Krishna,
If you are getting "mode not supported" from your monitor it sounds
like your video card is working but the monitor you are using does not
support the video mode.
Try adding an X_MODE_0 line (i.e. X_MODE_0 = 800x600) to your
lts.conf file to select a video mode that your monitor can display or
use a different monitor.

I have a newproblem with that setting (monitor = "mode not supported" and
reports the H-freq as 53.7KHz, V-freq as 85.1 Hz.) If I put a # at the
beginning of the line and comment it out, it will still fall back to VESA
and boot up - and I can see the xorg.log either way. However I don't have
ftp to the server when I am in that shell, so I can't send it to you. I do
see "chipset KM400/KN400 not found" there under the via setting, which I
assume is the problem. Is the latest version from the unichrome website?
Maybe I could use the VT7205 driver, if available, as that seems to be the
one needed for this chip (see http://unichrome.sourceforge.net/).

Krishna,
for via unichrome, you need:
XSERVER = via
If you want to see the logfile, it exists in a ramdisk on the thin client. You
can't see it from the server. You need to set:
SCREEN_01 = shell
Then, when you boot the client, you'll get a shell prompt. at that point, type
'startx' and it will attempt to run the Xserver. When it fails, then you can go
look at /tmp/mnt/X.log

Dear Petre, Sudev, Jim, et. al.:
Thanks again for all your help. I've now got it to at least read the
section of lts.conf that relates to the host now named ws079, but it gives
a fatal error when booting into X, with reference to a log I can't find
(/tmp/mnt/X.log or something like that - neither/var/log/, /tmp/, nor
/opt/ltsp/ contain anything related AFAIK.) I guess I really need to know
what video to specify for a VIA Unichrome device, if that's included in
the video section available, or load a new driver. I suppose I'll like the
non-slow non-VESA compatibility mode performance better than what I'm
getting now.

Put this in /etc/dhcpd.conf and then restart dhcpd:
host ws079 {
hardware ethernet 00:16:ec:1d:6c:49;
fixed-address 192.168.1.79;
}
There are other parameters that can be added, but this will get you started.

I thought that it being identified by its NIC, and then as 192.168.1.79
would
be sufficient to make the numeric portion of [ws079] the link between
the two.
How does one enter the hostname in the dhcpd.conf?

Krishna an inline bottom posting would work much better ;-)
I'm guessing that the specific workstation doesn't know it's own
hostname.
Or,
it doesn't match what you've put in [xxxx] in the lts.conf file.
[SNIP]
In the section below of lts.conf you are giving a host name ws079
[ws079]
XSERVER = savage
X_MODE_0 = 800x600
X_MODE_1 = 640x480
X_MODE_2 = 1024x768
SCREEN_02 = shell
[SNIP]
Here's the dhcpd.conf:
_______________________________________________________________________________
# dhcpd.conf
[SNIP]
host test1 {
hardware ethernet 00:16:ec:1d:6c:49;
fixed-address 192.168.1.79;
filename "/lts/2.6.16.1-ltsp-2/pxelinux.0";
}
if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient" {
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.6.16.1-ltsp-2";
}
But you are not defining the host name in dhcpd.conf above. You neet
to add a line like within the curly brackets for each host:
option host-name "test1";
I hope this should solve the problem.
