Okay, these are servers we are talking about. Why are they running X and
a wm/Desktop Environment anyway? Servers need only a console -
especially if you plan to expose them to the Internet! Reason for not
using KDE (or GNOME for that matter) on your **servers**: they shouldn't
be running a gui in the first place!! Now, running the ltsp setup is a
different matter altogether.
