[FreeNX-kNX] Suspend seems to work, but resume has issues

Hi,
WinXP SP2, NX Client 1.5.0-106 : RHEL3, FreeNX-0.4.3, NX GPL libs 1.5.0
I have no problem connecting from WinXP to Linux and I can suspend sessions by
closing the client window and clicking suspend in the pop-up window that
appears.
Resume detects the old session and reconnects to it. There are now two
scenarios:
In Full Screen mode, the resume looks correct, but there is an extra NX window
in the background that is as small as a window can get, but seems to have
transparent contents (if I resize the window). If this window is active, key
presses do not get to the Linux session, but minimising it removes that
issue.
In Windowed mode (I was using Available Area), the Linux display seems as if
it appears on the desktop - it has no window decorations and the windows tool
bar is still visible. A extra window appears, similar to the one in full
screen mode, but this time on top rather than in the background. While this
window remains active the Linux session will accept key presses, but if it is
minimised, the key presses are no longer forwarded to Linux.
What I would expect is, in the first case, no extra window appears. In the
second case the Linux desktop should appear in a window and no extra window
should be present.
I have no such problems if I use the Linux NX Client 1.5.0-106, which seems to
work pretty much perfectly.
I guess this is a NX Client bug rather than a FreeNX bug - but you never know
I suppose.
Thanks,
Nick.
