  As of version 3.5.0.x, nxagent is forked from the X.org 6.9 codebase (from 2005.) Therefore, there are 3 reasons why certain modern "3d-ish" desktops are incompatible with nxagent, and threfore X2Go.
  
    * The desktop environment requires the X11 extension "Xcomposite", which nxagent 3.5.0.x and X.org 6.9 do not support.
    * The desktop environment requires a newer version of the X11 extension "GLX" (OpenGL) than nxagent 3.5.0.x and X.org 6.9 provide (version 1.2).
+   * The
desktop environment requires a newer version of the X11 extension "XRANDR" than nxagent 3.5.0.x provides (version 1.2).
    * The desktop environment checks for a specific physical graphics driver, but nxagent doesn't use physical graphics adapters/drivers.
  
  Ultimately, addressing issues #1 and #2 requires a lot of work. Solutions are discussed [[wiki:development:new-feature-brainstorming#nx-libs|here.]]
  
  It is recommended to switch to using a compatible desktop environment if your desktop environment is listed below as incompatible.
  
  === Always Compatible and no Workarounds Required ===
-   - LXDE
+   - LXDE (not LXQt)
    - XFCE
    - MATE
  
  <note tip>MATE (the fork of GNOME2) is not included with certain distros, such as Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 14.04. You can however install it from http://mate-desktop.org/ on those 2 versions of Ubuntu and on other distros.</note>

  == Cinnamon ==
    - Cinnamon 1.4 (Linux Mint 13 "Maya"): Compatible, you
must specify the Session Type as: Custom Desktop: gnome-session-cinnamon
    - Cinnamon 2.2 (Linux Mint 17 "Qiana"): Not compatible. Cinnamon reverts to "fallback mode", which is not as good as regular "cinnamon" nor "cinnamon2d". If you wish try try it in anyway, specify the Session Type as: Custom Desktop: cinnamon-session-cinnamon2d
