[06:38] yup [06:38] RMP based distro [06:39] very good= my enthusiasm has not lowered [06:41] very good= we'll kick some butts here [06:41] 'coz Gov. has no idea how to implement linux on schools [06:42] they have provided some PCs to schools but no training has been effective yet [06:42] About EduLinux [06:42] Based on Mandrake Linux 9.1, EduLinux is a specialized distribution for education and office use.

[02:56] hey mhz [02:56] ogra: how are you? [02:56] better now... had to fight my jetlag the last two days [02:56] sorry to hear that :) [02:56] heh, expected :) [02:57] do you feel home already? [02:57] sure [02:57] after three days its normally fine again... [02:58] i catched a cold though... [02:58] ogra: I will have to analyze the chance to make some edubuntu CDs customized for a couple of universities carriers, and include at least one light desktop and a heavy one + plus some additional apps. [02:59] carreers [02:59] I found a HowTo for Ubuntu [02:59] http://www.linuxshop.de/shop/catalog/index.php?cPath=70&osCsid=89fa40ea096d2439e1cbbc9dfafc3b3e [02:59] 1,49 [03:00] plus shipping costs [03:00] ogra, what do you think about the workshop? [03:00] you germans have lots of stuff! [03:00] :D [03:01] if you ask the guy, he'll probably make DVDs available for 2-3 [03:01] workshop? [03:02] juliux, a bit rough outlined ... did you take in account that a edubuntu server install takes between 1 and 1,5h ? and 95% of the time you will stare at progressbars ... [03:02] there is not much to do during install.... [03:02] ogra, in this time i want to talk with the people [03:03] and post install you'll have t edit two files [03:03] ogra, and what is with a http proxy?, nfs server?, print server?? [03:03] thats simply all... but sure, if you want to talk, thats fine [03:03] my point is that for Chilean and porbably LA educational-tech reality, many people/schools have 1997-8 pcs [03:03] we dont ship any yet... [03:04] you dont have to touch the nfs server, it gets set up automatically... [03:04] ogra, sure? [03:04] ogra: so, poviding customzed edubuntu cd's has been asked many times in my so-far 2x meetings [03:04] sure [03:05] ogra, i didn't want to make a talk about edubuntu i want show them how they can fix there problems, where they find information and doku in the internet [03:05] ogra: GNOME simply may not be a standard option for us, yet [03:05] ogra, this should be a interactive workshop [03:05] juliux: and what do you think about EdubuntuCdAndSlip? [03:05] mhz, no problem... with a bit of free time and diskspace... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallCDCustomizationHowTo [03:06] juliux, what interactive stuff do you want to do if the machines are installing all the time ? [03:06] ogra, i will have more than one machine there [03:07] i know. So far, if I do server install, then apt-get edubuntu-server, will this only install LTSP? (so I can ommit Gnome?) [03:07] mhz, i find it not very professional [03:07] mhz, i have tinker on it looks not very good [03:07] juliux: what would you need to make it more professional? suggestions? [03:07] mhz, should work... you'll need to edit a bit more === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.7.130.247] has joined #edubuntu [03:08] mhz, my idea is that you have a cd cover for slim case [03:08] juliux, thats the official CD sleeve we want to use, whats wrong with it ? [03:08] ogra, you didn't can close it [03:08] ?? [03:08] ? [03:10] h have i understand there something wrong? [03:10] there was some thing in the wiki [03:11] i will search the link [03:12] http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuCdAndSlip [03:12] this the second one i printet out [03:12] thats what were talking about [03:12] juliux: JaneW asked me to desing a very simple CD slip (or case) and a cover. Did you see last week update on it? http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuCdAndSlip [03:12] mhz, why did you drop the other CD label ? i liked it more [03:13] which? [03:13] there were two before the update [03:13] the one with the white world on red background? [03:13] the one with the circle of children [03:13] mhz, i have printed it here out and bond it [03:13] ogra: oh, nope. I can upload it as well (.svg?) [03:14] juliux: ok, what do you think of it? [03:14] yes, that would be nice :) [03:14] ogra: this last version is based on the few voting we had [03:15] oh, did we vote against the other label ? === mhz followed instructions only :D [03:15] mhz, it is to simple if you but it into your bag the cd will not be into the case [03:15] shit my english is to bad [03:16] juliux: why won't the cd stay into the case? [03:16] if you use the right cardboard, it will stay in the sleeve [03:16] mhz, because it is open, or is this for a cd case? i only put the cd into the paper [03:17] it was planned to be printed professionally on good carton [03:17] juliux: we used the same model of warty AMD and PPC models [03:17] it was open on one side [03:17] so yes, it may drop [03:17] mhz, yes and in my bag it drop out if i go with it to university [03:17] yes [03:17] I have same problem [03:17] :) [03:18] but again, they said "cd slip, just like the one we used before" [03:20] mhz, i think i would be better if there is a cd cover for a slim case, so you can use very cheap slimcace blank cd [03:20] if we ever ship it, we wont do that in a plasic case [03:20] juliux: besides the fact that cd will drop, what do you think about the colors, images, layout, etc? [03:21] mhz, that is ok [03:21] plastic is not environment friendly :) [03:21] mhz, but it would be nice if there is also a black/white version [03:21] juliux, the good thing then, if you like the stuff on it, you get the SVG and can copy/paste onto a cover for any purpose :) [03:22] mhz, because then you can print it yourselfe on your home laserprinter [03:22] good point [03:22] mhz, we did it so the last years with gnome live cds in germany [03:23] that's why the CD cover (the adhesive round stuff, for our understanding, not the cardboard) is Red and White so you can easily play with the colors [03:23] *shudder* [03:23] why not take a color laserprinter ? [03:24] if you dont have one, go to a copyshop [03:24] ogra, becaue the moste people have a no color laserprinter [03:24] juliux: hence, the edubuntu logo and words are all white [03:24] having B/W covers looks unprofessionally cheap [03:24] and the background is only plain red [03:24] ogra, it is very expensive if you make a color copy at the copyshop [03:24] this way everybosy can play with colors of their choice [03:24] ogra, one din a 4 site cost 70cent [03:24] how much ? 50ct ? [03:25] oh, so only 35ct for one then... [03:25] ogra, and on one din a site are only on!!!! cd cover [03:25] ogra, if you use silmcases 2 [03:26] ogra, if you have time please check http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Edubuntu [03:27] anyway, this design was thought for sipped CDs where we wanted to have it printed professionally... its easy to switch to b/w with gimp and its a SVG so youcan rip the elements apart as you like [03:28] but this is also work, and i didn't will do this if i only want to print out some cd's covers [03:28] for a fair [03:28] so just print them as is... [03:29] if you dont want to take the two clicks in gimp to make it a grayscaled image, just print the color version with a b/w printer... i doubt you'll see much difference [03:30] yes it isn't very much work but if you do that for edubuntu,ubuntu,kubuntu,xubuntu it is a lof of time [03:31] and it is double burden [03:31] there will be more than on who want to have a b/w version [03:32] if you think so... [03:32] yes i think so [03:32] so i have to go to my salsa session [03:32] cu [03:32] ciao === aeon17x [n=aeon17x@210.213.193.158] has joined #edubuntu [03:38] highvoltage: hi === mhz is uploading work v1 so ogra and others can make their own diff === Seveas [n=seveas@ubuntu/member/seveas] has joined #edubuntu [03:52] ogra: http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuCdAndSlip has been updated with your request === aeon17x [n=aeon17x@210.213.193.158] has left #edubuntu ["Leaving"] [03:59] i know. So far, if I do server install, then apt-get edubuntu-server, will this only install LTSP? (so I can ommit Gnome?) [04:00] ogra: you responded that 'yes'. But this mean LTSP will be ok? [04:00] (i can add applications, np) [04:01] mhz: i think edubuntu-server also installs stuff like schooltool, etc. [04:02] i think what you're looking for is ltsp-server-standalone [04:02] after installing that, you need to run ltsp-build-client as sudo/root. === \sh_away is now known as \sh [04:13] <\sh> ogra: ping [04:13] highvoltage: i am loking for NOT to install GNOME, only.
