On RHEL 10, creating a virtual desktop may not be possible
RHEL 10 dropped the /etc/X11/Xsession script used by NoMachine to start the desktop. A possible workaround is to specify to launch the desktop through D-Bus.
To do that, edit /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg and change from:
DefaultDesktopCommand "/etc/X11/Xsession default"
to:
DefaultDesktopCommand "dbus-run-session gnome-session"
As an alternative, install another desktop environment compatible with X11 like MATE or XFCE.
