Hi Chris, the first thing I would check is which version of open thin client
you're running. If you installed open client from the downloadable jar
you're probably on one of the older versions. You can check by going to
Package Management > Installed packages. If the base isn't 1.0.0-9 or
greater you'll need to upgrade. To do that
Add this line:
# Experimental
deb http://archive.openthinclient.org/openthinclient/v1/manager-experimental
./
to this file:
c:\Program
Files\openthinclient\server\default\data\nfs\root\etc\sources.list
You may also want to comment out the testing repository. We tried using
1.0.0-11 and had problems with it.
Then right click on Package Management and select search for updates. When
that's done restart the openthinclient service and check the installable
packages and the updatable packages for a new base.

Subject: [openthinclient-user] freerdp package
hello,
first of all, if there are any devs reading this, thanks for your hardwork!
openthinclient seems like an amazing product. my large (500 employees)
nonprofit is trying to find a better solution then thinstation, as package
management and profile management is a mess with thinstation.
i am up and running with openthinclient, testing on a wyse vx0. i am trying
to get freerdp to work, as rdesktop cannot handle connecting to a
loadbalanced r2 farm (i have updated the package, but it fails at any
redirection from the farm). i have the freerdp package installed, but trying
to use the icon created does not work. after running it, i am let with a
busy cursor for about 5 secs before i am dropped right back into the
desktop. if i try to run xfreerdp from the command line, i get dependency
errors. these can be fixed by adding four paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but then
i get very buggy behavior. i can connect to a 2003 machine, but trying to
connect to the loadbalanced farm results in segfaults.
does anyone have a working freerdp package up and running, hopefully without
having to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running?
thanks for your time,
chris
