The described method should work on even simple desktop environments. If I don't already have an xorg.conf for editing, I first generate it by  Xorg -config xorg.conf.new . To make the screen easier to read, you need to  scale DPI by setting Displaysize in the respective "Monitor" section of xorg.conf proportionally larger than it physically is. A native driver outputs the original image size in Xorg.0.log. You need to type in the real size values times the magnification factor. So if the real active area of your display is 200mm wide and 100mm high and want 1.5x larger text, you insert  Option DisplaySize 300 150 . Unfortunately, not all applications honor this setting. You need to increase the default zoom by hand in  Chromium . You need to update the hexadecimal "LogPixels" dpi setting in ~/.wine/system.reg for  Wine . Otherwise if you are using Gnome, you could also try to increase the text scaling factor with the Gnome Tweak Tool, Universal...

Enough said, you simply click the network icon in the tray, and select "enable mobile broadband".

Using Lubuntu 12.04 for connections to icewm on Ubuntu 12.04. The exact configuration involves hosting a pulse sound server on each thin client , and configuring applications on the remote desktop to pipe back sound to the respective thin client. A trusted environment is assumed here, so please refer to the PulseAudio Network documentation on freedesktop.org and various general security guidelines (firewalls, tunnels, IPsec, VPN, etc.) if you're planning anything serious. Thin client setup: Purge any left over configuration: rm -Ri ~/.pulse Install PulseAudio: sudo apt-get install pulseaudio dbus-x11 Enable local sound access (not sure if needed): sudo adduser $USER pulse; sudo adduser $USER pulse-access then log out and log in again Give local and network access to the sound: cp -t ~/.pulse/ /etc/pulse/default.pa # APPIP="type application server IP address here" echo "load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1/32;$APPIP/32" >...
