I believe the problem is the memory of your graphic board/ the highest possible colordepth of your clients. I know this problem. open /opt/ltsp/i383/etc/lts.conf paste X_COLOR_DEPTH=16 save then rebuild the image with sudo ltsp-update-image (wait) restart the client Is there no sucess you can try X_COLOR_DEPTH=15 or if that is not the solution another way sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 Give your root of your clients a password with passwd You have to rebuild the image with sudo ltsp-update-image (wait) restart your client Now you use CRLT+ALT+F1 to open the busybox (tty1) login as root with your new passwd cd /var/log less Xorg.6.log I hope you will find the fault in the last lines of this logfile. Perhaps you have to select another Xserver Reiner -------- Original-Nachricht -------- > Datum: Tue, 23 Oct 2007 21:09:25 -0400 > Von: Mark Goodridge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > An: Edubuntu Users <[email protected]> > Betreff: Black screen when thin client boots > Good evening list, > I'm stuck on a problem that probably has a simple, obvious, > well-documented solution, but I can't find it. > > I've set up a new Edubuntu server to replace an old K12LTSP server in a > small computer lab.
