Ubuntu LTSP reinstall

Fragged my Ubuntu LTSP install. I thought doing a


sudo apt-get remove openoffice.org;sudo apt-get install openoffice.org2

would upgrade OpenOffice.org. Well, it did, but it also removed xserver-xorg. Ack!


Dumb me.


So I tried Breezy and MueCow. No dice. The tftpd-hpa service won't start. So back to Hoary, I did.


X on the clients won't start. The XSERVER = auto directive in lts.conf didn't work for some reason. Turns out XDCMP wasn't allowing requests. I just had to remove the hash in /etc/X11/xmd/Xaccess:


#*        #any host can get a login window

Slap my forehead! Ten times. :P
