Hi friends,

I am back to Kinshasa now. Visiting the 5 schools, which we equiped in October 
2003 with RULE-PCs was surprising  - at least for someone who grew up with 
Windows (me). Most, if not all of the installations worked still fine, only some 
problems with Abiword, which could be solved by deleting some files in the 
useres home directory. So again thanks to everyone who conributed this great 
software!

For the moment we are busy on starting up a "Cyber" (local expression for 
Internetcafe) in one of the schools. We installed LTSP 4 on one rulified PC 
(Slinky 0.3.97b-vumbox which is mostly the same as Slinky 0.3.96). But I do not 
get to the point, where a client can really login to the LTS (Terminalserver).

This topic has been dicussed a lot on the LTSP-list, I got some really helpfull 
hints, f.e. how to integrate iceWM, but now I am at the point, where people 
there asked me first to achive a graphical login (xdm) on the LTS, before 
expecting the clients to work. So now how to enable xdm locally on Slinky? I 
would be very thankfull for hints, even if someone can point me to a good online 
documentation on X, no problem with downloads anymore, we have a fine connection 
here now since few days.

For completeness the error I get:
~/.xsession-errors:
   X connection to ws008.ltsp:0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
   IceWM: using /home/u1/.icewm for private configuration files
   Xlib: connection to "ws008.ltsp:0.0" refused by server
   Xlib: No protocol specified

Thanks in advance, Ingo.
