Hi all,

on my working PC there is running Ubuntu 16.04 with MATE Desktop (isn't the same as Ubuntu MATE, right?) and a X2go Server with Desktop Sharing extension. On my home PC with Windows 10 I have installed the X2go Client and inside it configured a session connecting to the Ubuntu host according to https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:usage:desktop-sharing. The connection is successful, but there are some issues:

1. The Ubuntu host's desktop is spread over two 4/3 screens. But The
   Windows PC only has one screen with 1680x1050 Pixels. So the display
   from the Ubuntu host is highly horizontally compressed, so that the
   texts are nearly unreadable. OK, this behaviour is documented, but
   is there a way to get it more readable?
2. If I (to solve the above issue) switch to something other than full
   screen mode in the session settings, the session crashes, when
   started. I have to close and restart the X2go Client. And then with
   settings set back to full screen mode the session runs again. Is
   there a way to avoid the crash without full screen mode?
3. In full screen mode I cannot see any mouse cursor. So hitting any
   user elements inside or on the windows inside the display from the
   Ubuntu host is very difficult, since they are reduced to half the
   width. Is there a way to see a mouse cursor? Or is this due to the
   compressed display?
4. Since mouse using is so difficult, I tried to close the windows from
   the Ubuntu host by pressing <Alt><F4>. But then I get a question
   from X2go to close the session. Is there a way to propagate key
   combinitions like <Alt><F4> to the remote host?

Sincerely
tkansgar
