Hello Norrie, this is a sign that the desktop session cannot be started. I know this problem from using gnome-session-flashback on thin clients. gnome-session-flashback is broken detecting graphics acceleration, but since you use xubuntu-desktop on fat clients, it may be different.
However, you can try the following: - At the login screen, can you select from several sessions? If so, be sure to select the xubuntu session. - To disable graphics acceleration, try putting the following line in your lts.conf: X_OPTION_01="\"DRI\" \"False\"" Regards, Rüdiger On 06.06.2014 17:27, Norrie McKinley wrote: > Hi all, pretty new to LTSP. > > I setup a test server running Xubuntu 14.04.
