Ah, ok. I could not find much information about that model in the net given that HPs acquisition of Neoware completely removed all older documentation... :-\ It's got a 300 MHz CPU and 32 MB RAM (probably SD-RAM, SO-DIMM), right? > before even started to test OTC server), but I'm afraid that 32 MB of > RAM is not enough to work with OpenThinClient OS.

BTW, which packages are > requiered to boot thin client with minimal functionality? Removing packages does not really save *much* RAM, because the packages are not downloaded completely, but simply mounted as SquashFS images via NFS, so the overhead per package should be small. Required packages would be: - base (the linux) - openthinclient-* (the server parts) - initscripts-tcos (without that the tc would not get configured) - python-tcos (supplies LDAP access functions etc.) That should suffice. You would also need the rdesktop-package. Hmmm, the OpenThinClient distribution is more suited for the current hardware generation (128+ MB RAM, 800+ MHz), but if you add enough RAM, the rdesktop connection should be ok even with 300 MHz. -- Bye, Tobias Abt levigo systems gmbh ----------- ein unternehmen der levigo gruppe Max-Eyth-Strasse 30 Telefon: 07031 / 4161-10 D-71088 Holzgerlingen Telefax: 07031 / 4161-11 Geschäftsführer: Oliver Bausch http://systems.levigo.de/ Registergericht: Stuttgart HRB 245 180 USt-ID: DE813226078 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
