-FIXME+When you launch the ''x2goclient'' for the first time, it will start the ''new session'' dialogue automatically. On the first tab, fill out the ''Session Name'', type the IP of the host in the ''Host'' and add your username to the ''Login'' field. If you use a non-standard ssh port on your host, change that as well, in the ''SSH Port'' field. 
 + 
 +Moving down to the ''Session Type'' field, select your desktop environment. If your environment is not on the list, use the "Custom Desktop" option, and specify the command that starts the desktop or VM.  
 + 
 +Lastly, if you are using something other than a US keyboard, go to the ''Settings'' tab, and specify the keyboard layout there. Click Ok and start your session by selecting it on the main window.
