FILE} is blocked, not setting keyboard parameters from client-side settings" rm -Rf ${X2GO_CLIENT_KBD_FILE} exit 0 fi
So in those instances it appears nothing is being done with the keymap.
As a side note, I see several calls to x2gosyslog in x2gosetkeyboard. Nothing is being logged from x2gosetkeyboard, however. I assume there is an option I need to enable, but as I just now learned that there is such a command, I haven't looked into enabling it as yet.

Hi everyone,
I have a similar setup and keys are messed up the same as for Michael.
Any solution yet? The problem seems to be pretty old.
I have this issue as well, if I launch a desktop (KDE, Gnome, LXDE, XFCE4). If I use a single command (such as a terminal) or published apps, the mapping is correct, as far as I can tell.

Sorry,
I got no experience with debian and lot of work for try it :-(. Maybe you can try to install kubuntu on virtual machine only for testing this issue.

Its a Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.7 (squeeze) install. It's pretty bare bones, it's our matlab server.
cheers, Beau

umm, something strange you got .gconf folder in a pure-kde desktop...
Which linux flavour are you using? I using different kubuntu versions (from 10.04 to 12.10) and at least with spanish keyboards mac client works (3.99 - no tested 4.x). Currently I got a gnome2 ubuntu (11.04 I think) working too by deleting the folder I said.

Hi Ricardo,
thanks for the tip but it didn't fix the problem for me. It's a KDE install, but there's no .gconf/desktop (only .gconf/apps).
The problem is not present on the server running gnome instead of KDE.
cheers, Beau

Hi everyone,
I note this issue happens only with gtk desktops because a .gconf key. If you delete gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard folder then keyboard are well mapped. If you got a pure kde desktop (no gnome pakages installed) you don't have .gonf folder and It also works.
I got now more than 10 servers working this way.
Hope it helps you!

Hello,
Is X2goclient working on Mac OSX? I read some messages that there are keyboard problems. Not sure they are gone.
Here is such a message, with a link to another message: http://www.mail-archive.com/x2go-user-0fE9KPoRgkgATYTw5x5z8w <at>
public.gmane.org/msg00632.html
When the problem is fixed, is this also the case for the Lenny version of X2go? (I have a customer with Macs who does not want to upgrade because the office will be closed in a few months.)
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.
Hi,
After one day struggling I could make it (thanks to Ricardo Diaz from this list) so maybe this can help some of you:
I installed X2go 3.99 to be found here : http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-macosx/x2goclient/releases/ on Mac OSX 10.6.8
I installed kubuntu on my Ubuntu 14.04 Amazon Ec2 instance (thanks to http://www.enqlu.com/2014/03/how-to-install-kde-4-12-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts.htm...): sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
Then I installed X2Go on the instance following the directions of the X2Go website: sudo apt-get install python-software-common sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/stable sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install x2goserver x2goserver-xsession
However, I had to replace the first line by : sudo apt-get install software-properties-common (thanks to : http://askubuntu.com/questions/422975/e-package-python-software-properties-h...)
Finally I configured a new X2Go session from the Mac, using the login and key I have for this particular instance, and leaving the default settings of the keyboard, which were "us" and "pc105/us" although my Mac keyboard is german...
As a result, I could connect to the instance and the keyboard works, it is german even in the remote desktop.
Good luck!
