[X2Go-User] Different display ratio at server and client

[Zoltan Tibenszky]

Hi Uli,

Unfortunately it has not solved my problem. Autograb and Ctrl-Alt-Shift 
is working. The screen gets noisy (similar to static TV noise from the 
analog broadcast era) after Ctrl-Alt-R for a second or so, but nothing 
is changed. I am using X2Go client 4.1.2.2 (Qt 5.12.8).

PS: I was looking in this part of the linked message:

If you startup the x2co connection you get a window with your desktop in 
a scaled version which makes it unusable. Now there are two possibilies: 
a) if you want to keep it in windowed mode press ctrl-alt-g (autograb) 
to ensure the keystrokes are not intercepted by your local desktop 
environment. b) switch to fullscreen mode with ctrl-alt-shift-f 3. 
switch to viewport mode with ctl-alt-r 4a) use ctrl-alt-<arrows> to 
scroll around in small portions 4b) use ctrl-alt-shoft-<arrows> to move 
around in big steps

So far the X2Go client has shrunk the display horizontally, which makes it hard to work with it. I am looking for a solution to overcome this issue. Currently both the server and the client runs Xubuntu 20.04 LTS.
