After last update i have little problem, what is shown on picture below.

There is nothing on the exit screen and choosing action (close/leave session) dialog. I've reinstalled NXclient with no effect. Thank you in advance for help.

I was seeing the same thing on my setup at home for a while. I was suspending the user from the cli. It was a nuisance but it was just my home machine so I didn't bother with it too much. It would have been a real pain if it was a deployment at work. I created a launcher with the command in it and then decided to go looking for the answer.

I've used freenx on other setups (FreeBSD, Ubuntu, etc.) so I know the popup uses either xmessage or xdialog depending on the setup. I had neither installed so I installed xmessage but that didn't fix it. I then installed xdialog and now it works like it's supposed to.

I just noticed that we are both using XFCE4 and wonder if maybe it's xfce thing or if there's not a lot of Arch users using FreeNX (or haven't gone to the affected update yet).

Do you have xdialog installed? If you don't then does installing it manually fix it?

sorry, the "without" was a little bit confusing i think.

yes, i installed both xdialog and xorg-xmessage without any effect.

make sure you installed it server-side

thx armin, installing xdialog on the server solved the problem.
