[X2Go-User] Make an x2go connexion without the gui

[Alain Aupeix]

Hi,
I need a complet x2go no-gui connexion

I have tried using x2go --thinclient.
I'm able to connect using profiles, but I notice that each time I call
x2go, I open a new instance, what I don't want,
and I'm not able for now to recall the already opened instance.

I have tried pyhoca-cli, but I'm now not able to connect to a machine.

Here are the parameters I used :

pyhoca-cli -P christian at felicite-X751LN --libdebug

I suppose that some are missing, but I can't imagine which they are.
Here is the log :

discovery or agent authentication with server

After, pyhoca-cli is waiting, and I must kill the terminal to stop the
failed connexion
Can somebody help me to have a consistent command line to establish a
connexion ?

Here are the parameters which works using profile:

Session name : christian at felicite-W751LN
host : 192.168.1.17
x Try auto-login with default ssh-key
session-type = 'Connect to local session' or XFCE (for example)
Connection speed : ISDN or LAN
Configure keyboard Model = pc105 layout = fr

Does pyhoca-cli need that x2goclient gui is already opened (in trayicon)
I have also a few questions about what debug returns:

pyhoca-cli[29900] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG:     kbtype: pc105/fr
pyhoca-cli[29900] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG:     kblayout: us

What is kblayout ?

pyhoca-cli[29900] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG:     client_encoding: ISO8859-1
pyhoca-cli[29900] (x2gosession-pylib) DEBUG:     server_encoding: UTF-8

I'm under Linux, and  my servers too. Why ISO8859-1 for server encoding ?

After having success to connect with pyhoca-cli, I'll probably want to
improve connections with printer,
for example, but for now I just need to be able to connect.

Thanks
A+
