[X2go-user] x2go thinclient - custom xorg.conf

Hi all,

I installed recently x2go-one and the thinclient-netboot-environment. So far 
all works fine. (Sound and printing not yet tested).

At the same network we have also a ltsp installation but I think to replace 
ist step by step with x2go mainly because of spee issues.

One of the main questions I have ist if it's possible to offer custom 
xorg.conf to the clients which boot via pxe.

Some of our monitors are not correctly recognized by the x-server an need a 
special xorg.conf.

In the ltsp changeroot there is the possibility to offer something like  
xorg.conf.00:00:00:00:00 with mac-address as a suffix.

Is there any similar possibility on the x2go thinclient system?

If not yet: It should be possible to make some adjustments in the startscript. 
I would try to make a hack in the /usr/sbin/x2gothinclientd to ask for 
mac-address to choose a custom Xorg.conf.

But maybe there is already a solution? I think it would make sense to change 
the x2gothinclientd script in this way.

Best regards
Stefan
