Debain LXDE on WYSE Cx0 with winetricks and vncserver
The task: replace Windows XP on a WYSE Cx0 thin clients with Linux. The thinclients are just infopanels for statistics_diagrams-fromSQLserver.exe file. So additionally we need wine-bin and a VNC server.
Ubuntu 14 from usb-stick just hangs during install and Debian 8 stopped with “can’t install” message, so finally I have connected Sony DRX800UL external DVD-writer and install Debian Squeeze (openbox-lxde) from DVD.
First, to avoid noises on the display – remove the videodriver:
|
1 |
apt-get remove xserver-xorg-xwindow-openchrome |
Then I have removed openoffice.org, gimp, xsane, iceweasel, alsa* and so on.
Cause my windows software needs connection to SQLSERVER I have to install MDAC 2.8 through winetricks.
|
1 2 3 4 |
wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks mv winetricks /usr/local/bin/ chmod +x /usr/local/bin/winetricks winetricks mdac28 |
Next step is installing VNC server:
|
1 |
apt-get install tightvncserver x11vnc |
and command vncserver at first time will ask for password.
Further lets create autostart shortcut to loop the tightvncserver on the display :0 – /home/s.sd/.config/autostart/x11vnc.desktop:
|
1 2 3 |
[Desktop Entry] Type=Application Exec=x11vnc -display :0 -usepw -forever -shared |
Last step is adding locale:
|
1 |
dpkg-reconfigure locales |
