[FreeNX-kNX] FreeNX on Solaris 8

[Michael Plotkin]

Hello,

no - I don't. I just rechecked it. I am using the latest versions of server
and client files from NoMachine site. I am using SuSe 9.1 Linux running
KDE session. If you tell me your exact configuration I can try to reproduce
it. Do you have Solaris Sparc or Intel?
