What desktop shell are you using? Unity? Or GNOME classic? Please try  
with GNOME classic, first. Make sure you have the Info Tray enabled  
(the applet area that network manager, padevchooser,  
gnome-power-manager etc. dock to). PyHoca-GUI should appear there as  
another icon.

With Unity then, you should make sure to have this same applet/info  
tray available...

This line is normal!!!! It just warns you, that there is still a  
programme component missing in PyHoca-GUI... Nothing to worry about.  
If you do a

  $ cd /usr/bin
  $ ./pyhoca-gui

in a shell, then the option menu item ,,Client Settings'' is not  
greyed out anymore, you are warned that pyhoca-gui runs in development  
mode etc. This way of running pyhoca-gui is not recommended (as it  
will raise some more python exceptions that are normally silent ->  
needed by myself for debugging...).

Look for the info tray! Once you have a solution, sign up for the X2go  
wiki and place it at an appropriate place, e.g.:
http://wiki.x2go.org/pyhoca-gui

Thanks,
Mike
