If you want the server to launch the software it should not
be in the chroot. Whatever you put in the chroot is download and 
launched localy by the client. Whatever you put in the server root is
executed by the server.
In short: the normal way is to install software in the server root.

Apt-get install in the chroot. 
The chroot contains any files needed for the thin-client to boot,
launch XWindow and to display the login manager. The graphical driver
must reside in the chroot.
