Hello, Tom.

I had serious problems running FreeNX on Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS and I've 
stopped using it. The problem might have been related to my running an 
openMosix 2.4 kernel (linux-2.4.26-om1) but I thoght that freeNX was 
more trouble than it is worth in the end. I also feel uncomfortable 
about having to use the proprietary NX clients, which are incompatible 
with FreeNX according to which version of the server you're running.

I've gone back to using TightVNC :-)

Do you not want the BeWAN PCI ADSL modem that I offered you BTW?

        Tony.
