[07:07] that is the first step [07:07] the issue with wx is that it is not installed by default [07:08] nor is it in "main" which is security supported. Any application that is shipped by default must be in main [07:08] to get into main you need to have your application security checked, as well as any deps [07:08] but don't let that discourage you [07:08] even just having it packaged is great [07:09] is it possible to submit using --disable-shared? then it would only link dynamically to gtk [07:09] I have no idea, you would need to talk to people who actually cut code [07:09] ok, I'll keep working on packaging and report back.. thanks [07:10] wadeb, if you need help with packaging, the people in #ubuntu-motu can help [07:10] they deal with all of "universe", the unsupported free software [07:11] really? great, I'll check over there. === sankarshan [n=sankarsh@220.227.211.249] has joined #edubuntu === ilba7r [n=ilba7r@d141-64-4.home.cgocable.net] has joined #edubuntu [07:52] !packages === robitaille [n=robitail@d154-5-117-228.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #edubuntu [08:03] is there a link i can find the package list for edubuntu or is it the same as ubuntu? === ilba7r [n=ilba7r@d141-64-4.home.cgocable.net] has left #edubuntu ["Leaving"] [08:38] any edubuntu cookbook cooks around? === blue-frog [n=james@81.56.254.229] has joined #edubuntu [08:45] highvoltage, jsgotangco is around [08:45] highvoltage, long time no see [08:46] well i haven't been involved in the cookbook lately (no idea who's doing who) [08:47] kjcole I know has been doing some work, highvoltage === southfoxargentin [n=fox@200-122-33-232.dsl.prima.net.ar] has joined #edubuntu [08:57] hi Burgundavia.

[06:06] Petaris: if you alien the rpm, it may work - it installs most (but not all) stuff under /opt [06:06] hrm [06:07] Yagisan: I don't have a novell setup ATM to test it on, I needed to blow away my test box to work on something else [06:08] Yagisan: I'll try to setup another one and give it a try [06:09] Yagisan: If it works this could be a very nice selling point for edubuntu [06:09] Petaris: qemu may work, vmware workstation will (30 day free trial, make up you vm's then use the free vmware player to run them) [06:10] Yagisan: I have the full version (paid for) of VMware workstation [06:11] Petaris: It's nice isn't it (for a non-opensource app) 4.5 ? 5.0 or 5.5 ? [06:11] Yagisan: I'll give it a try [06:11] Yagisan: 5.0, and I've used it for a long time [06:11] Petaris: if 5.0, your 5.0 key will work with 5.5 :) free upgrade [06:12] Yagisan: 5.5 has usb issues, or so I've heard [06:12] brb [06:13] Petaris: I tried 5.5 because it was supposed to support 64bit guests, but my 64bit cpu isn't supported :( [06:14] back [06:14] Yagisan: Which cpu?

[10:18] installed 5.1 and all signs indicate network should be working but it's not - ifconfig ok, route ok, lspci ok, dmesg ok, etc. etc. [10:19] and what doesnt work? [10:19] did you give the right IP in the installer ? [10:19] yes IP info is right. Hardware works with Knoppix [10:20] can't ping anything except self [10:22] can you ping to the address you have configured for yourself (not localhost) [10:23] yes, I can ping my own address. Also, resolv.conf is correct. [10:25] I'm suspecting maybe a bad iso image. Is that possible? [10:25] did you use a breezy image? [10:26] ogra_ibook, what do you think about a edubuntu thincliente database? [10:26] sure, why not [10:26] not sure what image. just downloaded edubuntu-5.10-install-i386.iso [10:26] well thats the breezy one [10:27] hm... and you have one card installed on your pc? [10:28] I have 2 NICs, eth0 and eth1. I tried each one with dhcp and static config but neither worked even though all indicators said it should. [10:29] so dhclient wouldnt get anything with either of em... weird, the only thing i then could think off is a faulty netwerk cable... [10:30] I used the same cable with Knoppix and it worked with either card. [10:31] well you could try one reboot, and then see what happens [10:31] and if that doesnt work, try the live cd first... [10:32] believe me I've rebooted many times. But I like your idea about the live CD. I'm going to download it and try it immediately. [10:34] you have to use the normal ubuntu live cd though [10:34] edubuntu hasnt got a live cd yet [10:34] platos, it has a daily-livecd [10:34] ;) i know [10:34] but isnt that still in alpha [10:35] or beta [10:35] which currently culd need some testers, since we're about to make the next development release ready [10:35] hm well i have some time around next week, i'll give it a try then [10:36] its the third milestone release currently [10:36] ogra_ibook: i know i'm using flight cd2 right now, and i have a problem though [10:36] can anyone tell me where I can download this live CD. I don't care if it's beta. At least it's something to try. [10:36] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/releases/dapper/flight-2/ [10:37] use flight-2 that one will at least work :P [10:37] it has lots of bugs but boots :) [10:37] the current daily is nearly flight 3 [10:37] ogra_ibook: when i run wine on my thin-clients the screen is black when i want to start a windows program [10:37] i'm currently doing the test for amd64 [10:37] ogra_ibook: on the server it runs great however [10:38] platos, i guess the video output isnt plain X ... so the forwarding might fail ... [10:38] thanks. talk to you later. === ogra_ibook has no clue about wine [10:38] ogra_ibook: any hacks to this? it worked on breezy... [10:41] platos, on the thin client ? [10:41] yes [10:41] ... i am using version 9.5 now though [10:42] i was using version 9.0 on breezy [10:42] hmm, either a X regression or a wine regression then [10:42] you could try to downgrade (if the dependencys allow) and check if its wine or X this way [10:43] i'll go back to 9.0... i think that one worked [10:44] tell me if you have tested it and it works ... [10:50] lol it works [10:50] i took an old release of wine from the archive.ubuntulinux.com [10:50] hang on i'll get the exact name [10:51] wine_0.0.20050725-0ubuntu1_i386.deb [10:51] platos, 0.9.3 had serious regressions [10:51] thats the package that works on ltsp [10:52] Burgwork: do you have experience with wine? [10:52] platos, some [10:52] Burgwork, I want to use sound in wine [10:52] hmm, should just work for some things [10:53] Burgwork, do you know how? it is on a thin-client, sound already works for gnome [10:53] I don't know what audio backend wine uses. I suspect it tries to talk to /dev/dsp directly [10:54] well i saw that you can basically choose which audio its using [10:54] i'll try some things out [10:56] use esd [10:57] if you want to use it on the thin client === Burgwork steals the words from my mouth [10:57] ok [10:59] argh, i can choose out of alsa,arts,nas,oss,audio io(solaris) and jack [11:01] fc4 appears to havea wine-esd package [11:02] well, apparently wine hasnt got those seperate packages anymore, now you only have to install one package for wine [11:02] gah, you can choose arts but not esd ? [11:02] http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-cvs/2005/08/0069.html [11:03] yes, upstream asked for it [11:04] lol and i've just installed the package that was made on 25-7 [11:05] platos, try the latest from dapper [11:06] already tried that one, that one gives me a black screen whenever i run something on the thin-client [11:07] I would walk my way back through the versions [11:07] and have you reported these bugs upstream? [11:08] lol i've just found out about them [11:08] i'll report them tomorrow [11:09] i gotta finish that server today [11:18] <\sh> platos: what is not working with wine? [11:19] platos, \sh maintains the wine packages in ubuntu currently [11:20] <\sh> sidenote: not maintaining, I'm trying to package them nicely :) scott ritchie maintains the original packages :) [11:20] \sh: i get a black screen when i run a app with wine on a thin client [11:21] \sh: and thats with wine version 9.5 [11:21] <\sh> platos: which windows app? :) [11:21] \sh: lol an installer [11:21] \sh: the dcom98.exe [11:21] \sh: on the server it works however [11:22] \sh: and i downloaded a previous version of wine out of archive.ubuntulinux.com and with that one it works [11:22] \sh: i am currently downloading the cvs and compiling it from that [11:22] <\sh> platos: well, I tested notepad.exe via ssh -X to my amd64 box and a i386 chroot of dapper with wine 0.9.5..and this works.. [11:22] \sh: lol weird [11:22] <\sh> platos: so I think it's more upstream fault..there were other problems with wine 0.9.4 which were solved with 0.9.5 [11:22] <\sh> platos: can I download this dcom98.exe tool somehow? [11:23] http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/thankyou.aspx?familyId=08b1ac1b-7a11-43e8-b59d-0867f9bdda66&displayLang=en&oRef=http%3a%2f%2fwww.microsoft.com%2fcom%2fdefault.mspx [11:24] <\sh> ok...I'll test it here again..and let's see :) [11:24] well on the server it works, but not in a thin-client boot [11:25] platos, 0.9.3 had serious regressions <- 0.9.4 is there also [11:25] i had sound on my breezy laptop [11:25] with windows app in wine [11:25] yeah for me its a lil different... i have to have sound in my ltsp client [11:26] platos, i need that as well [11:26] platos, wine can't output to esd? [11:26] well it can [11:26] but not with the old packaged version [11:26] platos, i just installed the version on winehq.org [11:26] and with the new one i got a black screen [11:26] that package works [11:26] on your thin-client? [11:26] although its an external repo [11:26] didn't try on the thin client yet [11:27] will try that next week [11:27] figured it should work [11:27] yeah it worked on my server as well [11:27] but not on the thin cilent [11:27] spacey, those source packages are the same as the packages in Ubuntu [11:27] *client [11:27] spacey_ki, ^ [11:27] Burgwork, got the binary:P [11:27] Burgwork, same as in dapper maybe [11:28] spacey_ki, yes, in dapper [11:28] but i don't use dapper in production [11:28] the ones in breezy are the same source packages, just old releases of wine [11:28] yeah [11:29] but figured last half year of wine devel was not something to miss [11:29] not really [11:30] <\sh> the wine packages I repackage are the original sources of winehq :) so don't blame me :) === ealden [n=ealden@ipdial-166-146.tri-isys.com] has joined #edubuntu
