[FreeNX-kNX] encoding/compression not respected when rootless mode used?

I have Linux / nx 2.1.0 / freenx 0.6.0 on the server side, and Linux / 
nxclient-2.1.0-11 on the client side.

I noticed that when I connect in a rootless mode to start single apps, 
encoding/compression settings are not respected.

In other words, although I set encoding to jpeg,
worst quality (0), the quality of the started application is very good.

This has a bad side effect for me - for example, when I start Mozilla 
Thunderbird, and want to display the "About" window (or images etc.), 
the connection freezes, and breaks after some time.

If I start the whole KDE session, and Thunderbird in it, About window is 
displayed without problems - I also see that the quality is really "jpeg".


Is it a configuration problem on my side, or perhaps custom 
encoding/compression is really not respected in rootless / single 
application mode?
