[X2Go-User] NX lib path issue prevents Xubuntu 11.10 sessions from starting

[christoffer krakou]

Hello everyone

I have managed to come up with a somewhat simple fix for this issue, 
that works for every desktop. I edited the $HOME/.bashrc file on the 
server to change the following:

1. comment out the line that says
	# If not running interactively, don't do anything
	[ -z "$PS1" ] && return
to make the bashrc run during ssh also
2. append "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/nx/X11" to 
the end of the file.

This works on a per-user basis. putting the line in /etc/profile dosnt 
make it work globally.
