I don't know. The commercial original version from nomachine.org

FreeNX is dead, it's probably right.

Hi there!
I do not understand the numbering of my hard drives. There may be some
inherent logic, but whenever I make some changes, like replacing drives,
or changing BIOS settings, the order changes. Maybe it's even more random.
So I made some udev rules like this, and my drives are called /dev/h
