Re: [X2Go-User] Best Linux Distro for x2go server sessions as of April 2018?

Running X2Go with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS + MATE (1.12 in the base repo, tested 1.16 
thanks to the MATE DEV ppa and working great too).

I'm pretty happy with this setup.

I also tried Ubuntu 16.04 + XFCE (4.12 from base repo) and working great too.

Objet: [X2Go-User] Best Linux Distro for x2go server sessions as of April 2018? 


Guys, 

So what's the best linux distro to run x2go on these days, in terms of 
the server, the system you connect to? Which would people recommend? 

RHEL 7.x is out, as are probably a bunch of the newer Gnome 3 
desktops. Does anything running MATE work well? Running Debian 9.3 
with lxde seems to work pretty well, using client 4.1.1.1 to connect. 

But at my $WORK, where we're mostly RHEL/CentOS based, it looks like 
sticking with CentOS 6.9 is the best solution currently. Which kinda 
stinks. Does Fedora work better or at least just as well when running 
the Mate desktop? 

John

 I've found MxLinux to be excellent in this regard.  I have gnome, mate,
kde, lxde, xcfe, openbox, and icewm ALL working via x2go on this platform.

I can't comment on Fedora, but I know that with Ubuntu being Gnome 3-based
by default too, XFCE seems to work a bit better than other stripped down
DEs; that is, when other parts of the distro assume Gnome (or are only
tested on Gnome), fewer things seem to break under XFCE. Having said that,
I've used it for so long as a server DE my opinion on this could be out of
date.

I use OpenSUSE Leap and it works great with KDE or XFCE.
