Need help with x2go

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Configure-Administer
1

Hello,

I’m trying to find a good solution for remote GUI to SLES 12 and I decided to try x2go. I installed it from the repositories listed here:

https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:repositories:suse

I used the x2go repositories from packages.x2go.org towards the bottom of the page.

They installed fine but when I try and connect to it from a Windows 7 desktop with the x2go client, it attempts to start the gnome sessions and then fails. I see this in the system log:

Sep 11 09:00:07 server /usr/bin/x2gosetkeyboard[3271]: Setting X keyboard according to /home/mweisber/.x2go/C-mweisber-50-1505134800_stDGNOME_dp32/k

This is a SLES 12 SP2 VM on VMware I’m trying to connect to.

Any ideas on what might be wrong?

Thanks.

x2go doesn’t seem to work well with recent versions of gnome https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:de-compat
Might be worth to try xfce or some other compatible desktop environmens.
