[FreeNX-kNX] Compiling NX1.5.0 on amd64

[LROUFAIL at nc.rr.com]

Nomachine is a company.  They produce native packages for platforms
based on what the market desires.

We are fortunate they don't just create software for Windows like most
commercial software.

We are also fortunate they release their core libraries to GPL so that
the community has the opportunity to provide support for other platforms.

Most of the serious developers on NX technology will say that Nomachine
has been very friendly to the community - even when it clearly has a
negative impact on their own business.

If you want commercial support for your platform, buy a license and then
contact Nomachine and ask about creating a business relationship and
what it would cost.

Don't take potshots at them from a free forum.  They don't owe us better
documentation.  The code is a good enough gift to the community.  If you
want more you should pay for it.

It's the package that released by NoMachine. Anywhere is it stated that the
files in nx-X11/lib/X11was not written by your people and supposed to be the
same Xlib code of XFree86/X.org distributions?

Your knowledge base is so 'user friendly' that it is short of information
that developers would need. For example, reading through the 'building NX
components' article doesn't solve the compilation problems I met at all.

You know I am not trolling. I have spent several nights on it, and have
reported the compilation attempt at length. I understand that critical words
are hard to digest but if you think this is still trolling I could say
nothing else. No more flamebait, just feel frustrated by the current NX
package. It could only be mitigated after somebody managed to get deb/rpm
package done/patched.
