[FreeNX-kNX] nxdesktop not working properly

Wed Mar 28 13:02:15 UTC 2007

Hello,

i'm using freenx 0.6 with NoMachine progs from 2.1. I installed these on
my debian etch system with help of deb-packages I found here in the
list.

A normal KDE session with 1.5.0-138 or 2.1.0-17 client is working fine,
but a windows session does not work with any of these clients. If I
manually start "nxdesktop <IP>", the connection is working fine.

Is this problem known, or does it work on your installations?

Here is the output from nxserver.log:

in the clients sshlog I additionaly get this:

NX> 105 Can't open

but I already checked these dirs. they get created and deleted during
session initialization and closing. Might be a possible race condition?

this is the output from the session file on the server:

I can't find any hints in the files to solve the problem. Can anyone
help?

Thanx,
