FreeNX complete suite uploaded.
Hello! I have been maintainining the FreeNX complete suite for at least 2 years and now I uploaded it to revu. New packages: - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=nxagent - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=nx-x11 - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=nxcompext - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=nxcompshad - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=freenx-server Updated package: - http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=nxcomp An open source client is already at debian repository (qtnx, nxcl, nxproxy and nxcomp). What is freenx? NX is an exciting new technology for remote display. It provides *near local speed* application responsiveness over high latency, low bandwidth links. The core libraries for NX are provided by NoMachine under the GPL. FreeNX is a GPL implementation of the NX Server and NX Client Components. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX The community is very responsive and active as you can see at the FreeNX list archive: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/freenx-knx We maintain a ppa at https://edge.launchpad.net/~freenx-team/+archive/ppa Related needs packaging bugs: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/183801 https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252755 https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252760 Thanks.

Re: Proposed Features for Launchpad Bugs 3.0 - call for help!
Hi, I'm not a motu but I want to give my opinion on this. I tried several times the revu process but without success. This was because the review took so long (a month) that I always give up. I've uploaded azureus, synce (others related), omnibook (driver for my notebook), and the last were virt-manager and libvirt (both adopted by a debian maintainer, with corrections of corse) I know the Motu team doesn't have enought man power. So revu process should became easier by integrating it into launchpad. Launchpad already has PPA (builds the package with lintian checks, creates necessary debdiff and can have tests if the package works for users) so an option "Propose for Ubuntu" that puts the package with all necessary information into a queue for review. This would be a killer feature for merges and little corrections. Would be nice to have approved count exclusive to motu on this queue.

Re: NX 3.2.0 packages
I just uploaded. Lots have been done in the packages. - A team was created with some guys that were working on it. https://launchpad.net/~freenx-team - The packaging is hosted at bzr. - PPA repository was created. Can someone take a look at nx and nxcompshad that is in revu?

NX 3.2.0 packages
Hello, Is there a possibility that FreeNX + NX packages to get accepted into universe? The packages are on my ppa: https://launchpad.net/~marceloshima/+archive Pros and Cons: - NX is a fork of Xorg 6.9. It's duplicate source code. - There is no security problem because only 3 libs (libX11, libXext and libXrender) are shipped on the package and they can have the security patches ported from dapper. I remember it was a problem because NX was a fork of XFree86. - This libs can be renamed to libXXX-nx. So will not conflict with the Xorg ones. - libXcomp, NXProxy and qtnx (NX client) are already in. We need the server to make the client useful. - Freenx is shell scripts. But we have Freenx-NG that is python. This was another problem when it was proposed to get in some years ago.
