Thanks for the info. Can't use nouveau with these. Or, at least, couldn't the last time I tried. The first time I tried, I couldn't even get Ubuntu (Natty) to give graphics enough to install directly on the client. For this system, the clients are all nvidia, though. The server is ATI. I'm not so worried about breaking the server's local-console graphics, but that might explain why there are sometimes translation issues to the clients.
