See chapter 12 of the documentation: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ltsp/index.php?title=Ltsp_LtspDocumentationUpstream Some extract below: Modules and startup scripts ================== For the most part, LTSP does a very good job of detecting what hardware’s on your thin client. However, it’s possible that you may want to manually specify a kernel module to load after boot. Alternatively, you may have a script you’ve written that you’ve put in the chroot, and want to make sure gets run at startup. LTSP provides some hooks to allow you to do this. MODULE_01...MODULE_10 string, default unset Up to 10 kernel modules can be loaded by using these configuration entries. The entire command line that you would use when running insmod can be specified here. For example: MODULE_01 = uart401.o MODULE_02 = "sb.o io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1" MODULE_03 = opl3.o If the value of this parameter is an absolute path name, then insmod will be used to load the module. Otherwise, modprobe will be used. In normal circumstances, you shouldn’t need to specify anything here, as most hardware will be auto-detected.
