    NX> 700 Running: /bin/chmod 744 ‘/usr/NX/scripts/restricted/nxusb.sh’.
    NX> 700 Running: /bin/chmod u+s ‘/usr/NX/scripts/restricted/nxusb.sh’.

    Please help me.
    I’m using free version of NoMachine. My local computer is Ubuntu 18.04 and gcc version is 7.4. I’m connecting Windows10 and the other services work fine. Thank you.

    Hi,

    Considering some changes in the latest kernel codes, it is necessary to apply a patch to build nxusb.ko on that version of the kernel. We can send it to you if you agree.

    One of the next releases of NoMachine will include this patch.

    I would be interested in trying this patch, please. I have the exact same problem, Ubuntu 18.04, NoMachine 6.8.1.

    Please update to the latest version release a couple of days ago. It contains the patch. Full announcement here: https://www.nomachine.com/SU12Q00208

    Ah, I hadn’t noticed the release of 6.9.2 – that seems to work for me. Thank you.
