I have recently acquired a new laptop, on which I am running Debian Sarge. It's fine for outside use and so on, but I would like also to use it as a "thin client" for my desktop (also running Sarge) when at home.
I found http://ithacafreesoftware.org/Members/mitch/notebook/debian/ltsp/ and followed the instructions for "Setting up remote X server (XDMCP) sessions". From my laptop, I can use Xnest to bring up kdm on my desktop and log in successfully. However, I cannot log in directly, without launching KDE on the laptop first. When running a local login session on the laptop, I choose "Start New Session" from the K menu to bring up a new KDM window, and select "Remote Login" there. I can see the desktop in the list of available servers, but when I double-click its hostname, KDM flickers and restarts. Any suggestions?
