Would it make sense to use x2go libraries than the Xpra? #17

Open paimpozhil opened 10 years ago

X2go provides more features like sound and seem to be constantly /more actively developed

From latest windows clients, I am not able to connect anyway and the Docker desktop sessions are exiting/failing as soon as i hit connect from my windows client.

I can try to make this system use x2go however I am not very strong with x11 concepts so I wanted some opinion before i start.

Ok, I have tried this and it seems to work 99% :+1:

it works with sound and everything, pretty cool.

It is not possible to use ubuntu software center yet but I will figure that out later on.

Hi @paimpozhil, that's awesome! I tried to connect using the OS X X2go client, but unfortunately it crashes every time I try to establish a session. I used your Dockerfile to create the docker container. We don't need to run the x2go server in the container ?

root@9a5a76f38777:~# ps ax
  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
    1 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd -D
 1327 ?        Rs     0:00 sshd: root@pts/0
 1328 pts/0    Ss     0:00 -bash
 2829 pts/0    R+     0:00 ps ax

Please try to login as a root first then as dockerx user , it should work.

You need to have x2go server libraries but do not need to start anything.. it works a bit like Ansible .

@paimpozhil, I'm able to login in with root using ssh but everytime I try to login using dockerx using the x2go client it crashes. Which session type are you using?

paimpozhil commented 10 years ago

ok make sure to start the XFCE on boot with the x2go.. I forgot to mention it.. it is not obvious..

I guess thats why you have trouble

Hi @paimpozhil, I have been playing with x2go and I think makes sense to move from xpra to x2go! It seems to be more stable! Do you want to become a maintainer of this repo and we can merge our efforts here?

paimpozhil commented 9 years ago

@rogaha Happy to do that.

rogaha commented 9 years ago

Ok, cool! I'll submit the PR with maintainers file today! You will be first official maintainer along with me! :)

paimpozhil commented 9 years ago

Here I have 3 versions of X2go servers dockerized going , Did you try any of them ?
