Do we need to make a changes in the X2Go Client for X2Go Client needs to test the remote x2goagent version and check whether it is << 3.5.99.0 or >= 3.5.99.0. If it is >= 3.5.99.0, the new Xinerama support will be present (once we have released 3.5.99.0, at the moment the code has not been merged). If the new Xinerama code is present, then there is no need for the xinerama.conf server-side writing/updating anymore. > this? I think it should be sufficient to make changes in x2goruncommand. I think that too, see X2GoBTS #873 [1]. > Should user still have possibility to turn Xinerama off? I can still This is a good question. I don't think that we should include the xinerama.conf part in nxagent anymore, but a way for switching off the Xinerama extension should be possible, indeed. The current plan is to make the cmdline options +xinerama / -xinerama (or -extension Xinerama) functional in nxagent. With all previous versions of nxagent, this did not have any effect, so far. Ulrich is working on that. > imagine the use case when user have an x2goagent window in the middle of > two physical monitors but want to see agent window as one display.
