I am having a couple problems with the LTSP thin clients with respect to local devices (usb flash drives), that I was hoping one of you could lend some help :-)</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) When using amd64 client build (on a 64bit client) I can't get local devices to work at all.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2) When using i386 build, I can get them to work, but only if I specify "allow_root" or "allow_others" in the fuse.conf file. Is there an explanation on the fuse.conf file somewhere, and what its purpose is? Am I supposed to change this configuration in the fuse.conf file for local devices? (I tried man fuse, man fuse.conf with no results, so I assume it doesn't exist.)</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) When the local device is recognized, it shows up on ALL desktops for all users, but only the user with the usb stick on his/her client can actually view and read the files. But for the other users, they see the local device on the desktop and gnome automatically tries to open it in nautilus which results in an error message. With many users, I can predict this will be beyond annoying. Is there any way to make it so that the local device shows up ONLY on the desktop/workspace for the user than actually has the usb stick?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) Still using the i386 client builds... when I specify LDM_DIRECTX=True in the lts.conf file (/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386), the local devices (usb flash drives) are no longer recognized and do not appear. Is this a bug? Or is there something I am missing to allow this to work?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance for your help :-) </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
