I'm having the same problem with a few PCs that I'm using as thin clients everything is working fine until the end user logs off their desktop so another user can log on. Instead of getting the LTSP login screen they get a black screen (these users never switch between X and Shell.) They have to reboot to get a login screen. Interestingly, I've found when testing if the user is logged on for a brief time (5-10 minutes) when they log out they *do* get a login screen. One PC model is a Gateway 300L, motherboard is an Intel (Dasher) Celeron - 2.1 -Ghz (400MHz) R0 with an integrated video port (Intel Extreme Graphic). I have other PCs that are slightly different but have the same issue. I've disabled all power management options in BIOS.

My lts.conf file has the XSERVER = vesa for this device.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Robinboby,

What key are  you hitting to switch between X and Shell ?

Once you are at a shell, you should be able to hit Alt-F1 to
get back to X.

Hai all,

        I have some problem with one Ltsp thin client's xwindow

This thin client is booting properly.. and i can use xwindow and
shell. But if i once enter to shell i can't come back in to xwindow while i
switch to xwindow i can see only a black blank screen. even if i have blank
screen while i try to get xwindow... i can come back to shell and its working
well. if i try to start xwindow from the shell using "startx" command


Fatal Server error:
server is already  active for display 0

Same problem happen while i logout from xwindow menu . So if i want to
login as a different user i want to restart machine. And even i press
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace the same problem happen.

I feel this is a hardware missmaching error. Because all other machine
working all this things properly. So here i am writing the Hardware and Bios
spacification.



Processor = Celeron 2Ghz Motherboard = Mercury [ chipset intel 845GL / 845GV ] Onboard Lan with intragrated BootROM Memory = 128 MB DDR ======================================= Boot Device = PXE Agp Apture size = 64MB Frame Buffer = 8MB On chip Video Window Size = 64 MB

Please give me a solution to solve this problem,

Thank you in advance.
