this message pops up:

"An error occured when trying to start GNOME-settingdaemon.

Something, like themes, sound or background-settings may not

Comment 1 Axel Thimm 2008-04-11 16:20:43 UTC
This is a collective comment for freenx bugs. There is a new release packaged as
freenx-server-0.7.2-7 in rawhide and soon in updates-testing. Please test it and
see whether it fixed your report.

Also note that freenx has been split into freenx-server and freenx-client. All
current open bug reports will move to freenx-server once it is created in bugzilla.

Comment 2 Axel Thimm 2008-04-24 08:37:47 UTC
freenx has been split into freenx-server and freenx-client. Most open bugs for
freenx addressed parts of the current freenx-server package. See also bug #438660.

freenx-server is currently in testing repos. Please give it a try as it will
soon replace the freenx package.

The Gnome-settings stuff seems to be working as expected in freenx-server 0.7.2-
8!
