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.
  Press 'OK' to save the session.
