- | ====== PyHoca-GUI | ||
- | |||
- | The name PyHoca is a word play combining two powerful entities: Python and Phoca (mascot of X2go, Latin species name for seals). | ||
- | |||
- | PyHoca-GUI is a client implementation for X2Go using [[wiki: | ||
- | |||
- | PyHoca-GUI is designed as a very minimal GUI that behaves very similar to GNOME' | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Usage ===== | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Command Line Arguments ==== | ||
- | |||
- | PyHoca-GUI has a man page. Considering that it actually is a GUI there are quite some command line options to choose from. | ||
- | |||
- | On your GNU/Linux system execute | ||
- | |||
- | $ man pyhoca-gui | ||
- | |||
- | An always up-to-date html version of the pyhoca-gui man page can be be retrieved from the X2go Git repository: [[http:// | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Launching PyHoca-GUI ==== | ||
- | |||
- | You can launch PyHoca-GUI by typing '' | ||
- | |||
- | PyHoca-GUI will appear on your desktop as a small icon that docks into your systray (as the GNOME applet for Network Manager does). Find this icon---it looks like a little white seal on grey background. | ||
- | |||
- | Note that on Ubuntu 12.04 or later, the Unity interface does not allow PyHoca-gui to create the systray icon. To enable this, we need to edit the gsettings. To allow all applications in the systray, type this in the terminal. | ||
- | < | ||
- | $ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist " | ||
- | </ | ||
- | |||
- | If you would rather whitelist a set of applications, | ||
- | |||
- | < | ||
- | $ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist \ | ||
- | " | ||
- | </ | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Profile Manager ==== | ||
- | |||
- | PyHoca-GUI on Linux uses the same configuration files as X2Go Client. (The Windows version of X2Go Client writes its session profiles into HKCU of the Windows registry). | ||
- | Thus PyHoca-GUI should work out of the box for most setups and user profiles on a System with a working x2goclient configuration. | ||
- | |||
- | If you are new to X2go and try PyHoca-GUI first, then you have to add a session profile for your (first) X2go server. | ||

- | If you // | ||

- | |||
- | ==== Starting Sessions ==== | ||
- | |||
- | To start a PyHoca-GUI session // | ||
- | |||
- | After you have authenticated against one of your configured server session profiles, you can access the authenticated session profile by // | ||
