I am looking for a small linux distribution, that I can install or boot my toshiba laptop with and connect to my terminal server.
But I like to be able to add small programs on it like SIP telephone.

Is this a good distribution?

I dont see why It couldnt be used as that
Now getting the SIP phone might be a bit more difficult since someone will have to build a GPL .dsl package

Does DSL boot your laptop to where it is useable??

There's a distro called Pilot Linux who's sole goal in life is to be a thin client.  Supports various protocol including TS, VNC, etc.  No Citrix ICA though.
