[X2go-dev] Fonts to big or to small

Hello,

I still have the problem that my fonts are sometimes to big or to small
in the X2go session. Even with the newest client and server.

I found this article about this problem:
http://www.nomachine.com/ar/view.php?ar_id=AR04C00198

And this seems to be true. In the x2go session I see 75x75 dots per
inch, and in my normal session I see 96x96 dots per inch.
I used "xdpyinfo | grep resolution" to get this info.

In the article they have a link to a solution, they say to use a
variable:  DEFAULT_X_DPI = "96", but this is for the Nomachine software,
not for X2go.


I had the same problem in FreeNX. There I found a solution.
In the configfile I found this:
--------
# Extra options sent to the different nx agents. See !M documentation
# for examples of useful parameters.
AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X="-nolisten tcp"
--------
I've changed this to:
AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X="-nolisten tcp -dpi 96"
And now my DPI-porblems are gone in FreeNX.
But this does not help for X2go.


Is it possible to give agent-options for X2go?

Or do I need to hack /usr/bin/x2gostartagent?


With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.
