[K12OSN] Updates now available for LTSP-4.2

[JohnG]

I've installed K12LTSP 5 beta 4 and it works great. I also installed LTSP-4.2 as per the instructions and everything seems to be working fine. 

Probably silly newbie questions, but how can I tell which version(s) is installed on an LTSP server? Also how can I tell which version a client is running? Is there something to look for when it's booting up? Which version did beta 4 have?

Thanks in advance!

Subject: [K12OSN] Updates now available for LTSP-4.2

The following updates are now available:

  o  ltspcfg version 0.16 (part of ltsp-utils-0.25)
     - Added the proper location for the kdmrc file for
       Kubuntu-breezy.
     - Added 'ddns-update-style' line in dhcpd.conf.sample, for FC5.
     - Fixed configuration of kdm and gdm for many distros, including
       Ubuntu Breezy & Dapper and Fedora Core 5.
     - Fixed 'Enable' detection of Xdmcp for kdm.

  o  vidlist
     - Added several i810 entries for proper auto-detection of
       i810 chipsets.
     - Added several nv entries for proper auto-detection of
       nvidia chipsets.

  o  startx
     - Changed behaviour of the 'XRAMPERC' option to default
       to 100.  Also, if it is set to 100, then it won't do
       the 'ulimit' command.  This was causing problems with
       i810 chipsets on 64mb or lower machines.

  o  Linux kernel 2.6.16.1-ltsp-2
     - Added sis7019 audio driver.
     - Removed savage framebuffer driver. This caused problems
       for Xorg.
     - Fixed problem with booting the kernel on Jammin-125
       workstations.


If you are interested in installing these updates, you should first 
install the
newest ltsp-utils package, availabe at:

   http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LTSP-42

Then, run 'ltspadmin' and choose the updated packages you wish to install.

Enjoy the updates.  Scott Balneaves and I are heading down to Brazil 
later today, to speak at FISL-7.0 in Porto Alegre.
