Hi guys,

Just to give a bit more informations on my TCE setup : it is not based on the 
live-build scripts because it is not well suited for Ubuntu 16.04 and to be 
honest, I never managed to get a working live build that way so I gave up.
My TCE image is more or less a tweaked ubuntu 16.04 debbotstrapped image with 
x2gothinclient-displaymanager installed (+ a few more things but really, this 
is a pretty basic ubuntu server image + x2gothinclient installed)

By the way, Stefan put the finger on one point : in /usr/sbin/x2gothinclientd, 
I commented the whole randr stuff block (from line 114 to line 175) to make a 
try then restarted the x2gothinclient-displaymanager but while it didn't fix my 
multimonitor support within the X2Go session, it fixed a bad ordering of the 
monitors.
Before that, my monitors were inverted (right was left and left was right), 
commenting this block lead to right ordering of the monitors this time.

Concerning your test Uli, doing "Ctrl+Alt+F" within the X2Go session on the TCE 
did nothing.
I don't know if it was meant to do anything but I did it many times following 
the action by a xrandr output in the console, nothing changed, same values all 
the time (one big screen, not 2)

Walid Moghrabi

Hmmm, I doubt that. Usings NX the client side is not really doing 
anything X wise. It's the nxagent that calls XineramaQueryScreens(). 
It asks the client side X server (the real X server) for its Xinerama 
configuration. We have learned from the previous outputs that Walis 
had sent that the real X server does not have Xinerama configured. 
Therefore the agent does not see any Xinerama configuration. (The only 
possible exception to this would be nxproxy running with LD_PRELOAD of 
libfakexinerama.so which is not happening here.) 

Now, in the Laptop scenario you can see via xrandr that nxagent has 
gotten the Xinerama information somehow. Otherwise it would not have 
been possible to setup two NX outputs/monitors/heads. 

The two logfiles are almost the same except the last line where the in 
the Laptop scenario you can see this line 

Info: Screen [0] resized to geometry [3840x1080] fullscreen [1]. 

This line is printed if nxagent has received and processed a sizing 
event. In the TCE scenario no sizing event was sent to nxagent which - 
if really true - is probably the TCE window manager's fault. 

Walid, can you please try pressing CTRL-ALT-F twice in the TCE 
scenario? What is xrandr showing afterwards? 

Uli
