Okay, here is a link that looks like it would build the Local Device support into PPC LTSP: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPCrossArchSetup However this appears to be for LTSP version 5 and not 4.2....anyone know if this is correct? I have an Edubuntu server that I am testing, I may give this a try tomorrow and see if it works, and if so how well. But I am guessing for 4.2 Xvnc and Local Devices would need to be manually compiled in the LBE. If this does work, maybe I will look at what I can do to speed up LTSP in Edubuntu to make it scale better.
