I have downloaded k12ltsp. It is a pity we didn't discuss it last Monday as I had brought the CD with me. I left it with Paul in the school for them to experiment with. I am part way through setting it up here as a demo for the Carmarthenshire secondary school technicians. It seems to work fairly well but is still work in progress. I am not finding it very easy as it is based on Red Hat and I usually use SuSE or debian. I hope to have some news on that fairly soon. They have produced a new version since I downloaded it and I am going to check out the differences now. I will probably go back to working directly from the ltsp site as that supports suse and debian as well as red hat. ____________________________________ Giles Nunn - Network Manager Carms Schools ICT Development Centre Tel: +44 01239 710662 Fax: 710985 ____________________________________ On Wed, 21 Mar 2001, Mr Miles Berry wrote:
There's a thread on /. about an education specific thin client distribution from the US k12linux folk at http://slashdot.org/articles/01/03/21/0013246.shtml, pointing to the project home page at http://www.riverdale.k12.or.us/linux/k12ltsp.html. Open source, non-commercial and certainly worth looking into. If anyone has access to a broad band connection and a CD writer, could they please burn me an image?
