Now, we will eventually want local applications and similar things, but we aren't to that stage yet. First, we simply want to see how it works. So, to start with, i downloaded the k12linux i386 live cd and installed it to a virtual machine with vmware. After the install, i tried ltsp-vmclient. This seemed to work at first, but near the end of the loading(which seems to take an abnormally long time, though i'm putting that down to the double virtualization) there is a pulseaudio sefault and then the x server starts to load and the client crashes. Any idea what the problem is? The following errors show up in terminal after running ltsp-vmclient:(sound not working isn't a problem, we don't have speakers anyway) + qemu-kvm -soundhw all -hda /dev/null -boot n -m 256 -net nic,model=e1000 -net tap,script=/usr/sbin/ltsp- qemu-bridge-ifup open /dev/kvm: No such file or directory Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support oss: Could not initialize DAC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory oss: Could not initialize DAC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory audio: Failed to create voice `pcspk' pcspk: Could not open voice oss: Could not initialize DAC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory oss: Could not initialize DAC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory audio: Failed to create voice `es1370.dac2' oss: Could not initialize ADC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory oss: Could not initialize ADC oss: Failed to open `/dev/dsp' oss: Reason: No such file or directory audio: Failed to create voice `es1370.adc' /builddir/build/BUILD/kvm-74/qemu/tcg/tcg.c:1167: tcg fatal error /usr/sbin/ltsp-vmclient: line 7: 3316 Aborted qemu-kvm $SOUNDDEV -hda /dev/null -boot n -m 256 $VGAOPTION $NICMODEL -net tap,script=/usr/sbin/ltsp-qemu-bridge-ifup Thanks, Chris Carpenter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We were able to create a virtual network on this machine and make a second virtual machine that pxe boots from the first. Seems to be working!

Are nfs and ltsp-dhcpd running on the server? service nfs status service rpcbind status service ltsp-dhcpd status Is iptables stopped? service iptables status Is ltsp-client installed on the server?

Iptables was NOT stopped, but after stopping it the problem still occurred. ltsp-client is also not installed. I have to leave work in 30 minutes, so i'll probably have to continue troubleshooting monday morning. However, just to clarify, I do get to the fedora loading bar(plymouth i believe?) but it doesn't get very far before showing the error, and the error shows up right after eth0 is brought up.
