I have an Ubuntu Server 16.04 installation that I later added Lubuntu desktop to. I then installed the x2go server (and the client on my Lubuntu 18.04 laptop).
For some years everything worked like a charm, connecting to the users active display session (to get that to work I had to change the session type to: "customized desktop" with the additional command:
lxsession -s Lubuntu -e LXDE
Sometime around February 2019, several new updates were installed and the server was restarted. After this, the client always gets a new fresh desktop session, rather than connecting to the users already running session. At the site you can still see the open windows for the local user.
I have tried use session type "connect to local desktop" but that only results in a "black screen".
How to fix this?
Additional info:
Connecting to server with ssh when no x2go client connected, and running the command x2golistdesktops returns:
username@:0
After connecting with the client (and getting a new session), running the same command results in:
username@:0
username@:50
This just confirms that the server spawns the desktop session, however the client states that it connects to :0.

Any ideas ?
