How do I disable pulse-audio -- I mean, will the sound still work on the thin clients, as I need the sound working? Also, do you know why the image is reversed on laptop thin clients?<br><br>One other thing, I tried what Stefan had said to backup users, and all my user info is there, but when I try to log-on as a user on a thin client, it will log-me for a second or two (it seems to recognize the user) but it spits me back out to the log-on screen. It doesn't say server didn't respond as usually is the case when a password is typed incorrectly.<br>
<br>On another note, I tried installed 9.10 and I'm guessing this is a huge bug -- but after adding users, and I try logging in to the thin client it doesn't recognize the user at all and you can't log-in.<br>

Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I hope this is the right list for this. I'm an 8th grade teacher and have been trying to get an Ubuntu server with thin clients set up in my classroom for the last 2 to 3 weeks. It's to the point that technical goofs and problems are driving me crazy :)<br>
<br>
First, I think this might be a huge issue. On 9.04 with the default installation with 2 ethernet cards, everyone works fine EXCEPT that when thin clients in firefox begin to watch something in flash the sound works for about the first minute and then cuts off. The sound usually goes back to the server. I have updated the latest flash according the the Wiki, along with updating the pulse audio package, and countless other things. No matter what I do, (even playing a movie in another player not based in flash) the sound will just stop from the thin client after 1 to 3 minutes of playing. I've tried everything!!! I even tried running firefox locally. The only thing that worked was installing Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and the sound works flawlessly.<br>
<br>
BUT with that, it looks like I'm not able to run applications locally on the 8.04 version, and I will have 6 or 7 students watching tutorial flash videos all with sound. This is a big strain on the server and was really hoping to be able to run applications locally. Am I able to run applications locally on the thin client with version 8.04?<br>
<br>
Also, with 9.04 on laptops the thin client image would be backwards (all the letter would be reversed) but with 8.04 I don't have that problems. It certainly seems like 8.04 has all the bugs out of it, but it's lacking being able to run applications locally on the thin client?<br>
<br>
I've looked all over google and just can't believe that no one else is having the problem with the sound or the reverse image on laptops as thin clients with 9.04. Is 9.10 fixing these problems?<br>
<br>
Also, now that I have all my student user date in the Users and Groups, is there anyway I can backup this (user name and password info) so that if I need to reinstall my system I don't have to retype all the username and password info again?<br>
<br>
Thanks so much,<br>
<br>
Tim<br></div></div>
