in /etc/lessdisks of the terminals chroot (by default /var/lib/lessdisks/etc/lessdisks) several configuration files and additional sub dirs with config files are to be found.
when you're about to treat terminals as different, first consider the file terminal_names.conf. as example (for two terminals named moon and turtle) this file looks like:
# each line includes the name and macaddress
# other values for terminal configuration can be found in # /etc/lessdisks/terminals/$hostname
#name macaddress default none moon 00:xx:BF:D6:EA:xx turtle 00:xx:BF:D4:A8:xx
and the output from ls -al in /etc/lessdisks/terminals:
drwxrwsr-x 2 root lessdisks 4096 2005-01-17 11:39 . drwxrwsr-x 8 root lessdisks 4096 2005-01-16 15:10 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 12 2005-01-01 12:04 default -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 74 2005-01-16 20:24 moon -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 75 2005-01-16 17:05 turtle -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 3186 2004-11-03 14:13 XF86Config.default -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 2525 2004-11-04 08:25 XF86Config.moon -rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 4380 2005-01-01 13:22 XF86Config.turtle
the above listed file moon looks like this:
runlevel=5 xserver=/usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3 session="autofs printer_parallel"
this terminal will come up with a login window (XDMCP) it has a graphics card supported only by xfree version 3.3.6 so we will use that old X-Server XF86_S3. two session scripts will be executed on start up, too.
