this seems to be a duplicate of

https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/161

It would be really helpful, if you could test this with a non-X2Go  
based NX session.

How to achieve this:

  1) Adapt to your setup/needs: [1]
  2) Launch VcXsrv on Windows machine
  3) launch nxagent session on Linux server
  4) Launch KDE4 inside the NX session
  5) Launch nxproxy on the windows client as shown by [1]
  6) Test if the same issue occurs as observed with X2Go Client

I seem to remember that there is some Window-size manipulation code in  
X2Go Client somewhere when built on MS Win, so that might be obsolete  
with NX 3.6.

Mike
