BurgundaviaI am pushing the "use as much open source as possible" approarch09:15
BurgundaviaI have tried that colouring book. Not bad but probably not usable on a thin client, due to overhead09:17
highvolt1geit's also very, very pre-release.09:21
highvolt1geprobably not of high enough quality for mass deployment yet09:21
highvolt1ge'use as much oss as possible' is a good approach.09:21
highvolt1gei get scared when people say 'completely OSS', which you see often in underexperienced management.09:22

JaneWBurgundavia: kinda makes sense, but then does ppl scared of the word 'devel' won't be covered09:45
JaneWthose looking for support09:45
Burgundaviaya, but three is pretty bad09:45
JaneWI have a poor guy now who posted a support question which never got answered and posted again and is not terrified he has been banned from the list09:46
JaneWI think some devel lists are VERY STRICT09:46
JaneWalso ogra will be interested in e-devel and e-users but NOT e-educators....09:46
Burgundaviaubuntu-devel is getting stricter09:47
JaneWsure 3 times as much spam for me to filter - that's the last thing I want :P09:47
highvoltageBurgundavia: and people like me are scared of the word 'educators'09:47
highvoltagetwo lists is all we need, nothing more, imho09:47
highvoltageJaneW: most devel lists are very strict, not as leniant as the ubuntu lists09:48
Burgundaviaactually, fedora-devel is more lenient that ubuntu and it hurts fedora09:48
highvoltagewell, fedora is just a general mess-up09:49
highvoltage(but i didn't say that)09:49

highvoltageJaneW: i don't know, i think that's something that requires more thought09:56
highvoltageJaneW: it will be to our benefit to provide a platform for curriculum integration into edubuntu, but i would like to avoid forums if at all possible, they attract all kinds of trouble09:59
highvoltageJaneW: although, many 'educators' prefer forums to mailing lists, but i'm sure we can find some kind of compromise10:00
highvoltageJaneW: drupal has a nice 'books' plugin, which allow people to work collaboratively on... stuff.10:00

spaceyesddsp is a replacement for esd? or just a wrapper?01:36
ograspacey, pong01:36
spaceythere seems to be no documentation for esd at all :P01:36
ograits a wrapper that sets ESPAEKER and LD_PRELOAD01:36
spaceyhttp://www.tux.org/~ricdude/dbdocs/book1.html01:36
ograLD_PRELOAD is the problem, it makes firefox crash ...01:37
spaceyso just call the desired application with esddsp?01:37
spaceyso its userwide01:37
ograi think you can only use it session-wide, yes01:37

spaceyoh wait01:40
spaceyi'll just try it with my own user :P01:40
spaceyogra: but you know how esddsp is suppose to run?01:42
ograyes, as i said, its sets these two variables :) 01:42
ogra less /usr/bin/esddsp01:43
ogra;)01:43
ograits a sheppscript01:43
ogra*shell01:43
spaceywhat i understood of it catched OSS output to esd01:43
spaceybut i guess it can do that because of those two vars then :P01:44
ograhmm, the last line in that script looks like it would be possible to run it for single programs 01:45
spaceyif its a wrapper it would make sense that way01:49
spaceyhmhm /me gonna find a thin client to test01:49
spaceyi was told the default esd needed some patches though, because it didn't capture open64 stuff. Is that something only needed on 64bit? or no idea?01:50
ograthe latter 01:51
spaceyanyway i patched it so i can try later. 01:52

enyciGotNoTime: linuxprinting.org can be very useful/helpful althuogh of course it may not exactly reflect the versions of ghostscript/gimp-print/foomatic/upsys etc. in your version of (ed)(k)ubuntu08:55

HedgeMageiGotNoTime: are you still about?09:46
HedgeMageiGotNoTime: I found a brief reference to the Canon i470d on an archive of the fedora discussion list that suggests you can get *partial* functionality by using the driver for the Canon BJC80009:48
HedgeMageiGotNoTime: I'm not sure how "partial" it is, but it may be better than nothing09:48
