Re: Lower footprint kernel

I have now set up everything I need except the users.
Can anyone give me a little advice how to get the final stage working:

I have ~30 thunk clients in hotellrooms. I would like all the users to 
be "guest". That means their session (and history, user data) lives only 
until logout/reboot.
1) Should I create some kind of startup file that runs on every logon 
that flushes the user home directory or is there some more elegant way?
2) Is there a workaround for not having separate user for every thin client?

Thanks!

DVI and VGA

Hi,

I try to use my thin client with a monitor (DVI) and a video-projector
(VGA) but it doesn't work correctly. My login window is out of the
screen. Is there a parameter to set in lts.conf ?

Thanks

No it's fine without "/"
I try with "cntr+b" at PXE start with and without, no difference.

No different.

Re: 1 client work, 2 not

You are trying to load the rootfs over tftp?!

That's not how LTSP works. You want to load the pxe bootloader. The
syntax should be:

filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";

as in the subnet stanza.

Openoffice Spreadsheet really sluggish on thin client


Anyone know of any pointers to tuning oocalc when using it on a thin
station (LTSP 4 if that's relevant).

On even a modest spreadsheet it's really really slugish when dealing
with blocks of cells.

Obfuscated, the one that works have an octet more. But I don't think 
this is the problem.
