  Add in: deb http://www.datakeylive.com/ubuntu gutsy main
  sudo aptitude update

  sudo aptitude install expect openssh-server tcl8.4 nxlibs nxagent nxproxy freenx nxclient

  You’ll get a warning regarding unsigned packages; you do not have to worry. This is normal

  Add the authorised users for connecting under server NX:
  sudo nxserver –adduser toto

  Then modify the file /etc/nxserver/node.conf:
  Replace: #ENABLE_3_0_0_BACKEND=”0″
  By: ENABLE_3_0_0_BACKEND=”1″
  Replace: #DISPLAY_BASE=1000
  By: DISPLAY_BASE=1001
  Replace: #AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X=”"
  By: AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X=”-fp/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi”
  You can now use any client NX 3.0

  (Make your test of FreeNX 0.7.1-0 under Ubuntu 7.10 and NX 3.1.0-3 under Windows.)
  Note
  FreeNX 0.6.x servers are not compatible with clients NX 3.x..
