[X2Go-User] Debugging tips?

[Tom Harris]

Thanks, Mike.

I got some time to look more closely at this recently.   I turned on the
highest debugging level, and it logged more, but I didn't find any smoking
guns.

After some more digging, I found that the user account in question was
using the shell "/bin/sh".   If I changed that shell to "/bin/bash" the
session works fine.     I saw an old bug report of a problem with using
tcsh, but nothing for sh.   This is on an Ubuntu Linux 12.04 system.

Thanks,
Tom
