   * New upstream release (4.0.1.16):
     - Support GNOME Flashback session (GNOME 3.8+) on distro releases such as
       Ubuntu 13.10+ and debian Jessie
-      (Note: This requires that gnome-flashback.session actually be installed.
-       It also currently requires that the gnome-session binary not require
-       hardware 3D acceleration for said session.)

+       This requires that gnome-flashback.session actually be installed. Not
+       every Linux distro has it available.
+       It also requires that the gnome-session binary not require

+       builds do not. See bug X2Go #599 for example.)
