So - I have a brand new Mythtv Frontend. Of course I tested it as a thin
client, too.
Intel Atom 330 - dualcore 1,6GHz
NVIDIA® ION™ GPU

My test environment is Stéphane Graber's LTSP-cluster - Root and
application servers are Jaunty based.

1.
Resolution was wrong (I use LCD 1680x1050): 1600x1200.
Here is log file from chroot:

2.
I installed nvidia-glx-180 in chroot. My notes are here:

3.
Resolution was after that wrong (1600x1200), but NVidia drivers are there:

4.
I changed to CTRL-ALT-F1 and login as a root to the chroot and run
'nvidia-xconfig'
5.
When I logged again - X restarted - resolution was right one: 1680x1050.

Now simple question: how I keep that right xorg.conf, after running
'nvidia-xconfig', because chroot loses it every time when thin client boots?
