Ok, thanks for the information. The nxagent is the current version, that's ok. Also I think we take out the client from the equation. I have just tried your reproducer with LibreOffice 6.4.7.2 on RockyLinux 8.10 in a rootless NX session without any problems. Maybe this is tied to newer LibreOffice versions? You can also do a very lightweight test locally like this: 1. run nxagent -ac :55 2. DISPLAY=:55 openbox (or any other WM) 3. DISPLAY=:55 soffice -> will open soffice in the nx window. Is the problem showing up then, too? Maybe we need more debugging information which would require to recompile nxagent on your server system.
