NX employs "nxclient" server side to display messages (suspend etc.), to 
lift the dependency on the non-free !M nxclient, FreeNX ships a small, 
partly ABI compatible, replacement which can use !M nxclient (if 
installed), Xdialog or xmessage for displaying these modal dialogues. It is 
*only* a stub for displaying the server side messages, not an NX client in 
any way.
