Here are the two steps to doing that. -1. Open your MobaXterm settings, go to the X11 tab, and make sure that the server display mode is set to windowed mode. -If you run individual programs over X11 forwarding, this is worse, but for an entire desktop session it is better. -2. Duplicate your regular command line session that already works, and under the "Advanced SSH settings" tab, set "Execute command" to `env GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE=ubuntu gnome-session --session=ubuntu`. -(If you're not running the same setup I am, look around in `/usr/share/xsessions/`, pick something that looks reasonable, and use everything after `Exec=` on the line with that.) +1.
