Thanks, James, and Asmo also.

Well, I set up a small lts.conf in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386, but
disappointingly, is appeears to get ignored.

My specific problems are that its defaulting to a "US" keyboard, whereas I
need "GB". Also it refuses to set the monitor resolution to anything other
than 1024x768, whereas I really need 1600x1200.

Looking at the Xorg.log in the workstation certainly suggests it hasn't seen
the config.

I tried hacking the Xorg.conf file for the workstations, but that had no
effect, presumablt because the whole thing needs squashing into an initrd. 
ltsp-update-image doesn't appear to be available in this distro :(

This is the lts.conf I'm using:
[Default]
        SERVER          = 192.168.10.7
        X_MOUSE_DEVICE  = /dev/psaux
        X_MOUSE_PROTOCOL= Auto
        SEARCH_DOMAIN   = magpieway.net

[00:50:04:17:f0:10]
        X_COLOR_DEPTH   = 15
        X_HORIZSYNC     = 28-92
        X_VERTREFRESH   = 48-85
        X_KBLAYOUT      = gb
        X_MODE_0        = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 162.0 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 
1201 1204 1250
