I just made a commit to x2goserver on both the release/4.0.1.x branch
(which will become 4.0.1.20) and the master branch (which will become
4.1.0.0) to do that:
release/4.0.1.x:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commit;h=c8cee419bca5126323ab7d8a86f22254a7564c8b
master: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commit;h=9ec47ce0dfe7a9d4895dd0a6c8f2412603ff3b60

BTW, how does Q4OS install X2Go exactly? I downloaded the Q4OS 1.2.2
x64 iso. I don't see any x2goserver package, but I do see
x2go-keyring_2011.12.07+wheezy~baikal~12~build1_all.deb . If Q4OS is
accessing the baikal apt repo under http://packages.x2go.org/debian/ ,
then that is a problem because baikal provides x2goserver 4.0.0.x,
which does not support trinity.
