Can anyone comment on the best remote GUI approach for C7 yet?
X2goserver is in epel but when I tried it on the RHEL beta it only worked with a KDE desktop due to the 3d requirement of Gnome3.

I toyed around with FreeNX on a Fedora (17 maybe?) system some time ago.
I had to modify a few settings so GNOME3 would default to classic/fallback mode.
— set COMMAND_START_GNOME to “/usr/bin/gnome-session –session=gnome”
There is also a bug [0] where the session didn’t get set properly and the display mode.
— use Ctrl-Alt-R to get into desktop resize mode
— in my case I had to hit that key sequence twice

Gnome3 still doesn’t work with the default configuration but MATE
desktop is now in EPEL and seems to work nicely (just like gnome2).
+1 I have x2go working with mate and xfce, xfce had a dependency issue but has since been corrected and works also.
