Debian Buster already contains x2go packages (for older refer to https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:repositories:debian)

sudo apt-get install x2goserver x2goclient x2goserver-xsession x2goserver-desktopsharing

Desktopsharing run applet: Application menu –> internet –> X2GO Destkop sharing. New applet icon will appear on taskbar. Click on it and activate desktop sharing.

  Start the client.

Preparing the session:

• Create a new session with “session | new session…”.
• Assign a session name.
• As 'host name' give the name of the machine, the session you want to connect to, is running on.
• As 'user name' give your account on the remote machine.
• As 'session type' choose 'connection to local desktop'.
  • Recommended: choose “full screen” on the settings tab. Otherwise, everything can become too small to read.

Use 4k-png compression.

  Press 'OK' to save the session.
