Hello,
Can somebody tell me what's the status of desktop sharing?
Is it not possible at the moment, or is it read-only?
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.

It's as ugly as I can imagine an application being and has lots of broken parts but, as long as you avoid those, it is VERY fast and allows one to share desktop 0 - akin to KRFB but much faster and more reliable - John

desktop sharing has been implemented and I use it for customer care sometimes.
You can share a same user's desktop from two client sessions in rw
mode. You can get read-only access to another user's desktop. However,
this limitation is coded into one of the x2go scripts. Thus, I guess,
that it should be possible to get rw-desktop sharing across account
borders.

Nice to hear! But ehm, how do I use it?

Is it possible to get access to a running normal desktop (so not a x2go session)?
