| DarthTode | hi there | 09:20 |
| Pygi | Hi | 09:20 |
| DarthTode | anyone knows where to find information regarding Linux in Education (for example xx% of schools in x country use Linux, etc) ? | 09:21 |
| Pygi | It seems only me talks, and I know how much schools uses Linux in my country because I implemented it :P | 09:22 |
| Pygi | I don't know any stats where you might find :/ | 09:22 |
| jsgotangco | its pretty hard to actually get one unless a local government releases data | 09:23 |
| DarthTode | damn... | 09:23 |
| Pygi | yup | 09:23 |
| jsgotangco | unless you're in spain, you'll probably be hard pressed to get actualy usage data | 09:24 |
| DarthTode | actually I need exact data to convince my company to release a driver for Linux | 09:24 |
| Pygi | driver for what? | 09:24 |
| DarthTode | interactive whiteboard | 09:24 |
| jsgotangco | wow | 09:24 |
| DarthTode | very fashion in schools | 09:24 |
| jsgotangco | that would be awesome | 09:24 |
| DarthTode | yeah !! | 09:24 |
| Pygi | will do a marketing campaign :) | 09:24 |
| DarthTode | i'm the product manager for France | 09:25 |
| DarthTode | in France we use a lot Linux in schools | 09:25 |
| DarthTode | but impossible to get those bloody exact data | 09:25 |
| DarthTode | Pygi --> where are you from? | 09:25 |
| DarthTode | Pygi --> oh, Croatia ;-) | 09:27 |
| DarthTode | I remembered a match between France and Croatia, few years ago, in the World Cup... anyway ;-) | 09:27 |
| === jsgotangco would like to go to france sometime | ||
| Pygi | I remember the match too :) | 09:28 |
| Pygi | In Croatia there are like 10 computers in entire school system, and it's some extra group in a gymnasium in Osijek I think... | 09:29 |
| Pygi | In here goverment is not very friendly toward Linux :P | 09:30 |
| jsgotangco | 10 computers? | 09:31 |
| Pygi | yup :/ | 09:31 |
| DarthTode | Pygi --> what a match... ;-) | 09:32 |
| Pygi | I meant computers with Linux :P | 09:32 |
| DarthTode | Pygi --> wow... only 10... what a pity... | 09:32 |
| Pygi | Only Linux :P | 09:32 |
| Pygi | Well, I know... | 09:32 |
| Pygi | We are now working on trying to improve it... | 09:32 |
| DarthTode | jsgotangco --> come and see what beautiful country it is :-) | 09:32 |
| jsgotangco | DarthTode, yeah hopefully | 09:32 |
| === jsgotangco lives in sunny manila (philippines) | ||
| Pygi | I am co-founder of ubuntu-hr team, and coordinator of local Linux community (a little while ago I became one)... | 09:33 |
| jsgotangco | i have a friend in paris though... | 09:33 |
| Pygi | so now things are going good for us :) | 09:33 |
| Pygi | that's one of the reasons why I wanna help develop Edubuntu | 09:33 |
| jsgotangco | Pygi, sure we'll need all the help we can get | 09:34 |
| === jsgotangco is looking for help in documentation | ||
| === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.36.161.235] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| === Pygi is offering help in coding / developing :) | ||
| jsgotangco | Pygi, what exactly? packages? | 09:35 |
| jsgotangco | Pygi, remember Edubuntu is bsaed on ubuntu | 09:35 |
| Pygi | whatever it needs :P Yes, I know that it's based on Ubuntu | 09:35 |
| DarthTode | Ubuntu and of course Edubuntu are really awesome | 09:36 |
| jsgotangco | Pygi, i said that because your coding/packaging skills can benefit the 3 projects instead of focusing on 1 | 09:36 |
| DarthTode | I love that distribution | 09:36 |
| === Pygi offers help in installer :) www.sourceforge.net/projects/crowly :) | ||
| DarthTode | Pygi --> it's really cool to be a co-funder !! | 09:36 |
| Pygi | Yup, but I don't know who to talk to to become Ubuntu developer :P | 09:37 |
| jsgotangco | Pygi, go to #ubuntu-motu | 09:37 |
| DarthTode | jsgotangco --> a friend of mine is from Philippines, he was always the best in english lesson at school... ;-) | 09:37 |
| jsgotangco | you can start by contributing to Universe | 09:37 |
| jsgotangco | DarthTode, we're pretty good in english | 09:38 |
| Pygi | kk, will do for now :) | 09:38 |
| === Pygi is afk...will be back in like half of hour... | ||
| DarthTode | jsgotangco --> I know !!! ;-) | 09:39 |
| jsgotangco | DarthTode, where are you located? | 09:39 |
| jsgotangco | DarthTode, there was a query before in the list early in the Edubuntu development cycle about support for electronic white boards... | 09:40 |
| jsgotangco | unfortunately, we don't have open source drivers for those... | 09:40 |
| DarthTode | yeah | 09:40 |
| DarthTode | actually I'd like to get info as I told you, to be able to develop an opensource driver for our boards | 09:41 |
| DarthTode | I'm from Paris, France :-) | 09:41 |
| jsgotangco | oh are the teen riots ended? | 09:42 |
| DarthTode | oh my... not really | 09:44 |
| DarthTode | last night, cars were burning, and it seems young people shoot with real bullets on the police... amazing... | 09:46 |
| DarthTode | :-( | 09:46 |
| jsgotangco | wow | 09:47 |
| jsgotangco | i saw it on the news last night... | 09:47 |
| jsgotangco | things like that don't happen over here, so it can be scary for me | 09:47 |
| DarthTode | actually it's because of two young who died because they were chased by the police | 09:49 |
| DarthTode | two from "da hood" | 09:50 |
| jsgotangco | gang wars | 09:50 |
| DarthTode | so the others went crazy... | 09:50 |
| jsgotangco | we don't get riots like that over here | 09:50 |
| jsgotangco | we do have loose firearms in the city, but people aren't stupid to fight the cops because most of them are armed with automatic rifles | 09:51 |
| jsgotangco | even if i have a gun, i don't stand a chance with an M16 | 09:51 |
| === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.36.161.235] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| DarthTode | yeah, u right | 09:58 |
| jsgotangco | well i gotta go | 09:58 |
| jsgotangco | i'm gonna pick up my wife | 09:58 |
| jsgotangco | see you later | 09:58 |
| DarthTode | but cops can't just shoot people like that in France, we're not american... | 09:58 |
| jsgotangco | (nice talking to you too) | 09:58 |
| DarthTode | see ya mate | 09:58 |
| DarthTode | yeah, nice :-) | 09:59 |

| lemoncake | i need help | 07:39 |
| lemoncake | whit the installation of edubuntu | 07:39 |
| lemoncake | who can help me? | 07:39 |
| juliux | lemoncake, ask and wait | 07:41 |
| lemoncake | ok | 07:41 |
| lemoncake | when i install edubuntu on my pc...in installation it doesn't ask me for the root password | 07:41 |
| lemoncake | now | 07:41 |
| lemoncake | i need to install a package | 07:41 |
| juliux | there is no root account | 07:41 |
| lemoncake | with dpgk | 07:41 |
| juliux | ubuntu and edubuntu use sudo | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | ok | 07:42 |
| juliux | the user you have creat by the installation can make everything via sudo | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | usage: sudo -K | -L | -V | -h | -k | -l | -v | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | usage: sudo [-HPSb] [-p prompt] [-u username|#uid] | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | { -e file [...] | -i | -s | <command> } | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | mm | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | when i write "sudo" in terminal | 07:42 |
| lemoncake | in terminal appear this | 07:43 |
| lemoncake | if i want to install a package with dpkg | 07:43 |
| lemoncake | how can i do this? | 07:43 |
| juliux | sudo <the programm you want to use with root rights | 07:43 |
| lemoncake | so | 07:43 |
| lemoncake | sudo dpkg? | 07:43 |
| juliux | f.e. sudo dpkg -i ltsp.deb | 07:43 |
| lemoncake | when i write in the terminal example: sudo dpkg -i NeroLinux.deb it ask to me the password...i write it..then i say that other process have the lock of the database | 07:47 |
| lemoncake | :?? | 07:47 |
| lemoncake | ehm the it | 07:48 |
| lemoncake | excuse me | 07:48 |
| lemoncake | then it say that other process have the lock of the database | 07:48 |
| smi|e | can i install edubuntu-desktop? | 07:48 |
| smi|e | on ubuntu | 07:48 |
| lemoncake | juliux are you online?? | 07:50 |
| lemoncake | it's an emergency because i need to install some packages | 07:50 |
| smi|e | lemoncake: whats the matter? | 07:51 |
| lemoncake | mmm read up | 07:51 |
| highvoltage | smi|e: yes, you can | 07:53 |
| smi|e | lemoncake: you want too install a package right? | 07:53 |
| smi|e | lemoncake: whats the package called | 07:53 |
| highvoltage | lemoncake: if it says other processes have locked the database, you probably have synaptic or aptitude open somewhere | 07:53 |
| highvoltage | you need to close them first before you can use dpkg or apt | 07:54 |
| smi|e | highvoltage: know any wicked programs i should install on ubuntu | 07:54 |
| === pere is now known as pere_gone | ||
| highvoltage | smi|e: many :) | 07:56 |
| smi|e | highvoltage: give me a list ;) | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | amarok is a nice mp3 / ogg player | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | mplayer-686 is my favourite video player | 07:56 |
| smi|e | got them ;) | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | quanta is my favoutire html editor | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | kuickshow is my favourite image viewer | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | liferea is a very nice RSS feed reader | 07:57 |
| smi|e | k | 07:57 |
| smi|e | whats a rss feed reader for? | 07:58 |
| highvoltage | it's like an email reader, it "finds" changes in blogs and on news sites such as slashdot, | 07:59 |
| smi|e | k | 07:59 |
| highvoltage | then it compiles it for you. you can stay up to date very easily. | 07:59 |
| highvoltage | you want games too? | 07:59 |
| highvoltage | supertux is like mario bros. very nice. | 07:59 |
| highvoltage | armagetron is a nice 3d game. so is tuxracer. | 07:59 |

| lemoncake | excuse me | 08:05 |
| lemoncake | i have a lan | 08:05 |
| lemoncake | with a computer that have windows xp | 08:05 |
| lemoncake | and this computer that have edubuntu 5.10 | 08:05 |
| lemoncake | i want to have access to shared folder by windows xp from this computer | 08:05 |
| lemoncake | how can i do this?? | 08:06 |
| highvoltage | how do you want to share it, do you need to protect it? | 08:06 |
| highvoltage | you have several options. | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | no | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | i have shared some folders in windows xp | 08:07 |
| highvoltage | edubuntu is running a web server, so you could share it through that. | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | no | 08:07 |
| highvoltage | oh, if you want to share both ways, samba is your best bet. | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | ok | 08:07 |
| highvoltage | apt-get install samba | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | ok | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | i have installed samba yet | 08:07 |
| highvoltage | i think you can do it in gui, but i only know text mode | 08:07 |
| lemoncake | mm | 08:08 |
| lemoncake | ok | 08:08 |
| highvoltage | once samba is installed, you edit /etc/smb/samba.conf | 08:08 |
| highvoltage | then you change security = user to security = share | 08:08 |
| highvoltage | then you add (to the end of the config) | 08:08 |
| highvoltage | [sharename] | 08:08 |

| highvoltage | the labs here didn't have netware. | 09:09 |
| signifer123 | :-P | 09:09 |
| highvoltage | which made it easy. | 09:09 |
| signifer123 | figures | 09:09 |
| highvoltage | most of the windows labs were unmaintained, and falling apart. | 09:09 |
| signifer123 | any advice anywho? | 09:09 |
| highvoltage | these schools embraced linux because with it they got a community, something they never had with their windows labs. | 09:09 |
| signifer123 | dang it.... | 09:10 |
| highvoltage | signifer123: what are you thinking of doing? | 09:11 |
| signifer123 | jsut tryingot get school system to move ot linux | 09:12 |

| signifer123 | not an educator | 09:13 |
| signifer123 | student :-p | 09:13 |
| signifer123 | the onyl main reason i could show them for switching really is security | 09:13 |

| signifer123 | ohh well i'll need help so i'll pop on..and ask alot of Q's | 09:16 |
| highvoltage | pop in any time. | 09:17 |
| highvoltage | also feel free to join the edubuntu-devel mailing list on http://lists.ubuntu.com | 09:17 |

| Signifer123 | back | 09:24 |
| Signifer123 | do you gyus plan on making themes for gnome and firefox etc... | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | what kind of themes? | 09:30 |
| Signifer123 | like i guess something laong the lines of what happened to the icons | 09:31 |
| highvoltage | yes. it's likely that future versions of edubuntu will have different themes. | 09:32 |
| highvoltage | some which are more appropriate for university, etc. | 09:32 |
| Signifer123 | k cool | 09:33 |
| Signifer123 | fun... | 09:40 |
| Signifer123 | to edit icons owuldi ahve to compile it again? | 09:42 |
| Signifer123 | nautilus | 09:42 |
| highvoltage | nope. | 09:43 |
| highvoltage | most icons are stored in /usr/share/icons | 09:43 |
| highvoltage | you can simply replace the icons with other .png files if you want to change it for yourself. | 09:43 |
| highvoltage | if you want to submit it to edubuntu, there might be a bit more work envolved, but we could find someone else to do it too. | 09:44 |
| Signifer123 | k | 09:45 |
| Signifer123 | does that include all apps like firefox is in there? | 09:45 |
| highvoltage | in the gartoon theme, yes. | 09:46 |
| highvoltage | some themes does not have all the icons, so it will fall back to a default. | 09:46 |
| Signifer123 | ok will other apps put thier icon in there too? | 09:46 |
| Signifer123 | like if i install glade | 09:47 |
| highvoltage | glade seems to get it's icon there too. | 09:49 |
| Signifer123 | k | 09:49 |
| highvoltage | are you on an ubuntu / edubuntu box right now? | 09:49 |
| Signifer123 | i'm on ubuntu with a vmwared edubuntu | 09:49 |
| highvoltage | ok. check the /usr/share/icons/gartoon | 09:50 |
| highvoltage | directory | 09:50 |
| highvoltage | you'll see how it works there | 09:50 |
| Signifer123 | yeah i see | 09:50 |
| Signifer123 | can gimp edit svg? | 09:51 |
| Signifer123 | apperntly not nvm | 09:51 |
| highvoltage | nope | 09:52 |
| highvoltage | use inkscape for .svg | 09:53 |
| Signifer123 | it synaptic won't isntall it :-p | 09:53 |
| Signifer123 | dependency errors | 09:53 |
| highvoltage | strange | 09:54 |
| bluefrog-10 | hi highvoltage, by chance do you know how to find by command line in terminal if a ther's a lock on a file pls? | 09:55 |
| highvoltage | what kind of lock? | 09:56 |
| highvoltage | linux doesn't have locks on files like windows does. | 09:56 |
| highvoltage | if you want to know which processes is using a file, you can use lsof | 09:56 |
| highvoltage | ex: lsof /dev/cdrom | 09:56 |
| bluefrog-10 | sry it's the other way i want.. i explain | 09:56 |
| highvoltage | if it's firefox which has a lock file, it will be in the ~/.mozilla-firefox/profile/xxxxxx dir | 09:57 |
| highvoltage | openoffice in ~/.openoffice/lock (iirc) | 09:57 |
| highvoltage | some of the daemons store lock files in /var/run | 09:57 |
| highvoltage | but file locking per se does not exist in linux, linux is over that. | 09:58 |
| bluefrog-10 | while doing apt-get update it's trying to lock /var/lib/dpkg/, | 09:58 |
| highvoltage | bluefrog-10: do you have synaptic or aptidute open? | 09:58 |
| bluefrog-10 | and if synaptic is open it's stating that it can't do it | 09:58 |
| bluefrog-10 | am wrting a script to automate the install of samba-ldap | 09:58 |
| highvoltage | yes, synaptic puts a lock file in /var/cache/apt/packages | 09:58 |
| highvoltage | and if dpkg sees it there, it refuses to do anything | 09:59 |
| highvoltage | exiting synaptic is the correct thing to do before running dpkg | 09:59 |
| enyc | moo de beep | 09:59 |
| bluefrog-10 | and i'd like to have a function which looks if apt-get will be able to lock the dir | 09:59 |
| enyc | err i dont have the edubuntu box atm... | 09:59 |
| enyc | erm | 09:59 |
| bluefrog-10 | so in my function I was wondering if there is a way to check by command line if a lock can be put on the dir | 10:00 |
| enyc | sombody woth an onstalled edubuntu.... please run 'tuxpaint' ** using the menu entry ** -- applications > etc... | 10:00 |
| highvoltage | enyc: moo to you too | 10:01 |
| enyc | does the sound work [you should hear a sound when tuxpaint finishes loading icons etc.] | 10:01 |
| highvoltage | bluefrog-10: a lock can't be put on a dir | 10:01 |
| bluefrog-10 | k ty | 10:01 |
| enyc | ? | 10:01 |
| highvoltage | apt-get moo | 10:02 |
| === enyc waits ;-) | ||

| === enyc wonders if somebody here going to try what i suggested ;-) | ||
| highvoltage | enyc: sorry, what did you suggest? | 10:04 |
| bluefrog-10 | highvoltage, i found out what i had difficulty to express... I nedd to check if there is a lock file in the dir... | 10:04 |
| highvoltage | ah | 10:04 |

| DaSkreech | Can I install edubuntu on top of ubuntu base? | 10:58 |
| === signifer123 [n=michael@pool-70-16-12-170.balt.east.verizon.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| DaSkreech | Or rather if I installed ubuntu-minimal could I install edubuntu-desktop and get the same as a default install of Edubuntu? | 11:01 |
| bluefrog-10 | I believe that if you apt-get install edubuntu-desktop edubuntu-server, you will obtain what you want, but am not 100% sure | 11:02 |
| DaSkreech | Right | 11:03 |
| DaSkreech | But this is a school so I'd rather not have anything I don't need to have | 11:03 |
| DaSkreech | Also it seems that edubuntu does a LTSP install on install would edubuntu-desktop or server take care of that from apt-get? | 11:04 |
| bluefrog-10 | edubuntu-server will tell you about depencies | 11:04 |
| bluefrog-10 | dependencies | 11:04 |
| DaSkreech | Ok So the method is to install ubuntu breezy minimal or base and then apt-get edubuntu-desktop and server | 11:06 |
| bluefrog-10 | the best thing is to install from edubuntu install cd | 11:07 |
| DaSkreech | The compuetr won't allow it | 11:07 |
| DaSkreech | computer | 11:07 |
| bluefrog-10 | explain | 11:07 |
| DaSkreech | I can't | 11:09 |
| DaSkreech | It reaches a section of install where it stops and says the computer ran out of space installing to /var | 11:09 |
| DaSkreech | the computer has 30 Gb free | 11:09 |
| DaSkreech | If I go to terminal 2 a df shows that everything except the CDrom has at most 33% used | 11:10 |
| bluefrog-10 | have u checked the md5sum of the iso?, verify the cd in itself, to do that i think you can type expert at boot and then there should be a "verify cd" option | 11:11 |
| signifer123 | that is werid...i installed it on a 4 gig hd | 11:11 |
| DaSkreech | I used the same CD to install to 3 other machines | 11:11 |
| DaSkreech | and I've used multiple CDs they all throw an error at teh same palce | 11:11 |
| DaSkreech | I would suspect the Cdrom drive but Xandros is installed and the same thing happens | 11:12 |
| DaSkreech | it boots up till a certain section then freezes | 11:13 |
| DaSkreech | So i installed Ubuntu and it works fine | 11:13 |
| DaSkreech | So I'm going to install ubuntu-base or minimal and apt-get edubuntu | 11:14 |
| bluefrog-10 | ok | 11:14 |
| signifer123 | do you guys have other themes for icons and such other than elementary school style? | 11:15 |
