:!: Versions prior to 3.99.0.2 may have problems connecting to x2goserver if an antivirus product is installed on the client (even if it is disabled/inactive).

:!: The Windows installer is based on Nullsoft and thus can be called with "/S" (case-sensitive) to perform a silent installation.

===== MacOS X =====	 

==== Xquartz (required by X2Go Client) ====

:!: The X2Go Mac client uses the OSX X11 server which can be obtained from [[http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/|here]]. 

  * The X11 server must be configured to accept remote sessions in its preferences. 
  * One must also enable a root screen in X11 preferences if one wants truly full screen view in X2Go. 
  * After installation of XQuartz, the user has to log off and log on again.
  * Read further hints [[http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.terminal-server.x2go.devel/525|here]]...
