[ilugd] ssh on a different virtual console
I would like to run an x-server on a separate virtual console (control+alt+f12), open an x-term there, ssh to the server, and start gnome. That should give me access to two different machines on two virtual consoles (my local machine on ctrl+alt+f7 and remote machine on ctrl+alt+f12). This approach is explained on http://www.linux-tip.net/cms/content/view/302/26/ I tried to follow instructions in this article.

Re: [ilugd] ssh on a different virtual console
If you already have X running and a desktop environment running on F7, you can start a new one on F8 (from the console in F1, for example) using: This opens the desktop environment of the local machine. I was thinking of starting it from the remote machine so that I would get the start menu etc of the remote machine. But may be all this is not worth it after all. For example, it will perhaps mess up things on F7 as well because the DISPLAY variable will now be directed to F12. It did something like that when I did startx -- :5 from F1. I was unable to open emacs on F7 after that. I promptly shut the x-server on F12 and restarted it on F7:) A non-starter perhaps. Sorry.

[ilugd] sizing benchmark for NX
hi, during the talk at JNU last month, one issue that came up was the sizing model - how much resource you need to throw into the backend infrastructure to make the thin-client model work using NX/freenx. I finally had the time to do some testing and it seems that a machine of the following spec, is 'enough' to run between 20 - 22 Desktop Clients. 2 AMD Opteron 252 8 Gigs of RAM 6 500GB sata-3 drives, ext3 ( on a 3ware 9560, in a raid-0+1 ) a DesktopClient was basically someone who was running all these at the same time: Firefox - 6 to 8 tabs open OO-Calc - 200 KB doc open a Couple of Terminal windows Thunderbird GAIM GIMP - with a 5 MB file open And the usual gnome panel stuff, like the weather applet, a couple of resource monitoring applets Depending on I/O requirements you can actually scale the same machine upto 40 odd users if they dont hit the drives that much.

Your description of the client use, is equivalent or more of the Knowledge Worker described in the competitions literature. On the face of it, I think the performances match. If your data is on the same server as the NXserver, your users are doing more I/O than would be typical in a normal working environment. In most cases, users data would be on a NAS / SAN setup. So the CPU/DMA load gets transferred to network. I do'nt know how much difference does that make. I have recently installed NXClients on a larger number of machines.
