The "DebianEdu/Documentation/Bullseye/Requirements" page has been changed by WolfgangSchweer:

Comment:
adjust for re-written LTSP

  == Hardware requirements ==
  The purpose of the different profiles is explained in the [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Bullseye/Architecture|network architecture]] chapter.
  
- /!\ If LTSP is intended to be used, take a look at the [[https://wiki.debian.org/LTSP/Ltsp%20Hardware%20Requirements|LTSP Hardware Requirements wiki page]].
+ (!) If LTSP is intended to be used, take a look at the [[https://wiki.debian.org/LTSP/Ltsp%20Hardware%20Requirements|LTSP Hardware Requirements wiki page]].
  
- FIXME * The computers running Debian Edu / Skolelinux must have either 32 bit (Debian architecture 'i386', oldest supported processors are 686 class ones) or 64 bit (Debian architecture 'amd64') x86 processors.
+  * The computers running Debian Edu / Skolelinux must have either 32 bit (Debian architecture 'i386', oldest supported processors are 686 class ones) or 64 bit (Debian architecture 'amd64') x86 processors.
-  * At least 12 GiB RAM for 30 thin clients and 20 GiB RAM for 50-60 thin clients are recommended for the main and LTSP server profiles. 
   * Thin clients with only 256 MiB RAM and 400 MHz are possible, though more RAM and faster processors are recommended.
-    * Swapping over the network is automatically enabled for LTSP clients; the swap size is 512 MiB, and if you need more you can tune this by editing {{{/etc/ltsp/nbdswapd.conf}}} on tjener to set the SIZE variable.
-    * If your diskless workstations have hard drives, it is recommended to use them for swap as it is a lot faster than network swapping.
   * For workstations, diskless workstations and standalone systems, 1500 MHz and 1024 MiB RAM are the absolute minimum requirements. For running modern webbrowsers and !LibreOffice at least 2048 MiB RAM is recommended. 
-     *On workstations with little RAM the spell checker might cause !LibreOffice to hang if the swap space is also too small. If this happens frequently the spell checker can be disabled by system administrators.
  
   * The minimum disk space requirements depend on the profile which is installed:
- FIXME    * combined main server + LTSP server: 70 GiB (plus additional space for user accounts).
+    * combined main server + LTSP server: 60 GiB (plus additional space for user accounts).
- FIXME    * LTSP server: 50 GiB.
+    * LTSP server: 40 GiB.
     * workstation or standalone: 30 GiB. 
  
   * LTSP servers need two network cards when using the default network architecture:
    * eth0 is connected to the main network (10.0.0.0/8),
- FIXME   * eth1 is used for serving LTSP clients (192.168.0.0/24 as default).
+   * eth1 is used for serving LTSP clients.
  
   * Laptops are movable workstations, so they have the same requirements as workstations.
