-====== X2Go Desktop Sharing -- Download, Installation & Usage ====== 
- 
-===== Download ===== 
- 
-==== GNU/Linux ==== 
- 
-=== GNU/Linux package based distribution === 
- 
-Please make sure that you have added the X2Go repository appropriate for your system to your package management system. The required steps are described here:  
- 
-  * [[wiki:x2go-repository-debian|Debian GNU/Linux]] 
-  * [[wiki:x2go-repository-ubuntu|Ubuntu GNU/Linux]] 
- 
-=== GNU/Linux with installation from source tarball === 
- 
-The sources of this X2Go component are available as source tarball under this URL:  
- 
-http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/x2godesktopsharing 
- 
-===== Installation ===== 
- 
-==== GNU/Linux ==== 
- 
-=== Debian / Ubuntu === 
- 
-The ''x2godesktopsharing'' package will install x2godesktopsharing on your GNU/Linux system and will make sure, that every needed package will be installed as dependency. ''x2godesktopsharing'' is an X2Go server-side package. 
- 
-<code> 
-$ aptitude install x2godesktopsharing 
-</code> 
- 
-You can now start x2godesktopsharing with X2Go sessions (that is: on the server) by typing ''x2godesktopsharing'' at the command-line or you'll find it inside the "Internet" section of your menu inside your graphical desktop environment. 
- 
-=== Source Tarball (LinuxFromScratch) === 
- 
-FIXME 
- 
-====== Using X2go Desktop Sharing ====== 
- 
-With the desktopsharing function of X2go you can have full-access the desktop from somebody else like with programs as Remote Desktop. TeamViewer or LogMeIn. You can see an X2go session from somebody else, but you can also see a normal desktop. 
- 
-To do this you need access to port 22. So maybe you need to make a portforwarding on your router. Portforwarding is not discussed here on this page. 
- 
-===== The Server Side ===== 
- 
-First you need to install the package x2godesktopsharing on the server (the machine you want to access, this can be a very normal PC): 
- 
-<code> 
-aptitude install x2godeskstopsharing 
-</code> 
- 
-Then there is a new application in the menu. I can find it with "Applications | Internet | X2go desktop sharing". You can start the program with this command too: 
- 
-<code> 
-$ x2godesktopsharing 
-</code> 
- 
-After starting the application and some searching, you will find a new icon on your panel. On the top the icon it's blue, and under it is white with a red cross in it. When you right-click on the butten you can activate the desktop sharing there. After activating other people who can login, can access your desktop. 
- 
-===== The Client Side ===== 
- 
-On the client I have only experience with "x2go client". If you don't have it you can install it with: 
- 
-<code> 
-aptitude install x2goclient 
-</code> 
- 
-Start it and make a new session with "session | new session...". 
- 
-Give it a session name, a host name, and the username from the user you want to access. In "session type" you choose for "connection to local desktop" Then I will advise you to go to the settings-tab and choose there for "full screen". If you don't realize that everything can become to small to read. Then press "OK" to save the session. 
- 
-Then start the session by clicking on it. Give the password of the user, and start the session. After this you will see a new window where you can choose which running session you want, in most cases there is only one. Choose the session. 
- 
-After this you will login on the desktop from the other. When you have a monitor what's smaller then the other side, it will be maybe a bit difficult to read.  
- 
-Realize that when you want to stop the session and the other is running a normal PC, you will stop the complete PC when you do a shutdown!
