[Spice-devel] Thin Client (Igor Neves)

Fri Jun 4 03:35:18 PDT 2010

What I have done is patched "proxmox" [
http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Main_Page] to include "enable spice-client", 
"port", and "mac-address" (a simplistic way to bind a client to 
thinclient)... so that provides a managment infrastructure for me.. I've 
done minimum hacking on proxmox, just to enable my development enviornemtn 
to easily start stop virt machines, but it's a very good start to develop 
upon...

Re: [Spice-devel] Thin Client (Igor Neves)

Hi,

This is for big production environments, imagine about 400 thin clients, 
working together with workstation clusters.

Administrators will need some thin client management, maybe we will 
develop that all integrated with the Spice and Home made thin clients.

We will see about that.
Thanks very much.

Then pretty much any thin client would work, you just need to make sure 
that the thin client's video card is supported by stable video driver. i 
had an issue with the s3 driver that was causing random crashes. also with 
the ati on the wyse dual head thin client. so rather go with the "trial " 
client first until you get one that works. also, I'm looking at the 
strategy of booting my clients off the PXE, seems to make the most sense 
to me... 

what kind of a management console are u looking for?

Hi,

I think I should start for single monitor.

Are you looking for thin clients that would support a single monitor, or 
multiple monitors? 
So far I have tried two wyse thin clients, and one hp thin client. my main 
goal is a multi-head support...

Hi,

Yes, the idea was buying something already done with management console 
for all the thin clients or something.

I can't see any in that site with that price.

Thanks,

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the great project.

I was looking for thin clients spice protocol capable, it's there any on
the market? I can't find them. 

I think your best bet right now would be an x86 based thin client.  Here's 
a site with some, but there are lots more out there.

http://www.disklessworkstations.com/thin-client.html

Personally, though, I would build the thin clients myself.  It's cheaper 
that way.  Just buy a bunch of mini-ITX Intel Atom boards and put them in 
tiny cases.  The whole kit (board/case/RAM) can be purchased for less than 
150 USD.
