I do have a different config to a server which I can reach both via an ssh
jump host
(running ubuntu) or a VPN, I will test this when I get some time.

So it seems that SOMETHING is messing with the SSH connection.
I think we have received previous reports about commercial Firewalls/SSH
Gateways causing problems, but am unable to find that in the archives.

When you log in to that jump host, is there any way to find out what it
is running?  Like, Linux, some BSD, or something commercial/closed
source?  Can you run commands like "uname -a" there?

Well, as long as you're not actually using audio and printing, those
connections will just sit there idle, so that is to be expected.

Oh, so you have the option of using a VPN connection instead of going
through that jump host?
In that case, it would be interesting to see what happens when you set
up a jump host of your own (preferably based on Debian Buster) on your
internal network (i.e. in the same network where your X2Go Server resides).
If you can connect via the VPN to the Jump Host under your control, and
from there to the X2Go Server, and it feels almost as fast or just as
fast as connecting directly to the server (via VPN), then that would be
an indication that your "official" jump host is having issues with our
client.  If, on the other hand, you're seeing the same lag again, it
would mean that something's broken on our end, i.e. in X2GoClient.

Um, sounds like you haven't looked at the X2Go web page yet?
https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php -> the green box labeled "Get X2Go"

Well, X2GoClient allows you to set the DPI for your session (third tab
in the session config), and it also allows you to enable or disable
XINERAMA there.  Maybe that helps?

Re: [X2Go-User] x2go much slower than vnc?

2020-10-01 Thread Johann Petrak
Thanks for this suggestion!
I used the ssh connection (I am doing the equivalent thing for VNC as well)
and with this, it feels less sluggish! Still not quite as smooth as VNC but
it is
now much better and maxing x2go usable in comparison.
I experimented with different speed and compression settings, also tried
to disable audio forwarding and printing but that did not change much.
Of course it is hard to really test this properly since the connection I use
may not always provide the same bandwidth and since there is no way to
accurately measure this, it is just my subjective feeling of what is
faster.

I can live with establishing that ssh proxy connection manually, but I am
still
a bit confused that even now the comparison with VPN is still showing VPN
as being
faster. Have you guys tested this and got consistent results which shows
the opposite?

Once I have more time on my hands I will try this with different machines
and
connections I have plenty where I could try this out.

Completely different question: the way this works, would it in principle be
possible to
also have a windows client? I am almost exclusively using linux but with
vnc I can
use it from a windows machine as well, if needed. At the moment this
actually works
better than on linux in HDPI multi monitor configuration because windows is
able to
seamlessly scale the vnc client window according to the monitor dpi, while
linux
(at least Ubuntu 20.04) still cannot do this properly.

Cheers, j.

Re: [X2Go-User] x2go disconnects on paste (openSUSE Tumbleweed)

I had been working around this bug by using the "heuler" packages in
 instead of my
own, but following an upgrade today to the following versions, the
problem is back:

nx-libs 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler
libXcompshad3 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler

nxproxy 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler
libNX_X11-6 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler
nxagent 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler

To reiterate the troubleshooting steps Ulrich suggested last time,
x2goagent -version reports 3.5.99.24, the problem occurs with both
clipboards (i.e., by using Shift+Ins or Edit->Paste, or when using
middle click), I am not using any clipboard managers on the local or
remote sides, and the problem happens no matter what text I have in the
clipboard.  (I haven't tried copying and pasting images.)

Can anyone help?  Not being able to copy and paste is not fun. :(

Tristan

Ah, so you're using an SSH proxy/jump host.
I wonder if maybe our code for that is broken somehow?
Is that ssh proxy/jump host a Linux machine or some proprietary solution?

Could you test by setting up an SSH connection first, like so:

ssh -p 22 -L:[targethostname]:22 johann@ssh.[somehere.org]

After that connection has been established, please create a new X2Go
session configuration (_don't_ alter the existing one) that connects to
localhost:, without setting an SSH proxy, with XFCE as your DE, and
using your "johann" account, but leave all the other options set to
their default values.  Then try to use that.  Does it change the
speed/responsiveness in any way?

Stefan Baur

Well, for that, it would be nice to know which power-saving settings you
changed. Do you still remember them?
If you only know their French names, that's still better than nothing,
I'm sure we can figure them out somehow.

I agree with Ulrich about the fact that it IS strange that the mouse 
movements are still working, so these mouse inputs are took into 
account, but the clicks are not.


About the power-saving settings, this is simple, in my Xubuntu, I guess 
the control panel is the same as in every *ubuntu variants, at least 
when it's about power-saving settings.

I disabled *every* power-saving setup, making Greta Thunberg cry.
But at least, this server is a VM, doing very little.

To stay serious, I'm running out of idea about how to add more logs, 
read more docs, and detect at which point this issue is appearing.

Well, for that, it would be nice to know which power-saving settings you
changed. Do you still remember them?
If you only know their French names, that's still better than nothing,
I'm sure we can figure them out somehow.

Kind Regards,

This sounds very wrong.

On the other hand, it is hard to debug without further info.

Please provide us with the following:
- Client OS and Version
- Version of X2GoClient (Help/About X2GoClient)
- Session configuration
  (preferably the "sessions" file/registry entries, rather than
  screenshots)
- Server OS and Version
- X2Go package source (your distribution's standard repo vs.
  X2Go's stable repo vs. X2Go's nightly repo)
- Version numbers of all X2Go/NX-related packages
  (on Debian-based distros: dpkg -l | egrep "x2go|nx" )
- Available Bandwidth and type of network connection
  (WiFi, LAN cable; mobile network like UMTS/LTE, ...)

By the way, if you want to basically disable X2Go compression etc.
completely, Connection Speed "LAN" and Compression Method "nopack" are
the options you are looking for.

Kind Regards,
Stefan Baur
