ok, i've got the solution!! :-D
- install ubuntu on the thinclient or get a working xorg.conf file from
your thinclient
- put the xorg.conf file in the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11 directory
- run ltsp-build-image -a i386 (i have to do this because my server is
running 64-bit ubuntu)
and this is my little lts.conf file:
[default]
SOUND = False
LOCALDEV = True
CONFIGURE_X = True
SERVER = 192.168.0.1
SYSLOG_HOST = server
LOCAL_APPS = True
[00:14:0b:02:d9:1f]
X_CONF=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
now i've got a beautiful resolution :-D
