I just checked a fresh install and ltspadmin also reports
that XDMCP is not running. Ltspadmin used to recognize
the default K12LTSP install settings, I'll have to look
to see what changed.

DNS problems can also cause the grey-screen-of-death.

Kjell, can you tell us a little bit about your setup?
Is it a default install (two ethernet cards, with eth0
having the IP address of 192.168.0.254)?

Did you do anything different or special?
