Hi Olaf,

you might want to consider switching to our new X2Go-TCE (also works via
PXE/TFTP, if desired, but doesn't need NFS - instead it uses HTTP(S) or
(T)FTP to load the required files into a ramdisk on the TC).

In my opinion, it is a lot more flexible and you could try to run a
local desktop on the TC, with the Skype client or a Browser (there's a
Skype4Web beta that supports video calls, as I've been told) as part of
the image.  Remote applications would be pulled in via Published
Application Mode instead of delivering a full desktop.

This is an area where we could also use some volunteer manpower or
people forking over some cash for paid-for development tasks, but at
least the groundwork is there - so even if you don't have the skills to
get it set up yourself, it should be way cheaper than adding USB support
to X2Go.

Kind Regards,
Stefan Baur
