Michael: You are not mistaken.  Sorry for the confusion.  Some day it

Bug description:
When trying to connect to a KDM process using XDMCP as described here by Fabian, the !M logo briefly appears but then the display stays dark indefinitely:

http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/freenx-knx/2006-March/003106.html

This still seems to have worked a few moths ago, but no more with nxagent 3.3.0-3-6-0freenxteam9 on Ubuntu Intrepid x86 (freenx-server 0.7.3+svn612-0freenxteam10):

Here's the nxagent -query 192.168.10.10 output after failure (X -query 192.168.10.10 works without problems, KDM greeter displayed):
