I have recently come across "twelveto11"

https://sourceforge.net/p/twelveto11/code/HEAD/tree/README

which seems to attempt running Wayland applications on an X server. I
would guess that could work on X2go, too. (I don't have Wayland anywhere
so I couldn't try)

Re: [X2Go-User] Mounting USB drives in remote computer

2024-04-10 Thread Hanno Foest
Can't help you in detail, but I'm quite sure your issue is with
policykit (polkit) treating remote users differently from local ones.
A quick web search got me the following:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1256669/configuring-polkit-to-allow-complete-control-remotely

but I can't be sure this solution is correct since I don't run your
flavour of Linux.

HTH,

Re: [X2Go-User] Libreoffice starts extremely slowly only in x2go session

2023-06-16 Thread Hanno Foest
I recently had the problem that starting Libreoffice Writer freezes the
x2go session window, also on reconnect, so the only thing which helps
to recover the session was to log in via ssh and kill LO. Found no
workaround yet, and on the list no one chimed in. But at least the
startup times are normal :P

I would suggest to strace -f LibreOffice, maybe you can find out which
system call or whatever takes so long.

Re: [X2Go-User] socket bind error with Windows client

2023-03-15 Thread Hanno Foest
Hi,

I didn't manage to gather any useful (apparently related) info with
x2goclient.exe --debug, but when running

NETSTAT.EXE -ban | Select-String -patt "57030" -context 2,3

in powershell with admin rights repeatedly during connection gives me

[x2goclient.exe]

briefly before the error appears. (Note: It's been again 57030 and not
something random.) After rebooting Windows, I was able to connect to my
x2go session again. Running the above command again gives me

[X2Go-User] socket bind error with Windows client

2023-03-08 Thread Hanno Foest
Hello,

randomly (about one in three attempts) when I try to connect to one of
my x2go sessions, it doesn't work and I'm getting the error

Can't create SSH tunnel for the start of the X2GO Session (NX):
socket bind error localhost:57030

(translated from German, hope it's correct).

netstat doesn't seem to list the port as being in use. So far I didn't
find any other way to recover the situation other than rebooting, which
is a bit of a hassle sometimes.

Client is "X2GoClient V. 4.1.2.2 (Qt - 4.8.6)"

Curiously, the second x2go session I use to seems to connect without
issues all the time.

In case it matters: The machine is connected using OpnnVPN. Turning off
antivirus didn't make a difference.

Any ideas?

Re: [X2Go-User] Libreoffice Writer breaks x2go session

2023-02-13 Thread Hanno Foest
Slightly related to this issue:

Since I installed 4.1.0.4-0x2go1.2~git20220808.1949+11.heuler.1 to see
if it would bring some improvement to the libreoffice situation (it
didn't) I was experiencing reconnection issues. The log said

Info: Waiting for connection from 'localhost' on socket 'tcp:*:49562'

(different port numbers for different sessions), then timeout, display
failure - didn't save the logs unfortunately.

Creating a new session was no problem, just reconnecting to it. Going
back to x2goserver 4.1.0.3-5 fixed the reconnection problem.

This issue has cost me a lot of time, especially since I have a
virtually identical machine with the heuler binary running in a
different network location and it works fine. Unfortunately I don't
really understand the reconnection process so it's hard to debug it.

[X2Go-User] strange display issue with SDL apps

2023-02-10 Thread Hanno Foest
Hi,

I was running sz81, a ZX81 emulator using SDL, remotely with an IRC
client and noticed, that while it worked nicely if started in a session
using an x2go Linux client, after disconnecting the session and
reconnecting using a Windows client, the application window came up
garbled with display artifacts.

What's more, if I disconnect and reconnect the session using a Linux
client, it somehow manages to blank my complete local display as soon as
the SDL application window gets focus. This confused the hell out of me,
and I first suspected a crash, until I figured out what was going on.
It's really an SDL issue, I verified by running parallax-4.tar.gz from
http://olofson.net/examples.html which displayed the same behaviour.

I would guess x2go has some kind of SDL passthrough mode which is
somewhat buggy and doesn't work with windows. Is that correct, or what
is the expected behaviour?

But that's where I notice a difference. If I disconnect the x2go
session cleanly, either using the "stop" button or just closing the
window, things work as you described. If I don't close the session
cleanly, e.g. by just sending the laptop to sleep, or by kill -9 on the
x2go client, the remote session stops as if I didn't configure sleep=0.

I'm not entirely sure if it's always the case, but quite often at least,
and certainly today when I tested again. And I don't remember that
behaviour from years ago, but that's probably just me.

[X2Go-User] x2go disconnect timeout

2023-02-06 Thread Hanno Foest
Hello,

I'm running a few always connected GUI applications on a server in an
x2go session. This usually works fine, especially when I manually
disconnect x2goclient after work (I have set X2GO_NXOPTIONS="sleep=0" in
x2goagent.options).

But when the x2go connection fails unexpectedly, e.g. because of network
issues, or because I suspend my laptop without disconnecting x2go first,
my GUI applications get stalled until they disconnect most of the time.
After 2 minutes or somesuch they reconnect and keep running. I guess
this is because the x2go server session waits for the x2go client to
come back, and only disconnects (and keeps running in the disconnected
state) after some timeout.

I would like to know if this timeout can be configured somewhere. I
would prefer to have to reconnect my client more often, instead of
having the mentioned GUI applications reconnect.

Thanks in advance.

My previous (working) version was from May, so I wanted to revert, but
unfortunately the packet repo

http://packages.x2go.org/debian/pool/heuler/x/x2goserver/

older versions available for such a case...

I found out that things started to work again if I set keyboard
configuration to automatic, before it was set to pc105, layout de. This
needs to be addressed, I guess.

After setting the keyboard to automatic, the backspace key stopped
working, among other keymap issues (only appearing after resume). This
can be fixed with

-   keyboard_type='null\/null'

In general, that step should not be necessary. The /tmp dir itself is
not updated, just the mounted filesystem is. You only see the /tmp dir
itself when you unmount the file system again. For example:

[root@ ~]# stat /mnt

Re: [X2Go-User] x2go server on debian: readonly partition

2022-05-01 Thread Hanno Foest
Well, x2gocleansessions does indeed create some files on /tmp every two
seconds and deletes them again, but creating and deleting files on /tmp
is hardly something x2go specific, and it should not cause file system
errors either.

Taking a guess, I would say your root partition is on some kind of flash
memory, which doesn't like the constant writes, and eventually bugs out.
Console messages should have something, or you could use remote syslog
if console is not accessible for some reason.

To mitigate the issue, I would suggest using tmpfs for /tmp - RAM does
not wear out. But your root media seems to already have issues, which
will cause problems sooner or later in a different context.

Did you check if /tmp/ is really read-only when that happens? If it is,
you need to find out why. I don't know how x2go could make it ro, so
there's likey a different reason for it.

FWIW, I was able to build up to mesa-21.3.8.tar.xz (which is pretty

I can relate. If I had not been able to build libGL, it would have

Re: [X2Go-User] font path not set correctly

2022-02-19 Thread Hanno Foest
I got it partially figured out... in my old x2go instance, there's a
symlink from /usr/share/nx/fonts to /usr/share/fonts/X11, and creating
it in the new install made the font path change from

/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,built-ins

to

/usr/share/nx/fonts/misc/,/usr/share/nx/fonts/Type1/,/usr/share/nx/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/share/nx/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/nx/fonts/Type1,/usr/share/nx/fonts/75dpi,/usr/share/nx/fonts/100dpi,built-ins

which then contains the fonts xterm complained about missing.

Still, this is undocumented, and I'm not sure why the symlink was
missing, so I'll open a bug as you suggested.

[X2Go-User] font path not set correctly

2022-02-18 Thread Hanno Foest
Hi,

after setting up a new remote x2go instance (using Devuan) I noticed
that xterm complained

xterm: cannot load font
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1"

I traced the issue to the font path (displayed with xset q) missing
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc, so I added it with

xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc

and things started behaving normally again. - But: Where is the font path
in x2go actually being set? I'm not sure if some autoconfiguration
failed, or if it's a compile time issue, or something else. - For the
same issue there's a bug report in Ubuntu, see

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/x2goserver/+bug/1891825

and especially the remark about the man page at the end.

Re: [X2Go-User] Move from freenode?

2021-05-20 Thread Hanno Foest
FWIW, I'd be supporting a move. I'm already on Libera and keeping the
channel open.

(This should have been sent earlier, but I used the wrong email
address...)

[X2Go-User] Cursor key mappings sometimes break on reconnect

2019-12-10 Thread Hanno Foest
Hello,

I currently have the problem that my long-running x2go session works
just fine, but after several weeks the cursor key mappings are suddenly
garbled after re-connecting the session, and stay that way.  The only
way to "fix" the issue seems to be restarting it.

Right now only cursor down works, and does the same thing as the Enter
key. Cursor up, left and right are without function. I had a similar
issue for at least 2 years before, where the Del key stopped working.
That scenario seems to have been replaced by the one with the cursor
keys for the last few months. (I'm just noticing that there seem to be
even  more issues - the Del key is now Print, and AltGr beeps. Usually I
restart the session very soon, because it's not good to work with a
misbehaving keyboard, so I didn't notice these before.)

I *think* the problems start when re-connecting the session takes a few
seconds longer than usually, but it's hard to tell because the issue
happens rarely and infrequently.

remote:
Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
x2goserver 4.1.0.3-0~1708~ubuntu16.04.1

local:
Devuan GNU/Linux 2.1 (ascii)
x2goclient 4.1.2.1-0x2go1+git20180626.1801+8.main.1

Redefining the keyboard settings with setxkbmap does not help. Output
from xmodmap -pk with or without the issue present doesn't show a
difference. xev -even keyboard has some interesting output though, see

https://pastebin.com/kKEgeSDB

And indeed, my AltGr key now works as cursor left, as far my current
x2go session is concerned.

I would be happy if someone had an idea how to reset my key mappings
without restarting the session. But if I could help debugging the issue
for good, that would be nice, too :)
