Peter I am using ldm. I did not see Szabo's post. I just read it. Wanted to confirm my suspicions. :-)
ltpsfsd came from lenny. ltspfs came from ltsp-etch-backports Pretty much followed http://wiki.debian.org/LTSP/Howto As to sources: On the server added deb http://pkg-ltsp.alioth.debian.org/debian etch-ltsp-backports main on the client install have deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free Really should have a preference file or will start pulling everything from sid. ldm and ltspfsd in lenny conflict :-( At least yesterday they did. I then used aptitude to bring in ldm. chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 aptitude selected ldm from sid I made sure it did not uninstall needed packages by reselecting them. Suppose "apt-get -t sid install ldm" would do it. As to the device icons in kde found this: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ltspfs-virtual-hal-devices Hope it can be worked out. Not sure if I can switch to ltsp5 without it Peter Stein wrote: > This sounds quite promising. I had worked recently on Debian and Ltsp 5 too. > I also used the backports for the Etch system.
