Hi Brian, I was under the impression that at present, they only support Debian and its derivatives, but maybe that has changed. Let's see if we can get an Arctica developer (see CC) to chime in and comment on the feasibility of testing X2Go together with the Arctica NX-lib nightlies on RHEL6. :-) -Stefan Am 16.01.2017 um 17:25 schrieb Town, Brian A. (GSFC-428.0)[Embedded Flight Systems, Inc]: > I forgot to mention by the looks of your link is testing currently only working on debian based systems? We’re using Rhel6 systems with x2goserver installed on them. I did notice in the git repo for Artica nxlibs there is a section for building out a rpm. Little out of my depth here though so I might be not looking at the correct thing. > > >> On Jan 9, 2017, at 11:58 AM, Town, Brian A.
