HP t5565 [SOLVED]

Post#1 by **acumatt** » 23 Nov 2017, 17:58

Hello,

I have a few HP t5565 Thinclients I'd like to deploy as digital signage. I seem to be having issues with the VIA VX900 display adapters. When booting a Kiosk installer the screen loses signal, however when installing the Thinclient version it runs through fine.

I've rebuilt the Kiosk installer to force VESA and I can get it installed fine but I need the higher resolution and rotation a proper driver would support. Is there anyway to pull the graphics drivers out of the Thinclient version and push them into the Kiosk installer?

"When booting a Kiosk installer the screen loses signal, however when installing the Thinclient version it runs through fine."
That makes no sense as both systems use exactly the same kernel and drivers.

Please boot ThinClient version, generate debug report in the wizard and send it to [email protected]:

"I've rebuilt the Kiosk installer to force VESA and I can get it installed fine"
How did you do this? By remastering installation ISO?

Thank you.

Sorry, I'm an idiot. I was using an old version of Kiosk and it was not working for me. Downloaded 4.5 and all works as advertised.
