Hiho, after a while I'm back playing with LTSP. Now I'm upgrading my new server to LTSP 5.
However, after having spent the entire day I'm not yet happy with the
results.
Biggest headache at the moment is, that the client's xserver seems to
start but then aparently dies down in automatic boot and I get a
text-login.
If I login on the client as root I can
- run local X (by issuing # startx)
- run X connecting to the server (by issuing # X -query my.server.s.ip)
So the local X-setup seems to be working ... that's good.
However, could it be, that there are problems with the downloadable
i386-client-fs for Debian/Etch from the LTSP site? (I run amd64 so I
can't build one myself)
When looking at the small print while booting I get a couple of errors
and warnings, because some files or paths seem to be missing on the
client, e.g.:
/var/cache/man
/etc/hotplug/.run
/var/lib/nfs
/etc/network/run (this is a directory, that is there though)
/usr/sbin/kudzu
/usr/sbin/detect
This makes me believe, that my client root-fs is buggy, even though it's
an official download.
Has anyone a clean (untwisted/unpatched) debian client-fs for i386 -
ideally lenny-release?
Or might I have a completely different problem, that I'm not yet aware
of?
Thanks a lot folks!
Stefan.
