Maybe related to "Alt-Tab" hotkey, through not sure. 3) Minor graphics glitches when desktop composition is not used, but really minor, nothing severe. So I think it can be labeled as "beta" maybe as for now. -- З повагою, Михайло ___ x2go-dev mailing list x2go-dev@lists.x2go.org https://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-dev

[X2Go-Dev] X2Go Kdrive, current status? Ready for official release?
Hi Alex, I wonder when would be a good point to get X2Go Kdrive to the majority of X2Go users. I will plan some X2Go work for July and this would be a good occasion to get a new X2Go Server version out containing the X2Go Kdrive wrapper code. What's the maturity status of X2Go Kdrive? Is it releasable? If not, we should get an X2Go server release out anyway and make sure it behaves well, if no X2Go Kdrive Xserver ist installed server-side. What do people think about this?

Is it releasable? Last time I checked, it was not. At least not "for production use" outside the parameters it was coded for (i.e. the distribution and desktop environment Alex' customers have). The desktop environment I tested with (I think it was MATE) was very confused about this connection type; it mistook me for a local user and I got all kind of popups asking for permissions for this and that (mostly network related, I think) - and it allowed me to hit the shut down button, which did work. So any non-privileged user could shut down the server - like they could if they were in fact physically present (where the option to allow a non-privileged user to shut down the machine does make sense, think laptops and desktop workstations). Obviously, this is not something we should ship. I think it really needs more testing with a wider user base (i.e. more distributions, more desktop environments), so if we do ship it in a stable release, the checkbox in the client should remain tagged "experimental", and the server-side package needs to display a warning during install that BAD THINGS may happen. -Stefan -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ x2go-dev mailing list x2go-dev@lists.x2go.org https://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-dev
