|
<P>
|
|
<P>We could play around with a NCD ThinSTAR for a while. Although MS NT Terminal and
|
|
Citrix Meta- & Winframe are the only supported OS systems ("Powered by Windows CE" is on
|
|
the cover ...), it works fine with Linux too. This is how !
|
|
<P>The machine we had, was a NCD ThinkSTAR 200. It is powered by a 100MHz MIPS 4300 processor
|
|
and had the default 8MB of RAM memory. NCD has a also other products in the ThinSTAR family.
|
|
These might also work, but we haven't the opportunity to check those. If you have any of those,
|
|
feel free to add any comments. Or send them to us to experiment.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<P>This HOWTO will present one way to setup your ThinSTAR to be used in a Linux environment.
|
|
This isn't much of a big deal, but for what it's worth I'll descripe the needed steps here.
|
|
<P>This MINI Howto is not trying to be the Bible on NC's and Linux, its
|
|
trying to be something for you to get started from nowhere. Contributions
|
|
to this NC are welcome. In fact this HOWTO is fully based on the NC-HOWTO
|
|
by Kris Buytaert in which he describes how to setup the IBM Network Station.
