Than I would call it a "packaging issue", because the users are added
to the group by (our) package. As there is no debian maintainer for
x2go and there are no debian hosted packages I don't know how to go
on. When I'm looking on virtualbox, I see the same behaviour: You must
be member of the group "vboxuser" to access virtualbox (as with
x2goserver: you must be member of the group "x2gousers").
Please give me a hint, how this could be solved.

best regaards,

Heinz
