Well, I have installed a version of freenx in FC10, but it is an old
one which I keep bringing forward because it works so incredibly
well that I'm afraid to try upgrading :-).

For fc10, I had to make an extra rpm to install the old libcrypto.so.0.9.8b
to satisfy the dependency in the ancient freenx-0.4.4-2.FC5.0.noarch.rpm
and nx-1.5.0-4.FC5.1.i386.rpm I continue to install.

And I keep going to all this trouble because it keeps working perfectly :-).

So if my ancient version works, probably a newer one works
(I'm just afraid to find out :-).
