    * 1150-openssh-readsshprivatekeys or 1150-x2go-readsshprivatekeys would probably be the proper names
    * Maybe it would be better to split the process into 2 scripts, one that fetches the keys from local storage/USB media, and one that patches the sessions file
    * 2800-x2go-thinclientconfig would also have to be changed so it uses the keyfile(s) when in broker mode

  To see what a user is doing once a connection has been established, connect to the
X2GoServer yourself and use X2Go's built-in session shadowing (Install package ''x2godesktopsharing'' on the server, if you haven't done so already) - this will deliver way better performance.

+ FIXME User Support: Determining the ThinClient's IP and/or MAC via phone

+ When you are unable to connect to the ThinClient, you might want to ascertain its MAC and/or IP address(es), to make sure you and the user you are trying to support are talking about the same machine.  Tell the user to press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[F1] and to read out

+ To return to the login screen, have the user press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[F7] ([Alt]+[F7] should work, too), or, once you've successfully logged in over the network, issue the ''chvt 7'' command.
