LTSP3 needs 16-20MB RAM on the ThinClient when NOT using a Font-Server. I have no experience with Font-Servers. I heard rumors that Fontservers have problems when used by many Clients(=X Servers). So far noone could answer my question if XFree86 needs more RAM with or without using a Font-Server. > In LTSP 4 you can read /proc so you could > get the memory statistics and other pertinent easily.

It lets you read any file or directory on the ThinClient, also /proc > Anyone here that can help suggest what specific info is relevant to grab > (and maybe even have a script to do it). /proc shows numbers, every number is a Process(it's Process ID) and is also a dircetory tah contains more info about the process. /proc/<PID>/cmdline tells you the name of the program /proc/<PID>/status shows yout the memory usage /proc/meminfo shows you (in total) how much RAM & Swap is used for all processes. > ...which is the reason for LTSP 3 not being part of Debian! is LTSP 4 already part of Debian ?
