Garbled File Manager display

[jamat13]

Long story short:

I have a mid 2011 imac27, High Sierra. Latest NoMachine version.

I installed various Linux distros on it but often the NoMachine display is utterly garbled and pixelated.

I reinstalled High Sierra

Both my backup (which did work) and a new install show File Manager display !!!

Clicking any entry shows the usual (icon) display. Choosing any host shows File Manager. Clicking any entry shows the usual target, un-garbled.

What might be done about the linux display? If it was l library issue, as suggested by Google, would the display be always garbled. Often ‘quit’ and ‘restart’ fixes the garbled display.

“I installed various Linux distros on it but often the NoMachine display is utterly garbled and pixelated.”

This part is not clear.

We are not aware of NoMachine issues installing on Sierra, everything installs fine, and the NoMachine interface is not garbled. Or do you mean you get this “garbled” effect showing when you connect to a remote desktop? So in the session window? But you mention your File Manager, so could that possibly mean you have some nxs files there, but they are not showing correctly?

Can you send some screenshots (to our email address at forum@..) showing the garbled effect you are seeing? This will help us to understand better.

This is Linux running on imac27. From other machines client display is normal

I reinstalled High Sierra
I re-installed NoMachine
The problem of File Manager not NoMachine into screen is no longer there
Twas bizarre but no point in wasting time over some strange behaviour

It would have been useful to have mentioned that you were running Virtual Box 😉 We will never know what was the exact cause but it is likely not related to NoMachine.
