[Ltsp-discuss] One client going nuts randomly

Hi everyone, This is just the case when I don't know where to start :-) We are still running an older system with 4.2 based on a Suse 10.3. One of our clients (unfortunately, it's the one on the teacher's desk in one of the computer labs) sometimes (i. e. randomly) runs bust. Suddenly all

[Ltsp-discuss] what's the proper way to force metacity rather than compiz?

2011-02-09 Thread john
Hi all, I'd like to turn off some of the desktop special effects and use a less hungry window manager. Ideally I'd like to use lts.conf to tell most clients to use metacity and a few clients to use compiz. Is this possible or do I really need to set this for all users via gconf-tool? Thanks!

I'll also add that after all users log out memory usage remains high. Once users have logged off and processes have ended, I would expect memory to be freed. John On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 2:16 PM, john lists.j...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Jeff, On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 1:42 PM, Jeff Siddall
