Hi all

New here and trying to move away from NoMachine 3.

I have a Sun Workstation with nVidia Quadro card running OpenSuse 11 and 
NoMachine 3 (free) and using the latest player and this all works fine.  But I 
now need to move to a virtual server (no graphics hardware) and while NoMachine 
works OK there are issues with colours on session restart and performance.

I want to use X2Go but there are issues especially with resuming sessions.

My client is a Win 7 (32 bit) laptop that can have different screen setups
1)On own with a wide small screen
2)At "home" using laptop screen and a 1280x1024 external  - monitor wanted is 
number 2
3)At "work" using a 1280x1024 and a second wide screen monitor - monitor wanted 
in number 1

If present I want the X session to go full screen on the 1280x1024, else full 
screen on the laptop.  The NoMachine client does this very well so at "home" 
and "work" the session always goes to the 1280x1024 fullscreen without 
intervention from me.
Using X2Go I can start the session first time OK and I can set it to the 
1280x1024 monitor.  I haven't been to the "work" location to see if it will 
work properly there.  But on attempting to resume the client opens a small 
window and then VcXsrv crashes.

I tried the pyhoca-gui and this does resume OK but the full screen fills both 
monitors and I can't find a way to limit to the 1280x1024.  And the mouse wheel 
doesn't switch between virtual screens.

X2Go session when working looks much better than NoMachines but the resume 
needs to work.  I sometimes work remotely and if the VPN link drops I need to 
be able to resume the session when I reconnect.  NoMachine does this job really 
well.  I don't need this to be automatic but I need the function.
