I can see no way how this could work.

If you don't want a local X11 Server then tell xdm not to start one. If you don't \
want to login without using nx, don't start xdm (or whatever you use). nx doesn't \
need it.

The 'backing' desktop is created by nxproxy if i understood that right. It has \
nothing to do with a already running X11 Server started by xdm.
