Hi DiaNobb, both your computers are on the same LAN, so you can use the IP address of the target machine to connect, although if your two computers are on the same LAN, they should be able to see each other. Do you see the “No computers were found on your local network” message when you are in the Machines panel on both computers, or just on the one? We aren’t aware of issues with broadcasting, but could it be that you have a VPN running or a firewall blocking our multicast. So, please check that.
Starting a manual connection is simple. In ‘Name’ you can use anything you like, it’s not obligatory 🙂 If you don’t insert a name. one will be inserted for you, by default it is “Connection to xx.x.x.xx”. In ‘Host’ insert the local IP address of the target machine. This is obligatory.
To know the IP address, go to the target machine, click on the !M icon in the system tray and click ‘Show server status’. Take a look at Fig. 2 in the following guide to see an example of what you will see: https://www.nomachine.com/support/documents/getting-started-with-nomachine#local. The URL to use in the example is nx://192.168.1.4:4000.
Make a note of your IP, go back to the computer you want to connect from, open the Machines panel and insert the IP address, or the complete URL, into the Search machines field and press Enter. Or, like you did, you can click ‘Add’ and insert the IP address in the ‘Host’ field.
Just for the record, that particular image in the guide is also showing a Machine Id because the computer is on NoMachine Network and so can be reached using the Machine Id over the Internet, from outside the LAN. If you’ve just signed up for a NoMachine account, you have a free 7-day Personal Evaluation available to try if you’re interested connecting to your computers from outside your LAN.
Hi zubi, thanks for reporting this. We are investigating why you were unable to download. All links appear to be functioning correctly now. Can you try again and let us know?
Hi, strange. We are unaware of specific problems with broadcasting of NoMachine servers, but in the past we have had a couple of users who have reported a similar behaviour and that in turned out that a rule of VPN software was blocking the broadcast of messages. Could this be your case? (https://forum.nomachine.com/topic/discovery-doesnt-work-for-macbook-pro-does-for-other-macbook#post-50842)
Hi timo, this is the same issue as Ubuntu 25.10 and using the default desktop environment Gnome 49 with Xorg removed. We are actively working on a permanent solution for users wanting to connect to the virtual display on Gnome 49.
We have an article about this here:
Ubuntu 25.10 Questing Quokka drops Xorg/X11 support, what this means for NoMachine users.
https://kb.nomachine.com/AR10W01330.The same tips written there for Ubuntu 25 users can apply to your case with Fedora.
If you still need to run virtual sessions, alternative temporary solutions are:
1. Install another desktop environment compatible with X11, such as MATE, KDE Plasma or XFCE.
2. Use an earlier version of GNOME, prior to version 49, which still supports Xorg.
3. Use an earlier version of Fedora.
I am pasting what you have written above
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver –-uninstalland now I’m pasting what the command is in our guide
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --uninstallI see a slight difference in the ‘-‘ you are using. I don’t know if that is an error in the paste and how it shows in our forum or if you copied from your terminal. But please check this. If you don’t use the right command, the output you show is expected.
Sorry I pasted the command to use for non-default locations. Here are the commands, again, from the guide I previously linked.
UNINSTALL
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --uninstallthen, remove the installation directory:
sudo rm -rf /usr/NXThe stack dump says that libnx fails to read or create the user NoMachine folder, and because of that, it aborts and causes the process to close. Can you send the
%USERPROFILE%\.nx\R-*logs? In there we might find more details about what’s happening.Hi, when you say “update” do you mean an update of NoMachine or a Windows update? Can you tell us the specific build version of the Win 11 host?
PopOS is based on Ubuntu, so it should not be that different. The only issue we are aware of is on the latest Ubuntu 25, virtual display sessions are not possible because Ubuntu has removed support for Xorg. See this article for reference: http://www.nomachine.com/AR10W01330.
Screenshots or images which show the problem would be useful.For uninstall instructions, take a look at the installation guide: https://kb.nomachine.com/DT07S00245#2.7
sudo /opt/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver –uninstall
Then, remove the installation dir:
sudo rm -rf /opt/NX

We’ll post any updated information about available native packages for ARM on these forums. Work has already started 😉
Hi, thanks for the logs. We can see a crash of nxnode:
3245 3245 2025-10-21 08:48:00 759.364 NXSERVER WARNING! Process '/usr/NX/bin/nxexec --node --nopam --user agt --priority realtime --mode 0 --pid 53' with pid '5816/5816' finished with exit code 11 after 735,372 seconds.The logs, though, were missing the agent/node components, which would tell us why the nxnode is crashing. Are you able to send us the full logs? You can extract them using the instructions here: https://kb.nomachine.com/DT08U00298. Please follow the steps for extracting through the UI.
Also look for a core file or a crash report from nxnode and send the backtrace to us. Instructions on how to do that are here: https://kb.nomachine.com/AR09L00810. You can attach everything here or send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Thanks!
Hello,
adding an option to swap Control and Command modifiers on the remote desktop was implemented in 9.0.188. Are you using v9 on both client and server sides?
The new option is added in connection menu -> Input. You can see a screenshot in “Guide to the Functionality in the Menu Panel on Windows”. The label is “Map Ctrl to Cmd and Win to Ctrl”. When this option is not enabled, instead, the user has to use the remote modifier for applying keyboard shortcuts inside the NoMachine session.
Hi, thanks for the logs provided. We found an issue (not the same one as TR06W11409 mentioned above) that could cause a crash of the nxserver daemon process and we are already working on fix. You can use this link to monitor its status: https://kb.nomachine.com/TR10W11608.
