tsclient 0.140 that requires ICA was/is the SLED10 version. There is a now a newer tsclient 0.148 for rdesktop, vncviewer, wfica and xnest for downlaod from http://gnomepro.com/tsclient/ both as rpm, src.rpm and tar.gz. I just upgraded the rpm from 0.140 to 0.140 on openSUSE 10.1, and it looks to work ok, and I'll suggest this version. The current free NX server is version 1.5 and the knx client is version 0.1 I will suggest as optional to also have available the newer, non-OSS but Free NoMachines versions NX Free Edition for Linux Release: 2.1.0-7 http://www.nomachine.com/select-package.php?os=linux&id=1 NX Client for Linux http://www.nomachine.com/download-client-linux.php I've installed and tested this client on openSUSE 10.1 and it looks to work well. Yes, I think it would make sense to have a new pattern, maybe like "Thin client computing", default or optional for the desktop installation. Grouping all these related packages together (vnc, rdesktop, tsclient, NX servers and clients, others) make them easy to discover or find.
