NX 3.3.0 on the build queue on my PPA:

1 week of testing before going to freenx-team ppa.
Needs FreeNX >= 0.7.3+svn612-0freenxteam9.

Let me know your experiences.

Troubleshooting:

If "$ xprop -root | grep XKB" prints "_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING)" != "_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING)",
probably gnome is overriding the settings created by nx session:
"$ gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd"
this will make gnome use NX settings.

If up-arrow triggers screen shot then:
"$ killall metacity"
this will force metacity to update to the new keycodes.

If you have 2 different layouts and gnome-keyboard switcher don't work, then:
$ setxkbmap -layout "us,br"
This will make gnome reload the layout settings from nxagent.
