I'm partial to Debian, although the support cycle for a given release has typically been about 3 years. There are efforts under way to extend that to 5 years: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS Debian is in process of releasing a new version (Jessie/8.0), so if you need something in production immediately, it might not be the best choice. I think Debian Jessie is the most current LTSP implementation out there at the moment. My next choice would probably be one of Ubuntu's LTS releases (5 year support?), although LTSP hasn't been seing updates in Ubuntu lately... OpenSuSE does seem to keep a variant of LTSP called kiwi-ltsp up to date, from what I can tell at a distance. :) No promises that switching distros will solve your problems, as it may very well be incompatibilities in newer Xorg versions, and any recent distro is likely to have the same issues. You've already switched from OpenSuSE to CentOS without improvement, so chances are it's some other issue... It might be an issue with flow-control on mixed gigabit/100mbit networks: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/FlowControl live well, vagrant
