Re: [Ltsp-discuss] how to mount external hard drives? + log problem? - LTSP 5 on Ubuntu 8.04
I'm really unsure as to why Ubuntu gets all this hate directed against them because they don't backport new features from more current releases into older ones. As far as I know, LTSP current isn't being backported into either Fedora 3 or Debian Sarge. LTS means they fix the security and crasher bugs for an extended period of time. Period. Scott It is because they recommend you install the latest non-lts to see if your problems are fixed.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] how to mount external hard drives? + log problem? - LTSP 5 on Ubuntu 8.04
I am going to leave it with this: I didn't speak of LTSP in any negative way, I was simply making a statement about _MY_ experiences with the current LTS (bugs in this instance). Some are related to LTSP but not always, most are problems known about for greater than 1 year in mainline Ubuntu. If my comment about LTS releases offends you or pisses you off I don't know what to say. But, I am not sorry for saying it. If you want to continue this please feel free to email me directly and keep the list a little cleaner. -- Dan Maranville -- Register Now Save for Velocity, the Web Performance Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.

Next issue is that Firefox has a EULA toolbar/popup thing that I don't want
showing up when the client is booted. Any thoughts on where what to edit to
get rid of that? /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/firefox-3.0/pref/firefox.js has a line

Any input is greatly appreciated.

I know how to alter the userChrome.css file in a regular firefox install to
make the browser UI look like I want but can someone give me a clue how to
make the kiosk mode UI accept my changes. The other option would be r-kiosk
extension but I'm not sure how to get other extensions installed in the ltsp
kiosk mode manually.
Any clues on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hey great, that worked. I was able to build my chroot environment in 3 minutes flat (since all the debs were already cached).
