Fabian,

i had tested a local login it works. This is a fresh Installation with
defaults of F8.
I issued the command as you requested for checking:

The !M Window is appearing and inside is a black screen area i guess
thats 640x480 resolution i close it and the exit status is 0 - seems
fine.
But a connection with the NX Client doesnt work. The server told me that
i should investigate the session file and that contains:
=== 8< ===

[drindt at diogenes ~]$ rpm -q nxclient
