 X2Go GNOME desktop bindings take care of mounted X2Go shares (local client folder sharing). If a client share is mounted via your X2Go client application, a desktop icon appears that will start Nautilus opening the mounted (SSHFS) share.

 The X2Go GNOME desktop bindings package furtheron adds a //Systen// menu item to your GNOME panel. Users will be able to suspend their X2GO sessions with just a click on a menu entry: //System// -> //Suspend X2Go Session//.
+===== Desktop Bindings for KDE/Plasma (v4.x) =====
+X2Go bindings for KDE/Plasma offer an X2Go plasmoid for the Plasma desktop framework. The X2Go plasmoid adds additional X2Go-related functionality to your KDE/Plasma Desktop (package name: ''plasma-widget-x2go'').
+==== Installation ====
+:!: Note: this package has undergone some renamings in 2011; from x2goplasmoid to x2goplasmoidbindings, to plasma-widget-x2go.
+<code>
+$ aptitude install plasma-widget-x2go
+</code>
+==== Usage ====
+After the installation every KDE4/Plasma user on the server has the possibility to add the X2Go plasmoid applet to the desktop or to the taskbar (recommended). //Note:// the X2Go plasmoid is not available on the user desktops directly after installation, it __has__ to be integrated into the desktop by each individual user.
+Once the X2Go plasmoid has been added to desktop or taskbar, the plasmoid will notify you about newly mounted client-side shared folders. You will be able to launch KDE4's file browser ''dolphin'' by left-clicking on one of these shares, you also have the possiblity to unmount/eject those shares.
+At the bottom of the X2Go plasmoid's applet box area, you have a link that allows you to suspend your current X2Go session.
+===== Desktop Bindings for LXDE (v5.x) =====
+X2Go bindings for LXDE (package name: ''x2golxdebindings'') will add additional X2Go-related functionality to your LXDE Desktop.
+==== Installation ====
+<code>
+$ aptitude install x2golxdebindings
+</code>
+===== Desktop Bindings for Trinity (v3.5.x) =====
+:!: **WARNING:**
+> The desktop bindings for the Trinity desktop are planned and there already exists a Git project in the X2Go Git VCS. There already appears a package ''x2gotrinitybindings'' in the nightly-built package repositories (Debian/Ubuntu), but the code is very dysfunctional and not usable at all.
+===== Desktop Bindings for XFCE4 (v4.x) =====
+:!: **WARNING:**
+> There currently are no desktop bindings for the XFCE4 desktop, but there has been a request from the community to work on that. Any help on this is appreciated, it might be fertile to adapt the ''x2gognomebindings'' package for that purpose. Please [[contact:start|contact]] the developers on the X2Go developers mailing list.
