Dear all,

I've recently started experiencing a problem when running single applications over X2Go. Quite often small windows such as tooltips, pull-down menus, and context menus get positioned far, far away from where they are supposed to be. For example, I'm currently writing this message in Claws Mail; when I activate the "Edit" pull-down menu, the menu doesn't appear under the menu bar but rather way over on my second screen. (I use a dual-monitor setup.)

The problem happens with a lot of different applications, but not always consistently. For instance, sometimes I might hover my pointer over a widget that causes a tooltip to display halfway across the screen, and a minute or two later I'll do the same thing but this time the tooltip will display right over the widget like it's supposed to.

Is this a bug in X2Go or in my window manager? I'm running the X2Go Server 4.1.0.4 on openSUSE Tumbleweed, and connecting from X2Go Client 4.1.1.1 on openSUSE Leap 15.0, using KDE Plasma 5.12.6. (I can't upgrade the connecting system at the moment because the x2goclient package seems to have disappeared from the repository at <http://packages.x2go.org/opensuse/15.0/main/x86_64/>.)

Regards, Tristan
