Re: [Ltsp-discuss] slow client performance

[Xavier B. <xa...@al...>]

I use Thincan too (but more recent ones)
There was some problemq with the geode display driver:
- it was not in the chroot by default
install xserver-xorg-video-geode in the chroot and update your image

- it was not allways launched by XWindow 
edit the lts.conf file with something like this:
[Thincan_DBE_61]
        XSERVER = geode
	X_COLOR_DEPTH=16
	LDM_DIRECTX=True
	X_RAMPERC=80
	 LDM_SYSLOG = False

Then for each thincan mac adress
[00:18:2D:00:0B:AE]     # Thincan DBE 61
        LIKE = Thincan_DBE_61
