X-terminal (LTSP client) configuration

by Marko Vendelin last modified 2009-09-07 09:34

To add new X-terminal (LTSP client) or change its configuration:

  1. add entry to /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
  2. configure LTSP client using LTSP configuration file and, if needed, create new xorg.conf. For this, entry should be added to (/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf) /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf . XOrg configuration files are stored in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/Terminals
  3. Kernels and PXElinux configuration of LTSP clients is at /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386 , as indicated in dhcp.conf .

 

Note, that you can install additional software (and fonts!) for LTSP clients by

chroot /opt/ltsp/i386
apt-get install ... ( or any other regular install programs )

 

Don't use LTSP root for installing 32-bit applications. For that, install programs in /opt/IA32 - 32-bit libraries are installed already.

 

Additional notes

  • Floppy support (as a local device) has been disabled by commenting out corresponding event handler in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/udev/rules.d/88-ltsp.rules
  • For fiesta, DisplaySize had to be added in xorg.conf to get 96dpi resolution. check resolution for all terminals ( xdpyinfo )
