[Ltsp-discuss] ltsp-build-client.conf and fat-clients

[Finn A. <xip...@gm...>]

Hi!

I'm about to install LTSP on Debian Jessie and tried to enter values into
the  configuration file  /etc/ltsp/ltsp-build-client.conf, to build a
fat-client image.

I defined this variable
FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS="mate-desktop-environment"

But mate is not installed in the image after i run ltsp-build-client. I
know I can use the following commands afterwards. "ltsp-chroot -m;apt-get
install mate-desktop-environment"

But isn't the build-script supposed to use the FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS
variable? Is it a bug?


I've read somewhere that the --fat-client parameter is Ubuntu specific, and
does not apply to Debian. The Debian Jessie server is installed headless -
no X, just text console.


Could anyone shed som light on this?

Thanks,
Finn
