[X2go-dev] Disappearing text - problem and possible solution(?)

Hi,

I had a problem with text (of certain colours only) suddenly disappearing from windows,
and not being visible again until I disconnected and reconnected. This problem has been
reported on the FreeNX mailing list, but I didn't see any mention of it here yet. I
found that setting the image compression method to png (20M, I think) instead of
jpeg, fixed this problem for me (so far). But it might be just a coincidence that I
stopped having this problem - on the FreeNX list, some people report that the issue is
very intermittent and hard to pin down.

I am using a self-built X2Go Server with the latest NX libraries (also self-built) on
the server, and on the client I'm using the standard Ubuntu/Debian packages (on
Maverick). Incidentally, the client machine is actually a Virtualbox VM, although I'm
not sure this is relevant.

Regards,
