For the purpose of implementing LTSP in our company in a production 
environment I have built a prototype diskless workstation using new 
purchased parts including an ASUS TUSI-M motherboard with SiS 630ET AGP 
Chipset. This is probably overkill for a terminal, but will allow me to buy 
new reliable hardware and is still plenty powerful to run some local apps 
such as Mozilla.

The problem I am experiencing with this workstation is occasional 
spontaneous loss of session, causing the workstation to go back to the KDM 
login screen. I first used XFree86 4.1, then switched to 3.3.6 SVGA driver. 
Loss of session still occurs, but not as frequently. During all this time I 
can run the same apps on the server without any problems, therefore I 
suspecting the problem lies in the diskless workstation setup.

I am suspicious that the problem is XFree86 driver for the integrated SiS 
video driver, but would like to get feedback from others that may have 
experienced similar problem. I suppose my options would be a) try different 
video driver versions for SiS b) try different hardware.

Software versions in use: SuSE 7.3, KDE 2.2.2, Mozilla 1.0, LTSP 3.0.5, 
CITRIX ICA client, OpenOffice.org 1.0.0
