Thanks Jim,

This has taken me to the next question. I am able to get to a GDM screen
on the thin client if I set the mouse device to tty0. It is a serial
mouse, so I should be using ttyS0 instead. When I do the Xserver on the
client complains:

Cannot open mouse (No such fiel or directory)

Is there something that I have to do to enable a local serial port?


Thanks,
Kim Adil
