Why doesn't the X2Go Client have XFCE? Isn't there a way to set up XFCE?
Why doesn't PyHoca work? I launch a remote host, it asks for signon and that is approved, but then nothing. Manual launch, and nothing.

You should use "custom" in the session profile in the client and then give the command to your WM start command. For xfce I think "/usr/ bin/startxfce4" would be right, but you must check if this is true on your system.

From what you, in a rather short description, explain here it sounds to me that it works. You need to click the pyhoca icon in the systray and choose to do the actual connection, or session start if you like, because the way pyhoca works your authenticated at the point you describe. The next step is to connect using that icon in the systray. When you understand it, it's actually useful and powerful to use.
By the way, I think there are some documentation on how to use pyhoca in the wiki.

-- Well, no. I have the session set up in PyHoca, but for some reason it's not invoking my SSH key so I have to manually log in. Maybe I have to specify the key in session settings. But when I click on that logged-in session, and hit Start New Desktop Session.... nothing. Zip. I can do that a hundred times, and it ignores me. So I set in session settings for it to automatically launch a session on login, and it's not starting there either. PyHoca is just not working.

Yes, you have to explicitly specify a private key in the session
settings. During the last days I have implemented ,,auto-discovery''
of SSH private keys and SSH agent authentication (X2GoClient already
has this feature and also a session switch for that).
I have also added forwarding of SSH agent authentication requests
(same feature as provided by ,,ssh -A''.

The session auto-starting (and also profile auto-conecting) has to be
enabled by some command line switches:
pyhoca-gui --auto-connect --start-on-connect --resume-on-connect
If you use those options on the cmdline, the autoconnect and autostart
features in the session profile will become functional.
(hmmm... maybe I should enable those by default???)
BTW: Simply stating that PyHoca-GUI (or some other X2Go component)
does not work is not really nice (as it actually works quite well
here)... There maybe issues in the X2Go code and we are willing to
solve them for everyone, but also please consider a lack of knowledge
on your side for being the possible reason of your experienced issues.
AND: You do not have to use X2Go. If you use it, and it does not work
as expected, please help improving it with qualified and detailed
issue reports rather than sending some not-quite-understandable and
frustrated comment to this list (like the one this thread started with
:-( ). Such comments are not really motivating (and I tend to ignore
them, so thanks for Terje who picked up this thread in the first place).
Greets, Mike

I tried setting to the private ecdsa key on the client, but it says invalid private key.

OK that works, thanks. I modified the KDE menu entry to change the default command.

Python Paramiko (the SSH framework I use in Python X2Go does not
understand ECDSA keys, yet. Only RSA and DSA. Paramiko upstream has
been unmaintained for a while, but a guy from Frisco now has become
the official upstream owner of the Paramiko code and development
currently goes straight towards 1.8.0. So, please be patient and wait
a little more for ECDSA.

it is already available for Debian systems through our nightly builds repos: deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian {squeeze|wheezy|sid} main heuler

Sorry, my question was not clear. I use the windows version, so the question was, when a new windows release will be available?

I have not tested the feature on Windows yet. I am not even sure if
the corresponding feature in Python Paramiko will work on Windows
(with the PuTTY tool pageant.exe).

Hi guys,
I've been playing with X2go for a while now, and have a Thin Client Environment(TCE) that I PXE boot from, or copy to USB and boot via syslinux (after I've changed the initramfs.conf and regenerated the initrd so it boots locally rather than via nfs).
But Although X2go works well, its still not fast enough for watching videos. My solution was to put mplayer on the TCE and pipe video to it at the moment with netcat, but Ill probably move to a multicast solution when I get all of the other issues sorted.
So on the client I need to run the command
netcat $SERVER $PORT | mplayer -display 0:0 -
now whilst I can open up a console terminal, log into the x2goclient user and run the command, or write something that does the same it would be nice to run a command from within the x2go-session that does just that. Ive tried using x2goruncommand but it seems to kill of my currently running session.
Is there a supported way to run a command locally, from withing an established x2go session, or do I have to code something up myself
Thanks
Paul Daniels
