This article describes how to install FreeNX and NoMachine NX on openSUSE and run both servers separately or in parallel. smbmount and smbumount as well as missing CUPS drivers are several examples. Since 2008, several commands needed by FreeNX have become deprecated, unavailable or have changed path, leading to various warning and error messages. Different distros use their own pre- and post-install scripts. I also updated NX agent - needed by FreeNX - to version 3.5.0.Īlthough FreeNX installation looks (and is) simple, it might be tricky to get it working. The latest FreeNX build in my repo includes some of the most recent patches borrowed from ArchLinux and Fedora 17 together with some bug fixes for openSUSE.
Although FreeNX development has stalled since 2008, Linux distros continue to release version 0.7.3 with new patches. The NoMachine Free edition is limited to 2 simultaneous client connections.įreeNX is open source and doesn't have this limitation. NoMachine NX is a commercial product which provides a Free edition available for download. The two most popular NX server applications used on Linux are NoMachine NX and FreeNX. The connection is fast and secure, thanks to data compression and SSH encryption.
NX is a remote display technology which allows you to open a desktop session to an X Window server.
