Thank you Ryan for helping to resolve this problem. I've been waiting anxiously for this problem being fixed because it's the main reason I cannot start using 14.04 (and have to use 12.04) on a lot of systems.
I have a question - do you see any problems using original NX software with this solution. For mostly historical reasons I've been using original NX software (NX 3 from NoMachine) and have their client software installed on quite a few computers. Thank you, Michael.
