[K12OSN] quirky behaviour

Sounds like the XDM server isn't running. What's happening is that the
X11 server in /opt/ltsp/i386 (the one the thin client loads and runs) is
indeed starting, but when it goes to do the xdm query, nothing's
responding. Do a "ps ax | grep gdm" and see if anything shows up. If
not, then you might be running kdm, so do "ps ax | grep kdm", and see if
anything shows up. Failing that, try the same thing for the original
one, which goes by the totally original name of...xdm. :-)
Let us know your results.
