Great suggestion. I'll give that a go tomorrow morning. Sound was the
next thing I was gonna work on, so this will *hopefully* knock out 2
birds with 1 stone. Thanks!

I have setup a lab for the school here running an Edubuntu server. My
clients are having problems though. I cannot get them to load X at

1. I will boot one of my clients and it'll load up fine.
2. I then boot a second client. I get the following after boot in a
terminal window (no GUI login screen):

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS ltsp tty1
ltsp login:

Have you tried hitting <ctrl><alt><F7> when you see this screen? I have
yet to understand this behaviour myself but ferquently thin clients seem to
boot to the text terminal instead of showing the X output (even though X is
started).
Actually, if someone knows the answer to this and how to fix it I'd be
mightily interested.
i only recently heard about that myself, there seems to be a timing
issue between ldm (the login manager) and usplash (the splashscreen app
that switches to console 1 if it doesnt get killed early enough and
doesnt detect GDM) i didnt see that myself in any tests because i have
set SOUND=True in all my lts.conf files ... this delays the startup of
the login manager for half a second or so, exactly the time it needs for
usplash to be shut down ... so an easy workaround is to set SOUND=True
in an /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf file you create, even if you dont have
sound support on the hardware (esd will fail gracefully if it cant
connect to a sound device)
i'll try to find a fix soon and to push it to dapper-updates ...
ciao
