[X2go-dev] Nothing to do with X2go - Question about X11 terminal
Dear Sirs, may I post a question regarding a non-x2go issue? If it is ok, here is my query; I have Linux Mint 8 (Helena / Ubuntu 9.10) installed on my desktop at home. A friend of mine was clearing his office and gave me a piece of Wyse Winterm WT5420XL. I grabbed it with the view of connecting this thin client to my desktop so that my family can access the desktop. I thought it was plug and play but it is not so. I don't know where to begin / how to get started. I looked at http://www.wyse.com but WT5420XL was not even listed in the product range! The firmware is Winterm 5000 series / V1.0.6 (Build 407). The closest is WT5440XL. Anyway, the website has only references of hooking up to Citrix or similar high priced thin client server environments. There is no reference of hooking up to a standard Linux Mint / Ubuntu desktop, for any of their products in their product range. I am connected to the internet via an Aztech ADSL (4-port + Wifi) router-modem. This Aztech router-modem is the DHCP server. I connected the WT5420XL to this router-modem. My desktop is 192.168.1.100, the WT5420XL is 192.168.1.101 In the WT5420XL Terminal Properties / Network I selected Obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. When I click to Terminal Properties / SysInfo I can see that in the TCP/IP Settings the IP Address is 192.168.1.101, Gateway 192.168.1.1 (Aztech router-modem). In /etc/gdm/custom.conf the setting is as follows; # GDM configuration storage [xdmcp] Enable=true DisplaysPerHost=2 [chooser] [security] [debug] [daemon] TimedLoginEnable=false AutomaticLoginEnable=false TimedLogin=johnson AutomaticLogin=johnson TimedLoginDelay=30 In the Winterm Connection Manager / Configure I click on Add / New Connection and select X Connection. In Winterm Connection Manager / Configure / XSetup / Start I select Remote Desktop Mode. In Winterm Connection Manager / Configure / XSetup / Connect I select XDMCP-Query and for XDMCP Server I enter 192.168.1.100. And I give this the Title Linux1. In In the Winterm Connection Manager / Connections I click on Linux1, the screen goes into blackwhite mode than a few seconds later the error box Xconnection error / No respond from XDMCP server. appears. Clicking OK will bring me back to the Winterm Connection Manager screen. I have been searching the web and stumbled across x2go's website. If this is not an appropriate question here, please point me to a relevant forum. thanks. _ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969___ X2go-dev mailing list X2go-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev
[X2go-dev] Firefox Plugin (was Desktop Sharing
I thought this was important enough to open a new thread. On 16 May 2010 16:27, Heinz-M.

Wow. :) It is executed in userspace. All components will be inside the extensions directory. It will be listed as add on and can easily be removed. It'll be available for windows 32 and linux 64 and 32 bit. I don't know at the moment if the macOS version will be possible - maybe as a reduced version (no pulseaudio, no website embedding,...) It would be nice to have Mac OS too, but it's not very important to me. But you're saying PulseAudio would work nicely in Windows as well, so you can use two-way audio for VoIP, etc? The configuration can be delivered via the webserver (as an *.x2go file) and every feature of x2go is supported (bidirectional audio, sshfs, x2goprint,...). Then I could make it so that the user only sees a password prompt, or could I even make it so that as long as they're logged into my website using OpenID, then the session would start automatically? We'll provide a *.js file which can ask the user to install the plugin. As it is at the moment not possible to host the plugin (only add ons)on the mozilla site, we'll make it accessible on our site. Would it also be possible to host the plugin on our own apache sites without too much trouble? I hope this will help - feel free to ask again. Thank you, just one more thing. When will it be available, and can you please make it yesterday? :) This sounds awesome! Thanks again.

Re: [X2go-dev] Nothing to do with X2go - Question about X11 terminal
Hello, I expect you can netboot with the device. But you need a tftp server and your own DHCP server for that. Read about it, X2go offers what you want. GDM/XDMCP is the wrong way. X2go don't uses it. That's for LTSP. With regards, Paul van der Vlis. Johnson Lukose schreef: Dear Sirs, may I post a question regarding a non-x2go issue?
