That might turn out to be a good hint. Now, this is going to be a shot in the dark but you may want to try the following.

Open the /usr/bin/nxnode file in a text editor.
Find the line:
[code]
echo "Xft.dpi: 96" | DISPLAY=:$display xrdb -merge >>"$USER_FAKE_HOME/.nx/C-$sess_id/session" 2>&1
[/code]
at around line 331. Then add the next line [b]before[/b] that line.
[code]
sleep 4
[/code]

I picked up the above potential fix from a post on the [url=https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/freenx-knx]FreeNX-kNX mailing list[/url]. In fact that relates to my next suggestion -- post to that list. There is a knowledgeable person who can answer almost all questions. :-)
