Same here. I just installed the latest x2go client stable release version 4.0.3.0 and the window border disappears along with the minimize, maximize and close buttons when pressing the maximize button. Moving the window has no strage effect, though. Client: Windows 7 32-bit SP1 Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.3.0 Host: Linux Mint 17 64 bit x2goserver: 4.0.1.18-0~949~ubuntu14.04.1 x2goagent: 2:3.5.0.28-0~481~ubuntu14.04.1 nxagent:
