[FreeNX-kNX] PPC Linux NX Client?

Yeah, you are not going to be using make utils to compile it.

I downloaded it and it appears to be some sort of IDE config.

I instantly thought it was Kdevelop, so I tried loading that up but the 
project file I think is for qmake.

I do not like the fact that it would appear that this client uses closed 
free binaries from nx.

I could be wrong, but although the library is free from NX, you do not 
get the source code.

When we are talking about such basic things as connecting people 
remotely to services, through a computer network, I like to have the 
source code to audit everything.

Since I did not see a source rpm for the nx libs, I didn't bother 
figuring out how to build it.
