Hi

ATM we are running ThinOS on our 3040 clients, but i need to have access to a browser without logging onto a server(and using 1 of 2 connection licenses). Therefor I can understand that ThinOS is not the answer so i would like to install a new OS.(linux)

Is that possible ?

thanks in advance

Jim Lathan

Greetings! My name is Jim Lathan, I am the owner and operator of Technicalhelp.de also known as WyseHelp.com. Over the 20 years I served in in many roles to include most recently as an Advisory Systems Engineer for Dell. My history with Wyse starts years before the Dell acquisition. Before the purchase of Wyse, I and a hand full of system engineers guided dell to desktop virtualization leading to Dell developing its first Thin Client. Having kickstarted the VDI strategy, I moved to the Client Product Group where I co-launched Dells VDI-in-a-box and participated in the vetting of the thin client industry which led to Dell purchasing Wyse. After the acquisition, I moved back into a systems engineer role to help educate and promote the new Dell / Wyse solutions thoughout the sales organizations. Years later, I have been active in providing feedback and new product evaluations for Wyse and other VDI related solutions. I am also continuing to educate myself and build experiences with Citrix, VMware, Microsoft, iGel, Stratodesk, and other cloud-based solutions. My friends know me as Diginerd. So, what makes me a Diginerd? My other technical passions is Raspberry Pi’s, 3D printers, laser cutters, Ham radio, and I love to learn about technologies big and small, old and new. My hobbies include renovating Commodore 64s, old school electronics and learning Linux. I also enjoy camping and being with my family. I want to finish by thanking Thomas for a tremendous job of building Techincalhelp. I pledge to you all that I will give it my all and do my best to fill his shoes.
