In this tutorial, we will guide you step by step on how to install X2go on Clear Linux Latest. X2go is a remote desktop tool that allows you to connect to a Linux machine from another desktop computer or mobile device.
To begin, open up the Terminal on your Clear Linux system. You can do this by searching for "Terminal" in the application launcher or by pressing the keyboard shortcut ctrl + alt + t.
To install X2go on your Clear Linux system, you need to install the X2go server and client packages. To do this, enter the following commands in the Terminal:
sudo swupd bundle-add x2goserver x2goclient
This command will install the X2go server and client packages on your system.
After installing X2go, you need to configure it by creating a new user account for remote access. To do this, enter the following command in the Terminal:
sudo x2godbadmin --createdb
You will be prompted to enter a password for the new user account. Once the user account is created, you can configure the X2go server by editing the /etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf file with any text editor:
sudo nano /etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf
You can configure the X2go server settings according to your needs. For example, you can set the session type, screen resolution, and other parameters.
Now that you've configured the X2go server, you can connect to a remote server using the X2go client. Launch the X2go client from the application launcher or by running the following command in the terminal:
x2goclient
Enter the hostname or IP address of the remote server, your username and password, and select your preferred session type. Click the "OK" button to connect to the remote server.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured X2go on your Clear Linux system. You can now use X2go to remotely connect to your Linux system.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
