Hi Jim,
I know this email was directed to Jeff, but perhaps my data can also help, since I'm experiencing similar problems.

Usually, when faced with a problem like this, I like to collect data. 99% of the time, if you collect enough data, the patterns will emerge, and the cause will become obvious. Then, once we know the cause, coming up with a solution becomes much easier.
Here's the things I think we should look at:
o Version of LTSP. I'm using standard LTSP-4.0, not k12ltsp.
LTSP-4.0
o Version of the kernel. I'm using 2.4.24-ltsp-1.
2.4.24-ltsp-4 (although I experience lockups with 2.4.24-ltsp-1, also)
o NFS-Swap. It's off for my customers.Currently on, although crashes happen either way. Turned it on in case there were memory issues.
o Xserver. I'm using setting XSERVER = auto
Same.
o Window mgr/Desktop environment. I'm running Icewm.
KDE
o Applications. Mozilla and Xterm.
Firefox and MS Word in Crossover Office.
No Xserver crashes. The machines just lock up at any time of day (or so it seems).Also, can you describe the failure ?
Is the machine locking up?
Is the Xserver just crashing, and going back to the login
prompt ?
If you and others can get back to me, with information about your setup,
as it compares with mine, maybe we can start to get to the bottom
of this.
I'm hopeful that we can resolve this, too. It'd be nice, anyway. :)
Oh, if it's helpful, my server is running Gentoo 2004.1, always up to date.
If you need more, let me know.
Nathan
