Some additional information:

the plugin itself is under development. It's a combination of x2goclient 
and and a dynamically linked library (.so / .dll), but what you see and 
can use is mainly the classic "x2goclient" as we know it. The library is 
needed to start x2goclient. We are discussing to use "qtbrowserplugin" 
instead, which would replace the library and will offer support for 
other browsers (like ie).
You can have a look inside the code of the library here:

To build an operational library, you'll have to download and use a 
mozilla firefox source tree.

Alex & Heinz
