First off, thanks Jim for all the time and effort that has gone into 2.09prerelease. I have installed it on a test machine and was able to get workstation to boot fine. I like the one kernel approach. The server I used is a RedHat 7.1, running KDE2.2. All our workstations are configured to run apps locally. Couple of points. 1. Where or what does one use the initrd-kit package ? 2. what is the relevance of the option-128 in the dhcpd.conf file ? 3. I am testing a touch screen workstation and had to hardcode the Driver option & remove Protocol, ZAxisMapping & add options Type, MinimumX Y, Maximum X Y It would be nice to be able to customise the pointer options per workstation, when creating the XF86Config file, those I suppose you cannot cater for all things. 4. Ok, I am currently stuck on trying to get the xdm logon prompt. The X Server starts fine and the touch screen mouse all works. Just not log in prompt. I have seen from previous email dijests, others have had similiar problems. I have checked the following and all looks ok. We have a production system running 2.07 and I have been comparing config for the xdm, with no luck. Any pointers on this would be appreciated Regards Doug. > 1.include the following in /etc/x11/fs/config, > daemon xfs -droppriv -daemon -port 7100 > 2. /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf > [xdmcp] > change Enable=0 to Enable=1 > 3. /etc/inittab > change id:3:initdefault to id:5:initdefault: > 4. chmod 444 /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers > 5. chmod 755 /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 > 6. add to this line to the end of /etc/inittab > x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/gdm > > Message: 14 > Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2001 17:51:46 -0700 (PDT) > From: John F Cuzzola <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] X Starts, but no login window on workstation > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > xdm-config > > # commented out as per directions > > # DisplayManager.requestPort: 0 > > > > lts.conf > > SERVER = my server ip address > > *** There's another file you need to check:/etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess > > look for a line that reads something like > > * #Any host can obtain a login window > > Make sure that line is NOT commented (ie: begins with a #) > > then restart xdm > > Worth a look > g'luck > _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
