Bug#261219: ThinStation image available

[Margarita Manterola]

Hi!

As I spoke with kov today, I'm making my thinstation image available, so
that anyone can try and reproduce this bug.

In http://www.marga.com.ar/~marga/debian/thinstation/

You'll find the file "ati.nbi" which is the image to boot, with Ati video
card.  If you need a different video card, please let me know, I can
generate a new image.

Also in that directory you'll find a .conf file, that you might want to
change, so that it resembles your environment.  Place both of them in the
/tftpboot directory (I think this is the default for the tftp package).

In a DHCP configuration file, include a line for the thinclient you want to
boot.

    host caronte {
        hardware ethernet 00:08:54:11:AB:14;
        fixed-address caronte.amadeus;
        filename "/tftpboot/ati.nbi";
    }

You need to have a sarge machine with XDMCP running, and specify the name
of the machine (or the IP in case you don't have name resolution) in the
.conf file

The root password of the image is "cajon1".
The image runs Xorg, and for some reason, Xorg :1 does not work.

Oh, and to boot the machine you can use any network booting utility.   I
use the images generated from http://www.rom-o-matic.net
If you need any more detailed instructions on how to do this, please let me
know.

On a secondary note, I'm suspect that the problem is not of capplets
(i.e. not of gnome-settings-daemon) but of libxklavier, since the segfault
occurs when calling the Gswitchit function of this lib.  Should we
reassign?  I don't really feel like reassigning, because I'm guessing
nobody will find it if it's not in capplets.
