I do not know the answer to your question.
What I did do was (as agenkin) install the libxrandr2 packages from Raring.

# dpkg -l | grep libxra
ii libxrandr-dev 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 X11 RandR extension library (development headers)
ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 X11 RandR extension library
ii libxrandr2:i386 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 X11 RandR extension library
ii libxrandr2-dbg 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 X11 RandR extension library (debug package)
ii libxrandr2-dbg:i386 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 X11 RandR extension library (debug package)

This (unfortuanately) does not prevent freeNX from freenx-team PPA ftom crashing with KDE.

How do I apply the patch you are referring to?

Timo:

# apt-cache policy libxrandr2
libxrandr2:
  Installerad: 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1
  Kandidat: 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1
  Versionstabell:
 *** 2:1.4.0-1ubuntu1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2:1.3.2-2 0
        500 http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages

I am a bit confused here....
.... test _without_ the backport stack ...

What am I missing out on?
How do I get the fixed libs into my 64bit Ubuntu 12.04?

It seems I am *very* close to getting this working and since NX has been one of my best friends
and I've been using it since before Ubuntu 6.06 ... without any major issues, I am indeed grateful
for any help!

Regards
