Package: x2gothinclientmanagement
Version: 1.1.0.1

I run my tftp/nfs server for my thin clients, on a 64-bit machine (a VM).
When I create a thinclient chroot with x2gothinclient_create, only the 486
kernel gets installed. I can use x2gothinclient_shell and use apt-get to
install linux-image-686, to get the 686 kernel installed. But upon doing
so, the reason for it not being auto installed is apparent: 64-bit machines
don't support PAE (not needed), and the deb package for linux-image-686
knows that this particular kernel is made for machines supporting PAE. I
can just say yes to the warnings, and I even though I end up with an error,
the kernel does get installed. This is not optimal.
I realize this is a problem (in this niche case, it probably "works as
intended") with Debian Wheezy, and not really a job for the developers of
x2go, but since I am running into this problem when using x2go, I am
reporting the problem here, and hopefully it will be sent upstream, if that
is desirable.

What is your reason for wanting to use the 686 kernel in the first place. The reason I removed 686 support from the X2Go TCE is that it

(a) did not bring any feelable improvements while my TCEs ran under Debian squeeze _and_
  (b) did not work fluently if the PXE server machine is a amd64 system

Please enlight me, why 686 would be a sensible kernel alternative to use here...

Greets,
Mike
