[SOLVED] FreeNX missing characters

Hi,

whenever I reconnect to a suspended session (linux to linux), my remote desktop, menu and some windows are kind of empty.  Look here :

I read that suspend is a bit buggy, and there are people seeing square brackets where characters should be.  But this seems to me something else.  Anyone have any idea? I looked througt the server and session logs and no errors are mentioned.

Thx

Re: [SOLVED] FreeNX missing characters

This is exactly the resume issue caused by new cairo. You can disable the render extension in the servers node.conf. See our wiki page.

Thx.  I'll see to it now and mark post as solved after test

This fixed it. Thanks for your direction

Broken resume with Cairo 1.12.x

Latest cairo updates broke the render extension. After resuming a session all characters from before suspending won't get rendered. To fix this add this single line to /etc/nxserver/node.conf

AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X="-norender"
