[FreeNX-kNX] FreeNX 0.4.3 in rootless mode with NX 1.5.0 clientdoes not work?

[Ben Voigt]

I've got the same issue, but it appears to be related to the command and not
rootless mode.  KDE sessions fail to a black screen, xterm works.
 
I'm using !M windows client 1.5.0 and the latest freenx CVS with 1.4.0 OSS
components.
 
The !M logo appears, then after a while then screen turns gray, then
sometime later it turns black.
 
I upgraded the client and it still worked, it's a freenx change that caused
the failures.

All,

If you are testing the new CVS build, can you please confirm if you are able
to run in rootless mode or not with NX for Windows 1.5.0 client.

In the NX session configuration with the client, I had 

Desktop-->Unix-->Custom->Run the console-->floating windows or new virtual
desktop option

The above option does not work, unless you select "Run the following
command" with "/usr/bin/xterm" in the path.

What is happening with 

1) Floating Windows -- It logs in and when its about to start the session
the NX 1.5.0 client automatically closes while on the server the session is
in a running state.  The 1.4.0 client works, except I do not see any speed
improvementt in rootless mode.  It's probably the new rootless mode is not
compatible with 1.4.0

2) Virtual Desktop -- This one "looked" like it was working.  It displays
the !M logo and then... A BLACK SCREEN..... 

I checked the nxserver.log file and there is nothing in it that tells me
what might have happened.
