PoyBoy Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 I have a KVM, I’m going to use one with my Mac Pro and one with my main Windows box, and the other ten will be used with my thin clients that are doted around my house. Uh, sure. what exactly do ten thin clients provide you with that you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metatron Posted October 14, 2006 Author Share Posted October 14, 2006 What u using to run thin clients Meta? Debian/LTSP (The thin clients are also running Debian) Uh, sure. what exactly do ten thin clients provide you with that you need? I keep my servers/desktops in my office and have thin clients in every room except my office and bathrooms. There used for basically the same thing you would use a standard PC for, the big difference being your not going to have any luck if you what to play games and they have a much smaller foot print then a PC so they take up a lot less room, plus they have no moving parts so no noise.

Shardz Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Returning this thread to keyboards, I'm in the market for a good, reliable wireless keyboard and mouse combo for my bedroom (where wires would be unrealistic). Price isn't really a problem, but the less I spend, the better (as it generally is). As far as KVMs and whatnot, have you guys ever heard of Synergy? http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ I'm setting this up both in my office and home, it's quicker than a KVM switch, and it's much better graphics-wise than other alternatives, like VNC. (Plus it doesn't require special hardware, like a KVM switch does.) I have no idea what the maximum number of computers you can have on it, but you can configure which side of the screen you want it to use, so it's ideal for vertical + horizontal setups (like the ones they advertise on those rediculously huge "media desks" or whatever they are.) However, for FVWM-Crystal and E16/E17 users, that could be an anoyance, since you couldn't switch virtual desktops without it switching physical desktops. Off to catch some ZzZ's.

Atari6502 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Hmmm Synergy, that sounds familiar. http://www.hak5.org/wiki/index.php?title=Episode_2x01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoyBoy Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 /whispers "synergy was featured on episode 2x01(?) and Darren uses it all the time at work. That said, welcome to the forums, and keeping bringing good things to the attention of us. Even if we have heard of it, its likely to start a good conversation!

VaKo Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Some of us do actually like that soviet design asthetic... ie it works, and will probally still be working long after we're departed. I admit that the logitech gaming keyboards look kinda snazzy, but could you beat a n00b down with one and still be able to code with it?

Loki Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Personally I like the Logitech G15 gamming keyboard http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/7a71/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbjazzman Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Personally I like the Logitech G15 gamming keyboardhttp://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/7a71/ I've got one and I like it too, but Meta said he didn't need all the extra gaming buttons. Those Das keyboards look badass, and if I had a machine that needed a keyboard, I'd be all over that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
