FYI, I wanted to pass the word on to you all regarding an important 
issue (to me, anyway) regarding SDL applications running on LTSP 
clients.. ones like TuxPaint, TuxMath, TuxType, CircusLinux, etc.. never 
worked right - there was never sound, server CPU utilization would be 
near 100% with a single instance, and the apps would crash when you 
attempted to exit.

In Ubuntu, the cure is to install the 'libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio' 
package, which is not installed by default. I'm sure there are similar 
packages for other distros which might provide the same results. 
Hopefully this will be of help to those who want to use SDL apps on thin 
clients (many schools can utilize these programs as they are made for 
children).

Details on all of this are at 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/tuxmath/+bug/269082 . Thank 
you all who helped solve this long standing issue (at least in Ubuntu it 
was an issue!)


Cheers,
Jordan/Lns
