Hi Mike,

I've tested both XMing (internal in 3.01-18) and vcxsrv 1.10.1.1,
neither work. While testing 3.01-18 I've disabled firewalls, antivirus
and anything else that could cause problems. No luck.

This is what it normally looks like:

At best I get a grey X window with the session ID in the window title,
but normally nothing at all shows up. Sometimes x2goclient.exe crashes
immediatley after connecting.

3.01-13 works out of the box (with working cut and paste to/from X window).

I use Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1 with Swedish language settings. The server
is Debian Squeeze with x2goserver 3.0.99-5+squeeze~main~31~build1.

Cheers,
