Hello everyone. I posted this a couple of weeks ago and never did hear
anything back. I figure everyone was probably quite busy with the
holidays and I may have been looked over. I figured I would try once again.
I've been working on this and haven't came up with any luck so far. I
have two workstations that were working on my K12LTSP 4 box which I
cannot get to come up on the K12LTSP 5. I have three machines of the
same hardware configuration. One works, the other two do not.
I have tried to copy the lts.conf information from the one that works:
[C112]
PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0
PRINTER_0_TYPE = P
X_MODE_0 = 800x600 40 800 840 968 1056 600 601 605 628 +hsync +vsync
to the two that are not currently working:
[C113] [C116] *Note - I did not put this on the same line, I'm must
showing that both have the same config.
PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0
PRINTER_0_TYPE = P
X_MODE_0 = 800x600 40 800 840 968 1056 600 601 605 628 +hsync +vsync
In the global section, the XSERVER = "auto"
I tried adding XSERVER = "mga" to the individual lines as well to see if
that would help, it did not.
The video cards in all three are AGP Matrox Millenium II (MGA2164WA-B)
The error I am getting basically goes as follows:
Scanning for video card.. then it says to check /tmp/mnt/xorg.log for
errors (which is not in /tmp/mnt/xorg)
Then I receive xserver failed.
As mentioned earlier, I did have these working under K12LTSP 4. I did have an issue earlier when I didn't realize that the dhcpd.conf file was
changed. So if something in lts.conf has changed, that may be something I don't know.
I do have several other terminals (4 working), one of which is an identical machine as two that are not working.
I did think about trying to redo the image for the network boot, but I don't really know why that would change anything.
Thanks -
Mike
