Nitpicking: you don't "log into the client" -- you tell the client to
log you into the FreeNX server.

Which client are you using, BTW? I assume the NoMachine NX Client?

You can also choose KDE (for it to run, you need to have it installed,
of course).

And then there is the "Custom" session to select, which you may set
up to run any command or GUI app you like. However, you may need to
use the absolute path to your app, and also write your own wrapper 
script that sets up the environment vars needed by the respective 
app, and then starts the app.
