Thanks for the reply. It gave me some things to try. I wrote everything down below, so sorry if it's long. If anyone has any ideas based on this please let me know.

I'm not 100% sure about the host names (see step 4 below). > > http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LTSP-42-LocalDev#Troubleshooting I tried to go through the steps listed here. 1. Disable X on the workstation. I can do that, but it doesn't let me be local (it gives me a login to my server). Is there a better way to do this? It would be nice to troubleshoot from the client. 2. Step 2: Are you running LTSP 4.2? No, LTSP 5.07. I verify this using my package manager. dpkg-query -W ltsp-server-standalone ltsp-server-standalone 5.0.7 I don't think it's likely any other version is running since this is the first and only version I've installed. 3. Step 3: Determining if LOCAL_STORAGE is on. Is this depricated in ltsp 5? Anyway, here is my lts.conf file [default] SOUND=True LOCALDEV=True NBD_SWAP=True SYSLOG=server NETWORK_COMPRESSION=True Another thing. It _does_ detect my other hardware (cd rom, etc) so I don't think the problem is here. 4. Step 4: Does your workstation know its name? Good question. Since I'm not on the local workstation it's hard to know for sure. To troubleshoot, in my /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file, I included the line: use-host-decl-names on; and in /etc/hosts I have my client listed. 192.168.1.249 node0 I can also ping node0. This of course does not tell me for sure if the host knows it's name. But I think it should. Step 5: Do you have devices in your fstab? Again, hard to see, since I'm not logged on really at the localhost. But as far as the bios, it says usb is enabled. Also, I booted the thin client from an ubuntu 7.04 live cd (same version the server is installed with other than the server is 64 bit) and the usb is auto detected. Step 6: Boot X ok Step 7: Is the user in the fuse group? Yes. Step 8: Is lbussd running? As far as I can tell, no. Could this be the problem? libx11perl was not installed on either the server or the clients, so I installed it on both. When I installed ltsp, there is not startup script in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/51lbus-start, or anywhere else as far as I can tell. Step 9: Is fuse loaded? Yes. lsmod | grep fuse fuse 51888 2 Step 10: is the lbus_event_handler firing? no. I don't have an lbus_event_handler script $locate lbus_event_handler -- However, the floppies and other stuff is mounted. This is verified by typing mount. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
