Re: [openthinclient-user] pxe client question

2009-02-12 Thread Wim De Geeter
Hi,

Thanks. My client is booting now. It was not automatic recognized but 
after adding it manually and changing something in the dhcp config he is 
booting now.
I need to do some further tests now.

Thanks again
Wim

 Hi Martin,

 This is what I got in the wrapper.log

 INFO   | jvm 1| 2009/02/09 17:14:18 | 17:14:18,054 INFO  
 [EavesdroppingPXEService] Got PXE DISCOVER on 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:67 from

 I didn't open an issue yet.

 Thanks, Wim

 Hi,
 I am new to openthinclient and want to test this out.
 I am running Ubuntu 6.06 with the latest openthinclient version
 I have setup everything but when I boot my client I cannot see them 
 under 'PXE Clients' in the openthinclient manager.
 I see that my client gets an IP address from my dhcp server.
 This is my DHCP config

 /subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range 192.168.2.200 192.168.2.220;
 option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255;
 option routers 192.168.2.31;
 option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
 }/

 Anything else I forgot?

 Many thanks

[openthinclient-user] DChange display resolution

2009-02-12 Thread Wim De Geeter
Hi,
After booting my first thin client the display resolution is too low 
(800x600).
How can I change this? I added already in the openthinclient manager for 
this client the device 'monitor 1280x1024' allocated but without success.
I also see when I boot the client a message like
'You passed an undefined mode. Press  to see Video Modes 
available or press space to continue.
Any idea how to change the resolution?
Many thanks

Re: [openthinclient-user] DChange display resolution

2009-02-12 Thread Martin Kreiner
hi wim,

if you encounter problems like:
'You passed an undefined mode. Press  to see Video Mode'
it seems your thin client hardware does not support standard VESA video modes.

do you have any specs for this hardware?


cheers,
martin
