Hi!

I had similar problem after a fresh installation on 8.10. This is what
fixed it for me. I had line

X_MODE_0 = 1024x768

already in lts.conf (and everything used to work in 8.02). But after
installing 8.10 I needed to add line

CONFIGURE_X = True

to make clients avoid resolutions 1200xsomething and obey the rule
1024x768. I dont remember where I found that option, but as said it
works for me.



Yours Ville

Any suggestions for how to prevent clients from having excessively high
resolution, e.g. one of my clients ends up with 1920*1440 which is almost
unreadable.

I tried:

[default]
X_MODE_0 =1024x768

in  /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf but for some reason this doesn't
work on this client. I also tried sudo ltsp-update-image in case that
needed to be done, but still resolution remains 1920x1440 on this client.

Are you sure 1024x768 is an available mode?  I imagine the above only works
if it is.  If you know how to login on the thin client console you could
take a look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see what modes are available.
