As it happens, I found it moments after sending the post. Is that not always the way? It is http://www.ltsp.org/contrib/accessing-ltsp.txt When I had this running before, my desktop did not boot into X, and the LTSP client loaded fine. Now, my desktop boots into KDE, and the LTSP Client seems to boot into the same X session, and I get the LTSP logon, then a big mess on screen and the machine locks up. The method in the above doc is to add a line to /etc/inittab so it ends like this: # Run xdm in runlevel 5 x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon ltsp:5:respawn:/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 :1 -query ip.number.of.your.ltsp.server (I am using Fedora Core 2 with Xorg, so mine looks like # Run xdm in runlevel 5 x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon ltsp:5:respawn:/usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg :1 -query 192.168.1.3 ) > Also, you can run: > > Xnest -query <ltspserver> :1 yes - that works as well.
