It's not a kernel problem, with an 686 or even with an x86_64bits
kernel you'll see about 3.2 GB with 4 GB installed. In fact lot of
manual of motherboard write this limitation, for example in the ASUS
A8S-X (recent mobo) you can read : 

"Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than
4GB of system memory when you installed four 1GB DDR memory modules."

    
Compiling a kernel with 64GB support *does* solve this problem.

I believe you on word, but where do you find this option ?
I looked for it with xconfig in the sources of ubuntu (linux-source-2.6.15) and kernel.org (2.6.15.6) but without succes. :-(
I've always 3271 Mo with 4*1Go installed.


Other thing, for debug client purpose, can you recall to me (or to
all) howto validate a root text session on the client ? only with
option in lts.conf ?
    

If you want root access on a thin client (handy for diagnostics) without
using SCREEN_09=shell, then you could "sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386" and
"passwd root".

Thanks a lot, it's very practical. :-)
