I don't a have a windows installation at hand where I could test that, but in principle it works like this: So what you do is this: - run vcxsrv with the option -ac. This will disable access control. - run xset -display <vcxsrv's hostname>:<vcxsrv's display number> Maybe you have to disable the windows firewall for that. > > If you fontpath inside the session if only "built-ins" none of the > > mentioned dirs is existing on your server.

You can pass the correct font paths by adding the appropriate -fp option to /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options. Can you please send us the correct list (derived from the defaults I posted earlier) for your distribution? We then can add this to source code (although I think we should revise that code to determine the system's default patch automatically during build. > > Now the question: where's you special font located? > > Currently on both the Linux machine and a copy on Windows. I am interested in the path. BTW: I doubt you need the fonts on the Windows side, so please re-test with the fonts removed from windows. > > What does xset q report if you just open a simple session with an xterm > > and nothing else? > > I don't know what you mean by "a simple session". Does not matter now, as we have found the root cause: unusual font paths on your system. A simple session is one that does not start a full desktop environment like xfce but only a single xterm. You can achieve that by selection "Application" under "Session Type" and specifying a full path to the xterm in the right input field.
