X2go is a powerful remote desktop application that allows you to connect to a remote desktop or server over a secure network. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install X2go on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we begin installing X2go, make sure you have the following:
Ensure your system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Enter your sudo password when prompted and press Enter.
To install X2go server components, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S x2goserver x2goserver-xsession
Wait for the installation process to complete.
To connect to your X2go server, you need to install the X2go client. You can install the X2go client on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
To install the X2go client on Ubuntu, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S x2goclient
After installing the X2go server components, you need to configure the X2go server.
Open the X2go server configuration file using your favorite text editor:
sudo nano /etc/x2go/x2go.conf
Find the following lines in the configuration file and change the values as shown:
X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS=”-extension XFIXES”
Save the changes.
To start the X2go server, run the following command:
sudo systemctl start x2goserver
To enable X2go server to start automatically on system boot, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable x2goserver
Now you can use the X2go client to connect to your X2go server. Open the X2go client and click on the "New Session" button.
Enter the server details (hostname or IP address) and select the session type.
Click on "OK" to start the session.
Now you have successfully installed and configured X2go on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now connect to your remote desktop or server securely using X2go.
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!
