[K12OSN] K12LTSP status

[William Fragakis]

Newer realtek nics aren't detected and then kernel panic. I didn't get
the time to see if I could alias them to an older chipset.

It's been a little while since I've hacked around in the bowels
of /opt/ltsp/i386/etc. I probably could give it a good go but I'd rather
spend that time getting stuff updated. Having used ltsp 5 for the last
year and a half, I like the way it takes advantage of newer chipsets
(say, video).

I use Atoms at home and on a gigabit connection to the server, Flash
runs well, and even full screen is tolerable. On Robert's suggestion,
I'm going to look at drbl.

Thanks,
William
