Hello, 

I just install the x2go TCE on squeeze, everything is working like a charm 
after some minor modifications : 

- Delete pcspkr from blacklist because we hear it click if not.
- Link the /dev/shm on TCE server with the x2go /etc/network/run 
to avoid an error message (ifupdown failed) at startup

It still remain one problem wich is quite important because it's all about sound.

I can't get any sound from my soundcard and it's hard to know why. 
Do you have any idea ?

Thanks.
