This report is to draw your attention to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1650586 This is on Fedora 29 xfdesktop-4.13.2-20.fc29.x86_64 connecting to an XFCE session with x2goclient Most times (it seems to depend on some applications to be open) when I resize the desktop, xfdesktop crashes and restarts. This is running under x2goclient. Users reporting in the above bugzilla have the same and other scenarios. Partial strace trace of my crash: Message: Process 21246 (xfdesktop) of user 5125 dumped core.

Probably a dup of Bug #14609, the fix is in git master.
It might be fixed with xfdesktop 4.13.3, can you test please ?
I'm not seeing these anymore with Fedora 29: xfdesktop-4.13.3-1.fc29.x86_64 Previously users connecting with x2go and resizing their screen would see this crash and xfdesktop restarting. WIth 4.13.3 I'm not seeing the crash/restart anymore.
