One can force terminate the session with x2goterminate-session to clear it out and then get a clean login again, but I don't really want my users having to go though this. So my question is really about the MATE issue which I would prefer to use. Anyone have any clues as to what might be going on or a fix? I'm not sure if it's Mate or X2Go but when I first installed both X2Go and Mate on CentOS7 and tested, all was good. Now it's broken for me also but somewhat differently. When I logout it just hangs with the background image that I used on my desktop. So I use control-alt-M to and then click on the white seal or whatever that animal is, and then when I get the start-up screen back, I select terminate to terminate the session. Now I tried the same thing on Scientific Linux 7, which like Centos7 is derived from Enterprise Linux 7, and it still works correctly, so whatever is broken isn't X2Go or Mate, but rather something specific to CentOS 7. ___ x2go-user mailing list x2go-user@lists.x2go.org http://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-user

Robert, I think this is an issue that you should raise over on X2Go-Dev, or file a bug for it. Even if CentOS is at fault, it's more likely to catch the attention of the developers over there, and reporting it as a bug makes sure it doesn't get lost as time goes on. - -Stefan - -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVwlqCAAoJEG7d9BjNvlEZTvUH/1hT914BEV7IHSiqcDXyAMZ1 oD2RzXzjF567bdXWTxki6pTuHH8JCuJyMbE1UvjvCCO5gXvtVi/lfk/c5FAO5LVV BzJirsnKkp7MV5tEbfbNdSH860XdtHIynvDFwMNHgmLJGTstLA8rrcqQosgPA9dy 6hLLY/RRGz2DDgYBzdo1tF/OoJxw8E/YL6StM6LyUBqkIXvWk2jijN8b7shX9WOY c3fq4QxrgJ84Qcv+7hX80DSb0YrT8SILZwxaDSNNTzCKk1bR8j4N/Qob5Rd/l/R+ 2shgn55p8XXjfUHE4SaQpv7yQbj2LIH1zkWR2+gRZFhNLGwkPtpTgaQDiZbtB2k= =XMkf -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ x2go-user mailing list x2go-user@lists.x2go.org http://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-user

Re: [X2Go-User] x2go on RHEL7/CentOS7
Doing Ctrl-Alt-T to terminate in the windows client will make the windows close but doesn't clean up the session on the server. Reconnecting still just connects you to a empty background screen. Doing a logout on the MATE desktop locally works just fine. I am testing on pretty freshly installed and updated server and on a new user where I first wiped out all settings by removing all dot files/directories This is what is still running on the server as the user after trying to logout over X2Go applet.py───{applet.py} at-spi-bus-laun─┬─dbus-daemon └─3*[{at-spi-bus-laun}] at-spi2-registr───{at-spi2-registr} dbus-daemon dbus-launch dconf-service───2*[{dconf-service}] goa-daemon───3*[{goa-daemon}] goa-identity-se───2*[{goa-identity-se}] gvfs-afc-volume───2*[{gvfs-afc-volume}] gvfs-goa-volume───{gvfs-goa-volume} gvfs-gphoto2-vo───{gvfs-gphoto2-vo} gvfs-mtp-volume───{gvfs-mtp-volume} gvfs-udisks2-vo───2*[{gvfs-udisks2-vo}] gvfsd───{gvfsd} gvfsd-fuse───4*[{gvfsd-fuse}] gvfsd-metadata───{gvfsd-metadata} gvfsd-trash───3*[{gvfsd-trash}] mate-screensave───3*[{mate-screensave}] mate-volume-con───{mate-volume-con} nm-applet───2*[{nm-applet}] polkit-mate-aut───{polkit-mate-aut} pulseaudio───{pulseaudio} x2goagent x2goruncommand -- Paul Raines (http://help.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu) On Wed, 5 Aug 2015 2:35pm, Robert Dinse wrote: On Wed, 5 Aug 2015, Paul Raines wrote: We have been using x2go fairly successful on CentOS6 machines now for a while.
