Here in Finland school's out for summer, so I downloaded, burned and
booted openSUSE-Edu-Live-Li-f-e; then I hooked up HP Mini 2133 as a thin
client.

Looks awesome :)


Very very well done Jigish et all other openSUSE developers!


All credits to KIWI and openSUSE Build Service guys who wrote the
imaging technology we are using to create the live images. Very soon
we will have usb stick images including the same goodies that is in
li-f-e DVD.

Future plans for openSUSE 11.2:

* Integrate stgraber's ltsp-cluster work
* Jan weber is currently rewriting Easy-LTSP[2] GUI for LTSP
management in python, the idea is that now more distributions may feel
comfortable including it getting all the benefits we have been
enjoying for some time now. Watch out for the Easy-LTSP-ng, get the
source[3] if you would like to work on it.  Feedback, suggestions
always welcome.

I really really love to see all of these things in upstream so every
LTSP5 distro can use them.

I hope so too, it was disappointing to see easy-ltsp not used at all
by other distros, mono fud is just too bad, now that it is python
looking forward to see it on all distros.

We have easy-ltsp packages for ubuntu in build service repositories,
we will have easy-ltsp-ng available there too.

I have one setup with two servers
(https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuDHCPload-balancingFailover) - I hope
that I can after Ubuntu 9.10 use three or four servers as easy as now
two servers.

We've tried to simplify the setup: http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Cluster
