This is correct, if it has PXE, your fine. I have two that do and work with LTSP. If it does not, you don't want it. They do not have a normal bios and getting these things to work without PXE is no simple task. Avoid any models with win CE because they don't have PXE. Instead look for these part

Fajar, I have this problem in certain cases with the foxpro app that I run. It is only in rare and temporary cases, so I have not tried to fix it. However, there is a dosemu setting that you can change to control how much cpu it uses. Look for $_hogthreshold in dosemurc. bob On 8/25/05, Fajar

Chris, As you have noticed, LTSP really works best on the lan. You may get it to work, but you should consider how NX can fit in. Perhaps you could use a local LTSP server and make individual NX connections back to your central site. If you haven't used it before, I think you will be impressed

I also run dosemu and had the same message in the past. Simply uncommenting the line that you did does not install the font. Make sure the vga font is installed. Look here (or where you have ltsp installed): /opt/ltsp4.1.1/i386/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ If it is not, you'll have find out how to

I would not purchase any of the ones you listed. Instead, I would buy diskless versions because the local flash/OS is not necessary with LTSP. A good place to look is www.disklessworkstations.com. There are two options. One with legacy and more ram than the other. bob On 8/10/05, Dale Gallagher
