On the other hand there is also a disadvantage: x2goagent currently does not
support some (nowadays) important X extensions like XInputExtension 2 or
Composite. Some modern Desktop Environments require them and can therefor not
work on x2goagent.
===== Advantages of X2Go KDrive =====
==== 1. X2Go KDrive based on the recent X.Org code ====
- Unlike the NX-libraries, which are based on obsolete X.Org-6, X2Go KDrive is
based on the recent X.Org-7. It brings multiply advantages:
- * We can run without any limitations any modern Desktops and applications.
+ Unlike the x2goagent, which is based on a rather old version of the X.Org
sample server (somewhere between 7.0/7.1), X2Go KDrive is based on the recent
X.Org-7, bringing multiple advantages:
+ * We can run any modern Desktops and applications without any limitations
* We don't need to support obsolete X code, which makes the development and
support much easier.
+ * We profit of bugfixes that might be missing in x2goagent
+
==== 2. X2Go KDrive is a real X-Server ====
If x2goagent is just a proxy between X-Servers on the server and client
sides, X2Go KDrive is a standalone X-Server. It brings a lot of advantages over
NX-protocol:
* We don't need an X-Server on the client side. This is a main advantage.
If we want to use NX-Libraries, we always need a fully functional X-Server on
client, like XQuartz on Mac or VCXsrv on Windows. X-applications are not native
to this OS and are always the source of many troubles. Another OS, like Android
or IOS, doesn't have any usable X-Server software at all. Using X2Go KDrive we
can avoid this issue and build native clients for any platform and even develop
HTML5 client.
* The X2Go KDrive architecture is better suited for the modern application
like Firefox or Chromium. This applications are developed to run on different
platforms and using cross-platform graphic libraries like Skia. Modern browsers
and some other applications working much better with X2Go KDrive than with NX.
