Hi,

I added XKBLAYOUT=en in lts.conf file and it worked. The client gets a
proper desktop in English.
But the boot speed is really slow. Infact, the server with Samba,
LTSP, DHCP and other services boot much faster and the LTSP client
takes more than a minute.

The LTSP client is a Acer Laptop with 2GB ram and there are only two
machines connected to the switch, one is the server and the other one
is the laptop.

can anyone help me?
