Is it this one:

???

Are you expecting miracles? Did you also take your grief to NoMachine's
support people? Do you think that complaining *here* about it can 
change anything for the better? (In case you're in doubt: this list can
do nothing to heal what you are now complaining about.)

I assume the fix is one the way, given that NoMachine have *publically*
and prominently acknowledged the problem, and categorized it as 
"Severity: Serious".

Just be at least as patient as you would be with Microsoft fixing their
Terminal Server bugs.

Also, don't confuse FreeNX bugs with NoMachine bugs. And don't expect
NoMachine to fix FreeNX bugs (regardless if you pay or pay not for their
30 days of installation support).

From what I know, this is exactly what you usually get from NoMachine
if you report a problem.

I am sure we all will be getting it; it just takes its time. Pity that
you do not want to wait for it.
