NoMachine NX is a fast terminal server and desktop virtualization system based on the X11 protocol. NX is an order of magnitude faster than VNC or X11 and can run on bandwidth as narrow as 10 kBit/sec. In addition, NX translates and embeds the MS Windows Terminal Server and VNC protocols into X/NX, enabling users to compress and accelerate remote Windows and VNC sessions. The NX project provides a suite of libraries and X11 proxying agents implementing efficient compression and optimized transport of X11, SMB, IPP, HTTP, and arbitrary protocols like audio and video over the Internet.

Changes:
This package includes fixes made on the NX Core component to solve problems like session startup failing when connecting from Ubuntu 8.10, incorrect mapping of keys when both client and server are running on Ubuntu Intrepid, failure to recognize keyboard model in Debian etch, and failure to start the session on Fedora 10 due to missing the "fixed" font.
