* Package name : initramfs-tools-tcos Version : 0.67 Upstream Author : Mario Izquierdo (mariodebian) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://cls-tcos.forja.rediris.es * License : GPL Programming Lang: Shell, Python Description : TCOS, a debian thin client operating system (Include the long description here.) TCOS is a new thin client implementation based on debian kernel, libs and bins. The image generation is very simple, TCOS add some hooks to initramfs-tools to build a initramfs file with all app that thin client have to use: dhclient udev wireless discover ssh server (dropbear) sound (alsa modules and libs) pulseaudio (networked sound server better than esound) vnc server rdesktop client Xorg (with a small number of files) Thin clients with more than 38 Mb of RAM will boot in "PXES mode", downloading with tftp the needed files. Thin clients with less than 38 Mb of RAM will try to mount a NFS server shared dir where gentcos has uncompressed initramfs image. Not complete distro like LTSP do. This package is NATIVE PACKAGE, because it hard depends on debian (or debian based) distro. This is the first package of other TCOS packages: * tcosconfig: TcosConfig is a GUI for gentcos command line * tcosmonitor: TcosMonitor is a teacher/admin control center to admin a TCOS classroom (similar to Ubuntu Thin Client Manager) Some info in GFORGE web page: http://cls-tcos.forja.rediris.es/ Debian / Ubuntu repository: http://cls-tcos.forja.rediris.es/repos Some info and screenshots (in spanish): http://soleup.eup.uva.es/trac I have uploaded to mentors.debian.net with this result: It builds these binary packages: gentcos - Image generation scripts, and tftp config for TCOS initramfs-tools-tcos - tools for generating a thin client bootable image: TCOS tcos - new thin client implementation tcos-server-utils - TCOS server utils (gdm autologin or sshfs mount) tcos-usplash - usplash boot image for TCOS The package is lintian clean.
