As said in another post answering to my question this acts only for xorg 
and not for console.

Thanks for these adresses (there are some other without so many details 
on the same server), so it is a little bit confusing....

Anyway, I failed to do what I wanted: have a usb stick mounted on the 
TC. Some things aren't clear to me:

1- We can read on the page referenced above:
<cite>
Currently, support is included for the following devices:

     * IDE cdroms
     * Legacy floppy devices
     * USB floppies
     * USB cdroms

!!!!* Partitioned USB memory sticks. Unpartitioned sticks are not 
supported.!!!!!
</cite>

This is what I want: usb memory sticks, usb external hard drive.... BUT 
later on, in "troubleshooting" section, we can read:
<cite>
   Step 5: Do you have devices in your fstab?

If you're trying to get USB plugging going, plug in a device now. A USB 
CDrom, floppy, or memory stick should work fine. You should see some
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
messages pass by on the screen, indicating that the right kernel modules 
are being loaded.
</cite>

Do memory sticks work or not?

In the same troubleshooting section, we are asked about fstab:
<cite>
In either case, if you cat /etc/fstab you should see some device entries 
in there. If the file is empty, then udev isn't recognizing your device.
</cite>

I have a /etc/fstab which is a symlink to /tmp/fstab, which is also a 
symlink to somewhere else, but the creation date is not the date of 
booting and I cannot remove this symlink for read only directory 
reason.... I don't understand why! and i don't know how to make it 
writable to root.

Using the step by step section of this page, I get confuse too there:
<cite>
  Step 3: Determining if LOCAL_STORAGE is on.

On the workstation, execute the command ps -ef | grep lbuscd. If you see 
the lbuscd running, then LOCAL_STORAGE has been enabled. There should 
also be a /tmp/drives directory. If neither of these are there, then you 
haven't properly specified LOCAL_STORAGE = Y in your lts.conf file.
</cite>

I have specified LOCAL_STORAGE = Y in my lts.conf file but:
ps -ef | grep lbuscd

returns nothing

while /tmp/drives directory exists...

I have installed perl-X11-Protocol (I run FC4 system) and 
ltsp-server-pkg-fedora-0.1-1.i386.rpm package and I am unable to have 
lbussd running neither lauching it "by hand" or at start time on the 
server....

BTW there is something wrong here: if I follow the instructions:
yum install fuse fuse-libs

My system being a x86_64 one, I get these packages installed:
fuse-libs-2.6.0-2.fc4.x86_64

When I want to install ltsp-server-pkg-fedora-0.1-1.i386.rpm package it 
complains that it doesn't find the libfuse.so.2 library. And I get the 
same complaint is I try to install ltsp-server-pkg-0.1-1.2.x86_64.rpm 
package which is quite strange...
The solution is to install the fuse-libs-2.6.0-2.fc4.i386 package.

One more thing: when I plug a usb stick or a usb external drive I have a 
message on the console (<crtl>-<alt>-<F2>) which indicates that udev is 
working but nothing is mounted (using df command); if I plug a usb 
mouse, it is immediately recognized and it works perfectly....

So I need some more help for this section if possible.

OK! Sound is working. I had to modify /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.sound file, 
changing

/bin/esd -nobeeps -tcp -port 16001 -as -1 &

to

/bin/esd -nobeeps -tcp -port 16001 -public &

and use crossfade plugin with xmms

Thanks the answer and any other to solve my problem with usb storage 
devices....

Best regards.
