I have 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.


Is it possible too to give extra options to nxagent with x2go?

(I want an open source solution, I use FreeNX with Nomachine NXclient,
and this NXclient is not open source).

With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.
