[11:22] aleXL: hm, sorry i don't really know, that is very strange - as if grub does something which is undone by the first w2k boot - #ubuntu might be worth a try (640 users in there atm) [11:23] will do... yep, thought a bit odd... === aleXL [n=aleXL@floydt.plus.com] has joined #edubuntu [11:43] hello [11:54] hey === ..[topic/#edubuntu:lucasvo] : The discussion channel for Edubuntu - the education version of Ubuntu | Mailing list: http://lists.ubuntu.com edubuntu-devel | [12:03] Wiki: http://www.edubuntu.org | MEETING: on #ubuntu-meeting.

[12:08] Thinking 'bout mind-mapping software too... [12:08] Yagisan, yes, i was shocked [12:08] aleXL, freemind didnt compile with gcj ... [12:09] juliux: What are they saying overseas ? I know why the riots started, but they won't say it on tv here. [12:09] aleXL, i looked at it for breezy .... there is a gcj port going on afaik, if we can have it in the default instal, we'll ship it .. [12:09] Yagisan, here in germany until yet not very much, but i don't read a daily newspaper [12:10] Yagisan, i have read something that they have attac attendat, but i don't think that this is true [12:11] Yagisan, i think that this was an cause but not the base [12:12] juliux, basically, last week a *large* group of Lebanese men, attacked an beat up volunteer lifeguards because the lifeguards were white. [12:13] juliux, it was the final catalyst for the riots [12:13] Yagisan, large==? [12:13] Yagisan, yes it was a case but not the base [12:13] juliux as in about 6 or more men [12:13] Yagisan, an how much white people was it in the last days? 5000 ? [12:14] juliux, but proir to that, we have had gang rapes of white women and girls by Lebanese men [12:14] claiming that they could do it, as the white people didn't follow the koran. [12:15] and apparently girls harassed on beaches by muslim men? So says news in uk... [12:15] They are on tv saying that they hate all non Lebanese people [12:15] yep, that too aleXL [12:15] Yagisan, very strange [12:15] so *finally* something snapped [12:16] and the white guys started retailiating [12:16] in a dumb-arse way [12:16] 'humanity to others' eh? [12:16] and now, they are the "racists" [12:16] Yagisan, i think that you have this all over the world [12:16] I mean, pot-kettle-black [12:18] On Sunday, the white people rioted, on Monday, the Lebanese rioted. And it's almost time for another one [12:19] ogra_, this is very cool http://www.golem.de/showhigh2.php?file=/0511/41498.html [12:20] juliux, yup, heard about it [12:20] ogra_, but atm very expansive [12:21] i have no idea if the Au1550 s even linux supported === Yagisan forgot why he logged in [12:25] Yagisan, seen the last three ltsp changelogs ? [12:25] :) [12:25] I know there was something I wanted to ask, oh well. I'll remember it later [12:28] ogra_: no, not yet. I'll check it out in a moment. Need to lock the doors as some hoons are outside, and give the little girl a bath [12:28] oh, v 0.60 wasnt uploaded :( [12:28] back in a bit. Hopefully I'll remember by then. [12:28] that was the multiarch patch ... its not separately on the -changes list [12:29] but its in current dapper now :) [12:29] (with some small changes) [12:30] i.e. you have to say --arch i386 or --arch powerpc .... mdz wanted the --arch keyword in front ... === jinty [n=jinty@115.Red-80-24-9.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu [12:52] re [12:52] ogra_, mdz is picky isn't he [12:53] yup, but that makes the quality of the distro ;) [12:53] just in case anyone is wondering why I mentioned the riots, well I'm the only white guy, in an all lebanese area [12:54] be lucky... [12:55] thanks aleXL, I'm actually more worried about my non-white wife and kids [12:56] Luck to them too... d'u know how I can use the spell check f7 to run festival? I'm really green at this... [12:56] within oo2 or txteditor? === jinty [n=jinty@115.Red-80-24-9.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu [12:58] ogra_: nice to see multiarch in 0.60. He didn't like ls in the update-sshkeys ? [12:59] nope, he made it a find call [12:59] aleXL, sorry no. What is festival ? [12:59] text2speech...

[01:02] nope, thats in findutils [01:04] ogra: K, it's required anyway, so no missing dependency. === pc22 [n=buknoy@58.69.7.29] has joined #edubuntu === sven-tek [n=sven-tek@p508E4D0D.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #edubuntu ["Leaving"] [01:11] just reinstalled, sites with java wont work with my browsers.. pls help [01:12] pc22, you need to install java ... edubuntu cant ship it preinstalled [01:12] pc22: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats (look for Java) [01:12] i did [01:12] but repositories wont work [01:12] the one from the miultiverse repository ? [01:12] they do here [01:13] pc22, the one from multiverse are the only ones tested and proven to work, if you use another java i cant help ... [01:15] install j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin from multiverse, it brings everything with it and configures everything for you [01:15] can u quote me your exact re: so i have the idea whats on your side. cos i checked all in from my side even those that are disabled [01:16] ?? [01:19] referring to this http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main restricted universe multiverse [01:20] ? [01:21] ogra? [01:22] looks fine [01:22] yes [01:22] so sudo apt-get install j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin should give you all you need, except you have installed another java, that would break it [01:23] meaning? [01:24] if you have sun java installed in /usr/local the one from the repos is ignored for example ... [01:24] ok [01:24] if you have it installed in the same place as the package installs in you mix up the contents of the package and suns java, that breaks as well [01:25] so stick with the repositorys and you are fine packages w offer are normally tested and dont require additional setup ... [01:26] thanks ogra downloading now [01:26] great :) [01:26] hope this will work [01:27] it will [01:27] what about w32 codecs? lol [01:27] they are totally illegal to redistribute [01:27] so you have to find them yourself ... [01:28] but i think the RestrictedFormats wikipage has some hints [01:28] its not illegal in our country lol === stecam [n=almaadmi@201.22.72.107.adsl.gvt.net.br] has joined #edubuntu [01:28] its illegal in every counntry [01:28] the different licenses of the included codecs violate each other ... [01:29] there is no country law that could circumvent it [01:30] lol [01:30] ogra: IIRC if you own a Windows license, you cam use the w32codecs [01:30] s/cam/can [01:30] pc22, but unless you *really* need wmv9 format, don't bother with it [01:31] Yagisan, what about the quicktime, real and other third party codecs included in the package ? of hich some have a sentence in the license that forbids redistribution alongside with other codecs ? [01:31] what about quicktime movies [01:31] the prob are not the windows codecs in there ... its the mix of different codecs [01:31] quicktime can usually be done with a mpeg4 decoder [01:32] asf [01:32] ogra: those codecs can't be used on windows then [01:32] Yagisan, but stil soerensen and friends are in the package ;) [01:32] pc22 asf == wmv9 == msmpeg4 [01:32] they can, but only with special distribution permission [01:32] k [01:33] pc22, msmpeg4 as usual, isn't fully compatable with mpeg4. unless you are into web porn, you won't miss it. [01:34] and you shouldnt be into web porn with a edu distro anyway *g* [01:34] ogra: isn't apple the only user of soerensen ? [01:34] Yagisan, quicktime is, yes === Yagisan learnt a lot about codecs recently [01:34] i dont go porn === Yagisan had to back up his dvds [01:34] oh fun ... [01:35] on pc [01:35] lol [01:35] did you know the guy who developed decss2 is living in the US now ... [01:35] My little girl was teething on my dvds :( [01:35] so decss2 might die some day ... [01:35] since he wont be able to develop it further [01:36] ogra: unlikely. There is always someone determined to use the products they have purchased. [01:36] hmmm [01:36] yes, there might be maintainers ... [01:36] but the genius is gone :/ [01:38] ogra: I always wonder why so-called genius's go to the USA. Why would you willingly go to a non-free country ? [01:38] money [01:38] he was bought by linspire [01:38] with my interest in security, I'd get the governments interest very quickly, and not the good type. [01:38] i still wonder how he manages not to go into jail.. the RIAA will be after him for sure [01:39] I'd like money too, but not that much. [01:39] whats with edubuntu? is it just ubuntu repackaged? [01:40] its ubuntu with added value and built around ltsp [01:40] pc22: It's a customised version of ubuntu, targeted at schools [01:40] it is a low-cost, high quality alternative [01:40] to M$, and costs less to run [01:40] btw, if anyone likes to test the daily install CDs, they should be safe for a first test [01:41] LiveCD is on its way, ETA end of the week [01:42] ogra: every few hours we get asked "Is there a live cd yet ? Is there a live cd yet ? Is there a live cd yet ? Is there a live cd yet ?" [01:43] yes, there is, its just not up until Kamion and Mithradir give their ok [01:43] which is due during the week ... [01:46] java wont load? do i have to restart computer? [01:47] nope [01:47] define "java wont load" [01:47] what do you try ? [01:47] online.sector.sk [01:47] which java ? [01:47] games [01:48] i want to play java games [01:48] Yagisan, the one from multiverse [01:49] do i have to reinstall edubuntu? [01:49] brb [01:49] there are no java games on this page [01:50] pc22, install flashplayer-mozilla [01:50] the games are all flash games [01:50] flash is ok [01:50] on java [01:50] there are java games inside [01:50] hmm, no idea then ... i only see flash [01:51] and java works for me on amd64 and i386 here ... [01:51] re [01:54] pc22: please go here and see if it works http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml [01:54] you should see an ugly dancing java logo [01:56] nothing [01:57] do you see java listed if you type about:plugins in the location bar ? [01:58] pc22: did you restart firefox ? [01:59] shouldnt be needed anymore ... [02:00] hey its working now [02:00] ogra: doesn't hurt [02:01] it says you are using an older version [02:01] Yagisan, yes,that might be true :) [02:03] pc22: that's because the repo has 1.4 [02:03] pc22: don't worry about it [02:04] do i need the new one/. [02:04] pc22: most java is written for earlier versions. You only need 1.5 for azureus [02:04] for the web, I happily use the one in multiverse [02:04] with no issues [02:05] sigh [02:05] i wonder [02:05] pc22: sun just released a new version for the hell of it === Yagisan was forced to do java programming [02:06] most of this stuff only needs java 1.3 [02:07] Yagisan, where do i get cool themes [02:07] i want an enlightenment look [02:08] pc22: most apps starting with gtk2-engines are themes already packaged [02:09] but the most customising I do is remove the background wall paper, and increase the font sizes === gand__ [n=gand@81-208-84-206.ip.fastwebnet.it] has joined #edubuntu [02:12] can i see your screenshot?

[02:13] your desktop [02:13] As in Administrtin ->service FTP is enabled but port 21 is closed!!

[02:15] pc22: not unless you have a) an nvidia card >= 6x00 [02:15] b) have the composite mananger loaded [02:15] default edubuntu I suppose [02:15] c) have a grunty pc instead of a), [02:15] gand__, there is no ftp server installed in edubuntu, you must have installed one manually [02:16] and d) like the pc to crash a lot, as composite is unstable [02:16] i have bividia [02:16] nvi === Yagisan is off to find some batteries [02:16] I see that in System->Administration->Services->FTP is checked! [02:16] gand__, thats the tftp server for booting the thin clients [02:17] OK, install FTP server via synaptic package manager? [02:17] apparently a bug in the services admin tool, that only checks for the string ftp in the service name [02:17] yup [02:17] Ok I suppose It mean that a FTP server was running :) [02:18] yes, its a bug, thatnks for pointing that out, i'll talk to the service admin guy to fix that [02:19] do you have a FTP server to suggest me to install via Synaptic PK manager? [02:19] there is a supported one ... [02:20] supported packages have a ubuntu logo near them [02:20] (for supported packages you have guaranteed security support, might be important for ftp :) ) [02:21] re [02:21] Yes I see that I've a HPA's tftp server already Installed ! How start it :) [02:21] thats not a ftp server [02:21] and it runs by default [02:21] tftp is for netbooting thin clients [02:22] you cant do much more with it [02:22] opps I'm confusing tftp with ftp sorry [02:22] i think there is vftp or vsftp ... [02:22] thats the one you might want [02:22] it should start automatically after you installed it [02:24] yes VSFTPD The Very Secure FTP Daemon :) [02:24] great, take that one :) === gand__ install vsftpd === gand__ thanks to ogra [02:25] :) === zakame [n=zak@210.213.80.4] has joined #edubuntu [02:28] Yes it work only with anonymous, Now I've to confiugure to manage account?

[02:45] make a ftp group (if it doesnt exist yet) and give write permissions to that grou ? [02:46] then add your admin account to it [02:46] Ok I try :) [02:47] just a guess :) [02:47] As I dont'k now wery well how to manage group and permission [02:47] Now I try using GUI [02:47] thre is a gui for user management [02:47] heh [02:47] :) [02:50] well with "add group...

[02:52] yes, change the group permissions of the foleder [02:53] I was owned by root, I change to FTPgroup? [02:53] as i said, i'm just guessing, the ftp server might prevent you from writing to it, i'm not sure [02:53] yes [02:53] leave the user as root, but change the group [02:53] ok, i was asking that [02:53] and then give the group write permissions [02:55] ok: owner:root group: ftpgroup 775 [02:56] yup [02:57] if that doesnt work, i have no real idea ... but there will be docs on the net how to do it i guess [02:57] are this permission applied to all nested folder/file?

After all, you definately do much stuff [03:29] thanks bye [03:29] arent they on freenode as well ? [03:30] it seems not, I am not sure :( [03:30] ogra: TB meeting?

[03:31] :) [03:31] bah, scping isos over wireless is soo slow ... === platos [n=jark@a80-126-110-57.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #edubuntu [03:32] ogra: I have been working on a set of Gartoon Icons (64x64) for Wmaker, even the clip. I still ignore how they get to be 'default' once a person installs something like edubuntu-wmaker [03:32] ogra: you are nuts! wifi is slow [03:32] try wi-max [03:32] yes... [03:32] 70 mbps [03:33] i only have a 5Mbit card here [03:33] oh [03:33] why not use RJ45? [03:33] and in dapper CD writing is broken, so i have to move the isos to a breezy box [03:33] hehehehe [03:33] hi === mhz wouldnt wanna be ogra [03:33] hi platos [03:34] does anyone know how to configure sound on ltsp? [03:34] i've tried some things, but it doesnt quite work [03:34] platos: sound is not ready in breezy [03:35] platos: dapper may have that solved [03:35] platos, its about to enter dapper ... [03:35] i know, but isnt there an hack around that? [03:35] sure [03:35] thats the spec how i implement it in dapper https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinClientAudioSupport [03:36] you can use it for breezy ... === vmarks [n=vmarks@adsl-065-015-231-005.sip.rmo.bellsouth.net] has joined #edubuntu [03:36] ok, i'll give that a try [03:36] thanks [03:36] i also have a bazaar branch for the implementation: http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/ltsp/sound/ [03:36] but thats based on dapper already [03:37] (but might help) [03:37] well i've tried upgrading to dapper, but somehow the clients wouldnt boot after that [03:37] id you only upgrade the server or also the chroot [03:37] it boots fine for me [03:37] (i hae X issues on one client though) [03:38] i updated the server and then i runned ltsp-build-client [03:38] ouch [03:38] and it looks like it couldnt find the pxe image [03:38] it was really weird [03:38] never do that if you already have an existing chroot [03:38] i removed the old one first :) [03:39] just chroot into it and run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [03:39] and is sound implemented then? [03:39] and afterwards run ltsp-update-kernels to move the new kernbel into the PXE root for booting [03:39] not yet [03:39] but i can use your bazaar thing for that right? [03:40] i sent it to mdz for review yesterday, but he's on holiday since today for a week ... [03:40] oh so it would be implemented in januari or something ilke that? [03:40] yes, you can copy the appropriate pieces into place, but be vey careful [03:40] *like that? [03:40] earlier [03:40] i guess in two weeks it will be in ... [03:41] you then have to set SOUND = 1 or SOUND = True in your lts.conf [03:41] the rest will be automatic [03:41] oh well, i guess i'll try to do it myself first and if it goes wrong, i guess i'll always have my ghost [03:41] heh [03:41] isnt it SOUND=Y ? [03:41] he [03:41] nope [03:41] platos, it could also be SOUND=platos ;) [03:41] eihter 0 or 1 [03:42] LOl [03:42] the script only checks if SOUND contains something ;) [03:42] oooh [03:42] lol [03:42] cool [03:42] even 0 woul enable it [03:42] ogra: and you did that? [03:42] hmm, which might be a bug ... [03:42] mhz, yup ... [03:42] it is cool! it shows the 'haching' spirit, congrats! [03:43] hacking [03:43] the only bit thats missing is some change in the desktop audio autodetection... [03:43] but thats waiting for gstreamer 0.10 [03:43] well, that could be dapper +1 [03:43] nope [03:43] its dapper [03:43] why? [03:43] we switch to a new sound model on the desktop ... [03:43] oh, you wanna do it all, for dapper? [03:44] which one? alsa? [03:44] ok, now i see [03:44] fully autodetection and alsa prefered over esd [03:44] interesting [03:44] so i have to write a ltspsink for gstreamer that gets preferred if LTSP_CLIENT is set [03:44] else it would default to alsa and wouldnt work [03:45] good point [03:45] dapper+1 will drop esd, even on thin clients and we'll try something completely new, fully gstreamer based [03:45] or with luck even more low level by a direct alsa transport [03:45] wow, well good luck with that. Isn't that a problem with gnome? [03:46] nope [03:46] gnome switches to gstreamer with this release [03:46] all libesd calls should be gone ... [03:47] yay thats great [03:47] yup [03:47] finally some luck with my project [03:47] ad if we manage the alsa stuff for dapper+1 you'll have encrypted audio through ssh ... [03:48] and will most likely even be able to control the volume ... whic is not possible with esd [03:48] that would be nice, as esd is a little unprotected i've read :P [03:48] doesnt matter on readolny systems like our thin clients are ... [03:49] its just that students an modify the output ip .... [03:49] so i could play sounds on yourthin client from mne ;) [03:49] lol, i'm gonna disable the console for my students [03:49] btw i'm upgrading to dapper as we speak [03:49] there is stillthe terminal :) [03:50] hm, well i live in holland and its for an primary school [03:50] and in holland most children aren't so into linux, so they dont even know what an console is [03:50] so thats my luck [03:50] heh === ogra waves over the border .... [03:51] oh belgium or germany? [03:51] germany ... [03:51] in the eifel to be precise [03:51] well i live about 2km near the border ^^ [03:51] about 80km away from belgium/nl [03:51] of germany that is [03:52] i live near enschede [03:52] ah, nice thats near [03:53] but i'm still a linux starter though [03:53] we all were once :) [03:53] I started this schoolyear with linux, and I simply love it [03:54] great :) [03:55] yupz, i started with fedora, tried suse and fell in love with ubuntu ;) [03:56] but anyways, i have to compile the software in the bazaar link you gave me right? [03:57] how do i do that? [03:57] can i use ./configure && ./make and then copy the files [03:57] or do i have to use gcc seperately [03:57] the just copy them in place [03:58] nothing to compile [03:58] oh just bash scripts? [03:58] great [03:59] http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/ltsp/sound/client/ldm needs to go to /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/sbin/ for example ... [03:59] and thats for dapper right? [03:59] yup [03:59] i'll definitely try that out and report my findings [04:00] and http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/ltsp/sound/debian/ltsp-client.ltsp-client-setup.init should be copied to become /opt/ltsp/i386/etcinit.d/ltsp-client-setup [04:00] then just make sure to install esound-clents on the server and esound in the chroot [04:00] shit [04:00] *esound-clients [04:00] did i miss a meeting today? [04:01] spacey, nope [04:01] thanks, i'll copy that down [04:01] do you want one ? [04:01] no [04:01] but normally its on tuesday right [04:01] we can easily set one up if you got withrawal occurences ;) [04:01] :D [04:01] nope, on wednesday [04:01] oh ok [04:01] :) [04:02] good:P [04:02] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event ;) [04:02] wouldn't want to miss out on the fun :P [04:02] there is also an ical file for evolution ... === ogra goes to write the new CDs for tests....

[04:41] and my breezy box is my headless ltsp server :) [04:41] so i write it remote from a thin client [04:41] that's another reason I prefer command line over GUI (to know why an error occured) [04:41] wow [04:42] I do that all the time :) for CDs [04:42] ogra_thin: : I have been working on a set of Gartoon Icons (64x64) for Wmaker, even the clip. I still ignore how they get to be 'default' once a person installs something like edubuntu-wmaker [04:43] you should submit them to the gartoon author, so he can include them .... [04:43] I'd like to know what else should i take care of regarding this idea. (so far, I am on wallpaper, style colors and icons) [04:43] as long as wmaker uses freedesktop stamdards (which every WM should nowadays) it should work fine [04:44] yes, but besides the wallpaper, style colors and icons.. what else? [04:45] buttons? [04:45] i dont know, its years ago that i saw wmaker the last time [04:46] mhz: menu? [04:46] mhz: desktop icons? [04:46] isnt that style _ [04:46] lucasvo: ? [04:46] the menu i mean [04:47] mhz: you are doing a design? [04:47] mhz: style? === mhz is getting lost [04:47] lucasvo: I am working on a wmaker theme and iconing for edubuntu users [04:48] mhz, i would just grab another design you consider complete and exchange the bits and pieces [04:48] so far, wallpaper + using reduced-size gartoon icons + stylus colors [04:48] ogra_thin: yes, but icons are not set there, are set manually [04:49] thats buggy [04:49] yes [04:49] I even changed the clip [04:49] why dont you use xfce [04:49] for a dapper clip [04:49] dapper wrong [04:49] gartoon clip, right [04:49] wmaker will never end up in main, you will always have to tweak a lot [04:50] xfce will move to main in dapper as a lightweight alternative [04:50] ogra_thin: my knowledge is xfce is not optimal for servers that do not have 128 RAM p/client. [04:50] xfce runs fine with about 64MB or less per client [04:51] and wmaker works much faster then. My idea of a wmaker edubuntu desktop is that those users/schools can just install something like edubuntu-wmaker [04:51] 128 is a gnome/kde value [04:51] and get the icons and the theme/style al ltogether [04:51] then rather call it edubuntu-wmaker-style [04:52] and build it based on other style packages that might exist [04:52] ogra_thin: I agree xfce runs fine, but again, consider this: server with 512 MB and 20 clients [04:52] will run fine [04:52] xfce is very lightweigt [04:53] but still freedesktop compliant [04:53] yup, and wmaker is even faster [04:53] and incompatible to everything ... [04:53] oh, i missed that part. [04:53] icompatible? [04:53] you will have a lot of work with manual setting up menu changes etc [04:54] wmaker apparently doesnt follow the freedesktop standard thats used everywhere [04:54] ogra_thin: so, no way I prepare a wmaker set that does not require manual config? [04:55] so menu changes or adding icons will be a pain for a normal teacher [04:55] if you (the teacher) installs an app, how will it show up in th emenu [04:56] simple, it is there [04:56] or if no rebooting, then you have to run update-menus [04:56] so does it or does it not follow freedesktop and menu-xdg standards [04:57] no idea, i can find out [04:57] then you get a debian menu [04:57] yup [04:57] update-menus builds debian menus regardless if you have a age or class dependent menu [04:57] my menus are not intend to show icons. I am making apps use gartoon icons [04:57] it will just ignore all the edubuntu specifics [04:58] oh [04:58] crap [04:58] since these are waved wround freedesktop standards [04:58] ooops, sorry... sheeps [04:58] heh [04:58] hmmmm [04:58] so, you say wmaker is not an option [04:59] ogra__: ? [04:59] if you want it easy for the teacher i doubt that, but as i said, i didnt use it for years... might have all changed === ogra_thin goes to do a test install now ... laters [05:00] lucasvo: opinions?

[08:30] jup [08:31] lets keep this channel english, or open a #edubuntu-d channel ;) [08:31] ok [08:31] np [08:31] * #edubuntu-de [08:31] then i think i will install it on my sister's pc [08:32] the CD only contains the english language packs due to space issues, so you need a network connection during install with it.... or you take the DVD which contains all 90 languages we offer [08:33] thats no prob, have a 3Mbit connection [08:34] great [08:35] the apps theselves have their translations in the language packs we offer ... we plan to make separate language pack CDs in the future to make translation updates available ... [08:35] but thats the future ... only in planning state yet [08:36] that's enough for me [08:37] :) [08:37] i'm planning to give my sister my old pc [08:37] and dont have time to secure her pc and patch every hole in the xp machine, so i will just stick with edubuntu [08:38] have ubuntu on my machine too [08:38] and everything just works fine [08:38] so hope edubuntu will work too [08:38] that should apply to edubuntu as well [08:38] ;) [08:38] make sure to read http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuInstallNotes before installing [08:38] i guess you dont need a classroom install ;) [08:38] me too [08:43] ogra: cool [08:43] ogra: I am talking about your speech [08:44] ogra: I am intersted in use for older students....

[08:55] you can just change the sources.list file [08:55] ogra: s/breezy/dapper/g ? [08:55] change all occurences of breezy to dapper [08:55] yup [08:56] but beware its a development release, you migt see breakage noody knows about yet :) [08:56] *nobody [08:56] the hardware detection, initramfs and kernel changed completely, so GAU might be it doesnt boot anymore [08:57] ok [08:57] also dont use the dist-upgrade command of apt in a development release [08:58] ok [08:58] only use the upgrade command and cherrypick packages that are held back manually [08:59] E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room [08:59] E: Error occurred while processing libkonq4 (NewVersion1) [08:59] E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status [08:59] E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. === jinty [n=jinty@115.Red-80-24-9.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu [09:19] ogra: when I update: [09:19] http://pastebin.com/462706 < sources.list [09:19] 20:59 < lucasvo> E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room [09:19] lucasvo, after the meeting please [09:20] ogra: ok === jinty [n=jinty@115.Red-80-24-9.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu === Elsan [n=geno@MTL-HSE-ppp208249.qc.sympatico.ca] has joined #edubuntu === loogaroo [n=manuel@u-124-094.adsl.univie.ac.at] has joined #edubuntu === pitux [n=pitux@187-176-222-201.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #edubuntu === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has joined #edubuntu [09:46] ogra, is there a need for a lighter edubuntu? [09:46] if so I'll need to at least think of how it affects xubuntu and maybe help out [09:46] janimo, there is a lot of user demand ... [09:46] for the server or the thin clients? [09:47] thats the same [09:47] i can explain you ltsp a bit after the meeting ... [09:47] ah I thought the server is a beefy machine running gnome [09:48] and the clients smallish hw, hence the lightweight ldm (or so I thought) [09:48] no hurry [09:48] ldm is a security decision ... [09:59] janimo: I'll give it a try.... [09:59] lucasvo, ? :) [10:00] you have a server(running X, usually the full edubuntu installation) [10:00] ah ltsp/edubuntu setup explanation, ok [10:00] a client is nothing else than a small linux booting into ldm. [10:01] ldm then makes sure you authenticate yourself and sets up a connection to an Xclient running on the server [10:01] using the Xserver on the client(where ldm was running) === francoisb [n=francois@lns-bzn-43-82-249-146-215.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu [10:01] and you install two falvors of edubuntu on server and client? [10:02] for e.g. it starts up a gnome session [10:02] server = ubuntu + edubuntu=server + ... [10:03] client ~= ubuntu-server+ltsp thingies [10:03] aha, so gnome is installed only on server? [10:03] in a default setup I mean [10:03] yes [10:03] there isn't any Xclient on the client [10:03] only Xserver [10:03] which uses ssh to connect to Xclient running on the server [10:04] which side would benefit more from a lightweigth desktop? [10:05] server [10:05] the (lightweigth) desktop runs on the Server(xclient) [10:05] so it handles more clients with same amount of RAM? [10:05] yes [10:06] and the clients(Xserver) are affected also I assume, but not as much? [10:06] I guess some apps keep data in the xserver [10:06] ok, back [10:06] not as much === janimo recalls some recent firefox bloatage and pixmap usage in the Xserver [10:07] thats marginal ... [10:07] ogra: is it normal thath 400packages are held back? [10:07] the prob currently is that you need about 128MB per client on your server [10:08] lucasvo, yup, thats normal if you dont use dist upgrade, especially if you use any KDE stuff [10:08] because of bloatware gnome [10:08] for KDE its even more [10:08] hm, another reason to kick out my kde [10:08] wow, that is a lot [10:09] does it have to do with ltsp specifics or just plain desktop app memory use? [10:09] (/me doesn't agree with linus about kde & gnome) [10:09] so for a 20 client setup you need some GB of ram, which is fine in most cases in the US or germany or other rich countries [10:09] holy pig [10:09] I thought a 512M would be just fine [10:09] janimo: ever tried to run gnome on 32MB of ram? [10:09] but we have many requests for smaller setups from southamerica or southaftica where you simply dont have the funds in a school for such a big server [10:10] I thought the server can reuse some same RAM [10:10] so having xubuntu installable as an alternative desktop would be great [10:10] at least for shared libs it should right, independent of clients? [10:10] yes, some is shared [10:10] so this is what all LTSP installs require? [10:10] you wouldnt want to run gnome or KDE below 256MB nowadays on a standalone system [10:11] so there is already a lot sharing going on [10:11] janimo for e.g. revamp-it.ch (a charity organisation in Zurich) I work with is using old pc's in affrica with ltsp [10:11] yes, somehow I always thought of the L in LTSP as lightweight, and because of thin client I assumed thins server too :) [10:11] the client isnt counting here [10:11] well that's true for romania (where I live too) [10:11] its only the server and the ram usage for the desktops there that matters === zdziczek [n=zdziczek@sociology.sbs.umass.edu] has joined #edubuntu [10:12] cool so a xubuntu would maybe even double the number of clients per same amount of RAM [10:12] yup [10:12] even though the major hugs are X and firefox which we use too :) [10:12] When I start a session on an Edubuntu client, does the client or the server handle the CPU, Memory load? [10:12] its usual that people using ltsp use icewm or something similar [10:12] zdziczek, the server [10:13] ogra, so if 20 people all had OpenOffice working from client machines, the server would choke on memory? [10:13] janimo, but it think xcfe can cope with it and is better to integrate [10:13] I actually think of having icewm included too, maybe we can colaborate with ubuntulite as they have lightweight apps but are not working closely enough to be maintainable [10:13] zdziczek, generally we say you need 128MB per client for the server plus 256MB for the server itself, then it should work smoothly [10:14] it could fit on the CD as it is small if some people show interest and do the work. ButI have only today asked for renewing talks with Ulite [10:14] indeed xfce will not be heavy while also not looking like 1993 [10:14] ogra, that's a lot of memory! [10:14] janimo, i tried to work with them when i had a SoC student a while back, it somehow didnt work [10:14] ah I remember about seeing that spec [10:14] this time we'll make it :) [10:15] zdziczek, not really, if you compare with a standalone system [10:15] ogra, there is no way to utilize the CPU/Memory of the thin clients where possible? [10:15] just let me know if anything is needed in xubuntu besides base desktop being usable and installable [10:15] like special tricks you do to install/gnome etc [10:15] zdziczek, not yet ... something in this direction will be done in dapper+1 (the october release) [10:15] zdziczek: debian + openmosix + kernel 2.4+ a lot of work is what you need [10:15] good progress [10:16] also, do you know how to set the default application for file types for all clients at once? [10:16] finally usplash for the client, juhu! [10:16] like say, PDFs [10:16] zdziczek, but as i just said to janimo, if you run a standalone gnome or KDE desktop you wouldnt want to use less than 256MB on the machine, so 128MB per lient with one of tese desktops is already a good win [10:17] in those 128M per client X is not included at all right?just apps [10:17] zdziczek, you can do that via gconf settings, there is a administrator handbook for gnome on gnome.org somewhere, not sure how much out of date it is [10:17] ogra, yes i didnt mean it that way -- i just meant if you have a large lab -- you'd need to have many servers or a farm [10:17] janimo, X doesnt run on the server [10:18] (doesnt need to) [10:18] zdziczek, yup, thats the drawback [10:18] so a 128M/client is actually a bit more that 128M on a standalone desktop as X is not counted [10:18] janimo: 128MB per client on the server only [10:19] the clients need about 64MB to boot and run the X server in fullcolor mode ... [10:19] on the client-pc you just need enough for X to run [10:19] as if client had 128 + the amount already holding base system + Xserver [10:19] switching down to 16bit should get you to 48MB [10:19] is the X server or the base system eating the more ram? [10:20] the client uses its ram only for booting and starting up X [10:20] janimo: X server [10:20] maybe Tiny-X could be evaled? [10:20] just a thought [10:20] nope [10:20] we rely 100% on our xorg packages and their autodetection capabilities [10:20] even if they aren't working :D [10:20] I mean if tiny-x got packaged.it is in 7.0 AFAIK [10:21] the big advantage with the ubuntu ltsp is that you dont need to configure anything [10:21] that's true. [10:21] it takes about 10 min [10:22] but in such large setups if there's a knowledgable admin a lot of resources could be saved with some advanced tweaks.anyway irrelevant at this point [10:22] cool, if only I could find a room with many boxes to try it out :) [10:22] schools here seems to shy away from free stuff. [10:23] got brainwashed from upstream === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu [10:24] janimo: the problem is that for e.g. in kongo there isn't enough money to pay IT specialist... so tweaking is no option [10:24] true [10:25] volunteers maybe :) === ogra_ [n=ogra@p5089F9F2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu === ogra_ kicks hisprovider [10:25] janimo: do you know someboyd who wants to pay a flight to Affrica? [10:26] I mean kongo-ubuntu LoCo team [10:26] there isn't any yet [10:26] I think [10:26] are you there btw? [10:26] start one :) [10:27] I think the nice thing with ubuntu is that it encourages decentralization [10:27] janimo: no I am in one of the richest countries of the world :D [10:27] as opposed to waiting for the certified specialist from the 'first world' [10:27] janimo: we throw pc's away, people are using in affrica [10:28] chances are that those who install a lab of 20 PCs in kongo will know enough to at least ask for help online :) [10:28] janimo: I am a student in CH, so couldn't even go to kongo... [10:28] great thing [10:28] janimo: how should one get online? [10:28] well, why don;t you send down some infrastrcuture too ;) ? [10:28] ok I see your point [10:29] they often dont even hav power down there [10:29] but I though foundations generally take some knowhow with them don;t just pack PCs along with fridges and TVs and send them away [10:29] let alone phone lines [10:29] janimo: as I said I am working with www.revamp-it.ch and they are doing exactly this [10:29] looking at it [10:29] ogra: but they will soon have wimax :P [10:30] powered by intel [10:30] there is a very cool project of a guy driving around with a moped and collecting emails from people without connection... [10:30] cool [10:30] with a laptop? [10:30] he then sends the ails from home to the et, collects the answers and transports hem by moped to the people again [10:31] yup [10:31] cool, [10:31] you can hand him your usbstick and he carries your mail to the web [10:31] hello Sir. bzr pull, kthxby [10:31] ogra: what about edubuntu for older students? [10:31] a similar project is there with someone driving around with a CD writer [10:32] this is a brilliant idea... [10:32] lucasvo, for now we'll only have 3 diffrent themes ... [10:32] ogra: I have to note that [10:32] for three different ages [10:32] ogra: I will talk about that with revamp-it [10:32] ogra: is it already working in dapper? [10:33] but the plan is to make menu profiles later that a) respect the theme/ages selection and b) are task driven ... [10:33] nope [10:33] thats not for dapper [10:33] dapper will only have the three themes as a base for the other stuff [10:33] night guys [10:33] night janimo === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has left #edubuntu [] [10:35] ogra: so, I can't speed it somehow up? [10:35] is there any todo list? [10:36] there is the list in the meeting notes from the edubuntu roadmap meeting we had in montreal [10:36] ogra: is it in the wiki? === ogra__ [n=ogra@p5089F9F2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu === loogaroo [n=manuel@u-124-094.adsl.univie.ac.at] has joined #edubuntu === claude [n=claude@64.118.62.81.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #edubuntu [10:56] hi claude === Pygi [n=mario@83-131-254-177.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu [11:20] Hello, [11:21] francoisb: good night [11:22] I've installed an edubuntu in place of an ubuntu to have an ltsp server [11:22] I kept my home partition [11:23] Everything seems fine but it's impossible to login on the TX [11:23] did you read http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuInstallNotes ? === Lord_Athur [n=alejandr@pc-30-37-214-201.cm.vtr.net] has joined #edubuntu [11:24] I don't know* [11:26] Ok I've read it [11:26] are the clients booting fine ? [11:26] Yes until the login screen [11:27] but read-only errors are reported [11:27] thats normal ... [11:28] one in /network/run/ifstate [11:28] its some cosmetic stuff that will go away in the next release [11:28] dont worry about it, its all fiune if you get to the login screen... [11:28] but check /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts on the server [11:28] it should contain a host key and the right ip address [11:29] if thats not the case, run sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys [11:29] make sure sshd is running on the server if you try to log in ... [11:29] I try [11:30] and indeed the user must exist on the server .... [11:32] There is some 192.168.0.1 but I swaped the server to 10.0.0.2 [11:32] ah, then run the command i gave you above [11:33] and make sure 10.0.0.2 shows up in the file with a key assigned [11:33] Thank you, I did'nt knows if this command was availaible now [11:34] the command is always available as long as edubuntu-server is installed (the default) [11:35] It's updated [11:35] great [11:35] now try to boot the client and try to log in again [11:36] I'ts fine ! [11:36] great :) [11:37] Now can demontrate how to use old PC's (we have some in Franbce too) [11:38] they are everywhere in the world ;) [11:38] I would be glad to participate somehow (french translation of Wiki?) [11:39] sure [11:39] if you have time, come to the weekly meeting tomorrow [11:40] its at 13:00 european time every wednesday [11:40] in #ubuntu-meeting [11:40] I have school then, but I think I will just log it :D [11:40] On Xchat? [11:40] Ok, I'll try [11:40] great :) [11:41] lucasvo, its logged on http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/ as this channel is too ...
