OK, I had to install MATE, and was able to get it working. None of the others worked, including KDE.

Thanks for the tip, much appreciated.

At this point, I would suggest adding to your documentation that for Ubuntu 15.04 people use http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download and follow the steps for Ubuntu 14.04 with "Ubuntu MATE"

My next step is to see if I can get this working on an EC2 instance.

Cheers, Eric

For now you need to use a non-compositing Desktop such as Mate or KDE,
compositing desktops don't presently work with X2Go.  My understanding is
that work is currently being done to remedy this.

Subject: [X2Go-User] First Time Woes

Installed x2go server on Ubuntu 15.04 (running under VMWare Workstation on Windows 8.1)

Installed x2go client on Windows 8.1

I am now able to connect to Ubuntu, but all I get is a blank x2go window. My profile has the Unity desktop manager selected, but nothing happens and I have to force the connection closed.

When I do a 'ps aux | grep x2go" I can see lots of stuff running, but Unity is not running in my x2go window. I can see the following running

x2gocleansessions
x2goruncommand
x2goagent

So far my experience is, like every other X/Windows I have ever used, it is a royal pain in the .... to get things configured and working.

Where do I go from here?
