Description Peter Åstrand cendio 2005-12-27 10:55:55 CET
Currently, we are shipping files that are specific to TLCOS in most client packages:

tlcontrol
X-tlcontrol
tlclient-login

These files doesn't make sense on other distros than TLCOS; we do not support
running these scripts on other distros (although Motala does run these on FC2).
In bug 391, we decided that the -x flag should be reserved from TLCOS. In that
case, perhaps the flag should even be hidden? 

There are two other files that doesn't make sense in, say, the RPM package:

tl-su
ctwm

As I understand it, though, these are used in the thinstation package. Perhaps
we should remove them from the other packages.

Need to verify thinstation functionality after doing this. 
Comment 2 Peter Åstrand cendio 2012-06-27 10:15:33 CEST
Even though bug 391 is closed, I'd say that the current policy is that "-x" *is* supported on other platforms than TLCOS. For example, it's documented in the TAG. 

Current list of files for -x mode:

/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/tlcontrol

Current list of files specific to TLCOS, ie start X server etc:

/opt/thinlinc/bin/tlclient-xdm
/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/tl-su
/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/tlclient-xdmstartup
/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/xdmstartup.d
/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/xdmstartup.d/00-startwm.sh
/opt/thinlinc/lib/tlclient/xdmstartup.d/90-loop-client.sh

We're removing TLCOS in this release so do this now as well.
