| Kamping_Kaiser | hm. has anyone else come accross this? install edubuntu -> open synaptic -> click "remove" on cdrom -> click "add" -> ok on next option (main+restricted only) -> edit it. it now is "sections: universe main restricted" | 02:51 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | I've had this happen on 2 boxes | 02:51 |
| ogra | whats the "edit it" part about ... what did you edit ? | 02:52 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ogra: you select a repository line to edit, then click edit, and the "edit repository" box that pops up has universe in the "sections" line | 02:54 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | security updates did the same thing, but updates didnt | 02:54 |
| ogra | thats dapper ? | 02:54 |
| ogra | if so, file a bug on synaptic | 02:54 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | um. Breezy i think | 02:54 |
| ogra | you might file a bug there as well if it doesnt exist yet ... but i doubt it will get fixed in breezy ... | 02:55 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ok. | 02:55 |
| mhz | ogra: could you give me the short version or tell me if it is spectacular? http://ooowiki.de/Writer2MoinMoin | 03:00 |
| ogra | it creates moin source from writer docs | 03:01 |
| ogra | its a macro | 03:01 |
| mhz | yeah, that I know | 03:01 |
| ogra | and it can only handle pngs | 03:01 |
| mhz | but does it mention like "look here" or "excelent output" | 03:02 |
| mhz | or 99% effectivenes | 03:02 |
| ogra | nope | 03:02 |
| ogra | it just explains the basic usage | 03:02 |
| ogra | the four points in the second paragraph explain what doesnt work | 03:03 |
| mhz | okis | 03:03 |
| mhz | ogra: thx | 03:04 |

| sithi | can some body help me please | 04:57 |
| mhz | sithi: shoot your problem and we'll see | 04:58 |
| mhz | sithi: ? | 04:59 |
| sithi | i have ubuntu 5.10 with ltsp | 04:59 |
| mhz | ok | 05:00 |
| sithi | the thin client (diskless) is booting well | 05:00 |
| mhz | ok | 05:00 |
| sithi | i had assined the static ip to the client | 05:00 |
| sithi | i could very this at the time of booting also | 05:00 |
| sithi | but once i logged in to the gnome, for ifconfig command | 05:01 |
| sithi | it is giving me the server's ip address | 05:01 |
| sithi | where did i done the mistake | 05:01 |
| mhz | sithi: The only LTSP I have ever used is Edubuntu's. That means your LTSP config is not similar at all to my ltsp config because we used a very diff approach and structure | 05:02 |
| mhz | sithi: my only advice, and I am very sorry, is you visit #ltsp. They will help lot better than me | 05:03 |
| sithi | ok, thanks | 05:03 |
| mhz | sorry | 05:03 |
| mhz | sithi: ogra is sleeping now and I know he has tried normal LTSP before | 05:04 |

| jsgotangco | ogra: after install it should be runnig already right (the server) | 10:57 |
| ogra | nope ... | 10:57 |
| ogra | see the install notes ;) | 10:58 |
| jsgotangco | gyahhh | 10:58 |
| ogra | especially the LTSPServerSetup | 10:58 |
| jsgotangco | we're sticking with this setup? | 10:59 |
| ogra | yup | 10:59 |
| ogra | for dapper at least | 11:00 |
| ogra | for dapper+1 we'll have a gui for ltsp :) | 11:00 |
| ogra | people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/LTSPManager/ | 11:00 |
| jsgotangco | there's no /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf | 11:01 |
| ogra | oh ? | 11:01 |
| jsgotangco | it didnt install dhcp3-server or any dhcp client it seems | 11:02 |
| jsgotangco | i mean server | 11:02 |
| ogra | ouch | 11:02 |
| ogra | sure you did a default install ? | 11:03 |
| jsgotangco | yup | 11:03 |
| jsgotangco | it did a chroot | 11:03 |
| ogra | hmpf | 11:03 |
| ogra | that might be caused by the oversizedness ... | 11:03 |
| ogra | +damned | 11:04 |
| jsgotangco | ltsp-server is installed | 11:04 |
| jsgotangco | ok i'll install dhcp3 and see | 11:04 |
| ogra | look for ltsp-server-standalone | 11:04 |
| ogra | thats should be there as well | 11:05 |
| jsgotangco | its not installed | 11:05 |
| ogra | (and depends on dhcpd) | 11:05 |
| ogra | aha | 11:05 |
| jsgotangco | ltsp-server is though | 11:05 |
| jsgotangco | should i install it instead? | 11:06 |
| ogra | nope, i'll have to fix the CD ... | 11:08 |
| jsgotangco | ok at least you now | 11:08 |
| === jsgotangco stops test for now | ||

| jsgotangco | ogra: can you change the icons of ubuntu to edubuntu ? (not now) | 11:12 |
| jsgotangco | and System -> About Ubuntu to About Edubuntu | 11:12 |
| jsgotangco | ? | 11:12 |
| ogra | i dont understand the first question ... which icons ? | 11:13 |
| jsgotangco | menu bar uses ubuntu icon | 11:13 |
| ogra | not really an issue ... but if i have time left before art freeze i'll think about it ... | 11:14 |
| ogra | i'm not sure thats prepared to get exchanged by a foreign package ... might need heavy tweaking | 11:14 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm | 11:15 |
| jsgotangco | how about ubuntu-docs? | 11:15 |
| ogra | what shall i do with it ? | 11:18 |
| jsgotangco | replace with ours when its ready? | 11:18 |
| jsgotangco | but that might be asking too much | 11:19 |

| MotherLUG | Evening All :D | 11:20 |
| jsgotangco | hi | 11:20 |
| ogra | would also save plenty of space | 11:23 |
| ogra | but we dont have edubuntu-docs yet | 11:23 |
| ogra | hmm... amd64 is oversized by 13MB | 11:23 |
| ogra | thats hard to free up without dropping something essential | 11:23 |
| ogra | hmm ... i wonder how much harm it does to drop tuxpaint-stamps for amd64 for now ... | 11:24 |
| ogra | its 15MB on the CD | 11:24 |
| jsgotangco | the bitmaps? | 11:25 |
| ogra | tuxpaint-stamps-defaults ... no idea if this are bitmaps ... | 11:25 |
| MotherLUG | ogra, not the tux-paint stamps they are fabulous | 11:25 |
| jsgotangco | its probably the pictures of birds | 11:25 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: i'm pretty worried about the quickguide in our svn, it has images... | 11:26 |
| ogra | but likely ... by the size of it | 11:26 |
| ogra | MotherLUG, i need to free up 13MB on the amd64 CD to make it installable ... give me a guess what else to remove | 11:27 |
| ogra | removing the stamps would also remove tuxpaint ... its a hard dependency ... | 11:28 |
| jsgotangco | xaos is pretty small... | 11:29 |
| jsgotangco | it'll be strange to remove gimp | 11:30 |
| jsgotangco | and yet have gnu paint | 11:30 |
| ogra | nah | 11:31 |
| ogra | nothing is as big | 11:31 |
| jsgotangco | not to mention it'll trash the whole desktop | 11:31 |
| jsgotangco | kdeedu | 11:31 |

| Yagisan | ogra: do we need gcc ? | 11:49 |
| ogra | Yagisan, how big ? | 11:49 |
| MotherLUG | ogra, my first pick to remove would be turtle | 11:50 |
| Yagisan | ogra: haven't really checked yet. just briefly scanning the list while trying to brush my kids teeth | 11:50 |
| ogra | err, sure we need gcc for people that need to compile modem drivers for example | 11:50 |
| ogra | MotherLUG, that wont gain us 13MB :) | 11:51 |
| Yagisan | ogra: um - edubuntu - should work out-of-the-box right ? | 11:51 |
| ogra | probably 130k :) | 11:51 |
| MotherLUG | ogra, yeah I know, I don't know much about the back end stuff | 11:51 |
| ogra | Yagisan, we ship modem driver sources for winmodems | 11:51 |

| === jsgotangco bad thinking | ||
| Yagisan | OOo - still not native ? | 12:04 |
| ogra | nop | 12:06 |
| ogra | i removed tuxpaint .... | 12:06 |
| ogra | (note thats only amd64) | 12:06 |
| Yagisan | that sucks. we could dump ia32libs* if it was | 12:07 |
| ogra | yup | 12:08 |
| ogra | but upstream doesnt move forward it seems ... | 12:08 |
| Yagisan | :( | 12:08 |
| ogra | and doko is to overloaded with gcc and all of python | 12:08 |
| Yagisan | I still can't copy and paste between OOo and native apps | 12:08 |
| ogra | yup | 12:09 |
| === Yagisan is happy. I (finally) got a usb stick today - 1GB | ||
| Yagisan | ogra: what was the last thing added before amd64 went oversize ? | 12:13 |
| ogra | nothing | 12:18 |
| ogra | the packages grew | 12:18 |
| MotherLUG | ogra, can I still pull tux-paint from the repositories? | 12:22 |
| ogra | MotherLUG, sure | 12:23 |
| ogra | its just not installed by default on amd64 installs ... | 12:23 |
| MotherLUG | ogra, wonderful, I must say my lids and I love it, and I have 64 | 12:24 |
| MotherLUG | lids= kids | 12:24 |
| ogra | i'll do my best to re-add it ... but currently its the best option to unbreak flight4 | 12:24 |
| MotherLUG | as long as I can still pull it and it works, I'm happy | 12:25 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: let's pull out tuxpaint for now | 12:25 |

| pips1 | ogra, here on irc, you often are asked questions... what is the one piece of documentation that you need to point out the most often ? is it e.g. the thinClientHowto ? | 04:10 |
| ogra | nope | 04:11 |
| pips1 | ? | 04:11 |
| ogra | i dont point the thin client howto here at all | 04:11 |
| pips1 | ah | 04:11 |
| ogra | since it doesnt apply to edubuntu | 04:11 |
| ogra | see topic :) | 04:12 |
| pips1 | :-) | 04:12 |
| ogra | the install notes are the most important doc | 04:12 |
| pips1 | ok, I see, thanks | 04:12 |
| ogra | second most is yagisans etherboot/PXE floppy creation doc | 04:12 |
| ogra | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ebuntu | 04:13 |
| ogra | err | 04:13 |
| ogra | https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuDocumentation/BootingClientsWithoutPxe | 04:13 |

| === pips1 is wondering why there is a thinClientHowto in the wiki if it doesn't apply to edubuntu... | ||
| pips1 | never mind | 04:17 |
| ogra | pips1, because apart from editing the dhcpd.conf everything is done by the installer in edubuntu | 04:18 |
| ogra | the howto is for ubuntu ... | 04:18 |
| ogra | where you have to do all these steps manually | 04:18 |
| pips1 | ok, makes sense now | 04:20 |
| pips1 | that howto is definitely geared towards experienced sysadmins, I'd say, judging from the amount of acronyms and geek slang :-) | 04:22 |

| ogra | sadly ... | 04:22 |

| === jsgotangco just started drafting release notes | ||
| ogra | jsgotangco, will still take a while ... i just discovered a bug that makes a rebuild for ubuntu and all drivatives necessary | 07:16 |
| ogra | with new testing accordingly | 07:17 |
| ogra | seems Kamion made a tapo or something in the cd build script | 07:17 |
| ogra | *typo | 07:17 |
| jsgotangco | argghh | 07:17 |
| jsgotangco | that's why its taking so long??? | 07:17 |
| ogra | at least for me currently rsync doesnt work either, so i cant get the new builds | 07:18 |
| ogra | but its related to ltsp-server-standalone being not installed and /etc/ltsp missing | 07:18 |
| ogra | so in fact you discovered it first :) | 07:19 |
| jsgotangco | ahh | 07:20 |
| jsgotangco | i'll just do the drafts then | 07:20 |
| jsgotangco | i;ve yet to update for ubuntu itself too | 07:20 |
| jsgotangco | but i'll make the most obvious changes | 07:20 |
| jsgotangco | its already 2:30am anyways | 07:20 |
| === sniff [n=sniff@218.25.204.135] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| jsgotangco | good night | 07:27 |
| ogra | night | 07:28 |

| chms | is ltsp (and related things - dhcp, tftp etc) installed with the server install of edubuntu? | 09:33 |
| ogra | nope | 09:35 |
| chms | rats :) thanks | 09:35 |
| ogra | you need a desktop on the server to use the ssh tunnel ... else it wont make sense | 09:38 |
| ogra | so the edubuntu default install is what you want ... | 09:38 |
| ogra | the so called server install is in fact a minimal install ... | 09:38 |
| ogra | see the install notes from the topic | 09:38 |
| chms | I am learning that. I had an email tetate over that issue :) | 09:39 |
| chms | ok | 09:39 |
| chms | I use ltsp, and thought it would save a step | 09:39 |
| ogra | note that we use the new muecow implementation of ltsp ... it doesnt use xdmcp forwarding anymore ... | 09:41 |
| chms | I'll look into that. I use it, I wouldnt say I was an 'expert'. Thanks | 09:41 |
| chms | do you find using a 'heavy' GUI like KDE with ltsp causes performance issues? (I'm looking at Xfce for that reason) | 09:45 |
| ogra | nope, it only eats memory on the server ... no performance issues | 09:48 |
| chms | good to know. perhaps I wont need Xfce then. | 09:48 |

| bob_ | hey again ogra... | 11:00 |
| bob_ | i got a new monitor in, its kinda booting and im getting 'screens found, but none have a usable configuation. driver can't support depth 24' | 11:02 |
| ogra | ah ... | 11:03 |
| bob_ | and 'xauth: error in unlocking authority file /root/.Xauthority' | 11:03 |
| ogra | then you *need* dapper ... breezy doesnt support setting 16bit in ltsp | 11:03 |
| bob_ | it is dapper... | 11:03 |
| ogra | create a /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf file | 11:04 |
| ogra | add the following line: | 11:04 |
| bob_ | is there any way to view all the messages you got at startup? there was another kinda error i thought might be itneresting but i cant remebre the detials and it goes past prety quick | 11:05 |
| ogra | [default] X_COLOR_DEPTH=16 | 11:05 |
| ogra | that should set the clients to 16bit by default | 11:06 |
| bob_ | k | 11:06 |
| bob_ | right it kinda goes 'trying to load pxelinux' and tries a whole bunch before going to default | 11:07 |
| bob_ | is that ok? | 11:07 |
| ogra | looks like a triangle on the screen ? | 11:08 |
| bob_ | yeah | 11:08 |
| ogra | thats the normal PXE protocol | 11:08 |
| bob_ | ok, cool | 11:08 |
| ogra | i just found a heavy bug in ltsp ... that might be your problem ... | 11:09 |
| bob_ | oh yeah? 8) | 11:09 |
| ogra | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/dapper-changes/2006-February/006513.html | 11:09 |
| ogra | that prevented ldm from being installed ... without ldm X wont start ... | 11:10 |
| === dsaa|away [n=dsaa@210.213.91.102] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| bob_ | ahh ok.... | 11:11 |
| bob_ | is that coz i installed from a CD? seems like it shouldnt matter... | 11:11 |
| ogra | you can startx manually ... but you dont have a login manager | 11:11 |
| ogra | if there is any package available that provides x-display-manager, it breaks :) | 11:12 |
| bob_ | haha ok! | 11:12 |
| ogra | gdm or kdm or wdm ... | 11:12 |
| bob_ | damn that x-display-manager | 11:12 |
| ogra | heh, yes ... | 11:13 |
| ogra | debian added it .. | 11:13 |
| bob_ | anything i can do about it? | 11:13 |
| ogra | and i missed to see that it would break when i merged their patches | 11:13 |
| bob_ | good to know its notjust me being stupid ;) | 11:13 |
| ogra | sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 apt-get install ldm | 11:13 |
| ogra | if that works ... you have a working client ... | 11:14 |
| bob_ | :D yay! | 11:14 |
| ogra | but with a lot of unused gnome stuff in it :) | 11:14 |
| bob_ | 'already the newest version' | 11:14 |
| bob_ | boo | 11:14 |
| ogra | oh, so that was pulled in already ... lucky you :) | 11:15 |
| bob_ | so its just thsi rouge dhcp server thats the problem now then | 11:15 |
| bob_ | arghhhh | 11:15 |
| ogra | just try the lts.conf | 11:15 |
| ogra | nope, its your graphics card that only supports 16bit ... | 11:15 |
| bob_ | its funny, sometimes i get a kernel panic and sometimes it just frezes at 'loading hardware drivers' | 11:15 |
| bob_ | no i mean that is still an issue... | 11:16 |
| bob_ | is there any way to flush the dhcp and ltsp server cache? i think turning this computer off and on repeatedly is confusing it | 11:16 |
| ogra | nope | 11:17 |
| ogra | no need to | 11:17 |
| bob_ | ok | 11:17 |
| ogra | the cache is bound to the hardware address of your card ... you should get always the same ip for the client | 11:17 |
| bob_ | ah ok | 11:18 |
| bob_ | is there any other reason it'd stop at 'loading hardware drivers'? | 11:19 |
| ogra | you can remove the word splash from /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/pxelinux.cfg/default then you see more ... | 11:20 |
| ogra | it will omit the bootsplash | 11:20 |
| bob_ | ok | 11:22 |
| bob_ | its still having problems even when i disconnect the othre dhcp server | 11:22 |
| mezzapazza | is there some documentation on setting up ltspfs on ubuntu? | 11:22 |
| ogra | nope, use the one from ltsp.org | 11:22 |
| mezzapazza | if i only knew what reffered redhat init scripts usually do :) | 11:23 |
| ogra | ltspfs and ltspfsd are packaged, but you will need to set up the scripts from ltsp.org manually ... | 11:24 |
| mezzapazza | what about dapper init scripts? | 11:24 |
| ogra | ? | 11:24 |
| ogra | for ltspfs ? | 11:25 |
| mezzapazza | yep | 11:25 |
| bob_ | argh, 'depth 16 is not supported through this adapter' | 11:25 |
| ogra | thats evil ... but it doesnt support 24 either ? | 11:25 |
| mezzapazza | i found it packaged in dapper, so i thought there are scripts i could check too | 11:25 |
| bob_ | its a prety good monitor | 11:26 |
| bob_ | what was the command to check? | 11:26 |
| bob_ | what the monitor can do i mean | 11:26 |
| === spacey [n=herman@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | mezzapazza, sorry, no... i packaged it because we wanted to investigate it for inclusion, but all the local device support was deferred to dapper+1, so there is no integration work been done | 11:27 |
| mezzapazza | ogra ok tnx | 11:28 |
| ogra | mezzapazza, be sure it will be my main target in dapper+1 together with a real good sound implementation based on gstreamer ... | 11:29 |
| mezzapazza | ogra looking forward... i'm in a hurry, so i'll have to figure it out myself.. | 11:30 |
| mezzapazza | BTW vim/nvi was missing in dapper release i downloaded last week | 11:30 |
| ogra | it should work as outlined on the ltsp.org wiki ... but you'll need to add it to the startup scripts yourself, sorry | 11:30 |
| ogra | amd64 ? | 11:31 |
| mezzapazza | yes | 11:31 |
| ogra | yup, might be, the CD was oversized for some days ... | 11:31 |
| ogra | should be fixed since today | 11:31 |
| ogra | bob_, its not the monitor ... its the graphics card that cant do 16bit ... | 11:32 |
| ogra | must be a very old model .... | 11:32 |
| ogra | try if it works if you set the value from 16 to 8 | 11:32 |
| ogra | didnt you say mach64 or something ? thats one of the oldest atis around ... | 11:33 |
| bob_ | ah ok | 11:33 |
| bob_ | yeah | 11:33 |
| bob_ | ok | 11:33 |
| bob_ | be surprised if it only supports 8 bit though? | 11:35 |
| ogra | yes, a bit ... | 11:35 |
| ogra | it should be able to do 16 ... | 11:35 |
| ogra | but the error message indicates differently | 11:35 |
| bob_ | k | 11:36 |
| ogra | k ? | 11:37 |
| bob_ | ok, sorry :) | 11:37 |
| ogra | nah, i meant k like in its ok, i see X ? | 11:37 |

| bob___ | whoops lost connection, have you got ay idea why im still getting problems even with the other dhcp server unplugged? might i just need a better network switch? | 11:45 |
| ogra | bob___, not yet ... | 11:45 |
| ogra | might be a dapper bug | 11:45 |
| bob___ | k | 11:46 |
| ogra | i'm currently preparing flight 4 and discover a lot of weird things that didnt show up yet | 11:46 |
| bob___ | is there anything i can do with regard to bug reports? | 11:46 |
| mezzapazza | what would be redhat's rc.localdev on debian? | 11:46 |
| ogra | bob___, file them :) https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+bugs assign them to me and the ltsp package ... | 11:48 |
| ogra | mezzapazza, for the client side i'd just add it to the ltsp-client initscript ... | 11:49 |
| bob___ | ok :) i dont always know whats gone wrong though :) | 11:49 |
| bob___ | i guess i can just describe... | 11:49 |
| bob___ | i mean, i dont know if its me or a bug... | 11:49 |
| bob___ | wow, i have a black x... | 11:53 |
| ogra | yes, just describe is a good start | 11:54 |
| ogra | :) | 11:54 |
| bob___ | a black x and nothing else. i guess this is a start? | 11:54 |
| ogra | bob___, my job as developer is to ask you the right questions in the bug to find out whats wrong and if it is a bug :) | 11:55 |
| ogra | doesnt look like ldm is working, weird | 11:55 |
| bob___ | haha thats good, glad i can be of some help :p | 11:55 |
| bob___ | any ideas? anything i can try rebulding, or something? | 11:58 |
| ogra | would be an option .. | 11:59 |
| ogra | +just dont forget to create the lts.conf | 12:00 |
| ogra | (or make a backup you can copy in place later) | 12:00 |
| bob___ | whats the command? | 12:01 |
| ogra | sudo ltsp-build-client | 12:02 |
| bob___ | hmm ive done that one | 12:02 |
| bob___ | anything else it could be? | 12:02 |
| ogra | you need to wipe the /opt/ltsp/i386 dir first | 12:02 |
| bob___ | ive done that a couple of times already tho | 12:03 |
| bob___ | hmmm | 12:03 |
| bob___ | no way its gonna get corrupted really is there? | 12:03 |
