Thanks for the tip!
I'll give it a go. The workstations are P3s with 256Mb RAM, but
hopefully they should work.

Would your thin client hardware be up to allowing local apps? We run
Tux Paint this way, which means that the thin client hardware
resources (memory) are used. Really slick and gives LTSP
environments great scalability, taking load from the server. We do
this for Firefox (and Flash) too. And for TuxMath and Hydrogen.

(Although on 10.04, I'm pretty sure I didn't have to copy the
'wrapper script' it's talking about.)
