Yes, that was the best way to go.  Excellent documentation.

I installed into the chroot Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Reader.  From all
indications that went okay.  I then did an ltsp-update-image.  When firing
up a thin-client, I get the pretty little Ubuntu graphical logo and status
bar.  It goes through that, then it displays the mouse cursor, then the
screen goes black and nothing else.  It is at this point where we normally
get the Ubuntu login screen.  We don't do anything like LDAP/NIS, etc.

I've rebooted the machine.  I can log into the console okay.  I can even log
in via VNC, if that matters.  All else looks well.  All thin-clients get the
black screen.

How can I either get this to fire up, or at least revert back to a workable
environment (preferably before Monday morning!) :).  I have no idea as to
where to even begin tracking this down.

Thanks.
