Thanks for the information. I installed the 4.1.2.4 of the client (on Bodhi Linux) and checked "Start in X2GoKdrive (experimental)". A first test with Google Chrome (Lubuntu server with LXDE) looked quite positive.
Is there an updated description for installing pxe for x2go? I remembered that I could install it directly from the sources or using the package manager, but I can't find it there anymore.
