[08:04] The as mentioned in a previous section, netboot mode speeds up the loading of the initramfs through the size reduction.

[08:07] hang on [08:07] look now [08:08] I made those bullet point to to make it more clear that they are separate items [08:08] it seemed like a run-on sentence before [08:09] sentence fragment.

[12:10] hmm, can anyone point me to a wiki page with notes how to upgrade from edubuntu 5.10 to dapper? (yes, sadly I'm a victim of googlelitis - the inability to find the right pages on google :/) [12:10] DeeJay1, all ubuntu documentation applies here :) [12:11] change all occurences of breezy to dapper in /etc/apt/sources.list and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [12:11] thats all ... [12:12] and hope for the best? ;) [12:12] but be warned, dapper is still in development, you might find bugs nobody knows about yet ;) [12:12] exactly :) === mwest [n=mwest@tsl.uct.ac.za] has joined #edubuntu [12:13] I'm used to find bugs nobody knows about, that's the experience you get when using PLD Linux [12:14] but it's a lot different from Ubuntu and I don't feel at home here sadly :/ [12:15] (the difference between Edubuntu and PLD is that Edubuntu "just works" where you can spend some time setting up a proper working environment in PLD) [12:15] oh, btw, do you use the ltsp server in edubuntu ? [12:15] ogra: I do [12:16] ogra: and apt-get dist-upgrade in the chroot will work ? [12:16] i'd recommend to recreate the client chroot then ... there are changes a normal upgrade cant cover .... [12:16] s/and/an/ [12:16] it would work, but you loose some benefits from additions to the default setup ... [12:17] oh ok === DeeJay1 thinks if there would be a way to teach network setup on a thin client [12:17] creating it from scratch will for example rip out a lot of startup scripts we dont need on the client ... this isnt handled on upgrades [12:18] so you'd loose the speedup gained through this ... [12:19] ok, I'll try to find the manual on the wiki for this... [12:19] sudo rm -r /opt/ltsp/i386 && sudo ltsp-build-client [12:20] if the first command complains about /var/lock /var/run, you should reboot between the two commands ... [12:20] thats all you need ;) [12:21] khym, that looks easy :) [12:21] BTW is there a newer login manager? [12:21] yup [12:21] (not newer, but prettier) === spacey [n=herman@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #edubuntu [12:22] same code, new gui [12:22] in the old one most things weren't working at all [12:23] they were ripped out and made optional now ... until they work fully automatic...

[12:52] (see channel topic for the recent one) [12:52] ogra: I know, but it's worth a try [12:52] :) [12:52] and I can always report some bugs :P [12:53] yay, i'm happy about every bug i get :) [12:55] it's sad that you're not a mono developer, you could fix some bugs I can't cope with === eds0n [n=edson@pc123-89.iu.hio.no] has joined #edubuntu [01:01] hey, I'm running and Ubuntu server with vmware-server to run clients on a Edubuntu server.

[02:13] yup [02:14] oh, BTW will it be possible to run i386 chroots with the amd64 version of Edubuntu dapper? [02:15] yup [02:16] but currently amd64 automatically sets up a amd64 client environment that needs to be wiped first [02:16] (the CD installer that is) [02:17] and i'm not sure if i want to keep the autocreation or not ... [02:17] removing it on amd64 only is a huge amount of extra mainteance [02:17] wouldn't it be possible to let the user decide which type of chroot does he want while installing? [02:18] that would add an extra question to the installer [02:18] which is a big nono in the ubuntu world ... [02:20] oh, I see [02:20] mono isn't shipped by default I suppose? [02:21] nope [02:21] nope [02:21] its not yet decided, it might be that f-spot gets in at some point which would pull in a basic set of mono [02:22] hmmm how big would that be.. [02:22] so the "DeeJay1 writes a graphical installer for ltsp" option is out... [02:22] http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/LTSPManager/ [02:23] DeeJay1, how good are your pygtk skills ? thats exactly what ltsp manager is missing [02:23] but the graphical installer for the base is done correct? [02:23] oh cooollll === jsgotangco will branch this [02:24] ogra: I have absolutely no skills in python [02:24] DeeJay1, i thought about an autodetection on startup, if /opt/ltsp is empty a gui installer is started to create the client chroot [02:25] this is soo cool [02:26] thats dapper+1 [02:26] yeah [02:26] i wasnt allowed such heavy changes this time ... :) [02:26] i would expect that [02:26] but i'll branch nonetheless [02:26] yeah [02:26] late dinner [02:26] ogra: that would be nice, but I think that it would have one drawback - root access, another password window wouldn't look good just after startup [02:26] brb [02:27] ogra: one mustn't have /opt to be world readable (there are some funny guys out there) [02:27] DeeJay1, it would be in your system tools menu and just start with gksudo like every other admin program [02:28] its not a replacement for the routine in the installer... [02:28] ogra: oh a small misunderstanding - with startup I thought - just after the installation [02:29] nah, on i386 we can always assume the user wants a i386 chroot ... [02:29] so the autoinstall will always run there ... [02:30] powerpc as well can only serve powerpc out of the box, so the autoinstall can run there as well by default [02:31] and since there are only amd64 packages on the CD you cant set up i386 on amd64 from a single edubuntu CD [02:33] so the only option is to disable the chroot aotubuilder on amd64 or leave it as it is and require the user to remove it [02:33] (it = the chroot) === DeeJay1 feels that leaving it would result in many "Edubuntu doesn't work on the thin-client" bugs === eds0n [n=edson@pc123-89.iu.hio.no] has joined #edubuntu [02:34] true ... but thats something you can catch eith documentation ...
