We want to use NX instead of XDMCP to connect a client to a server over a slow
connection. So, I just tried out desktop type "xdm" under nxclient. However
I got the error message
Session type 'unix-xdm' is not supported by server
when trying to connect to a FreeNX server. Is there some way to get xdm
working under FreeNX, or is it not supported at all?
If it's not supported, I guess this isn't that bad: AFAICS, we could simply
start X with "nxclient" as "window manager". Then the interface for
selecting the user is a bit different than that of kdm (that's the display
manager we usually install), but users should've no trouble with it.
