In that case upgrading to the current client would obviously be the

solution of choice, but barring that for some reason he could put "mate-session" in the command window next to the desktop section as a work-around.

Uh, Robert,

he's already running Mate on the server. He can't select the entry "MATE" on the *client*, most likely because he's running an out-of-date version of the client, from before Mate support was added.

You need to install Mate on the Debian server, it does not come pre-installed. Mint, a Debian fork does have a spin (Mint-Mate) with Mate pre-installed but they've crippled so much of the OS that I wouldn't recommend it.

Install Mate on your existing Debian server, it's about a 10 second operation:

Hi,

I have just succesfully installed x2go 4.0.1.19, both server and client are Debian Linux machines. According to the documentation Mate (which I run on server) is fully supported, however the drop-down field Session Type on client has no Mate entry. How can choose it?
