not working for me, on a clean x86_64 box, i did a yum install nx
freenx, and its setup fine ( pulls in openssl.i686 and a few more deps -
nothing X related ). I can use a client ( again from a x86_64 machine )
and login, the auth goes through fine, the desktop comes up too. But I
get no window borders in the nx session, and using the mouse is a hit
and miss situation, the pointer seems to be offset by about 80 px X 30
px, making it effectively unusable.
Is there something that I might have missed here ? I am a NX Noobie, so
if anyone has words of wisdom to shed, please do so.
