I Use for that last try x2goagent_3.5.0.2-0~x2go1_amd64.deb from git.
Obviously that work for less than 2 hours. Additionally I had some
resume problem, which seems to be a problem of the server package.

That sounds like the number of "x2goagent_3.5.0.2-0" and
"nxagent-3.5.0-2" are only incidentally matching.

However thanks for that hint. By the way, I try now the "mixed" szenario:
- x2goagent 3.4.0-3-1 from http://x2go.obviously-nice.de/deb/
- x2goserver 3.0.99.5-0~x2go-bpo1+lenny~main~83~build1 from
http://packages.x2go.org/debian/

If that works as an fall back, I will keep you updated.

Peter
