tnx, problem solved underclocking the CPU from 120 Mhz to 100 Mhz made knoppix work. After that (now I was sure that linux even runs on the damn thing), I used Xfree 3.x and the ltsp workstation was up'n running in a few seconds. On top on the original hardware I added an eepro100 network card and

thank you for the answer. For my setup I use IBM GL300 machines with pII 450 CPUs which I can get for abot 50 USD at my local used computers shop and they work really great (they have Matrox g200 AGP cards). I really wanted to make that compaq deskpro work because I can get a lot more systems like

You may need to build a custom Xf86config file for this card and specify it with the XF86CONFIG_FILE option; that way you can tweak the xf86config file to get it working. I would boot the terminal into text mode and manually run X, and change the x86config file from another terminal, so you don't

Hello, I am running a ltsp setup (6 clients so far), and everything was fine until I tried adding a client using an old compaq deskpro 4000. The machine has a 120 Mhz P1 cpu, 32 ram, onboard tlan nic and cirrus logic video. Using a eepro100 PCI network card I was able to start the client quite eas
