[X2Go-User] X2Go crash from Mac/MATE to Fedora 25 w NIS user getting x2gostartagent: blocking creation of agent's keyboard file

[Robert Dinse]

      I am not on a Mac, running Ubuntu with the very latest 4.0.0.1 nightly
build x2go client and connecting to Fedora, and only Fedora also with the Mate
desktop, nxagent cores on Fedora on a regular basis.  I do not have this
problem with Centos 6/7, Scientific Linux 6/7, all of which are Redhat 
releases, only with Fedora. Mint, Deb, and Ubuntu are all stable for me now,
the only other OS I have issues with is OpenSuse and that because I can't run
the latest release owing to the inavailability of a modern LibNX there.
