x2gokdrive(1) General Commands Manual x2gokdrive(1)
NAME
x2gokdrive - X server providing a graphical backend for X2Go Server
SYNOPSIS
x2gokdrive [:display] [option ...]
DESCRIPTION
x2gokdrive is a kdrive server that provides a graphical backend for
X2Go desktop sessions, supporting modern extensions like composite,
damage and randr.
Unlike nxagent (aka x2goagent) which is an X proxy, i.e. limited to the
capabilities of the host X server, x2gokdrive is a real X server which
uses the host X server window as "framebuffer" via fast SHM XImages.
OPTIONS
The server accepts all the standard options of Xserver(1).
Furthermore, it understands the nxagent-way of providing session op-
tions via the $DISPLAY environment variable. Currently, only a subset
of nxagent's nx/nx display options is supported. Non-supported nx/nx
options get ignored.
SIGNALS
Sending the SIGHUP signal to x2gokdrive switches the X server from run-
ning to suspend state and back.
Sending the SIGTERM signal to x2gokdrive shuts down the X server (and
ends all applications attached to its $DISPLAY).
CAVEATS
• The '-host-cursor' cursor is static in its appearance.
• The build gets a warning about 'nanosleep'. I think the various '-D'
build flags are causing this. I haven't figured as yet how to work
round it. It doesn't appear to break anything however.
