Hi folks. I'm working on a new project with touchscreens, where there
will not be a mouse connected to my thin client. I'd like to disable
the mouse cursor. Is this possible with LTSP? I'm running 4.2. I
tried commenting out the mouse in lts.conf but it still shows up.
Thanks,
Eric

I've often wondered if it would be really helpful for us to compile a
list of thin clients that we've worked with, and what issues we've had
-- or how successfully we've been able to get them to work with LTSP.
When searching for new thin clients (that had serial port support) for a
new project, i
Michael: Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like a Serial ELO is the way
to go. Can I ask what thin client you've used that have serial ports?
The HP's I've worked with in the past dont have serial ports. Jean
suggested the DevonIT, which looks like it'd be just fine. But any
other suggestion
Jean-Michel: Thanks for your post! It sounds like ELO is the brand to
go with. Also thanks for the link to that thin client. Its
inexpensive, which is great, and includes the serial port I will need to
use with the ELO touchscreens. Since all we're running is Firefox in a
full-screen kiosk

Hey folks. I'm working on a new project for a client that is going to
involve LTSP and touchscreens. I've never used a touch screen before,
so I was hoping some of you could suggest ones that you have used in the

Hey folks, I'm about to start up a new project for an old client,
unrelated to my previous LTSP project. This new one would be perfect
for the extremely inexpensive LTSP Term 1000 (once available) as well as
perfect for a touch-screen setup. I'm looking for suggestions as to
what the best 15"

File transfers from a
full-fledged desktop on the network, to the server, are going as fast as
expected -- but I'll still check the network out with ifconfig.

Hey guys, got a problem. I recently re-built a server for a client, and
in the process upgraded from Slackware 10 to Slackware 11, and from LTSP
4.1 to LTSP 4.2. Everything has worked great, except for I'm having a
little bit of a problem with the screen not refreshing as fast as before.

I didnt understand how ltspfs worked. I had it all wrong.

Hey folks. I was finally able to get Firefox and IceWM to run as local
applications, along with my previously running XScreenSaver.
But... Firefox is dreadfully slow to load. Dreadfully.
Is this normal?

I know 4.2 doesnt use NFS swap... It uses something different... but
does it put the swap files for the clients in the same location on the

Ahhh, sounds like you added a new user to your server, but didn't

I think you need to go into /var/lib/yp, and run 'make'

if you get a bash

hostname.
if it doesn't, then you can also use either the IP address or the MAC
