When I login using FreeNX, I get a box with two sessions. Either session ends up giving me an error:
NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 5200

Terminating does nothing. Creating new opens a black screen that closes soon after.
I don’t think my x configuration has anything to do with it but I have it setup with an EDID for headless solution to the nVidia problem:
Section "Monitor"
# HorizSync source: edid, VertRefresh source: edid
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Unknown"
ModelName "Sampo/STAC KDS VS-7p"
HorizSync 30.0 - 72.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "GeForce 7900 GS"
Option "CustomEDID" "CRT-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin
EndSection
Any help is greatly appreciated.
