Specific information about the netvista being offered is here http://www5.pc.ibm.com/us/products.nsf/$wwwPartNumLookup/_8363EUS
I just spoke with the retailer, 'mark' assures me that there are atleast 200 left. Apparently the netvista uses a Geode GLXV/CX5530 video processor, and the audio processor is National Semiconductor LM4546 AC'97. Hope this information is enough to determine if it can be used with the ltsp Joey -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:ltsp-discuss-admin@;lists.sourceforge.net]On Behalf Of Julius Szelagiewicz Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 10:46 AM Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Ltsp-discuss] $99 IBM NetVista Thin Clients Joey, before you quote the project, find out what do we need to do to make them boot into ltsp. Out of the box, they don't. I just got one and it is very nice, but I think it requires ether boot code on the flash. The flash memory is *not* provided, but there is a socket for standard CF2 flash card. I think it needs programming similar (possibly same) as Jammin-125 and I don't know first thing about providing it. The person to ask would be Jim McQ., but it is not nice to ask him to help destroy his own business ;-) Another thought, how many are available? julius On Thu, 7 Nov 2002, Joey Officer wrote: > Not to disregard the poor ratings everyone has given them but is this > particular model worth using as a thin client.
