[X2Go-User] Problem with ALT GR key wth linux client

[Stefan Günther]

Hello,

I'm running the following setup:

X2Go Server 4.1.0.3-5 on Ubuntu 20.04 with XFCE
X2Go Client 4.1.2.2-0 on Ubuntu 18.0.4
X2Go Client 4.1.2.2 on Windows 10

On the Linux client I have removed the directories ~/x2go and ~/.x2goclient. I now connect to the server and open a terminal windows. Pressing  ALTGR + 7 gives me a "7", STRG+ALT+7 gives me a "7", too. Pressing the up arrow key, doesn't display the last command, instead I get the error, that xfce-screenshooter couldn't be started.

I found some older posting about this problem and followed the suggestions:

setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwertz)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+de(nodeadkeys)+inet(pc105)+group(switch)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"	};
};


stefan at x2go:~$ setxkbmap de
stefan at x2go:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwertz)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+de+inet(pc105)+group(switch)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"	};
};

But even after setting the keymap to "de" I get "7" instead of "{".

The strange thing is, that if I use the windows x2go client, everything is fine. The bracket is displayed and the arrow key is working as expected.

Does anyone has an idea or suggestion to this?

Thanks for any help,

Stefan
