# Citrix Receiver 11.1 for Linux ARM Version, .tar.gz (try [http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/downloads/details.asp?downloadId=3323&productId=186&c1=sot2755 this direct link], but it's easily found anyhow.)

# [[Extras-devel]] enabled - this is only needed for [http://maemo.org/packages/view/dbus-switchboard/ dbus-switchboard]. The usual disclaimers apply, please read the wiki page. Also make sure you have the default Repositories "Nokia Applications" and "Nokia System Software Updates" set up and enabled.

# [http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libmotif3 libmotif3] and [http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libxp6 libxp6] from the Debian Squeeze ARM repository - this is only required for the Connection Manager, if you don't plan on using it, you can skip these. The client works just as well without them and you'll save some precious space (around 1,2 MB) on your [[Rootfs]]. Be sure to get the armel packages!

Confirm the next question by entering "y". This way, the installation will reside on the larger <code>/opt</code> partition and not fill up your rootfs.

Say "n" to the other questions, they won't work anyways, and no reason in letting the script change some non-existent (because non-Maemo) places.

Then create a "new Xref" the same way, type in <code>.ica</code> as protocol and select "Icaclient" as handler. Finally, select "save" from the menu to write your changes. There is probably a more scriptable solution, feel free to add it if you know!

To switch back to your Maemo session, you have to press the power button and select "phone" from the menu.
 
I have the best experience on XenApp Servers (under Windows Server 2008) in a Fullscreen session, with the on-screen keyboard set to start automatically. This way you have a full 800x480 desktop, and you can use the "properties" key as a sort of right-click substitute. It's a bit clunky but better than nothing :)
