thin client manager

[Bob Wooden]

I have been attempting to install x11vnc on our clients.  I previously 
followed the "old" InstallX11VncOnLtspClients and got similar errors.

I have now followed the "new" InstallX11VncOnLtspClients (listed below) 
and they are much better, thank you.  But, I am still receiving the 
following error messages:

And now I could use any good suggestions.  Please help.

    If the above document is wrong and these steps are required to make it
    work, _please_ go ahead and fix the wiki.
