That sounds indeed weird. 17bit color depth is a really uncommon  
value. In PyHoca-GUI I try to keep it simple: resume only sessions  
that support the same color depth as the local desktop. This can be  
fine-tuned still, but this implementation cleared up many problems I  
had before.

@Alex: I get the local color depth from win32api.GetSystemMetrics(2).  
This 17bit value sounds really odd to me. How does x2goclient choose  
its color depth???

@Daniel: You are great! You found the bug. What is your desktop's  
,,real'' color depth (right click on desktop, properties, settings of  
gcard)? I guess it is something different from 17. Maybe you could be  
more playful with local color depth (gcard settings)?

Greets,
Mike
