Which desktop for Ubuntu 12.04

This was meant to go to the list. Shouldn't the reply-to point to the
list instead of the OP?

We recently switched from Unity-2d to LXDE, server is ubuntu 12.04 and
client Windows 7. We only use a very limited set of x2gos features. I
have only noticed that on session start up, the LXDEs task bar is not
completely visible until I resize the x2go window once.

x2go client deadlocks if server reboots

The x2go-client seems to deadlock if I do a reboot/shutdown of the server.

Some time after I initiated the reboot of the server the client asks
if I want to terminate the session (because the servers does not
respond), which I answer with yes. Nothing happens.
When I try to close the session window, nothing happens.
When I try to close the session using from the x2go client window by
clicking the button to close the session, the client window itself
starts to hang and I have to kill it.

Which desktop for Ubuntu 12.04

Hi,

I use the 4.x release of x2go on both client and server.

The server is ubuntu 12.04, client is SuSE.

If I use unity as desktop, at the top there are about 60px missing. The ubuntu dash symbol
at the top is only half visible.

If I choose ubuntu-2d I get several small images, instead of fullscreen, which I selected.
It looks like this: http://thomas-guettler.de/tbz/u1204-x2go.png

Now I use LXDE and this works good. Except one thing: the ssh-agent does not get executed
during login. I start keychain in .bashrc.

Which desktop do you use with ubuntu 12.04?

   Thomas

Windows 8

I'm thinking about upgrading my home computer to Windows 8 from Windows 7, but I really need to use the x2go windows client to connect to my work Ubuntu machine.  Does the x2go client work on Windows 8?  Thanks.

issue: GTX don't work with V.4.0.0.1

Hello,

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and a GTX 680 (Driverversion: 304.48)
The old x2go (3.) worked with different 304.xx versions.
Since I updated to 4.0.0.1 OpenGL/GLX don't work in a remote session any
more.
e.g.:

Locally it works! Any ideas?
Thanks

smart

Hi all,

Any chance of using (pki) smartcard in combination with x2go?
On the sites I found references towards GPG-cards, but I need to use ordinary smartcards with standard key & certificates.

Note that I cannot use something like USB-forwarding, as the reader + card are also needed by local applications.

Kind regards, Hans.

desktop sharing

Hi!

I am constantly running into the same problem, while trying to share a
x2go-desktop. I connect to the x2go with user A. Afterwards I try to
connect using the phy-client with user B trying to connect to the
desktop of user A.
On the desktop of user A a window pops up, which asks me to confirm
sharing my desktop with user B. After I have accepted, the phy-client on
user B says: "...sharing has been denied by the remote user"

How can I update to x2godesktopsharing version 1.6 ? Apt-get upgrade
doesn't find any updates although it seems as if I am using version 1.5 ?

critical issue: wrong display size

Hello,

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04. Locally I use Unity and a Gnome remote session.
Since V. 4.0.0.1 I have this problem:
In the properties of the remote session I have set a custom display
size, but the remote session has always 1,920×1,080 (This is also the
resolution of my display).
My local unity environment needs some pixel for the taskbar in the top.
Because of this there is not anymore enough place for the remote
session, the taskbar in the bottom of Gnome is truncated.
If I use the Fullscreen mode, the taskbars in the top and in the bottom
are missing. I can see only the symbols (files and folders) on my
desktop.

I deleted the old x2go folders/profiles from my home, but it doesn't
help.

Thanks
Michael

Connecting Message

Dear List,

I would like to achieve the following with x2go:

when a user connects using either x2goclient or python x2go, a message will be displayed before he is logged in: "Welcome to terminal services, you will be connected in the next XXX seconds.".

What needs to be done to achieve this? Shall I do something at the clients level? or putting scripts into  x2goserver-run-extensions?

Thanks a lot for your tips.

Cheers
Joshua

Diskless Booting

Hi,

I try to set up an environment where the user can choose between:

  - diskless booting an operating system (no x2go)

  - booting a small operating system and use x2go.

I looked at the TCE documentation:

   http://www.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:components:tce

Is this maintained and used in production? Unfortunately the set up
explained there allows only one boot image. But I need other images. At
least one with Ubuntu 12.04.

For the non-x2go images I use this path:

/tftpboot/os/IMAGE-NAME

Is it possible to use scripts like x2gothinclientmanagement with a different
path?

Since the other images use ubuntu, it would be nice if the x2go image would use
ubuntu, too. What do you use?

A different way would be this: Don't use different boot-images, but use one
boot image which gives you a login screen where you can choose between working
local and working with x2go.

Regards,
   Thomas Güttler
