    @Brisn, thanks for this additional information about how to reproduce the problem. Every extra bit of information can be useful, especially in this particular because there are three possible ways for a computer to become idle: 1) the monitor enters sleep mode to save energy 2) you close the lid on your macbook/laptop  3) there is a full system sleep where we can only try to wake it with WoL (wake on lan).

    this should (to me) be a somewhat simple fix to make but it seems to have been lying out there unaddressed for years……it’s almost as if the developers don’t fully use their own software enough in the real world to experience these annoying deficiencies for themselves…

    Have you had this problem on Intel as well? M1 only came out last November. Successfully diagnosing a problem and then finding an effective solution can sometimes be a long process, however, I don’t recall *unresolved* problems with NoMachine waking up Intel Macs/Macbooks/Mac (i.e if there have been problems in previous versions, they’ve been resolved). “Deficiencies” can be interpreted as missing features and in that case, we certainly welcome feedback on how to improve and add value to the product.

    On the connecting device try disabling MDNS. You can do this by going to Settings / Player / Security and unchecking the box “Don’t show other computers on the local network”.

    “Is there any software that will create a dummy display?”

    Not that we are aware of. I would go for the dummy adapter.

    We’ve tried installing NoMachine on a variety of Windows XP hosts and can’t reproduce the issue you are encountering.

    I would download again from our website and reinstall from scratch (you must remove all traces of the earlier installation from your computer) and make note of the MD5 signature of the package. Then, using an external tool such as http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/, you could check whether the MD5 signature is being corrupted in someway.

    Unfortunately you won’t be able to use NVENC because you have a GTX 460 which is based on Fermi architecture.
    NVENC was introduced by Nvidia on Kepler architecture. It was introduced with the GeForce 600 series.

    More info about Nvenc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_NVENC

    There is now a Trouble Report documenting this issue.

    NoMachine does not work correctly after installing on Windows XP 64 bit
    https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/TR07S10323

    It will be released in the next software update.

    Removing panels is easy. Just click on any panel, go to settings and there you should have a dropdown list.

    However, your problem seems to be unrelated to NoMachine software. If those boxes are visible even when you are not using a NoMachine remote desktop session, you should really ask in the Xfce forums.

    Or do those boxes visible only appear when you are in a NoMachine session?

    “I changed it on one server and it apparently changed it on all my servers. It has not made any difference.”

    This is not clear. You shouldn’t be changing anything in Server Settings. Disabling HW decoding is generally done from within the NoMachine session.

    If you start a connection in the regular way, you then open the connection menu (Ctrl-Alt-0) from within the session and select ‘Display’ and then ‘Change settings’.

    Click modify and check the box “disable hardware decoding” (check this guide for an example https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/DT10R00167#5.8).

    Please provide clear steps of the problem related to NoMachine software (assuming this is a web-based session).

    Hi, at first I thought it might be nested sessions which was causing the problem, but it works for us with VirtualBox 🙂 From Mac to Win VM, start a new session and connect to Mac, (we had to enable grab keyboard in the NoMachine player before starting the session from the Win VM).

    With VMware it doesn’t work because basically VMware changes cmd to Ctrl , so it appears to be more of a problem with VMware? We tried with Fusion as well, cmd+N works, but cmd+C, cmd+V are transferred as ctrl+(C/V).

    Not sure what the issue is with your installation or system configuration (cifs?), but we tested on-the-fly with Pardus and it works fine. What NoMachine errors are you seeing when trying to install or connect?

    The NoMachine GUI is an integral part of every NoMachine server package, because it is not just a client but also an interface for server administration. Since a client is never automatically started unless the user does it, it has never been a problem. However if you need to configure an environment where users cannot start NoMachine connections from a machine working as a server, you could try to change the permissions of the ‘nxplayer’ binary to remove executable flags.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration decoding. This is similar to another topic. Try the workaround there.

    Select that icon and click ‘Edit’ and check what IP is being used. Check that this is the correct IP address just to make sure. Show me what you see.

    If it’s correct, it could be a non-native firewall installed on the server perhaps? Disable it temporarily to test connecting without the firewall.
