Got nx 3.3.0-38.fc12.  Latest one in the repos.

Yup, had done that also.  Reinstalled *nx* actually.

It is pretty benign looking.  Makes me wonder if that is really where
the problem is:

        wait $NODE_AGENT_PID

> ssh -X myserver; /usr/libexec/nx/nxnode --agent

I assume that means run ssh and then inside the ssh run
/usr/libexec/nx/nxnode --agent rather than passing that whole thing to a
shell?  If so, I get this:

[jsiddall at terminalserver ~]$ /usr/libexec/nx/nxnode --agent

Hmmm... well, yes, there is an X server active on display 0, but I
didn't think a local X server was a problem.  Any thoughts?
