Good morning list,

I've been working on some plans to use Edubuntu in our school, but the lack of local device support is a deal breaker. I know that it is a priority for the next release, but I am hoping to deploy machines in the immediate future.

I see there is a stub of a Wiki page at http://wiki.edubuntu.org/ThinClientLocalDevices but it doesn't have much commentary. My questions are...

1) Are there known hacks/techniques to get floppys & usb disks working? Workable solutions that sacrifices some network/client performance or security are a reasonable compromise.

2) Will LTSP techniques transfer over? I read through http://www.unicolet.org/linux/ltsp.html and it sounds confident. I'm not a unix guru but it seems straightforward. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jeff Casimir
