Hi,
I'm tring LTSP, I've got an host running debian sid.
On the client I've got very small characters... on the server they  
are  ok. Someone suggest me it was a fonts problem and to install X  
Font  Server to make thoose characters available on the terminals.
Now I've installed XFS, someone can suggest me a document to find a  
way  to solve this situation?
At least you need to start XFS using /etc/init.d/xfs start and make  
sure that your lts.conf contains USE_XFS = Y (it is set to N by  
default). Then restart the thin client(s) and check if this helped.  
If your problem is limited to the browser, that can usually be  
tweaked in the application, though the exact method varies from  
browser to browser.

life is a reach. then you gybe.

I've checked, xfs is started I see it in the process lists. I've  
execute #netstat -ap | grep xfs and I got this:
tcp        0      0 *:font-service          *:*                      
LISTEN     255/xfs
tcp        0      0 192.168.1.:font-service star01:1024              
ESTABLISHED255/xfs
unix  2      [ ACC ]     STREAM     LISTENING     575      255/xfs             / 
tmp/.font-unix/fs7100
unix  3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     699      255/xfs             /

unix  2      [ ]         DGRAM                    643      255/xfs

The host is 192.168.1.1 the first client I'm testing called star01 is  
192.168.1.2
In the lts.conf USE_XFS is setted to Y.

Unfortunatly the problem is not just in the browser, it's in a lot of  
applications: OpenOffice menus, GIMP menus, Evolution... Even in gdm  
menu characters, and login input box.

Thanks,
Enrico
