Phil, you are correct, the X_MODE_0 parameter is ignored by the Xvesa xserver, because the Xvesa Xserver doesn't use the XF86Config file. So, you can apply a quick fix to the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.local file. Just search for 'Xvesa', and you should see a line that says: XOPTS="-shadow -

Jim,   Thanks for the write up on the Xvesa server for the ThinkNIC. Works great for clearing up the fuzzy fonts.   Here is my question, how can I force the Xvesa server into 800x600 resolution?  The X_MODE_0 option of the ltsp.conf file seems to be ignored and will always go into 1024x768.

Tarjei, The XFree86 binaries are built from the standard sources that I downloaded directly from ftp.xfree86.org. The real trick is getting them installed in the correct place. You need to build them with the standard locations, such as /usr/X11R6 built into the sources, but then when you inst
