paolobhola ogra!02:07
ograhey paolob 02:08
paolobogra: I resolved the problem with the slow downloading: it was the cable.02:15
paolobThe other problem (errors booting) was a bad ram02:15
ograi thought so ...02:15
ograsince you said it was always the same client02:16
ogranice to hear you solved it :)02:16
paolob:-)02:18
paolobOgra, I have a question. I have those 40 clients. May I switch all them all together (for example switching on the breakers), or is there any problem?02:21
ograyou mean putting them all on one switch ?02:23
paolobActually they load very slowly: is it because are switched on toghether02:23
ograthats also a drawback of the breezy ltsp ...02:24
ograit *is* booting very slow02:24
paolobno, I mean that I was switching them on all together, and the loading in the clients is very slow. Is it because they are switched on together?02:24
ograi dont think so ...02:24
ograa normal breezy client takes ~90 seconds to boot02:25
paolobThere is a _special_ delay after the line:02:25
ograin breezy we have all services on the client you also have on the desktop installation (which was quite silly) 02:26
paolobBegin: Running /script/nfs-premount - Done02:26
ograadditionally the nfs mountin is very slow02:26
ograyup02:26
ograexactly 02:26
paolobThis evening a client lasted 3 minutes there02:26
ograthere is a spec for faster booting in the next release, i'm working on that02:27
paolobbut does the client's cpu speed affect the client booting speed?02:27
ograhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinClientFasterStartup02:27
ogranope02:27
paolobBut then, why some client boots faster than other?02:27
ograits the amount of services that gets started, a sleep command in the nfs code which is totally useless02:27
ograthat might be a network thing ...02:28
paolobnetwork thing? why? I saw boot speed differences in clients connected to the same switch...02:29
ograhmm02:29
ogradifferent CPUs ?02:30
ograits very unlikely that the CPU speed affects the boot procee much ...02:30
paolobno, I thing the cpu is the same02:30
ograexecpt if you compare a PII 233 to a 1Ghz machine or so02:31
ograsame amount of ram ? 02:31
paolobI have pII/III 35002:31
paolobso the 3 min delay after  Begin: Running /script/nfs-premount - Done is normal?02:32
ogradid it happen on the first boot after the server was started ? there is a bug i couldnt track down yet, that causes a delay... but 3 min are very much02:37
ograi havent seen 3 min yet 02:38
ograsorry, need to reboot, brb02:38

mhzso no doctors, no hospitals, etc.03:18
neurogeekthats great03:18
mhzwere people happy with the foro03:19
neurogeekyes.. most people were happy with the foro.. it was a nice experience, but better you didn't invest that money in comming03:21
neurogeekbecause you would have made some impact, but not as much as you've wanted to03:22
mhzwhy?03:22
neurogeekthey are starting to organize next year's event.. that is going to be a whole better in that sense03:22
neurogeekbecause there were mostly people concerned with migration stuff.. and not a lot of people interested in education03:23
mhzoh03:24
mhzwere people interested in free access to IT?03:24
mhzand free access to knowledge?03:24
neurogeekyes, but not as much as i would like03:25
neurogeekbut we should start talking about plans and actions to be taken.. and start spreading words from now on03:25

mhzneurogeek: cool03:27
mhzubuntu-marketing is working on some nice initiatives03:27
neurogeekperfect.. 03:28
mhzpersonally, i like the idea of UbuntuInStore day03:28
neurogeekwhats that??03:29
mhzand regardign edubuntu, I have just finished my first proposal for edubuntu invitations, so people (teachers, parents, etc) receive one for edubuntu demos.03:29
neurogeekexcellent03:29
mhzwhat?03:29
mhzhttp://wiki.edubuntu.org/UbuntuInStoresDay03:29
mhzalso, magicfab (Fabian...) has done an Ubuntu 'leaflet' (similar to a diptico) for spanish efforts03:30
mhzand, last but not least, magicfab has also started UbuntuInLibraries03:31
mhzvery coold idea!03:31
neurogeekyes.. jejeje it is a very nice idea03:32
mhzand me, neurogeek, in case you wish to jump up, I am starting to work on windowmaker themed for edubuntu light boxes03:32
mhzneurogeek: which of all?03:33
neurogeekall of them.. UbuntuInLibraries(Stores) and the Ubuntu leaflet03:34
neurogeeki would rather use fluxbox instead of windowmaker.... 03:34
neurogeekbut i could help, some way or another03:35
mhzand I should have a meeting with Pablo (designer volutneered for edubuntu stuff) about desktops design for 3 set of ages03:35
mhzneurogeek: I showed fluxbox to very non linux people (wife, mom, dad, etc)  THey paniced03:35
neurogeekhehehe i could imagine those faces.03:36
mhzogra: JaneW: hi.  What should I say to Pablo? which set of desktop should we work on for dapper? 03:36
mhzindeed03:37
mhzbut maybe I didn't customize it very much03:37
ograi thought you already decided that03:37
mhzogra: but you mentioned a hired designer that will help03:37
ograand its your decision ...03:37
mhzjust you didnt know which set 03:37
ograyes, for the default desktop03:37
ograah, k03:38
ograthe edubutu-artwork package will have 3 choices for different ages ...03:38
mhzyup03:38
ograi havent heard back from jane silber yet 03:38
mhzhmm, any ideas how soon we could know?03:39
ogramight take some weeks ... i think she first wants to have this person 03:39
mhzor... can we just decide for 2 artowrks and the person works on the pending one?03:39
ograbut there is no problem adding a fourth option "community contributed" to the package03:39
ogranope, i'd like to clerify it with the management first ...03:40
mhzok, it just that i am trying to set priorities03:40
ograthe last minute artwork change in breezy caused a lot of trouble ... i wont do that again03:40
mhzand, you know the date for daper freeze?03:40
ograsee DapperReleaseSchedule ...03:41
mhzduh! ok03:41

mhzneurogeek: btw, ogra  needs people with py skills :)03:41
ograabsolutely ...03:42
neurogeekogra, nice to meet you.. if i can be of any help.. just let me know03:42
mhzneurogeek: there are lots of things to do03:42
ograi have a bzr archive with several projects, feel free to branch one or the other: http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/03:42
ogra:)03:43
mhzneurogeek: and ogra needs people hands for py so he can have spare time for the girlfriend :D03:43
neurogeekOk03:43
neurogeeki'll take a look03:44
neurogeekjejeje03:44
ogramhz, heh, she will be pleased to hear :)03:44
mhzneurogeek: thx03:44
mhz:) i thought so, ogra03:44
mhzneurogeek: and in case i can write a proper mail yet, please spread the word that people can now happily visit #edubuntu-es (so no excuses)03:45
mhz:)03:45
neurogeekOK. i'll do that03:46
mhzcool03:46
mhzogra: i dont want to bug but it's been long since I wrote 2 mails to mako and ping him in IRC (no that long here), and still zero answer. Today is not a big deal to me because first article is on its way to distribution but next article I'd like to see the list update.03:57
ogramhz, i cant reach him on other ways than you ...03:58
ograsorry ...03:59
ograi could only mail him or ping him on IRC as well ...04:00
ograi promise i'll ask him if i see him around ..04:00
mhzthx, and I hope you/him understand this "buging" is caused only because I did mention the url in 2 articles.04:01
mhzand don't wanna look like a liar or lier04:01
ograi understand you very well ... and i agree that its a uncomfortable situation... but since mako doesnt work for canonical anymore he's very busy ...04:03
ograand hard to catch04:03
