[Bug 800208] Re: nvidia graphics not working

 

Solution for LTSP:
1) On the server, install nv drivers.
$ sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nv

2) On the server, edit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf to contain
the following (replacing the 00's with the client's MAC address):

## START ##
[default]

[00:00:00:00:00:00]
     X_CONF=/etc/X11/nv-xorg.conf

[00:00:00:00:00:00]
     X_CONF=/etc/X11/nv-xorg.conf
## END ##

3) On the server, create a custom /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/nv-xorg.conf
file for these client within the LTSP chroot directory (also know as the
client remote filesystem directory):

$ sudo nano /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/nv-xorg.conf

Edit /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/nv-xorg.conf to contain the following:

## START ##
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "nv"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
## END ##

4) On the server, rebuild the image:
$ sudo ltsp-update-image -p 2000 -b /opt/ltsp -a i386

+ 400] [10de:0110] (rev b2) as a thin client - LTSP.  No graphics display
