Hi Freek,

I tested "my" FreeNX, NX packages on openSUSE 11.1 x86_64 LiveCD (running from LiveCD, not
installed). And it's working. What I did:

Boot openSUSE 11.1 x86_64 LiveCD. Create a local user for NX login, and install FreeNX and NX as root.

# su -
# /etc/init.d/sshd start
# zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home://beyerle://NX/openSUSE_11.1/home:beyerle:NX.repo
# zypper mr -e -a
# zypper install FreeNX
# rpm -qa | grep NX
NX-3.2.0-45.1
FreeNX-0.7.3-4.1
# nxsetup --install --setup-nomachine-key --clean
# nxserver --status
NX> 100 NXSERVER - Version 3.2.0-73 OS (GPL, using backend: not detected)
NX> 110 NX Server is running

First test, if you can connect as local user with ssh and afterwards connect with nxclient. I used nxclient
(nxclient-3.3.0-3) from nomachine.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

	Urs
