ok, i've got the solution!! :-D - install ubuntu on the thinclient or get a working xorg.conf file from your thinclient - put the xorg.conf file in the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11 directory - run ltsp-build-image -a i386 (i have to do this because my server is running 64-bit ubuntu) and this is my li

Hi. Rename the file lts.conf to lts.conf.bk and boot the thinclient. In the thin client execute xrandr. I think XSERVER should not be required. The thin client should normally be able to auto-detect the card. - Original Message From: Ivan Torretti - Sun Microsystems Schweiz AG <[EMA
