-====== FAQ ======
-===== How do I change the keyboard layout? =====
-Although some tools (e.g. Gnome Keyboard Indicator) might have trouble changing the layout, you should be able to change the keyboard layout using setxkbmap.
-<code>
-setxkbmap de
-setxkbmap us
-</code>
-===== Is x2go compatible with nomachines NX or freeNX? =====
-No even though x2go uses the same libraries, X2go aims for an even greater integration into the Linux environment. It’s not possible to use a nx client to log on to a x2go server and vice versa.
-===== Wat is the difference to LTSP? Why a free thin client environment? =====
-Nomachine’s nx libraries enable the transport of whole desktop sessions over a narrow band connection. X2go does not only provide for the use with in a local area network, but also allows for the integration of a mobile network into the system. Further bonuses of x2go are to pause desktop sessions and  take it to a different thin client for further use.
-===== Can I install freeNX and x2goserver on one system? =====
-Yes - the NX libraries of x2goserver are copied to /usr/lib/x2go, so they can be installed parallel to an existing freeNX installation.
-===== Do I need a postgres database to run x2goserver? =====
-No. The postgres database is only needed if you are planing to use more than one connected server (server array). Please use x2goserver-one for installation to avoid the installation of postgreSQL.
-===== Is there a windows client? =====
-Yes, you can find it on our download page.
-===== Is there a mac client? =====
-Yes, you can find it on our download page.
-===== Can I use x2goprint with windows clients? =====
-To set a print target, you'll need x2goclient. For example you can use the rdp tunneling feature of x2go.
