[X2go-dev] VirtualBox or KVM and x2go from Mac

[Neil W. Hunt]

I don't, but I use VirtualBox quite a bit and when I get some time, I will try to reproduce the issue there. Wish I could help more :(

Do you have a similar solution for VirtualBox? We've switched to
VirtualBox for the moment, but I have the same issues here :/
