DESCRIPTION

       x2gostartagent coordinates the startup process of a new X2Go session.  It expects quite a
       list of parameters, all of which are obligatory.

       x2gostartagent is run with X2Go user privileges and normally executed by an X2Go client
       application.

ARGUMENTS

       <geometry>
              Session window size on screen (allowed values: <width>x<height> or fullscreen).

       <link_quality>
              Any value out of: modem, isdn, adsl, wan or lan.

       <nx_pack_method>
              NX compression method (see below for possible values).

       <cache_type+dpi>
              Cache type and color depth for X2Go session window. The most common value is: unix-
              kde-depth_24 where ,,24'' is the color depth in bit.

       <kblayout>
              Keyboard layout (e.g. us, de, etc.).

       <kbtype>
              Keyboard type/model (e.g. pc105/us).

       <setkbd>
              Force setting keyboard layout and type within the X2Go session on startup. Values:
              0 or 1.

       <session_type>
              Allowed values for <session_type> are: D (desktop), R (rootless) or S (shadow
              session, X2Go desktop sharing).

       <command>
              The command given by the <command> argument is only used to create the session ID
              for this new X2Go session. The actual execution of a command is handled by
              x2goruncommand.

       <clipboardmode>
              The session's clipboard mode. Possible values: both, server, client, none. Allows
              to configure clipboard security per session via the connecting X2Go client. If the
              clipboard parameter is set server-side in /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options, then that
              value will override client-side settings.

RETURN VALUES

       A list of session attributes is returned after successful session startup. Session
       attributes will be presented on a line-by-line basis:

           field 01: <X_display_number>
           field 02: <session_cookie_hash>
           field 03: <agent_pid>
           field 04: <session_id>
           field 05: <graphics_port>
           field 06: <sound_port>
           field 07: <sshfs_port>
           field 08: <tekictrl_port> (if Telekinesis is available/enabled)
           field 09: <tekidata_port> (if Telekinesis is available/enabled)
