 ==== Is X2Go compatible with NoMachine's NX or freeNX? ====

 (This FAQ article has been written by Mike Gabriel, if someone does not agree with the given information on NoMachine, please be so kind to contact me, so that we can discuss it and possibly correct errors in the given information).
+==== Why are you using the terms "nx-libs" and "NX libraries" when X2Go uses the 2 executables nxproxy & nxagent?  ====
+Basically:
+  - That is the term that was always used.
+  - Libraries are created also from the source package.
+  - Those libraries define the NX protocol.
+Note that originally, "nx-libs" was not a single git repo. Instead, it was 7 separate tarballs:
+  - nxcomp
+  - nxcompext
+  - nxcompshad
+  - nxproxy
+  - nxagent
+  - nxauth
+  - nx-X11
+Only the 1st 3 are libraries.
+Having separate tarballs made maintenance more difficult, so they were combined into one as the X2Go project started redistributing them.
 ==== What is the difference to LTSP? Why a free thin client environment? ====

 Further bonuses of X2Go are that you can pause a desktop session and take it to a different thin client for further use.
