        $ x2goversion
        x2goserver: 3.1.1.3
        x2goserver-extensions: 3.1.1.3
        x2goserver-xsession: 3.1.1.3

logging in to GNOME does not complete. Executing `/usr/bin/xterm` works.
Also logging in locally works without problems.

The symptom with the incomplete GNOME session is, that the X2Go full
screen window starts up and is replaced by the Debian background image.
Then the GNOME keyring password window pops up. Entering the password
nothing else happens. The mouse pointer can be moved but no panel is
started. `htop` also does not show any activity.

Closing `x2goclient` by pressing Ctrl + q removes the windows, but the
processes are still listed on the server. `x2golistsessions` does not
list anything though.

Could you give a hint on how to debug such an issue?


Thanks,

Paul
