Hi all,I spent most of yesterdays working hours automating the setup of a TCE-nfs+tftp server. We use Chef (www.opscode.com) for that. And I will most likely publish the cookbook/recipe soon. The main reason I started this is that we want to automate more and more of the setup. And thus ease setting up our customers systems.Two problems I encountered:1) The x2gothinclient_create skript assumes interactive usage and has no option of running non-interactive. I adopted this by removing the single "read" (so it doesn't anymore ask for confirmation and by trying to set the locale without running "dpkg-reconfigure locales". So that part worked.2) I got the client-machines (tested with a virtual machine and checked with an atom-based netbook) to boot of the pxe+tftp+nfs as wanted and am presented with x2goclient. But on the way there, the mouse and keyboard are lost and motivation on friday just before the weekend got a little low-point. Any tips where to look at what happened? Keyboard and mouse seem to be gone for good, I could neither move the pointer nor enter anything in x2goclient. Also I couldn't do Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch to a text-console.I also copied the x2gothinclient_shell-skript to create an x2gothinclient_execute which takes arguments and just executes these inside the tce-chroot instead of running an interactive bash. I don't know whether that is something I should prepare a patch for x2go for? It sure is very great for example for installing the kernel inside the chroot from the chef-recipe. And probably for other stuff I didn't yet need.
Nearly forgot to comment on this!If there is anything useful for upstream X2Go component x2gothinclient, please start sending patches to X2Go BTS [1].
