Hello,
I googled it, but didn't came up with a solution (probably due to wrong searchterms). I am connecting to a x2go server just fine in fullscreen mode. When I minimize the session (using the top right hot corner) and go back, I can't open the window after the second time I did that (minimize & reopen the window). The session still seems to be working & valid, just I can't see the window.
I am using x2go-stable from ubuntu ppa on Ubuntu-13.10 with standard unity (no tweaks). Did someone have a similar problem and solved it?
Best regards, Markus

I had a similar issue and debugged it successfully. The issue occurs because the x2gostartagent script and the x2goresume-session script become out-of-sync with respect to options file when fullscreen is used, i.e., the x2goresume-session expects the geometry field to be in position 13. The fact that the geometry field is missing causes x2goresume-session to misread the options file and subsequently corrupt it. To resume a fullscreen session, you may edit the options file to correct the corruption. To prevent the issue in new sessions, I edited the x2gostartagent script to coerce it to include an empty geometry field. Unfortunately, the post service required splitting the diff lines but I think you should still be able follow it.
258c258 < option_geometry="${X2GO_GEOMETRY}"
option_geometry="geometry=${X2GO_GEOMETRY}," 262c262 < X2GO_HOST="nx/nx,link=${X2GO_LINK},pack=${X2GO_PACK},limit=0, root=${SESSION_DIR},cache=8M,images=32M,type=${X2GO_TYPE},id=${SESSION_NAME}, cookie=$X2GO_COOKIE,errors=${SESSION_LOG},kbtype=null/null, geometry=${option_geometry},resize=${X2GO_RESIZE}, fullscreen=${X2GO_FULLSCREEN},accept=${REMOTE},listen=${GR_PORT}, client=linux,menu=0"
X2GO_HOST="nx/nx,link=${X2GO_LINK},pack=${X2GO_PACK},limit=0, root=${SESSION_DIR},cache=8M,images=32M,type=${X2GO_TYPE},id=${SESSION_NAME}, cookie=$X2GO_COOKIE,errors=${SESSION_LOG},kbtype=null/null, ${option_geometry}resize=${X2GO_RESIZE},fullscreen=${X2GO_FULLSCREEN}, accept=${REMOTE},listen=${GR_PORT},client=linux,menu=0" 264c264 < X2GO_HOST="nx/nx,link=${X2GO_LINK},pack=${X2GO_PACK},limit=0, root=${SESSION_DIR},cache=8M,images=32M,type=${X2GO_TYPE},id=${SESSION_NAME}, cookie=$X2GO_COOKIE,errors=${SESSION_LOG},kbtype=${X2GO_KBD_TYPE}, geometry=${option_geometry},resize=${X2GO_RESIZE}, fullscreen=${X2GO_FULLSCREEN},accept=${REMOTE},listen=${GR_PORT}, client=linux,menu=0"
X2GO_HOST="nx/nx,link=${X2GO_LINK},pack=${X2GO_PACK},limit=0, root=${SESSION_DIR},cache=8M,images=32M,type=${X2GO_TYPE},id=${SESSION_NAME}, cookie=$X2GO_COOKIE,errors=${SESSION_LOG},kbtype=${X2GO_KBD_TYPE}, ${option_geometry}resize=${X2GO_RESIZE},fullscreen=${X2GO_FULLSCREEN}, accept=${REMOTE},listen=${GR_PORT},client=linux,menu=0"
I have reworked my original solution such that I only modify the x2goresume-session so as to prevent the options corruption by detecting whether the geometry was specified and, if not, setting an appropriate default value and reapplying the subsequent positional assignments:
134,140d133
< XGSTR=echo $GSTR | sed s/geometry=.*//
< if [ -n "$XGSTR" ]; then
< GSTR="geometry="
< RSTR=echo "$OPTIONS" | awk -F, {'print $13'}
< FSTR=echo "$OPTIONS" | awk -F, {'print $14'}
< LISTSTR=echo "$OPTIONS" | awk -F, {'print $16'}
< fi

I am currently trying to understand what your issue is (I am one of
the devs of X2Go). Before I do that in depth please give me feedback
on my question below...
I am using x2go-stable from ubuntu ppa on Ubuntu-13.10 with standard unity (no tweaks). Did someone have a similar problem and solved it?
Are you saying you successfully launch Unity in X2Go with Ubuntu 13.10
as X2Go Server???? You would be the first person I heard of. Please
confirm!!!
Mike

I second that request for confirmation. This would be a really interesting bit of information. I might have a use case for Unity + X2Go if the two actually play along well now (kinda gave up on experimenting with it, as I became more Debian-focused around 2011).

Hello Mike,
no - I am not using unity. Whenever I log in to one of my machines using x2go, I start an xfce-session.
A somewhat 3d desktop is not exacty what I would stream over network ;)

Ah... ok. You wrote something about ,, I am using x2go-stable from
ubuntu ppa on Ubuntu-13.10 with standard unity''. That confused me.
Ok, then. I will be dealing with desktop resolution and resizing etc.
more later. I will get back to you then.
