Linux client
Hi,
When I boot my linux client It seems to work fine, but then I get this Error: "ERROR: Auto probe of the video card failed ! You need to specify the proper X server in lts.conf"
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

we can, this isnt exactly a networking question, its better suited to the X forum, but regaurdless, what distro do you run? and what videocard do you have? the quickest solution would be to run
xorgconfig
--or--
xfreeconfig
and select all the info yourself, to create an xorg.conf or xfree.conf

its ok, don't crack the whip on yourself, exactly how far into the boot do you get? you mention KDE, so X works on some level. Unfortunetly, you may need to talk to your sysadmin, this is something that without root access, it might be a little hard to fix, depending on his default config. But basicaly, its trying to guess the values for your monitor/graphics card, and failing, since this is a laptop, its possible that the LCD screen is part of the problem (significantly slower sync rates) if you have acess to a CRT, it might we worthwhile to try that and see what results it can produce.
