[X2go-user] Keyboard layouts problem on Ubuntu 10.10

Hello list,
I'm researching about renewing existing Freenx-based infrastructure and I'm 
playing with x2go as alternative. Using Lenny's packages on ubuntu 10.10 there 
is a problem with keyboard layout indicator.  Switching between layouts 
actually works but indicator on the panel shows an error icon, not country 
letters for the current layout. When I try to 'restore defaults' in the kbd-
layout's settings, it throws some kind of generic error dialog with Xorg 
version and what to attach as debug info, etc. Tested with freenx and neatx, 
layout switching does not work at all, but there is no error indicated. With 
locally started X session everything is OK.
Digging in, I've found that x2goagent (like nxagent from freenx-team) are 
build against xorg 6.9.0 and the current X in ubuntu is 7.5. Is it possible 
this older version to cause this problems and what about compiling whith newer 
xorg? What else can I do for debug? Can anyone confirm this problem?

Thanks.
