Only if your client needs them, and if it does then it would be best to make
them specific to the client, by putting it in it's own section later on in
lts.conf, e.g.
[00:40:63:F6:95:70]
XSERVER=vesa
X_MODE_0=1024X768
Carrying on with your lts.conf...

Fine.

Your choice, I tend to specify SOUND=False in the [default] section, but
SOUND=True for each of the mac addresses on which I want sound.

I've never used NBD_SWAP, but for low ram clients this seems
counter-intuitive, I would have thought you would switch this ON rather than
off.

As per SOUND, I specify FALSE in the [default] section, and switch on as
required for each client.

Never seen this one before - anyone?
I like to structure my lts.conf file like this:
[default]
X_COLOR_DEPTH = 16
LOCALDEV = False
SOUND = False
[monitor-dgm-l1931]
X_MODE_0 = 1280x1024
X_HORZSYNC = "64-80"
X_VERTREFRESH = "60-65"
[00:30:43:E6:94:50]
# Example PC
LIKE = monitor-dgm-l1931
SOUND = True
LOCALDEV = True
The LIKE command is infinitely useful, and you can have multiple LIKE
statements for each mac address, so you could have a LIKE statement for the
monitor, base, sound, etc. Helps to keep a neat lts.conf file.
