LedHedis this the right place to ask Ubuntu/LTSP related questions?00:58
LedHedI just installed ltsp-standalone via apt,  I have a thin client booting via pxe, but after login, it goes to the CLI on SCREEN_07.  How do I get a X Session (or LDM) to start?01:00
LedHedI tried making changes to /vat/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf, but the changes dont seem to effect the thinclients01:01
mhall119LedHed: unfortunately all the LTSP guys are on European time01:06

LedHedgood morning,  I just installed ltps-server-standalone.  My thinclients are booting to a Ubuntu login prompt.  I attempted to create a user account by chrooting to /opt/ltsp/i386,  then issuing the 'adduser' command, then I ran ltsp-update-image. I then rebooted the clients, but I'm unable sign in via the new user account I created.15:55
LedHedI guess I was supposed to add the user account to the server rather than the chroot16:10
sbalneavLedHed: Yes, correct.16:15
LedHedsbalneav, after logging in, I get a Shell on SCREEN_07,  is this the default behavior?16:16
LedHedI though I would get an X session (GUI)16:16
sbalneavHave you created an lts.conf file?  If not, the default behaviour SHOULD be a graphical login, but it's possible the video hardware in the thin client isn't being detected correctly.16:17
LedHedmy test client is a VirtualBox VM.  I'll try a physical device.  Thanks.16:18
LedHedI do get a Graphical Login Prompt with the Ubuntu logo.16:19
sbalneavcool.16:26

LedHeddo I have to have X installed on the server if I want to be able to run X on the clients?17:08
mhall119no17:15
mhall119well, you don't need the X server running17:15
mhall119you will need Xlibs I think17:15
LedHedI installed Ubuntu 10.04 server,  then installed ltsp-server-standalone.17:16
LedHedThe only thing in my lts.conf is [default]  LDM_AUTOLOGIN=True  LDM_USERNAME=user  LDM_PASSWORD=***,17:17
LedHedwhen the clients boot up,  I get a X mouse pointer,  then a xterm,17:18
LedHedbut no GUI17:18
LedHedit was my understanding that the default behavior was for the clients to boot to a GUI.17:19
