Hello,
as yet we haven’t made public an exact time frame or date of the release of version 8. It’s currently in its final stages and we’ll publish any news right here in this forum 😉
Try disabling the ‘Use acceleration for display processing’ option in the Server settings -> Performance panel on the Windows machine.
I would like not to have the choice at all, as my machines are actually machines used by my folks who do not care about accidentally selecting the wrong session type. So how do I get rid of the unwanted desktop environments?
You will have to do that at the system level, this is not something you set in NoMachine. For example, https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=151924, or you can just set auto login, again at the system level. The OpenSuse user forums will be the best place to ask that question.
You can modify the server.cfg (/usr/NX/etc/ directory on Linux) to prevent resizes:
PhysicalDesktopMode 1
# 1: Restricted. User connected to the physical desktop can
# interact with the desktop except for resize operations.Try this and let us know.
NoMachine’s cfg files are in /usr/NX/etc/ and notin /etc/NX/server/localhost/server.cfg.
/etc/NX/server/localhost/server.cfg should not be edited by users. Remove the line:
ServerSlaveBase 30000from that file and add it to /usr/NX/etc/server.cfg.
You can find more about the server and node.cfg files here: https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/AR02N00877.
Check your inbox Zardoc. I have sent you a link for a debug package with some instructions on what logs to gather.
Hi,
we have checked Ubuntu 18.04 and don’t have any issues, with its default installation, that is. I don’t know if you have changed something or not. Have you tried uninstalling NoMachine and removing the /usr/NX directory before reinstalling? What’s the GUI you are using? Check with:
grep ^Exec /usr/share/xsessions/*.desktopThe current version of NoMachine is now 7.8.2.
I’m going to send you a link to download the debug package. You should install the package in the normal way, reproduce the problem, gather logs as you have already done and then send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com.
I am not sure if I have understood your set-up. But if your test set-ups of both the free version of NoMachine and NoMachine Workstation are now working, that’s good news.
Just to clarify that we need the logs from the problematic “older Mac”. We didn’t receive anything so far.
Regarding the request for a refresh button (of what, discovery?) On the player side, the “discovery” of other NoMachine hosts on the network is a process that is always on, in the background, so a refresh button would add very little benefit in terms of time that it currently takes to discover the other NoMachine computers on LAN.
On the server side, you can access the server from !M icon in the system tray. ‘Show server status’ and then “Restart the server”. It’s 2 or 3 clicks. What was your request for “refresh” referring to?
What we need to do is understand why the “old Mac” is no longer publishing itself on the LAN.
Uninstalling the software does not remove the user’s home in case you want to save some configuration or connection files. Those can be removed by hand. If you uninstall Workstation it’s also the same.
We’ll need the logs from the computer you are connecting to (server-side). Please follow the instructions for Windows in the document here: https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/DT11R00182#1
1) enable debug
2) reproduce the problem
3) gather the logsI’ve pasted some of the content here of that document.
To enable debug on Windows, open a CMD console as administrator and move to the ‘bin’ folder under the NoMachine installation, e.g:
cd %ProgramFiles(x86)%\NoMachine\bin nxserver --debug --enable allThe log archive is named as: NoMachine-log-<timestamp>.zip (e.g. NoMachine-log-2018.09.27-11.44.01.zip) and stored in: %PROGRAMDATA%/NoMachine/var/log/archives on Windows 10, 8.x, 7 and Vista or in Documents and Settings/All Users/NoMachine/var/log/archives Windows XP.
Please submit them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com making sure to reference the topic’s title. Thanks!
I see two mouse cursors.Does this happen when you use a specific application or in all activities (desktop, all programs and use)?
Check that the box “Use acceleration for display processing” is not ticked. To do this, on the computer that you are connecting to, go to Server -> Performance -> 4th box must not be flagged.
Hi, I’m not sure whether you saw our last reply. What I advise you to do, if you have not done so already, is update both sides to the latest version 7.8.2 and if you are still seeing the problem, submit the logs again, including the Player side logs. Another option is that we send you a debug version based on 7.8.2 with further instructions.
This is a known issue. The workaround is to change the current active window on your local desktop before going back to the player window.
