Hey everybody,
(Apologies to the moderator for the first post in HTML, won't happen again)

I had LTSP running on 8.04 for a long time, and just recently upgraded
the server to 9.04. Most everything is running better, and xorg is now
reading the monitors and setting display resolutions properly, which
is a nice bonus.
The downside is that certain actions are fairly slow that weren't
before. Mostly it is in select dropdowns within firefox, but dropdown
menus anywhere in Ubuntu are slow to respond. I've read a bit that
Jaunty had problems with intel video drivers and that Jaunty had
issues with CPU scaling, which are my only initial thoughts. There are
some instructions out there on messing with X and the intel drivers to
try to address the issues, but I didn't know if there was a more
specific LTSP solution, or if it was a common problem with Jaunty.
Here is my lts.conf (it's very minimal). The LTSP server is a Dell
Poweredge 1950 with a quadcore intel xeon 2.66ghz with 4gb of ram
(soon to be 8). The thin clients (6 of them currently, soon to be 9)
are all MSI Wind PCs (1.6ghz atom processor, 2gb ram, intel GMA 950
onboard video card). The LTSP server also does some other work, like
samba, and a LAMP stack for some local web apps.

[default]
     MODULE_01 = usbkbd
     SCREEN_07=ldm
     SCREEN_08=shell

So I guess my questions are: is this a common problem, and are there
any obvious steps I should take to address it or to isolate it?

Thanks much,
