Subject: x2goclient: No keyboard input at login in broker-mode on OSX

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.0.0.4
Severity: grave

The newly released version of x2goclient for Mac OSX is unusable when used
in broker-mode.
When started with --broker-url a dialog pops up handling authentication
against the broker. After this is done, you choose a session. This next
authentication dialog is the problem. The cursor is placed in the
login-field and is blinking, but nothing appears when keys are pressed on
the keyboard. The system bell (*dunk*) is chimed upon each keystroke.
Clicking in the field does not change anything. You can place focus in the
password field, but no input happens here either.

I have also tried setting the broker in noauth mode, so auth is only needed
when connecting to the actual terminal servers. The problem is also present
here. No initial auth dialog is displayed (of course), but when a session
is chosen, the auth dialog will not accept any input.

Greetings,

I just wanted to report that we're seeing this identical behavior, but in a slightly different way on our Mac OS X clients that are *not* running in broker mode.

When we run the client, everything works well and we are able to start a session. However, if we either terminate or suspend the session, we are no longer able to enter a password in the dialog. The cursor is blinking in the password field, but no characters can be entered. All other functionality seems to work, however - other sessions can be clicked on the right side and settings of sessions can be edited. The workaround is to quit and restart the client.

I had a look at the x2goclient code, and this is a bit out of my league, but something that looked suspicious to me on first glance was passForm->setEnabled() in onmainwindow.cpp. I wonder if this is getting set to false when then session runs and then not getting set back to true when the session ends or is suspended. Just a thought...

Please let me know if you need any other info to help track this down.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
This app has not been updated since March and this is a fairly glaring bug (especially since sessions seem to auto-terminate fairly regularly, so re-logging is necessary, but painful when you have to keep restarting the client) that is probably fairly simple to fix. Can you please provide an update regarding whether or not this will be released sometime soon?

It look like the new version is in the Ubuntu repositories, but the Mac dmg is still on the previous version. Any idea when this will be updated so I can test that this functionality has been fixed?

I can confirm this still exists with 4.0.1.1. A build of 4.0.1.1 is
currently available from http://files.neverpanic.de/x2goclient/ and will
soon be available from the official website (it's the same binary, so
downloading from this URL won't do any harm).

This is very disappointing. It's been 6 months since this report was filed (and since the last release) and even though it was acknowledged in July, it still was not fixed in the current version. Will we be stuck with this bug for another six months?

Filing and acknowledging bugs does not fix them. You get X2Go for free,
thus I can see no justification for you to complain. Instead of whining
you could give something back to those people who spent many hours
working on X2Go for free(!). Either by providing a patch your self or by
putting out a bounty.

Yes, yes, we know. The software is free. Every time anyone expresses concern with something like the, this is the argument that comes forth, which suddenly makes our concerns invalid if we don't suddenly know how to fix the problem ourselves in a language we're not familiar with. I am grateful for the software, but as a developer myself, I find that programmers are way too sensitive to criticism. Sometimes users get upset when glaring issues are put on the back burner while other, much less severe bugs are added to new releases. It's going to happen and it's a critical part of the feedback and development cycle. Never is "why don't you fix it yourself?" a proper response.

Were getting off topic, but normally people spend their free time with
things that satisfy them. Satisfaction can be gained by money, but for a
lot of OSS it's because its something that person developing it uses: If
some minor issue is bugging me, I'll spend time fixing it. If there is I
major issue, but it doesn't bug me, there is no satisfaction in fixing
it, unless I get satisfaction by people telling me that I did a great
job. People just complaining do not help at all.
Besides: Mac is definitely no major target platform. AFAIK neverpanic is
currently working on it, and he already put quite some time into getting
it to work the way it does. Thus it was no "why don't you fix it
yourself?", but a "Fix it yourself, pay for it being fixed or stop
complaining." - After all the broker is an Enterprise feature, thus
spending a little money would do no bad.....

No, he didn't. He did put some time into getting the build automated,
but that's about it.

Morty, apparently you didn't read the bug. It does not only affect
broker mode, but also re-connecting after the first connection in
standard x2goclient.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I'm honestly not even sure what all this talk of broker mode even is. I've never configured such a thing. I'm not an enterprise user. I've just used the standard interface and every time I exit a session, the program no longer responds to keyboard input when I try to re-connect. I contributed to this bug report because it seems to me to be the same issue. That means it affects every user, not just those using broker mode. To me, that seems like something worth fixing without having to coerce your individual, non-enterprise users to pay a bounty for properly functioning interface. That's why it's in a bug report and not a feature request.

Were getting off topic, but normally people spend their free time with things that satisfy them. Satisfaction can be gained by money, but for a lot of OSS it's because its something that person developing it uses: If some minor issue is bugging me, I'll spend time fixing it. If there is I major issue, but it doesn't bug me, there is no satisfaction in fixing it, unless I get satisfaction by people telling me that I did a great job. People just complaining do not help at all.
Besides: Mac is definitely no major target platform. AFAIK neverpanic is currently working on it, and he already put quite some time into getting it to work the way it does. Thus it was no "why don't you fix it yourself?", but a "Fix it yourself, pay for it being fixed or stop complaining." - After all the broker is an Enterprise feature, thus spending a little money would do no bad.....

Yes, yes, we know. The software is free. Every time anyone expresses concern with something like the, this is the argument that comes forth, which suddenly makes our concerns invalid if we don't suddenly know how to fix the problem ourselves in a language we're not familiar with. I am grateful for the software, but as a developer myself, I find that programmers are way too sensitive to criticism. Sometimes users get upset when glaring issues are put on the back burner while other, much less severe bugs are added to new releases. It's going to happen and it's a critical part of the feedback and development cycle. Never is "why don't you fix it yourself?" a proper response.

This is very disappointing. It's been 6 months since this report was

in July, it still was not fixed in the current version. Will we be
stuck with this bug for another six months?

Filing and acknowledging bugs does not fix them. You get X2Go for free,
thus I can see no justification for you to complain. Instead of whining
you could give something back to those people who spent many hours
working on X2Go for free(!). Either by providing a patch your self or by
putting out a bounty.

     + Split up package into bin:packages: x2goclient, x2goplugin,
       x2goplugin-provider.
     + Make sure lrelease-qt4 is executed (not just lrelease).
