Dear Mike,with my test setup I simply launched an X2Go session and clicked here and there in a MATE desktop session. At some points (they don't seem to be predictable), the X2Go session suspends (i.e. nxproxy dies) with earlier reported error messages.Ah, easy: I will just need to find out what is a MATE, and click at the exact "here and there" spots...
A MATE session is a session running the MATE desktop environment [1]. It is available in Debian jessie. MATE is GNOME desktop environment (version 2) continued. It is _the_ recommended desktop environment for remote desktop usage on Linux at the moment. I presumed this as prevalent knowledge, sorry for my erroneous presumption. But you can use any other desktop environment on the X2Go Server except GNOMEv3, Cinnamon (>= 1.4), Unity (if using Ubuntu >> 12.04) for testing this, I assume.
On the client side, in X2Go Client you can set up the connection (basically parameters you would give to an SSH command) and the "Session Type". Here you can select from various desktop envs, amongst others: "MATE".
OK, I will now review the nxproxy code, look for places where it misses sanity checks and blindly follows data, and fix so as to avoid crashes. Then maybe you can test.
Fair enough, but if you are interested in remote X11, you maybe really want to play with X2Go...
