### Workstation Installation Takes Long and Seams to Hang

On the very first puppet run the command to install the GUI packages takes up to 10 minutes and it looks like it

is hanging. Usually it is after the installation of `/etc/sssd/sssd.conf`. Just give it a bit time.

### No Gnome Screen Lock with NX Server
|
||||
On machines running NX Server Gnome does not provide a screen lock option.
|
||||
Still the screen can be locked running below command in the terminal:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
dm-tool lock
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The underlying problem is
|
||||
- `gdm` is the standard Display Manager providing the login screen and the screen locking
|
||||
- NX server fails to start Gnome with `gdm` and suggests to use `lightdm` instead ([knowledge base entry](https://kb.nomachine.com/TR08Q09375))
|
||||
- so NX server machines now use `lightdm` as Display Manager
|
||||
- Gnome does not integrate with `lightdm` screen locking

### Installing a Machine with YFS and an Old Package Snapshot Tag
|
||||
After the `pli-firstboot` script it stopps due to errors (installed yfs kernel module version does not fit running kernel). Still it manages to install everything fine.
|
||||
So please restart the machine (so it loads the right kernel) and run `puppet agent` again to finally start and enable the `yfs-service`.
