Thanks Gadi

I found I also needed the X_MODE_0 line:-

[<client MAC address>]
X_MODE_0 = 1280x1024
X_HORZSYNC = "30-80"
X_VERTREFRESH = "59-75"

Greetings

I've setup a small Ubuntu 8.04LTS LTSP server but I'm having trouble
with video configs - mainly on one client - after the boot splash I just
get a warning that the video sync is out of range. It says the vertical
refresh is only 55Hz which is indeed below the monitor spec of 59-75.
Monitor is LCD: CTX S700A. It warns "Mode should be below 1280 x 1024
75Hz".Other client monitors, one LCD and one CRT are OK.

I created /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf and an entry with the
client MAC. Then I put X_VERTREFRESH = 60 and rebooted the client, but
it had no effect. The edubuntu doc 'customizing-thin-client' indicates
that this will only force lower values, so perhaps that is normal.

I then created a custom xorg-nv.conf with "Device" "Driver" "nv" since
the client  uses nV GeForce 6150LE. In lts.conf I put
X_CONF=/etc/X11/xorg-nv.conf. This had an effect - it forced the
HorizSync down to 35Khz (from 69KHz), but left VertRefresh at 55Hz -
still out of range. I tried adding HorizSync and VertRefresh settings
into the "Monitor" section of my custom xorg-nv.conf but these had no
effect.

I also tried doing ltsp-update-image after these changes. I don't
understand why my settings have no effect.

Any enlightenment would be appreciated.
Steve
