    You need to use nautilus --no-desktop. That should fix your problem with the icons.

    • Add alternative tab-based viewmode. Daniel Molkentin

    So I guess that's a "yes."

    Autologin does work in GDM:
    You misread me. I said different users across different machines. For example:
    • ws001: login as user001
    • ws002: login as user002
    ...
    I have been with LTSP since Jim was using XDM (maybe close to five years?), so I've talked to him opn IRC before. I think he just recommends KDM because that's what he always uses and is much more flexible.
    Anyway, you stated that this was Gnome 2.6, right? This message indicates that the bug you're referring should've been fixed since June 2003, so I'm confused.
    I'm not saying that you are wrong, because I've been out of thin terminals for a few months and I don't often read my LTSP mailing list, these days, but I'll say again that I never had that problem with Gnome 2.6.
    What are you running that you get this? Email me off-line, and maybe I can make some recommendations. If not, just implement the workaround as you referenced.
    If you really are having serious problems, just drop in K12LTSP on the server, and you should be ready to run. Eric does a wonderful job with that distro , and has for years. Thin-clients out of the box!

    I thought that Jim's main reason for using KDM for everything was automatic login for different users across different machines, which GDM isn't capable of doing.
    BTW, I used GDM from Gnome 2.6 on a network of about 8 computers and never experienced the problem that you are having, despite being on for weeks/months. How's your .conf file look?

    Well, my Korean is mostly nil, because I've been in country for short while, and I do live in a small town (though travel to the capital of the province sometimes), so I may have seen fewer than my share.

    Well, that's not exactly what I meant...
    I live in Gangwondo Province, about three hours out of Seoul, so maybe I don't see the books you are talking about.

    But I wasn't interested in English books anyway. In Thailand, the were literally thirty books in Thai in little podunk bookstores. The one book that I saw in Korea was one book produced in Korea in Korean. That's what I meant, so you can fill me in on how many books you see in Seoul about Linux in Korean, and I'll be excited to hear it.

  12. Re:Linux in Asia, already strong. on Intel Helping Asia to Use Linux · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I was a little disappointed when I moved from Thailand to Korea. The Linux presense here is almost nil. In Thailand, however, you can't walk into a shopping center without seeing a computer pre-built with Linux on it, and it's mentioned in every mailer for the major hypermarkets as coming free with their computers.

    There, the book store shelves are stocked full of books about how to use Linux ON THE DESKTOP. On the other hand, I have found a single book on RH9.0 in my five months in S. Korea.

    Summarized as: the Linux presense is spotty...

    The richest men in the world, who got their money semi-legally, almost always turn into philanthropists as they get older. It's a psychological need of theirs, so that they don't feel 100% evil for what they've done in their lives.

    BG is not the first to throw huge amounts of money around. A hundred years ago, it was the steel magnates. There have been other industries since, but it's IT's turn to give back what it illegitimately gained.
