[X2Go-User] processes sleep on suspend

[Neal Becker]

Summary:
1. I did need to terminate/restart.  Now I see sleep=0 in options
2. I could see processes are sleeping by ssh into machine: when x2go was
active I had a bunch
of processes running 100%, then when suspended they are not active.
3. Remaining mystery is why I have other older installations that never did
this, but this new machine sleeps by default.
    The older installs, also Fedora, have all been kept up-to-date.
