I also use x2go, but not gnome3 so I cannot speak to whether or not it |
| 22 |
has issues with that specifically. NX has had issues for past couple |
| 23 |
years with bad combinations of cairo + Xorg + NX libs causing weird |
| 24 |
things like missing fonts in gtk+ apps and random crashing/stalling. |
| 25 |
Latest version of x2go does not seem to suffer this problem, for now. |

The official x2go-client is not as good compared to nxclient, in my |
| 28 |
opinion, as far as managing connections and general look and feel and |
| 29 |
behavior of the app, but once you're connected it works just the same. |

I connect to my home computer from my mobile phone over 3G and the |
| 31 |
speed is great, but too bad the screen is so small! :) |
