JaneWogra: ping08:11
JaneWogra: Edubuntu has been entered for the Stockholm challenge, please take a look at http://www.stockholmchallenge.se/projectdata.asp?id=1&projectid=1044, and let me know if anything needs to be changed08:11
JaneWogra: also note that it asked for MY location so now the project is listed as from Cape Town, SA - should I change that to London or what?08:12
crimsunJaneW:  the Summary, it may be useful to include a short phrase regarding what a "terminal server" is.08:13
crimsunhum, that was supposed to read "In the Summary"08:14
crimsunon second thought, perhaps the Summary just needs to be streamlined to place that reference closer to the "LTSP thin client architecture"08:15
JaneWcrimsun: ok I am open to suggestions, it was a LONG entry form so I am sure my effort can be improved on ;)08:16
crimsunI'm trying to gauge the target audience (well, at least the judges?)08:17
crimsunI think off the bat in the top description it's worthwhile emphasising that it's a "complete single-disc education-focused..."08:19
crimsunThat way it's reinforced in the Summary.08:19
JaneWright08:21
JaneWcrimsun: it's there already "Edubuntu includes more than 16,000 pieces of software, but the core installation fits on a single CD."08:24
crimsunJaneW: right. I was referring to the idea that the top description would be more forceful if it emphasised the single-cd bit08:24
JaneWcrimsun: do you think that really matters in the first sentence?08:30
crimsunJaneW: to be honest, no, it's not absolutely critical, but it's certainly one of Edubuntu's strongest selling points, a single-disc solution08:31
=== writer [n=ivan@194.84.5.222] has joined #edubuntu
=== JaneW will be away for a bit
lucasvocrimsun: it is not only a a single-disc solution, it has also an included Opensource(free) Operating system,08:57

lucasvoogra: what's the topic for edubuntu meeting?10:18
Yagisanlucasvo: how to turn your edubuntu setup into a dvd ripping cluster ;)10:21
lucasvoYagisan: yeah, good idea :D10:22
lucasvoYagisan: are you using it?10:23
Yagisanlucasvo: building it right now10:25
Yagisanlucasvo: I have the LTSP server, and the firewall running, now I'm adding the clients :)10:25
ograJaneW, looks fine to me10:50
JaneWogra: :)10:50
ogralucasvo, we have a fixed agenda .... its always the same10:51
lucasvoogra: ah ok12:10
Yagisanogra: If I add a nfs entry to /etc/fstab in the ltsp chroot, should the client automatically mount it on boot ?12:12
lucasvoYagisan: /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/fstab is the correct file12:13
lucasvoYagisan: theoretically yes12:13
lucasvoI think12:13
ograif you dont put noauto in it, that should work .... 12:13
Yagisanok. this is odd, reading /etc.fstab from the client, shows a different /etc/fstab then the one in the chroot on the server12:15
ograah... yes, wait a sec12:16
ograhave a look at configure_fstab() /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/init.d/ltsp-client-setup12:17
ograadd it there (and provide a clean patch to put "$EXTRADIRS" in there ;) so i can add it ) 12:19
Yagisanbrb - baby calling12:19
Yagisanogra: I suppose I should provide a patch against dappers ltsp package for you12:32
ograyup12:32
Yagisanany issues in backporting dappers ltsp package to breezy ?12:33
=== jinty [n=jinty@205.134.224.215] has joined #edubuntu
ograyes ...12:33
ograthe current one might be fine, but the next upload will have some changes that need dhcpd 3.0.312:34
ograso if you want to manually bakport, use the current one ...12:34
=== aya [n=yann@cav13-3-82-234-224-217.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu
Yagisanogra: so, other then dhcp, no other issues ? if so, it's an easy backport, and as an added bonus, I can test the patch before sending it :)12:35
ograyup, it will also be an easy backport in the future as long as you do it manually ... but we cant put it in breezy-backports12:36
ograsince i'll add a versioned dependency on dhcpd 3.0.312:36
ogra(which is easy to work around locally, but a bad thing in -backports)12:37
Yagisanogra: no worries ogra, that's why I have "deb http://eyagi.bpa.nu/~jamie/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse" in all my sources :)12:37
ograoki12:37
Yagisanfor all my backports, and "ubuntu-can't-ship-it" packages12:38
ograjust be careful to not break others that might use your repo ;)12:38
Yagisanogra: yeah, I've had a few breakages in the past. /me recalls a few packages getting to a -6 version in under an hour from a -112:39
Yagisanogra: ltsp-client-setup can only see what is in the ltsp chroot right ? so no pointing it to the servers /etc for config files12:46

Lord_Athur:S03:25
Yagisanogra: how so ? I'm looking at the /proc/meminfo on a 64MB client with a 64MB video card03:25
ograYagisan, we tested with a 128MB card and main mem set to 48MB (which boots fine with a 32MB card) ...03:26

=== Yagisan spoke to sabdfl about that at UDU

ogralucasvo, yes03:52
lucasvoWell, of course that depends on who you are and what you need it for. If you're interested in Edubuntu then you probably don't have lots and lots of money, and you're probably interested in learning: learning about computers, yes, but also education in general. When answering this question for yourself, here are two things to keep in mind:03:53
Yagisanwoooo hooooo!!03:54
Yagisanworked first time :)03:54
lucasvothis is crap, it should be removed from cookbook, edubuntu is not *only* for people without money!03:54
ograyup03:54
ografully agreed03:54
ograbut it should be pointed ot that it can be helpful to choose edubuntu if you dont have much money03:55
lucasvoyes03:55
lucasvobut this sentence makes me think: Edubuntu is very limited because it is only for poor people and is much worse than Microsoft03:56
ograyup03:56
=== Yagisan sobs
=== Yagisan had the perfect cluster setup, then bang out of memory on the clients
=== Yagisan 's todo list. make drink && make debdiff && harass ogra && beg, borrow or steal some more ram for clients && screenshot ltsp based dvd ripping cluster && brag as I get 2 fps on each box

kjcolelucasvo, I was wrong about the Makefile.  That's not the source of trouble (though it was incorrect).08:14
kjcolelucasvo, Only the first few chapters are completely lore-ified, but the make attempted to compile them all.  So it complained about the ones that aren't ready yet.08:15
lucasvokjcole: as I am not a native english speaker it would probably be better if I lore-ify than writing text08:16

mhzkjcole: any news about if i can help on cookbook?09:04
kjcolemhz, there's been increased demand for participation, and so, I want to encourage Ubuntu/Canonical people to help me get the files up on launchpad.net.09:05
lucasvokjcole: yeah, that would be good09:06
lucasvokjcole: -> join #launchpad09:06
kjcolemhz, right now they live on my desktop machine which I'm using as a small server.  Easy to get the sources but I don't have a secure way for people to merge changes back into it.09:06

lucasvokjcole: we should use launchpad09:06
mhznot even ssh keys + bzr?09:07
kjcolelucasvo, I've veen on #launchpad, but not recently.  Ogra had said that launchpad wasn't ready for that kind of stuff yet...09:07
lucasvokjcole: ok09:08
kjcolemhz, That would work, I just haven't set the machine up that way.  My original plan was to use my machine to learn bzr then move the product out to Launchpad.09:08

=== mhz pours lots of orange juice and garlic onto his eyes for stupid!
lucasvoofficially09:09
lucasvoOnce you enter the details of the RCS  you use for this product series, Launchpad can attempt to import that code and publish it as a Bazaar branch. This lets distributors share code with you more efficiently, and also allows distributed upstream development.09:10
kjcolemhz, well, then you'll be able to help with the low-vision testing... ;-)09:10

lucasvoI don't understand the bzr merging09:13
kjcolelucasvo, If I understood launchpad, it will import svn and csv, converting them to bzr, but it won't import bzr itself.09:13
lucasvoyeah, this is strange09:14
kjcolelucasvo, at least that's what happened when I tried it.09:14
lucasvobut you actually shouldn't need a bzr-server because it is a distributed rc09:14
lucasvo+s09:14
kjcolelucasvo, that's why I've been messing around with bzr on my system.  It is my first RCS, and I had hoped to learn all about push and merge, etc.09:16
=== lululinux [n=chatzill@B2a-CommercialWay-Brooksville-28.ij.net] has joined #edubuntu
kjcolelucasvo, if I set up security right, then yeah, keeping the root on my system works. People tell me that the way to work with bzr is for everyone creates a branch locally, pulls from my tree, alters, commits and then pushes.  And I do the merge on their pushes.  (I think.)09:18
lucasvokjcole: I have access to a server located in germany, I could put it there09:18
kjcolelucasvo, the problem is that I want to set up security correctly.  09:19
kjcolelucasvo, that might be a possibility.  Let me check with Jeff about that, and see what he thinks.09:19

lucasvohm, how many users would wan't r/w access?09:21
lucasvoogra: ping!09:21
kjcolelucasvo, I think launchpad only scans its own stuff for revisions.  There's no indication that it has ever looked at my tree.  And yes, Jeff and I live about 4 miles apart.09:21

mhzkjcole: are you admin of wiki LoCo team?11:10
kjcolemhz, nope.  Just the leader of the DC LoCo.11:11
mhzkjcole: and do you have a LoCo setting per State?11:12
mhzI mean (wiki, irc, ML, etc?)11:12
kjcolemhz, not yet.  (If I understand you correctly.)  I tried negotiating with the powers regarding a consistent name and need to figure out what they want to do.11:14
mhzkjcole: and what do you prefer? splitted IRC, ML, wiki? all together as one big US team?11:15
kjcolemhz, I keep coming back to the idea that "local" means "face-to-face"  I think if you want to reach non-technical people, (teachers, students, community activists, and just average citizens) you don't tell them "Well, if you want help, join this mailing list and get on IRC, then look at every wiki page..."11:17
kjcoleIf you can, you tell them to come to an InstallFest, or a pizza gathering, or something close to them where they can meet people.11:18
mhzkjcole: I agree. My idea is that all regions in Chile (states for you in US) should work coordinated at just one wiki, IRC and ML. And each local activity should be managed by each group of people at that particular region11:18
kjcolemhz, I don't care how it's done as long as it can be easily reached by newcomers.  To me that means either (a) list all contacts, communities, whatever or (b) set up a predictable way to guess what the team closest to a person might be named.11:22
mhzkjcole: i see.11:23
kjcolemhz, I haven't spent as much time working out the details with smurf and others as I should have.11:24

lucasvokjcole: no, I can't update your changes11:29
lucasvo*merge11:30
kjcolelucasvo, don't worry about that.  If you did the "branch" you can work and commit locally, and at some future point, push, then I do the merge on your push.11:30
kjcolelucasvo, at least that is the way that I understand things are supposed to work.11:31
lucasvobut, I need your changes to get it running properly :D11:31
lucasvoand I don't want to do double work11:31
kjcolelucasvo, periodically, you can "pull" to keep up with what is on the "server".11:32
mhzgood point11:32
lucasvokjcole: no I can't 11:32
kjcolelucasvo, or am I misunderstanding you (or misunderstanding bzr)?11:33
mhzkjcole: however, pulling to local is good but he can see he's done something you just did :)11:33
lucasvobecause I made copy of "the server" and then branched11:33
lucasvobranching doesn't work11:33
kjcolelucasvo ???  It seemed to work for us.  Push didn't but both branch and pull did.  (Jeff's been pulling to his laptop every weekend.)11:34
mhzkjcole: what is there was a list of to do's people can 'own' so they work on that part only and then commit it to revision11:36
mhz?11:36

kjcolemhz, this is why we need locos: to guide the lost sheep. ;-)11:40
mhzhehehe11:40
kjcoleogra, people want to help with the cookbook, and if I understood how bzr works, folks can branch, then pull to keep up with what the main branch is, and do local changes and commits til I get the push side going.  Right?11:41
kjcoleogra, and talking on #bzr and #launchpad leads me to believe that day is coming very soon.11:41
ograas i said, do all your merging locally, people have to put up their branche for you to pull and merge them ...11:42
ograyou are maintinaing the master branch and push the merged stuff to your online repo ...11:42

ograit shows you the changes to every single file, where a branch was split out and where it got merged again11:46
kjcoleogra, bzr viz or bzrk viz?11:47
ograbzr viz 11:47
ograeither run it in a branch locally or with an url as option11:47
kjcoleogra, ok. (Again, I read too fast and miss stuff.)11:47
ograbzrk is very helpful to maintain changes and branches ...11:48
ograbzrk == package name, bzr viz == the command to call bzrk11:48
kjcoleogra, Ah.  This has been a very educational three channels I've been watching. (here, #bzr and #launchpad)11:49
kjcoleTime to turn it all into a wiki page somewhere. ;-)11:50
ogralaunchpad will add the option to maintian your online branches to your account ...11:50
