Furthermore you can define several speed profiles (coming from modem up to LAN) and the desktop environment you want to start remotely. Each entry consists of your username, hostname, IP, and port for SSH connection. You can now create several sessions, which then appear on the right side and can be selected by a mouse click.

Note: Make sure the client computer can open a SSH session to the server by checking from the client that ssh is successful. Run X2Go Client on the client computer, the one that wants to access the server:įor the list of available options, see x2goclient(1). Now all you need to do is start the system rvice. This location however is not created by default and can be created by creating a symlink to /usr/share/applications/.Īlternatively instead of creating a symlink one could also create a folder and link only the desired applications instead. This is controlled by the files in /etc/x2go/applications/. X2Go can publish the installed applications in a menu to the client. Run the following command on the server to initialize the SQLite database (which is required in order for the x2go server to work): One can check that lsmod | grep fuse returns a match, otherwise load the fuse kernel module. In order for the server to be able to access files on the client computer, the fuse module is needed. Follow the instructions at OpenSSH#X11 forwarding and OpenSSH#Daemon management. X2Go uses Secure Shell in order to work, so you need to configure sshd daemon to allow X11 forwarding. Server side Configure Secure Shell daemon x2goclient AUR - X2Go client based on Qt5.They can be installed with the following packages: Making those work requires further hacks. In addition, X2Go does not support GLX 1.4 which is required for many graphical applications, including Firefox. Compatibility is especially important if you want to connect to an existing Xorg session.

You can check X2Go desktop environment compatibility first. Note: X2Go is not compatible with all desktop environments.
