| shaga | good morning all | 07:12 |
|---|---|---|
| shaga | why does gnome-terminal sometimes messes the whole screen if you are using another gnome-terminal for example dist-upgrade or by pasting a url into terminal.. only thing what goes messed is ssh connection to this shell and using irssi from here.. I must leaven the 'irssi screen' and come back to get graphics back to work | 07:14 |
| shaga | is this known bug or do anyone even know what I'm talking about? :) | 07:15 |
| shaga | The following packages have been kept back: | 07:30 |
| shaga | linux-restricted-modules-386 | 07:30 |
| shaga | like yesterday(or the day before that) edubuntu-desktop was being kept back | 07:30 |
| shaga | of course I'm forcing ;) | 07:30 |
| shaga | and why always 386-versions of the kernels, why not 686 if I'm using 686 already.. does it matter really? I'm kind of making a log here so don't remember what to check after rebooting | 07:33 |
| shaga | don't forget I meant to say | 07:33 |

| JaneW | hello | 08:44 |
| shaga | hello | 08:44 |
| shaga | I've noticed some bugs today | 08:44 |
| jsgotangco | shaga, it'll be fixed today | 08:45 |
| JaneW | serious ones? | 08:45 |
| jsgotangco | (linux-restricted-modules) | 08:45 |
| JaneW | erk | 08:45 |
| shaga | "system tray" shows the correct day and date, but once I'm at adjusting it, it shows the wrong day but the correct date | 08:45 |
| JaneW | fabbione is working on that | 08:45 |
| JaneW | shage: right year? | 08:45 |
| jsgotangco | should be recompiled so its taking time | 08:45 |
| shaga | it tells right year yes | 08:46 |
| jsgotangco | shaga, works fine with me | 08:47 |
| shaga | and date-command gives proper date and year, day the week | 08:47 |
| shaga | but day of the week is just saturday while configuring it via gui | 08:47 |
| shaga | and it doesn't remember europe/finland(or was it helsinki), after I reboot.. it's europe/marienham | 08:48 |
| JaneW | can I remove COlin Applegate from the contact list on the wiki? I haven;t heard from or of him since the summit in early July.... | 08:48 |
| jsgotangco | what the heck happened to that kid | 08:49 |
| shaga | and is a 'messed up texts' while ssh-connected to shell and running irssi through screen? | 08:51 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: shrug, maybe he was too inebriated to leave London and is still on the streets there....? | 08:52 |
| shaga | it happens if you copy&paste url or use apt-get in a different gnome-terminal. this has been around since hoary for me. for each computer I use and it doesn't matter if use transparance or not. I just have to deattach/+attach to get graphics back okay | 08:52 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: so I am removing him... | 08:52 |
| jsgotangco | i dont see that word everyday hehe | 08:53 |
| shaga | JaneW: do you need screenshot about messed up grahics or bugged 'time and date settings'? time for a coffee break for me anyway, brb | 08:53 |
| JaneW | :) | 08:53 |
| jsgotangco | "inebriated" | 08:53 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 08:53 |
| jsgotangco | you dont say that word in real life | 08:54 |
| jsgotangco | just in text... | 08:54 |
| JaneW | ok next Q, can someone give me the final and official answer re: "With the Edubuntu 5.10 release, I've noticed that there is no DHCP server on install, so that the user had to enter an IP address, which most people on a DHCP server have *no* idea how to do. Is the final release of Edubuntu 5.10 going to fix this? " so I can respond to the many enquiries... | 08:54 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: I use the word fairly often... | 08:55 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: but maybe I am just weird | 08:55 |
| jsgotangco | no dhcp server... | 08:55 |
| jsgotangco | there is one... | 08:55 |
| jsgotangco | the workstation option doesn't need a dhcp server... | 08:55 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: I think it's for the server install | 08:57 |

| jsgotangco | zsnes?? | 11:23 |
| shaga | oh, trying it now, thanks.. | 11:24 |
| === pere_gone is now known as pere | ||
| shaga | dist-upgrade didn't work very well for starters now | 11:32 |
| shaga | Unpacking replacement xinit ... | 11:32 |
| shaga | Errors were encountered while processing: | 11:32 |
| shaga | /var/cache/apt/archives/x-common_1.07_all.deb | 11:32 |
| shaga | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 11:32 |
| shaga | of course apt-get -f install helps but just wanted to tell | 11:33 |
| shaga | didn't help even | 11:33 |
| ogra | shaga, the dist-upgrade error was fixed 10min ago ;) | 11:34 |
| ogra | these errors are all inherited from ubuntu, i cant do much about it | 11:35 |
| shaga | okay :) | 11:35 |
| shaga | # dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/x-common_1.07_all.deb | 11:36 |
| shaga | ;) | 11:36 |
| ogra | uuh... --force-all is evil.... | 11:37 |
| ogra | rather take --force-overwrite thats a bit less evil | 11:37 |
| shaga | I'll try it next time ;) | 11:38 |
| shaga | jsgotangco: just downloaded zsnes and then thought about, it's snes-emulator as the name says. I'm looking for 8bit nes emulator.. | 11:55 |
| shaga | but I think it's not hard to find via google | 11:56 |

| Yagisan | G'day ogra. Worked out what the issue was with installing edubuntu in vmware | 02:34 |
| ogra | YAY | 02:34 |
| Yagisan | known ubuntu kernel issue with "buslogic" scsi module | 02:34 |
| Yagisan | reinstalling now with ide only | 02:35 |
| ogra | we had another post at edubuntu-devel today where someone couldnt install in vmware, did you see it ? | 02:35 |
| Yagisan | nice pretty boot up. | 02:35 |
| Yagisan | no | 02:35 |
| shaga | I saw it | 02:36 |
| Yagisan | I'm not on edubuntu-devel | 02:36 |
| Yagisan | solution would most likely be - no scis disks when creating virtual machine | 02:36 |
| Yagisan | s/scis/scsi | 02:36 |
| JaneW | ok next Q, can someone give me the final and official answer re: "With the Edubuntu 5.10 release, I've noticed that there is no DHCP server on install, so that the user had to enter an IP address, which most people on a DHCP server have *no* idea how to do. Is the final release of Edubuntu 5.10 going to fix this? " so I can respond to the many enquiries... | 02:41 |
| ogra | for a ltsp server a fixed ip is needed | 02:42 |
| ogra | so you need to supply one at installation | 02:42 |
| ogra | and a dhcp server is installed by default, else the ltsp server wouldnt work at all | 02:42 |
| ogra | JaneW, if you tell such people to file bugs in bugzilla, i can answer them there :) | 02:43 |
| === Gand_ [n=admin@81-208-74-177.ip.fastwebnet.it] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| shaga | perhaps adding an another installation-option to cdboot-menu? | 02:43 |
| magnon | ogra: if you don't configure an external one to do, but you wouldn't know how to if you just had a "router" or something :P | 02:44 |
| ogra | there is a workstation option | 02:44 |
| shaga | that's what I used | 02:44 |
| ogra | magnon, if you have an external dhcp server this should be bound to a second interface... the ltsp setup should be on a separate network ... | 02:45 |
| ogra | magnon, if you want to mix up with the existing dhcp server you will know what a IP address is and how to tweak the different servers | 02:46 |
| magnon | exactly | 02:46 |
| ogra | our target is the person who doesnt know that and installs a standalone ltsp environment... additionally its a base for your customization... | 02:47 |
| ogra | ... if you know about these tweaks | 02:48 |
| magnon | I just said if :) | 02:50 |
| ogra | :) | 02:51 |
| === magnon should call ibm | ||
| Yagisan | hmm, ebubuntu doesn't like vmware virtual pcnet32 network interface | 02:54 |

| Yagisan | is that on boot it won't activate eth0 | 04:06 |

| ogra | s/put it/put in | 04:07 |
| Yagisan | /etc/network/interfaces is missing eth0 from the auto line | 04:07 |
| Yagisan | just add it with sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces then restart netwrking and it'll be ok | 04:07 |
| Zaheer | yes i know about that but i thort it was only fedora/rh specific ... | 04:07 |
| ogra | Yagisan, is that with the default install or the workstation version ? | 04:08 |
| Yagisan | default | 04:08 |
| Yagisan | from the torrent | 04:08 |
| ogra | hmm | 04:08 |
| === Yagisan is happy - my sec fix for hoary was accepted | ||

| Yagisan | I help in my way | 04:16 |

| ogra | use --force-overwrite with dpkg manually or wait for the next xorg upload | 04:16 |
| === Yagisan hates to use --force | ||

| JaneW | ogra: i.e. is anyone working on a fix and/or does anyone even know how to fix it? | 04:20 |
| ogra | i saw the mail, ther was a question ? | 04:20 |

| ogra | i think thats hno79 land ... | 04:21 |

| JaneW | and is sure to have a full mail box on his return... | 04:22 |
| ogra | yup | 04:23 |
| ogra | but i have no insight at all how the wiki merge is done... | 04:23 |
| Zaheer | just another question why cant i use scsi drives? | 04:33 |
| ogra | ask vmware ? | 04:34 |
| Zaheer | oh ok so its not a gnu/linux thing | 04:34 |
| ogra | no idea, i dont even have vmware, but they are normally out of sync with very new kernels... | 04:35 |
| Yagisan | Zaheer - It's a driver bug | 04:35 |
| ogra | so it might be either one | 04:35 |
| Yagisan | buslogic driver has an error | 04:35 |
| Zaheer | oh ok :) i like to know why. | 04:35 |
| Yagisan | 00:24:22) jbailey: Yagisan: Cool thanks. The new kernel should apparently fix it. | 04:35 |
| Yagisan | vmware must had changed something in the buslogic emulation | 04:36 |
| Yagisan | it should be good to go with edubuntu final | 04:36 |
| shaga | whos drinking with me? :) | 04:37 |
| Zaheer | well im installing the preview first, so i'll see how that goes first. if it works then cool | 04:37 |
| ogra | Zaheer, follow the notes pointed out in the topic... | 04:38 |
| Yagisan | I'm giving it a test run too. I want to move my business to a thin client system - and this looks like a good way to test | 04:38 |
| ogra | but i guess you wont run the final installation in vmware ;) | 04:39 |
| Yagisan | nope | 04:39 |
| === Yagisan will brb | ||
| Zaheer | hey i like this bronze logo looks really cool :) | 04:42 |
| ogra | will also be in the bootsplash soon.. | 04:42 |

| ogra | its already there, just not compiled in... it will depend on jbailey to add the feture for different splash screens | 04:44 |
| magnon | ogra: you know of any law-savvy canonicals who might be able to sacrifice a few minutes for me, btw? | 04:46 |
| ogra | magnon, hmm, i'm not sure we have any lawyer... | 04:48 |
| ogra | (i dont think so) | 04:48 |
| magnon | just someone more interested in law than usual, anyway | 04:49 |
| ogra | elmo does the license checking stuff, but thats all | 04:49 |
| magnon | ok | 04:49 |
| ogra | is it about contracting stuff ? | 04:50 |
| magnon | it's about copyright assignment | 04:50 |
| ogra | hmm, then elmo could probably help, but he's *very* busy and hard to catch currently | 04:51 |
| magnon | ok | 04:51 |
| magnon | thanks anyway | 04:52 |
| magnon | I'll try to ask in a non-intrusive and efficient way :P | 04:52 |
| Zaheer | yawl enjoy the weekend :D im out. bye bye | 05:04 |
| === Zaheer [n=zahedoll@wbs-146-155-160.telkomadsl.co.za] has left #edubuntu [] | ||
| Yagisan | heh - simple solution to x-org problem - don't update x-org-common | 05:04 |
| ogra | heh | 05:04 |
| Yagisan | ogra: you do this all yourself ? | 05:06 |
| ogra | yup | 05:06 |
| ogra | i hope that'll change for dapper | 05:06 |
| Yagisan | cool | 05:06 |
| Yagisan | now that edubuntu is finally installed and up to date, I can now configure it | 05:09 |
| ogra | :) | 05:10 |
| === Yagisan wishes mc was in main | ||
| Yagisan | how do I update the ltsp environment ? | 05:33 |
| ogra | chroot into it... | 05:34 |
| ogra | oh, and check that there is a usable sources.list | 05:34 |
| ogra | the current default is the CD ... | 05:34 |
| Yagisan | thanks ogra | 05:35 |
| Yagisan | still no way to run "local apps" ? | 05:35 |
| ogra | highvoltage did it in a odd way, he installed the whole desktop in the chroot.. | 05:36 |
| ogra | that works indeed | 05:36 |
| Yagisan | well I'm about to start the first clients | 05:37 |
| Yagisan | I'd only want to run one or two apps locally | 05:38 |
| ogra | thats not possible currently without a lot of fiddling | 05:39 |
| Yagisan | I was thinking distcc on the clients | 05:39 |
| Yagisan | it would be nice to harness their unused processing power | 05:40 |
| ogra | ah, i thought a gui app or something | 05:41 |
| ogra | indeed you can do such things | 05:41 |
| Yagisan | excellent | 05:42 |
| Yagisan | I used to use openmosix with 2.4.x | 05:42 |
| Yagisan | but they haven't released patches against 2.6.x (only cvs) | 05:43 |
| Yagisan | that was good for clustered load ballancing | 05:43 |
| ogra | i'll have to add such features for dapper :) | 05:44 |
| Yagisan | I'll try to help | 05:44 |
| ogra | yay :) | 05:44 |
| Yagisan | things *I* need are like distcc, john, rainbowcrack | 05:44 |
| Yagisan | that I can split up and pass to the clients | 05:45 |
| ogra | i'm also thinking about some autonice stuff ... | 05:45 |
| Yagisan | occasionally mencoder when I buy Kate (my daughter) a new dvd | 05:45 |
| Yagisan | the is an openmosix based live cd distro | 05:46 |
| Yagisan | it has automatically configured full mesh ipsec | 05:46 |
| Yagisan | perhaps we could "borrow" it | 05:46 |
| Yagisan | for dapper | 05:46 |
| Yagisan | one of my competitors is hosting it | 05:47 |
| Yagisan | :( | 05:49 |
| ogra | why :( ? | 05:49 |
| Yagisan | client stops at TFTP. | 05:49 |
| Yagisan | I must has missed something | 05:50 |
| ogra | it doesnt boot ? | 05:50 |
| ogra | or does it hang after booting ? | 05:50 |
| Yagisan | the TFTP dots are slowly increasing | 05:50 |
| Yagisan | but no boot | 05:51 |
| ogra | hmm, looks like your tftp server isnt running then | 05:51 |
| ogra | check /etc/inetd.conf | 05:51 |
| Yagisan | it's enabled and running | 05:53 |
| === Yagisan gets ethereal out | ||
| === Yagisan confirms tftp packets - concludes must be a pebkac error | ||
| Yagisan | yep pebkac - trying to send a non-existant kernel | 06:00 |
| Yagisan | it's not in /ltsp | 06:01 |
| Yagisan | because there is no /ltsp | 06:01 |
| ogra | aehm... | 06:02 |
| ogra | but you installed correctly and didnt use the workstation version ? | 06:02 |
| Yagisan | yep | 06:02 |
| ogra | (no installation erors ?=) | 06:02 |
| Yagisan | none that I could see (it didn't have net access though) | 06:03 |
| Yagisan | I specify a full /var/lib/tftp etc path | 06:03 |
| ogra | where ?` | 06:03 |
| Yagisan | I was about to do that in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf | 06:05 |
| Yagisan | nope - that was a bad idea | 06:07 |
| Yagisan | that gave a file not found message from pxeboot | 06:07 |
| Yagisan | must have been very slow at transferring | 06:07 |
| Yagisan | etherboot instructions ? I'll try a real client | 06:08 |

| === pere is now known as pere_gone | ||
| Yagisan | fixed it. mumble muble f*cking mtu issues fragmenting tftp packets | 06:57 |
| Yagisan | excellent the new etherboot images from rom-o-matic can be configured to emulate pxe | 06:59 |
| Yagisan | I'll finish testing tommorrow | 07:02 |

| yvesC | Accepted gcompris 7.0.2-1 (source all i386) | 11:18 |
| yvesC | (debian) | 11:18 |
| ogra | yvesC, i didnt get approval for an upgrade | 11:20 |
| ogra | :/ | 11:20 |
| yvesC | take 6.5.3. | 11:21 |
| yvesC | Don't put a broken gcompris, please. administration is broken in your cvs dated. | 11:21 |
| ogra | yup, i know, i'll have to fix it, but i'm not yet sure how | 11:22 |
| yvesC | Look the changelog between your date and the release date. The admin databse has changed place, changed column name. | 11:23 |
| ogra | an option would be to create a patch with the delta between the cvs i have now and 7.0 (in fact that'd be an upgrade but wouldnt show up in the version number) | 11:24 |
| yvesC | Even if you can make it run, the db will not be compliant with following releases; All the administration stuff will have to be supressed and redo. | 11:24 |
| yvesC | A patch with 7.0, yes i can do that. | 11:24 |
| ogra | i have no prob with the admin stuff being supressed for now... we have a 6 month release cycle so 7.0 is quite near... | 11:25 |
| yvesC | GCompris cvs without admin, you cannot suppress activities | 11:26 |
| ogra | hmm, ok | 11:26 |
| yvesC | in 653, there was gcompris-edit. We replaced it by the new admin module, sqlite based | 11:26 |
| ogra | so the two opportiunities are to fix 653 or to secretly update to 7.0 but not tell anyone | 11:27 |
| yvesC | Yes | 11:27 |
| yvesC | 653 was not compiling ? | 11:27 |
| ogra | not with gcc4 and the libc version we have in breezy | 11:27 |
| ogra | and since the current version is half way 7.0 upgrading silently through a patch would be the best i guess... | 11:28 |
| yvesC | Yep | 11:28 |
| ogra | i'll go with that then :) | 11:29 |
| yvesC | Thanks | 11:30 |
| ogra | i think i'll have time beginning next wek to care for it, would you take a look at itafterwards ? | 11:30 |
| yvesC | Yes, if it's possible | 11:30 |
| ogra | sure :) | 11:30 |
| ogra | thanks a lot... | 11:31 |
| ogra | next time i'll coordinate beter with you, promised ;) | 11:31 |
| yvesC | we are in #gcompris, or you got my mail in my bugreport | 11:31 |
| ogra | better even | 11:31 |
| ogra | yup, got the bugreport... all edubuntu related bugs are assigned to me anyway, edubuntu is a one man show :) | 11:32 |
| ogra | (hope that changes for the next release) | 11:32 |
| yvesC | Thanks, Debian package is almost correct now, dependancies seems correctly fixed. We have worked with it's maintener. | 11:32 |
| ogra | great | 11:33 |
| yvesC | Important change was between 7.0.1-1 and 7.0.1-2 | 11:34 |
| ogra | ok | 11:34 |
| ogra | i'll grab 7.0.1-2 then and produce a dpatch from it | 11:35 |
| yvesC | edubuntu is a one man show... Great job! | 11:51 |
| bdoin | congratulation. | 11:52 |
| ogra | heh, thanks :) | 11:52 |
| bdoin | we are waiting for a great educational distrib for many years. hope this time it's the good one. | 11:53 |
| ogra | its very basic for the first release, currently i'm only building the base for future releases, its comparable to k12ltsp but not yet with skolelinux... | 11:54 |
| ogra | i.e. target for ths release is a singel classroom, next release is a school and in two releases we'll target the municipality | 11:55 |
| bdoin | is there some colaboration between you and skolelinux ? | 11:56 |
| ogra | sure | 11:56 |
| bdoin | great. | 11:56 |
| ogra | pere_gone is one of the (or *the*) skole core developer | 11:57 |
| ogra | we (JaneW, mark shuttleworth and me) visited a skole summit and they came to ours... | 11:57 |
| ogra | we keep an eye on each other and i hope i can produce a base for them in the future | 11:58 |
| ogra | but since they are rather targeting the enterprise market there is still a way to go for edubuntu | 11:59 |
| bdoin | ok, I see | 12:00 |
| ogra | its still our first release, we are targeting the low hanging fruits with it and will grow over time... but with a 6 month release cycle the growth is quite fast ;) | 12:01 |
| bdoin | correct. is there some organisation ready to use edubuntu at this stage | 12:02 |
| ogra | sure, tuxlabs in south africa already uses it... we have some companys in south america and norway that are interested | 12:04 |
