This is safe limit. On one server I am running there is 1.5 GB RAM and we run 15~18 clients without problem. what i do find amazing, is that no discussion or exploration on the alternatives and choices available. for instance, all just place their bets on ltsp. if you check the pxe site, perhaps you may find something a little more convenient, but i don't know. am sure other alternatives are worth considering. If it works good why consider alternative? I found after a bit ( yes not very deep) look around that LTSP was easy to configure and gives working system that is stable and could keep my team of non-techies happy at their workstations.

The main idea is to utilise older PCs( 486, P-I) to work efficiently. Old PC's and good graphic cards is sort of contradiction as most the 486 came with ISA bus ( some did with PCI bus ) However since graphics are to be processed at the server and served to client display this means traffic on network. Again was quite surprised to note that in my work situation there is very little network traffic using LTSP as files are served by the same server and only end display travels on network. You serve software like OpenOffice from a central server. My advice is that you stick to a less heavy Window manager like IceWM, Window Maker, or XFCE4(it is much improved). OpenOffice 1.1 is much faster than the earlier versions. In a LTSP environment, the subsequent loading of OpenOffice at the client end, after some user has already done it, will be really fast( one second or thereabout). And yes, such a Quite agree on the last about fast opens.

[ilugd] HP Laser Printers
This is for information only for those who may be having problem is using some HP Laser printers like HP1000 / HP1005 etc. These printers (both USB and Parallel Port) et recognized when being configured by cups or ldp but when test page or printing is sent nothing happens. The reason for this is that every time the printer is started it needs to be sent firmware to it. This is to be done once every time printer goes through power on / off cycle. here after the printer works perfectly. See details of your printer at http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=HP I was flummoxed that even parallel port printer was not working till I went through he step at the page / links from there. -- Sudev Barar [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
