[X2go-Dev] Can not use FreeNX alongside latest X2Go packages (was: Client-side printing not working (most likely due to the x2goserver-printing package being unavailable for installation))

Please try the NX packages from the heuler Repos. We have  
re-engineered building NX packages for Debian/Ubuntu. The heuler  
packages should be fully compatible with FreeNX. Though the  
nxagent/nxauth binaries are not yet tested.

If you encounter any problems with those, please report that here.

Ok... should not be needed with the NX packages in the heuler Repos.

 From what repos do you install FreeNX, I would like to cross-check  
your experience.

Yes, it is possible. Please give me the Deb-URLs for FreeNX so that I  
can cross-check.

Thanks,
Mike
