Hi Paul,
what happens if you change the statement to say:
exit 0
instead of exit 1? No did not help, still get black screen on the nxclient. Only out-commenting/deleting helps.
Cheers, Jesper

Hi,
After upgrading our workstations to phenix v1.4-3, the user started having problems connecting to the machines through nxclient. The login ended up with a black screen on the client and absolutely no error messages on neither client nor server.
The problem seemed to come from setting up the global environment for phenix (phenix_env.sh). I narrowed the problematic statement down to this:
if [ "$PHENIX_MTYPE" = "unknown-unknown" ]; then exit 1 fi
Although "$PHENIX_MTYPE" = "intel-linux-2.6-x86_64" when logged in, somehow the "nx user" gets "$PHENIX_MTYPE" = "unknown-unknown" when it logs in, through it's authorization key, to establish the users session.
To make a already to long story short. The problem can be fixed by commenting out the problematic statement above.
And one question to the developers:
Could this be avoided in the future? Perhaps give a warning instead off exiting completly!
Sincerely Jesper
