Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Speed of boot with LTSP5

2007-02-27 Thread Jim McQuillan
there's no doubt that the LTSP-5 in Ubuntu and Debian doesn't boot as fast as LTSP-4.2 did. With LTSP-4.2, we spent an awful lot of time trimming things down as much as possible, which had a great effect on the boot speed. LTSP-5 is a complete re-design, and it hasn't had that fine tuning yet.

We actually invested in a few HP Thin Clients at my company, T5125s. They are 400MHz with 128MB Ram and Linux. They work great so far (only had them for a few months). Nice and quiet and support PXE booting. Also, if you boot into the pre-installed Linux on the flash drive, you can connect via XD

[Ltsp-discuss] client ignores DHCPOFFER

2007-02-27 Thread Martin Miethe
Hi NG! I try to use LTSP 4.2 on Fedora 6. My problem now is that my client does not get an IP adress from the DHCP server. The client just seems to ignore the DHCPOFFER command. To boot the client, I use a CD image from rom-o-matic.net. On the clients display, it says "Searching for Server (DHCP)

Bill, with LTSP-5 on Debian and Ubuntu, the lts.conf file is not required. I think on Ubuntu, it's not even created by default. if you want to create one, go ahead. Jim McQuillan [EMAIL PROTECTED] bill wrote: > Thanks Paul, I do know what it looks like...lol. I am perplexed > because it i

Bill, Since you mention using Ubuntu, it is possible that you've installed LTSP5, I will assume you did. I have yet to try LTSP5 but I can say the structure is somewhat different and if I were you (which I plan to try LTSP5 soon), I would run the find command. Find / -name lts.conf I'm sure ot

has any one had any experience of using modern HP Thin clients. Do they work in an LTSP (or Edubuntu) style setup? Like for instance using a HP Compaq t5525. We want to buy some purpose built new units... ones we can source in the UK. So any other suggestions would be great. -- Kind regards A
