[Ltsp-discuss] LTSP4-bug: lts.conf parse error

[Kalev L. <ka...@ki...>]

I think I have found a bug in LTSP4 release.

I recently upgraded from LTSP3 and preserved my old lts.conf file. I 
discovered the new LTSP4 does not boot on _one_ terminal. Other ones I 
have tested booted correctly (I didn't test all of them). The error 
message was:

syslogd: cannot write to remote file handle on192.168.0.254:514

192.168.0.254 is not the server that should be recieving syslog messages. 
I have set the SERVER variable correctly in lts.conf. After a little 
debugging I found that the lts.conf was causing the problem. I removed 
the following line:

X_MOUSE_DEVICE     = "/dev/ttyS0"

from the lts.conf [Default] section and it began booting correctly.

I assume that getltscfg does not parse my config file correctly.

I will attach two ltsp config files, one that is working 
(lts.conf.working) and the failing one (lts.conf.failing). You can diff 
those files yourself.

Besides that I also found that the /etc/vidlist file is out of date. It 
was already reported by someone else on the list.
