I just upgraded to an amd64 machine and have tried building FreeNX 0.7.2
with the 3.2.0 NX libraries. However, when I run "nxnode --agent" locally,
I get the following error:
NX> 1000 NXNODE - Version 2.1.0-72 OS (GPL, using backend: 3.2.0)
NX> 716 Starting NX Agent ...
NXAGENT - Version 3.2.0

As best I can tell, this is a potentially unresolved issue related to
nxagent not being 64-bit clean [1].
Is it still the case that nxagent is known not to work? Or is there a
patch available that fixes the issue that I've missed? Or am I just
completely wrong?
Assuming nxagent is broken, is the right answer just to build a 32-bit
version?
Thanks!
