Hi devs,
today I had a chat with Alex about x2goclient, the versioning, the
next major version (Baikal) of x2goclient, etc.
o we have bumped the version to 3.99.0.0 in Git o the next major stable release will be 4.0.0.0 (x2goclient/Baikal) o Oleksandr will build a Windows x2goclient with that same version number
Packages for Debian are building currently, they will enter the
nightly builds repos as well as the ,,main'' repos.
Please go ahead and test these new versions, please. Report issues to
the x2go-dev mailing list, so that we get as many issues fixed before
calling the thing 4.0.0.0.
Greets, Mike

Hi Mike,
Great news! Will these Windows binaries also exist for Windows 7/64-bits? Or should we keep running on 3.01-13 ?
Cheers, Kristof

there never was a 64-bit build, only Win32. And yes, it should be
possible to install the new version on Win7/64bit.

Hi, I just installed it after removing the previous one, I also installed the VcXsrv (v1.10.3.1). All this on Windows 7 64-bit (English). Server is a Debian (Linux Mint) with x2goserver 3.0.1-5.
I can launch the x2go client and to be sure I recreated the connection to my server but I don't get any display. Here's the output of the details screen in the x2go client:
NXPROXY - Version 3.4.0
Copyright (C) 2001, 2007 NoMachine.
See http://www.nomachine.com/ for more information.
Info: Proxy running in client mode with pid '4652'.
Session: Starting session at 'Thu Jul 21 14:07:49 2011'.
Info: Connecting to remote host 'localhost:30004'.
Info: Connection to remote proxy 'localhost:30004' established.
Am I doing something wrong ? If I can do anyhting to assist in case troubleshooting is needed, let me know.. (irc / mailing list)
cheers

Your x2goserver seems to be rather old... New versions of x2goclient
should work with old x2goservers, but for debugging, I would like you
to install latest x2goserver packages (also libxcomp*, x2goagent, etc.).
Infos on package download location is here: http://wiki.x2go.org/adding_the_x2go_repository_debian

That part above looks ok...
Try the server-side package upgrade first, if everything still fails
afterwards, let us know.

Hi Mike,

I can confirm that 3.0.99 on W7 x64 won't connect. I have server version 3.0.99.5 installed.
Only 3.01-13 works on W7 x64. If I interpreted the changelogs correctly, 13 is the last version that didn't use libssh, I'm guessing that the problem in later versions are related to libssh.
Cheers, Daniel

I've finally had success connecting using a client newer than 3.01-13 on W7 x64.
I installed a clean W7 x64 in a virtual machine and 3.99.0.0 worked. After that I uninstalled x2goclient and pyhoca-gui from my primary W7 x64 client, manually cleaned all traces of x2go/ssh/vcxsrv from the registry and user profile, deinstalled Symantec Endpoint Protection, disabled Windows Firewall and installed 3.99.0.0 ... and it works!
Not sure what's the root cause of the problems, I'm a little suspicious of Symantec Endpoint Protection. Will do some more testing to see if I can figure it out.

Yep, installed SEP 11.0.6 MP3 again and 3.99.0.0 failed to connect, even with SEP completely disabled. No message, nothing logged. For some reason SEP allows 3.01-13 to connect but no later versions. Uninstalling SEP fixes the problem with 3.99.0.0, haven't tried any other versions.
Windows Firewall isn't a problem (if you allow all x2go components).

hi,
I'm having an issue with perl-suid (makes me unable to get to the newer x2server version), will try resolve it and report back if I succeed. (perl-suid has been removed since perl v5.12 :( )
The following packages have unmet dependencies: x2goserver : Depends: perl-suid but it is not installable E: Broken packages
cheers Kristof.

Your are installing from Debian sid repos. For this to work you
currently have to use this Deb URL (nightly builds):
deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian squeeze heuler

OK, thanks Mike, that works.
Still the same issue with client 3.99.0.0 and server 3.0.99.5-0~x2go3+squeeze~heuler~20110719~129~build1. I do get some more info, see below. But in the end there's no session displayed.

Hi Kristof,
ok... I am cross-posting your feedback to x2go-dev...
Thanks! We'll have a look at the new clients...

So far, I've only tested with the included vcxsrv.
I've been heavily testing the Windows client from XP for several hours now and there are a number of issues - some Windows specific, some not. I'm running against two different X2Go servers - one running 3.0.1-5 and the other 3.99 I'll enumerate them here and then spawn a separate email for each one.
- Very serious issues with image packing
- Alt tab not working as expected in full screen
- Multiple X2goclient instances fail
- General sluggishness
- Task bar icon does not disappear on close
- Miscellaneous - not necessarily X2Go
- Clean up of old installations
Oops! I forgot one and the original was sent twice for some reason! I'll resend the original with the added item to keep it all in once place - John
