Thank you, still very useful for VS Code 1.24.1 and x2go on ubuntu 16.04.
But I am wondering what it might brake on an other place?

Had to use the following for RHEL 7:

sudo sed -i 's/BIG-REQUESTS/_IG-REQUESTS/' /usr/lib64/libxcb.so.1

one other way to do it is to disable the big-requests extension

sudo vim /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options

X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS=" -extension BIG-REQUESTS"

and restart x2goserver

sudo service x2goserver restart
