      One of the nice things I discovered is that 3.5.99 works with both x2go
and freenx-server so I can make things work for customers who have purchased
the nx client as well or are using opennx.  I have some clients who prefer to
run antique operating systems, windows xp, ubuntu 12.04, etc, so it is nice
to have that backwards compatibility for those who prefer to remain backwards.

      I did not have the problem with OpenSuse 13.2 or 42.1, but when I did the
recent distribution upgrade to 42.2 it broke (got the little tiny screen).
I can manually set the resolution with xrandr just as was the case with the
debian derived machines.  I tend to keep things very current, so I'm probably
one of the early adopters of 42.2.  And OpenSuse doesn't seem to be hugely
popular amoung my clients anyway so it's not super urgent.
