Well,

Thanks to lots of help from Julius Szelagiewics and
Erick Tyack, I think we've gotten the Fuzzy/Blurry
fonts problem fixed for the ThinkNIC computer.

I poked around the ThinkNIC CDrom iso image and found
that they are using the Xvesa Xserver.  This is based
on the TinyX/Kdrive Xserver that is part of the XFree86
package.

I've created a package that contains everything
needed.

you could use the Xvesa Xserver that comes on the 
ThinkNIC CDrom, but that version is expecting the
mouse to be called /dev/mouse, when in reality,
it is /dev/psaux on LTSP-3.0.  The new Xvesa that
I compiled will find the mouse as /dev/psaux.


The /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.local script had to
be modified, to call the correct Xserver.  So,
if you've modified your rc.local script, you should
save a copy of it before installing the new Xvesa
package.

Once the package is installed, the only thing you need to
change in lts.conf is the XSERVER.  You need to set
it like this:

    XSERVER = Xvesa

This should take care of any problems with fonts and
bad graphics at 1024x768


The new package is in the 

    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17723

page.

SO, if you have a ThinkNIC and want to fix those ugly fonts,
give this a try and let us know how it works for you.

Thanks,

Jim McQuillan
