Hi. Please try to start the player with the
--activegraboption, by running the command/usr/NX/bin/nxplayer --activegrabIf it helps you can either create a link to the player to always add that option, or you can edit the file
$HOME/.nx/config/player.cfgand set the configuration key “Enable active keyboard grabbing” to “true”.Hi. What is the Windows version running on the computer where you try to change shortcuts?
Did you try to register multiple different shortcuts, and none of them work? There is a chance that some key combinations are already used by the Operating System, so NoMachine can’t take over it.About changing the host resolution, if you want to avoid that behaviour you should be sure to disable the Display option “Resize remote display” and never select the radios “Resize the remote display…” in the Display resolution welcome panel.
Hi. About the credentials saving issue, do you connect to the server through an automatically discovered server item, or did you manually configure the connection by setting the server IP? If you’re not sure open the context menu by right clicking the connection item, and check if the “remove connection” menu entry exists or not.
PS: I’m discussing the connection dropping in the other thread you’ve opened, to better split the topics.
Hi. Does the disconnection occur as soon as you minimize the window, or after some time? Is the window disappearing when you minimize it, or it stays open with an error explaining the disconnection reason? In the latter case, what is the error?
PS: I’m going to ask for details about the username/password problem in your other thread, to better split the topics.
We’ve found a problem with the Magic/Smart Keyboard, the device still reports it as available also when it gets disconnected, so the app behaviour is unexpected. Can you confirm if this could be your case? If it is so, restarting the device when this happens causes the keyboard status to be reset and fixes the NoMachine app issue.
However we didn’t reproduce the pinch gesture problem, could you share additional details? It doesn’t work at all, so pinching in/out is just ignored?Hi. Do you mind sending whole logs directory where you’ve found that file to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com? We might need also server side logs, but let’s try to grab as much info as possible from the client first. Thanks.
You could contact us at forum[at]nomachine[dot]com if you want to get a binary fixing the issue. We’ve documented it here:
Hi. Can you please send for debugging client side logs (%USERPROFILE%\.nx) and the output of the command
xrandr -qexecuted in a session, after trying to enable the multiple monitors fullscreen? Mail everything to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Thanks.Hi. I’m testing Manjaro 20.2:
– Copy the original .desktop file with
cp /usr/share/applications/NoMachine-player-base.desktop ~/Desktop/nomachine-session.desktop
– Change Exec line of new .desktop by adding the option"--session <name>"
– Double click the .desktop file to start the session
– Right click the NoMachine icon in the task bar and select “Pin”From now on any new nxplayer icon is grouped with the one I’ve pinned in the bar.
Could you share how you’re doing it?Hi, sorry for the delay. The most effective way to correctly reset the desktop resolution consists in doing it when all clients are disconnected. However if you want to change it without disconnecting, just open the Display menu panel and select a different resolution.
Hi. On some Chromebook models the Android container freezes because it doesn’t really like our app! 🙂 If you can sideload an APK get in touch with us at forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, so we can send a testing version. However we’re completely focused on an update to our mobile version, so expect the fix to be released soon.
Hey there! This is an old problem we solved, but some OS changes caused it to pop up again. Please try this: enter Settings > General > Keyboard and turn off Smart Punctuation.
We’re completely focused on a new mobile version now, so expect a fix for it to be released soon.Hi jhusker. What’s the output of the command
id <your username>executed in Terminal?I only want to use the client feature on this laptop.
You can read this article to know how to disable the server from Terminal:
Whenever server status display “Server is not running”, NoMachine’s services (nxplayer.bin and nxclient.bin) open port and listen incoming connections.
If we want just to use it as a client, why do NoMachine have to listen connection ?
When there are no sessions running (i.e. you’re not connected to a NoMachine server), nxplayer and nxclient open ports listening only on localhost interface so they won’t accept connections from external IPs. They’re used for inter-process communication through authenticated connections and execute only user level operations.
If one or more sessions are running, some ports could be required by services. You can read detailed information here:
