-====== X2Go Desktop Bindings ======
-To integrate X2Go fluently into your desktop, we provide desktop binding tools for the most common desktop environments. The following desktops are supported:
-  * GNOME (v2.x)
-  * KDE/Plasma (v4.x)
-  * LXDE (v5.x)
-  * Trinity (KDE3 fork, v3.5.x) -> planned FIXME
-  * XFCE4 (v4.x) -> not planned yet, but requested by the community (help welcome)
-The functionalities offered by the desktop bindings are:
-  * integrate functionalities around //Local Folder Sharing// (SSHFS mounted client shares) into the destkop
-  * menu item for suspending X2Go sessions (not in LXDE)
-  * remove non-remote desktop menu items (like suspend-2-RAM, suspend-2-Disk, shutdown and reboot menu items) from X2Go desktops
-NOTE: All desktop binding packages have to be installed on the X2Go server(s).
-:!: **Before you begin!**
-> Installation of the desktop bindings are currently only provided as Debian/Ubuntu packages. Please make sure that you have added the x2go repository to your package management system. The required steps are described [[wiki:x2go-repository-debian|here (Debian)]] and [[wiki:x2go-repository-ubuntu|here (Ubuntu)]]
-===== Desktop Bindings for GNOME (v2.x) =====
-X2Go bindings for GNOME (package name: ''x2gognomebindings'') will add additional X2Go-related functionality to your GNOME Desktop.
-====== Installation ======
-<code>
-$ aptitude install x2gognomebindings
-</code>
-====== Usage ======
-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 package defines a set of desktop icons and MIME types so that mounted client shares get associated to opening Nautilus.
-The X2Go GNOME desktop bindings package also adds a context menu item that allows the X2Go session user to unmount shared client folders by right-clicking on their desktop icons.
-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 ======
-<code>
-$ aptitude install plasma-widget-x2go
-</code>
-===== 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 desktops 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.
