Last modified: 2008-04-05 04:31:32 EDT
Description of problem: Having installed freenx-0.5.0-2.fc5 and nx-2.0.0-3.fc5 on a x86_64 machine with FC6 (I use the FC5 rpm's because they are not available under FC6/x86_64). When logging in from some nx client (Linux or Windows), and the connection is setup (this is done correctly) and I my the mouse over the KDE desktop, then the desktop begins to flicker with an old style screensaver (moving X letters in capitals and no-capitals over the screen). This was not after I had installed FC6 on the x86_64 machine, but after a very recent "yum update". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.5.5-0.4.fc6 How reproducible: Each time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Connect with nxclient to a FC6 x86_64 machine 2.MOve the mouse after the established KDE desktop 3.The desktop flickers with some old style X screensaver Actual results: See 3. Expected results: No fickering Additional info: The same probs under FC5/x86_64
