There are some NX-3.0.0 RPMS that currently seem to work OK with the current freenx (0.6.0-13) backend (for centos-5).
They do not do all the new things that nx-3.0 can do (we are waiting on a new freenx that does those things) ... however this version does compile on x86_64 (and there is also a version of freenx for x86_64 as well).
Currently there is a symlink to /usr/lib/NX for 64bit OSes as well ... but that also should be cleared up when the new FreeNX is released.
For anyone who wants native x86_64 support, these should be OK, at least for testing.
I am testing it on a C5 x86_64 machine. First, I needed to uninstall the existing nx-2.x to install the new nx-3.x. Otherwise, I get an error:
unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/NX: cpio: rename
Now, nx-3 has been installed but does not work. I get connected but with a black screen. After 1 minute or so, the whole thing disappears.
Any suggestions?
