Installing the 2X client on 64-bit Ubuntu

For anyone else out there trying to get the 2X client working on current 64-bit versions of Ubuntu.

I found a guide at https://superuser.com/questions/584137/ ... bit-ubuntu that covered most of what was needed. However 2X client was still dumping core due to missing 32-bit libqtdbus4 libraries. The steps below worked on 64-bit 14.04 beta. I haven't tried, but they'll probably work on 13.10 as well.

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo dpkg -i 2XClient.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 libxpm4:i386 libxml2:i386 libqtdbus4:i386
 
Thanks for contacting 2X Forums and your feedback.

Our developers are monitoring the amount of interest in the 2X Linux Client which is at the moment 32bit only, and should there be enough interest in the 64bit client we'll consider a more permanent release.

If you have any further feedback please let us know.
 
thanks,
I tried that on ubuntu 14.04 64bit

works, but unstable, after few minutes disconnect session (rdp)
pity..
 
I'm interested on any linux rdp client that can do two way audio.
I' trying to install this on a 64bit kubuntu 14.04, but:

sudo dpkg -i 2xclient.deb

The chrome app works but audio is only one way. I can hear windows but not record. Headset unusable
 
If we decide to switch to 2X RDP we will have 60+ Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit machines that will require a working client. A native 64-bit client would be excellent.

I found that after installing the package the client would not run. Running from a terminal reveals:
/opt/2X/Client/bin/2XClient: error while loading shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I installed the missing dependency:
apt-get install libxml2:i386


Using 2X Linux Debian package:
Version: 12.0.2270
MD5: 0a375eb4f20c6c6cf10e9c2992994846 /tmp/2xclient.deb

Ubuntu 12.04/amd64 and 14.04/amd64
 
We are preparing to roll out 64-bit Ubuntu Linux servers to 300+ remote locations. We can get the 32-bit 2X to work using the hacks above, but it would obviously be preferable it have a 64-bit clean binary. Can you advise us when a 64-bit 2X client for Linux will be available?
 
hy! for 2X client working very well on current 64-bit versions of Ubuntu. i try it
