Re: LTSP5 - what is best mini-its motherboard to use?

Having researched this, I understand it is caused by the upgraded via-rhine drivers in LTSP-5. We never
had the problem in LTSP-4 (or LTSP-3!!) because we used older drivers in our pxe boot files...

Any information would be really useful as it is a real pain for our users.  

Don't know what mobo you've got, as you didn't say, however...

If you've got the EPIA 5000 series motherboard (with the via eden
chipset), you need the latest bios update, fro their site.  I had the
same problem with mine, the update fixed it.

Re: ltsp is stuck (Jean-Yves F. Barbier)


Hi Alejandro,

I use Debian Etch too and yes, I also need some manual steps.

Maybe you need a special zpxe - file for your thin client? 
For example: I got a neoware e140. It works with this configuration in 
dhcpd.conf:

host x04 {
   hardware ethernet     XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX;
   fixed-address         192.168.0.54;
   next-server 192.168.0.11;
   if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient" {
                    filename "/ltsp/i386/eb-5.4.3-via-rhine.zpxe";
                    }
   else if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "Etherboot" {
                      filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";
                      }
}

You can get the *.zpxe files from http://rom-o-matic.net/

Local Device: USB CDRW not detected

Hi,,

I've been using local devices with LTSP 4.2/Mandriva Linux 2007.0 quite
happily for a while. It detects the local CDROM, amd (so far) all the USB
memory devices that I've plugged in. 

However, it totally ignores my LG USB CDRW with a blank CD, nor does it
detect a pre-recorded CD. The server detects both blank and pre-recorded CDs
immediately if I plug in the device there.

I can see the device in /etc/fstab on the WS.

Does LTSP local devices not support CDRW or is there something I can do to
fix this. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Iirc kcontrol, running on the server, examines the files in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules to find out the capabilities of the
X-server and creates a setxkbmap command when you choose some
options. Somehow (presumably by some query of the X-server) kcontrol
knows that you are running a xorg X-server on your display and only
looks for the xorg.* xkb-rules and finds none.

Where are GDM logs for clients?

In /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf, I have set "LogDir=/var/log/gdm"

However the only log files in that dir are related to console logins.  I 
can't find log files related to thinclients.  

What entries control logging for remote X clients?  This is driving me 
crazy.  I'm trying to debug logon issues and I can't find any debugging 
output.

Re: Where are GDM logs for clients?

You can find some info on the client.  Either set 'SCREEN_01 = shell' in lts.conf, and 
then, which will boot the client but not start X, leaving you at a command prompt; or 
set 'SCREEN_02 = shell', and then once X is running on the client, press Ctrl-F2 to get 
to the command prompt on the client.  In either case, you can find some log files 
related to the client's boot under /tmp, I think.  You can also run dmesg.

Starting second X session to another server

Hi folks,

As far as I remember, when I assembled our first LTSP server, I used

X -query <host-IP>:1

to start a second X session on my PC to the new server in order to 
configure it.

Later I could do away my desktop PC and now I have an LTSP terminal like 
all the others.

For our new server, I would like to do it the same way. Is it possible 
from an LTSP terminal, or will I have to try other things? Just FYI: On 
the current server, there is LTSP 4.2 running on an old Suse 9.1, the 
new server is to get a fresher Linux, of course :-)

Thanks for all ideas.

Rolf

Sure.  But you're going to have to give us some more information.

Why don't you start with your lts.conf
