[X2Go-User] Stopping a session from suspending on disconnect

[Martyn Welch]

Hi All,

I've been using x2go on a number of machines that we have remote users 
connect to for a while now. Before using x2go we were using neatx, but 
the development on that seems to have stalled and isn't available 
packaged for newer Linux distributions.

X2go is generally working well as a replacement (thanks guys!), however 
one complaint that I'm getting from users is that x2go suspends sessions 
on disconnect. Some users have graphical tools that they are kicking off 
to run long tasks and want to disconnect, leaving the task to complete 
(for example, over night) without needing the session to be maintained. 
This was the default behaviour in neatx and hence the behaviour that the 
users have come to expect (sessions wouldn't suspend on disconnect). Is 
there any mechanism built into x2go to achieve this?
