Dave:

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

Hans Höök

Title:
  libx11 causes kwin to crash on login (over NX protocol)

Status in X.Org X server:
  Confirmed
Status in “libxrandr” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “libxrandr” source package in Precise:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  xserver crash with kwin and NX

  [Test Case]

  install NX server, log in remotely using kde session

  [Regression Potential]

  small, patch has been in raring for a couple of weeks now without
  issues

  This behavior is 100% reproducible. I have freenx-server installed from here:
  https://launchpad.net/~freenx-team/+archive/ppa

  And am logging in from a remote machine with the newest nxclient from
  nomachine.org. What happens is that upon login or shortly thereafter,
  kwin crashes with a segfault. After restarting, it crashes at regular
  intervals as well.

  I reported a bug to the KDE4 tracker:
  https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=298370

  And it was marked a duplicate of a bug NOT related to NX:
  https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293209

  Judging from the backtrace, and from the comments in bug 293209, the
  problem is related to Xorg, and the people at KDE seem to think that
  the problem might even be Ubuntu 12.04 specific. So I decided to re-
  report the bug here and give you pointers to the relevant KDE
  bugreports.

  We are really desperate to get Kwin working under NX and are willing
  to test whatever you like!

  Many thanks in advance.
