KDE and GNOME are very complex desktop environments, made up of many distinct applications interacting each other and with system services. You have to put each of those many components and theyre referring libs inside the ltsp tree that is exported via nfs, but if you succeed in this hellish task than you havo to instruct the environment to run the used applications on the server... another and even more diabolic task i think :) by the way i think you need something other than ltsp, maybe something like this: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/diskless-howto.xml, or google for "linux diskless howto" > 3) I'm trying to boot to LTSP from the Integrated Network Device on each of > our workstations.
