ok...

This is indeed peculiar.  Are you sure, not syntax error is involved  
in x2goagent.options. Note that the mimebox folder is used only by  
Python X2Go, if you use X2Go Client, you can simply ignore its  
non-existent.

For tracking this down, you need to provide some debug output of the  
X2Go Server side.

Also, let us know, if you use X2Go Client or PyHoca-CLI or -GUI on the  
client-side.

If you use PyHoca-*, run it with "--libdebug" on a cmd line and  
provide the debug output.

If you use X2Go Client, you can use the --debug switch, but beware...  
it will reveal user passwords, so don't send that unedited to a public  
mailing list!
