I'm interested, but I only know nx from the user point of view.<br>I'm very new to freenx, so I could test new releases.<br>I did a lot of research to find an updated version of freenx in a debian format, as I didn't find it
<br>I now use the free edition of nx from nomachine site in my home computer, but in my workstation I use gpl freenx 0.60.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2008/1/8, Emilio Scalise <<a href="mailto:emisca@rocketmail.com">

I've searched a lot on the web, but there are no recent packages on the net.<br>Kanotix repo maintainer who had built some freenx packages left the job.<br><br>There were some packages for ubuntu, but they are now outdated:
<br><a href="http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas/dists/feisty-seveas/freenx/">http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas/dists/feisty-seveas/freenx/</a><br><br>Jeremy Wilkins updated them, and a repository with those packages (further
<br>updated by Marcelo Boveto Shima) can be found at<br><a href="https://edge.launchpad.net/~marceloshima/+archive">https://edge.launchpad.net/~marceloshima/+archive</a><br>I've taken them and compiled on Etch (as backports with pbuilder). They
<br>worked, but I had problems with session management. I think we should work<br>improving things.<br>We must also discuss to choose which nx version we should use as backed<br>(Marcelo used nx 3.1, that's not so supported by freenx upstream..).
<br><br>Fedora currently has official packages of freenx 0.7.1 and nx 2.1.0. These<br>packages are actively maintained and there are patches that solve many bugs<br>present upstream. We could use also use those sources as a starting point,
<br>naturally changing the distro-relative things, like paths etc etc.<br><br>I can help in packaging, as I have some knowledge about it. I know nx from the<br>administrator point of view.<br>I've also contributed to compiz/compiz-fusion packages, so I'm not so new
<br>about the debian-x politics and procedures.<br><br>Please let me know if the alioth group is still active, if someone is<br>interested in those packages for official inclusion or not.<br><br>Regards,<br>Emilio<br><br>
