[FreeNX-kNX] FreeNX 0.5.0 - Snapshot 5

[Terje Andersen]

I don't have exactly the same problem, but I think it's the same issue that 
causes my "problem" (not a problem actually, more an annoyance to me)...

I connect to FreeNX from a similar client, version and all, and if I use 
CTRL+ESC (which brings up windows' startmenu), and then activates the 
nxclient again, the CTRL-key gets stuck in as if I'm holding it down. I can 
release it with a keypress, and everything is back to normal again.

Similarly, if I use ALT+TAB to switch to a local application (on winxp), and 
then switch back to FreeNX again, the same thing happens to the ALT-key 
inside FreeNX , and have to push ALT once to reset it, and everything is back 
to normal again.

I haven't experienced any randomness to this, I can always backtrace it to 
what I have done in the process of switching back-and-forth between winxp and 
the nxclient.

A problem I do have, though, is that if I let a suspended session run for some 
hours (exactly how long time, I'm not sure) I can't resume it.
The client tries, then fails, and if I try again the NX Session administration 
windows is being brought up and I choose to resume the suspended session 
which then fails (times out). 
OK, this I've seen earlier - so I ssh into the box and runs 'nxserver 
--suspend <username>' because it's in a running state. 
And here comes the funny stuff, the nxserver responds immediately with 'BYE' 
without touching my running session....

I have to do a cleanup/terminate to kill the session.

I upgraded to SnapShot 5 earlier today (manual upgrade from earlier packages 
from seveas on ubuntu dapper), and will try out if this one works better.

PS! Thanks for all the work you are doing Fabian! ;-)
