don't include acpi support
* it will not work with the board you have said.
* and for build.conf please mentioned your thinstation version.

Hi Bertie,
The best (in my opinion) way to fight problems with "unknown" hardware
is to follow the following approach:
1. Install TS 2.5 via GIT (install GIT at first): git clone
git://thinstation.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/thinstation/thinstation
2. Change into downloaded directory, i.e. thinstation and run
./setup-chroot which will install in turm all preconfigured packages
and will bring you into a chroot environment
3. Any other time you will need to re-run ./setup-chroot to generate
an image from thinstation directory
4. Once you are chrooted you need to change directory into ts/2.5 and
run "./build --allmodules" which will build up an image with all
supported modules so your motherboard should work as well
5. Use the image and boot up your computer to TS, then run any kind of
terminal, say xterm and run "hwlister.sh" which could end up into two
files in the root directory with *.list extension. You need to
transfer these files to the computer which has TS 2.5 installed (see
above steps) and then put them into thinstation/ts/2.5/machine/xxx
directory where xxx could be arbitrary name to reflect your hardware.
6. Finally comment all lines with "machine" prefix in build.conf and
add "machine xxx" so only modules required for your hardware will be
used.
7. Customize other aspects of build.conf and
thinstation.conf.buildtime to cover your needs and build an image.
8. Boot up TS with this image and check if everything works. If not --
welcome on board :)

Hi! just want to have my network more secure:) I would like to have any link
between clients and servers (same LAN) more secure. Is there any way, after
client receives kernel, configs and software, to have an encrypted xdmcp's
link to server?
thanks in advance,

Yes. Use NX in stead. It's ssh encrypted and *way* faster. XDMCP is
1980ies technology. Thinstation naturally has the most recent NX
client.
NX has a free edition. See www.nomachine.com an check if the license
is agreeable. There is also the completely free freeNX, but I have had
mixed experiences with that one. Works for most people though.

Hi! I was thinking about TS. Since nowadays streaming (video, voice) is
really widely used and for example KDE in a XDMCP session has some
difficulty to play streamming and there is no sound. Maybe TS (or thinclient
topology) will die in near future?

nope
there are several projects which address these new features. It has to
depend on the Servers first. OpenGL is another issue like video
streaming. Especially the VDI guys like Microsoft, Citrix or Xen are
highly motivated to provide such functions.
Citrix VideoFrame or HDX based on RemoteFX
Wyse has its own solution since years
Microsoft - RemoteFX http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RemoteFX
VirtualGL on Linux Side http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualGL
ThinLinc which is included in Thinstation:
* http://www.cendio.com/products/thinlinc/features/streamvideosup.xhtml
*
http://www.cendio.com/products/thinlinc/solutions/technology/advgraphics.xht
ml
Never had the time to test that ThinLinc stuff.
The trick isn't the protocol. its the bandwidth usage.
greets
Tobias

Well Microsoft and Red Hat (the biggest commercial Linux provider)
thinks different. MS works hard to expand RDP and now with RemoteFX
and Red hat is busy with Spice. TS will support both eventually, but
as usual we are short of manpower.
But if you think thin clients as the original SUN/Oracle idea that has
been dead for 8-10 years. Thinstation was never a thin client in that
sense, we just use the term for recognition. In reality we are a "fit
client". Ridiculous name, but I haven't a better term.
