[10:54] mhz, Well.. we are seriously considering contributing to Edubuntu with Cuaima [10:55] neurogeek: educool [10:55] IMHO it is a very interesting candidate [10:55] mhz, IMHO i think the debian-installer is way to old fashioned for a distro like Ubuntu [10:56] yes and no [10:56] mhz, no.. i haven't tried yet.. i will soon.. I've tried Ubuntu and Kubuntu though.. they are very good! [10:56] mhz, why?? [10:56] debian-installer may be very good for olde machine [10:57] older machines :) [10:57] mhz, yes, i agree [10:57] usually, all GUI's installers I have tried, they all take toooo long to do the job [10:57] IMHO, we should be able to provide 2 wasy [10:57] ways [10:58] a) light installer (usually command line or similar) [10:58] b) gui [10:58] but ive seen too many machines that get stuck with d-i.. its a shame [10:58] oh, yes [10:58] mhz, i strongly agree with you [10:58] heheh [10:58] we 2 agree on same point [10:58] s [10:59] debian-installer may not be the best [10:59] so we should provide a very light and fast installer [10:59] however, I doubt we could change d-i so far [10:59] but I see no problem (can't imagine which) having a second option [10:59] like cuaima [11:00] mhz, yes.. and we are willingly developing Cuaima to fit those needs.. [11:00] neurogeek: so, you should definately talk to ogra (oliver) [11:00] and propose your views on the edubuntu ml [11:01] and yes.. ive been asking around ubuntu channels and odds are not to good for changing d-i any time soon [11:01] exactly [11:01] however, [11:01] mhz, I will.. [11:01] from my humble edubuntu POV, I would suggest this idea for near future: [11:02] a) we have a base installation (edubuntu stuff) === enyc may well goto daycare-nursery where thef using edubuntu-box tomorrow...... [11:02] b) we have already prepackaged set of tools and apps. for each subject (science, math, language, etc) [11:03] so teachers or institutions use what they need [11:03] so during install time, you can choose to add a whole set of tools [11:04] enyc: take pictures! [11:04] thats the way it should be.. we can easily adapt cuaima to do that [11:04] luis__: hmm no camera etc. error [11:04] doh. [11:04] steal one! ;) [11:04] lol they've only had it a week! [11:05] see, you have to take the pictures now, before they change their minds ;) [11:05] a question.. Edubuntu gets always installed the same way.. right?? same packages everytime? [11:05] and im out nearby soldering/heatshrinking a phone cable lol === bluefrog-10 [n=James@81.56.254.229] has joined #edubuntu [11:17] neurogeek: yes and no :) [11:18] edubuntu is ubuntu + edu app.s [11:18] :) how is that?? [11:18] Ok [11:18] so, you can always choose diff options at install time [11:19] however, if you want LTSP [11:19] Ok.. but is currently like that?? [11:19] yes, you have to press enter for default way [11:19] yes [11:20] and actually, you can install edubuntu from any U/K/X/buntu previously installed [11:20] just apt-get install edubuntu-server edubuntu-desktop and that's it [11:21] and remember to edit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf INSTEAD of /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf [11:24] Ah! ok.. [11:24] mhz, Well.. very nice meeting you.. we'll be in touch and I will take into account all you have said.. thanks! [11:25] mhz, now.. i have to go, but we'll talk later
