I think I know what the problem is - I should add an article to my
website.

Anyway, you say you're running FC6 on the client you're connecting from.
FC6 loads the "composite" extension for the X server by default.  The NX
client doesn't like it: the result is exactly what you're seeing.

Disable the composite extension in xorg.conf, and restart the X server.
After you do, try logging into your remote NX session again.  Your
window manager should be back.

Hi Ranbir,

Adding the sequence

	Section "Extensions"
    		Option "Composite" "Disable"
	EndSection

at the end of /etc/X11/xorg.conf solved my problem: now the windowmanager in the remote CentOS NX session starts correctly when GNOME is used.

Many thanks.
