NAME

6       x2gokdrive - X server providing a graphical backend for X2Go Server
7

SYNOPSIS

9       x2gokdrive [:display] [option ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       x2gokdrive  is  a  kdrive  server that provides a graphical backend for
13       X2Go desktop sessions, supporting  modern  extensions  like  composite,
14       damage and randr.
15
16       Unlike nxagent (aka x2goagent) which is an X proxy, i.e. limited to the
17       capabilities of the host X server, x2gokdrive is a real X server  which
18       uses the host X server window as "framebuffer" via fast SHM XImages.

OPTIONS

22       The server accepts all the standard options of Xserver(1).
23
24       Furthermore,  it  understands  the nxagent-way of providing session op‐
25       tions via the $DISPLAY environment variable. Currently, only  a  subset
26       of  nxagent's  nx/nx  display options is supported. Non-supported nx/nx
27       options get ignored.

SIGNALS

31       Sending the SIGHUP signal to x2gokdrive switches the X server from run‐
32       ning to suspend state and back.
33
34       Sending  the  SIGTERM signal to x2gokdrive shuts down the X server (and
35       ends all applications attached to its $DISPLAY).

CAVEATS

39       • The '-host-cursor' cursor is static in its appearance.
40
41       • The build gets a warning about 'nanosleep'. I think the various  '-D'
42         build  flags  are  causing this. I haven't figured as yet how to work
43         round it. It doesn't appear to break anything however.
