Well, I've gotten past this problem. I had to open the archive and change the Makefile.in. I added the -fPIC flag to the CXXFLAGS. I think this should only be done for AMD64 (from what I've read of PIC, it can cause performance issues on other architectures). NXComp now ebuilds cleanly for me (after hacking the nx-x11 ebuild stuff. That's a first for me). However, I now have run into a different issue. NXViewer won't build (as a part of NX-X11).

Created attachment 55361 [details, diff] Patches to the X11 library This patch creates and if-def for the x86_64. This allows the X11 library to be compiled on AMD64.
Created attachment 55363 [details, diff] Patches to the nxproxy ebuild Just adds the ~amd64 keyword. Not sure this is necessary.
Created attachment 55364 [details, diff] Patches to the nxserver-freenx ebuild Patch to add the ~amd64 keyword. Not sure this is necessary.
Well, I've gotten this bad boy to ebuild for me now. I created the necessary patches to get it to work for the AMD64 for everyone else. Can someone test this? It ebuilds, but whether or not it works, I haven't had time to try.
Hi, I don't have a working Gentoo/AMD64 system, so I can't test these patches (and therefore can't accept them safely into Portage atm). CC'ing the AMD64 arch team in the hope that someone there could test these patches for us. AMD64 team: please note that these patches will need testing on x86 as well before they can be added to the tree. Best regards, Stu
The nx-x11-1.4.0.ebuild-amd64.patch failed to apply for me when I was testing this: handel nx-x11 # patch -p1 < /root/nx-x11-1.4.0.ebuild-amd64.patch patching file nx-x11-1.4.0-r4.ebuild Hunk #1 FAILED at 21. 1 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file nx-x11-1.4.0-r4.ebuild.rej handel nx-x11 # This is due to the fact that somebody changed the ~ppc keyword to ppc in line 24 of the original ebuild sometime after this patch was created, which breaks the original context of this patch. This is easily fixed by modifying the patch, but I am just mentioning this to make you all aware of the issue. I am still testing this, will send another update in soon.
I finally got nx-x11 to build with the patches. However, the patch for the nx-x11 ebuild is missing inclusion of several of the patches which permit nx-x11 to build. I shall attach a modified version of the nx-x11 ebuild that fixes this.

I am unsure as to the origin of nxclient.
Ah, I see nxclient is built separately, in net-misc/nxclient. Perhaps the ebuild should have a RDEPEND line for this?
nxclient seems to be a precompiled 32-bit binary. This is problematic on amd64, as the 32-bit libraries for NX do not exist: handel ~ # ldd /usr/NX/bin/nxclient linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libqt-mt.so.3 => not found libXext.so.6 => not found libX11.so.6 => not found libpthread.so.0 => /lib32/libpthread.so.0 (0x55585000) libstdc++.so.5 => not found libm.so.6 => /lib32/libm.so.6 (0x555d8000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/32/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x555fb000) libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0x55604000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x55555000) handel ~ # My 32-bit chroot is broken, so I do not have an easy way to build the 32-bit versions of the libraries here. It would be best if someone could compile a 64-bit version of nxclient and/or nxproxy for amd64. I am unable to test this much further on amd64, due to this issue.
Disregard my previous note, the missing 32-bit libraries seem to be standard C++ and X11/Qt libraries. I have emerged the appropriate emul-linux-* packages to continue testing this. I still stand by my previous comment, though -- having 64-bit precompiled binaries of things like nxclient would be preferable on amd64.
OK, I was finally able to bring up nxclient at attempt to connect to the TestDrive server at testdrive.nomachine.com, port 22. However, after nxclient authenticates to my testdrive account, it dies with a "proxy libraries not found" message. I am not sure what these proxy libraries are, nor how to obtain them. I do have the nxproxy program emerged, though I am not sure if this is what the nxclient utility is looking for. I think I have gone about as far as I can go without additional intervention from the NX team. I am a newbie to NX, so I would welcome any advice or suggestions on where to go from here, insofar as testing NX on amd64 goes.
While I'm adding me to the cc list, I'll also offer some testing. I'm no dev, but I have an amd64 box. Willing to test stuff if anyone wants.

Hey! What a pity I didn't see this bug before (I was looking for some other nx component), because I duplicated the fixes for the nx-x11 ebuild). The fixes I did were basically the same (-fPIC for Makefile.in for nxcomp and nxcompext and #define fixing in XlcDL.c). I've successfuly tested the "remote" part of these packages on amd64: when using a x86 local display server. This means: - I emerged nx-x11 and a modified (add amd64) nxproxy at my remote amd64 machine. - I emerged nx-x11, nxproxy, xclient and dependencies at my local x86 machine. - I ran in remote machine: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/NX/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH nxproxy -C :8 & - I ran in local machine: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/NX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH nxproxy -S remote_machine:8 & - I ran in remote machine: DISPLAY=:8 xclock & And this worked (I mean the I got the remote xclock to display localy through nxproxy). I think that in this direct, successful connection, nxclient didn't get executed (so it's not needed perhaps?). Sorry, but I don't know nx technology too well, so excuse my flaky reports... What I mean is that if this combination worked, at least (for me) these two packages I used at the remote machine (nxproxy and nx-x11) are working with these fixes.
Apparently there are many problems with nx on amd64, so I'd prefer to no keyword it for now until somebody provides a patch which also fixes the segfaults and other errors. thanks for your efforts though!
