iGotNoTimeIn my SIP softphone and in Skype both it will not allow me to change the sound device01:27
iGotNoTimeit is greyed out and unclickable01:27
iGotNoTimeyet in the sound devices settings such as my mixer it shows and is working and adjustable01:28
iGotNoTimehow do I enable the device across the whole box?01:28

lnsI can't get the "switch user" feature in Dapper to work at all, it either kicks me back to the desktop or says "you must be logged into the console" msg. I would think that this is a feature that might not be a good idea for an LTSP install anyway, I wouldn't want 2-4 sessions going on each client01:48
Burgworklns, good point. switch user also requires gdm, which edubuntu doesn't use on clients01:50
Burgworklns, please file a bug01:50
lnsurl me ;)01:50
lnsi can't find it :(01:50
Burgworklaunchpad.net/distros/edubuntu/+filebug01:50
lnsthx01:50
Burgworkmake that /ubuntu/+filebug01:51
lnsahh ok01:51
lnsalso, for edubuntu/ltsp specifically I would recommend against the shading when you select log out, it's very slow and choppy over a 100mbit network01:52
lnsdunno how hard it would be to disable that01:52
Sergi0any of u guys know NX? 01:53
lnsSergi0, i was checking nx out yesterday a little01:53
lnslooks pretty cool, but proprietary01:54
Sergi0its damn fast, im trying one of the testservers, connection is real nice01:54
lnsbut isn't this more like vnc than ltsp? that's what turned me off01:55
lnsyou already have to have an OS to run it01:55
Sergi0hmm i've didnt go that far, just checked the site and run it01:56
iGotNoTimecan anyone help with my sound problem please?02:00
iGotNoTimeMy SIP phone the audio device for both ringing and calls is set to 002:01
Sergi0iGotNoTime u got sound on the headset?02:01
iGotNoTimebut my USB headset is not listed as an option, in fact nothing can even be clicked02:01
iGotNoTimeyes through edubuntu02:01
iGotNoTimebut not with any voice clients02:01
iGotNoTimeeven when it is set to primary sound card02:02
iGotNoTimeit is completely configurable in the sound settings of edubuntu, but not selectable in any apps02:02
Sergi0hmm02:03
Sergi0an in others apps?02:03
iGotNoTimeas in Gizmo, Xten and Skype02:03
iGotNoTimethe option to change device is greyed out02:03

iGotNoTime:)02:04
iGotNoTimethanks anyway :)02:04
lnsiGotNoTime, did you try running these programs as root to eliminate any security restrictions on the sound device?02:05
iGotNoTimenegative good call02:06
iGotNoTimewill try now02:06
iGotNoTimejust sudo start it?02:06
lnssure02:06
lnsas long as you're a sudoer02:06
iGotNoTimethat did it!02:08

lnsiGotNoTime, just please don't use root as a fix02:12
iGotNoTime:D02:12
lnsfix your permissions instead02:12
iGotNoTimeso basically I need to find a way to allow the sound settings to be controlled by my user?02:13
lnsiGotNoTime, try verifying if you are a member of the 'audio' group02:13
iGotNoTimeok thank you again :)02:13
lnsno prob. =) glad i could help02:13
iGotNoTimedoes the "audio group" have a secret name?02:14
iGotNoTimethere is no audio group in my groups list02:14
iGotNoTimecould explain alot about the problem LOL02:14
lns;) maybe02:14
lnslet's check my edubuntu install02:15
iGotNoTimecould it be daemon?02:15
lnsi wouldn't imagine02:15
lnsdo this: cat /etc/group | grep audio02:15
lnsalso, whatever device your usb headset is using02:15
bimberiiGotNoTime: there is an 'audio' group02:15
lnsok02:15
lnswhat's the dev name of your usb headset02:15
=== ealden [n=ealden@203.76.211.214] has joined #edubuntu
iGotNoTimeok found it, didn't see the check all box :P02:16
lnsahh02:16
lnsare you on a thin client doing this?02:16
iGotNoTimeIns negative02:17
iGotNoTimethe dev name I don't know in the GUI it simply says Logitech USB Headset02:17
iGotNoTimeI think they are seperated as DSP and DSP102:18
iGotNoTimeok bad news, it says I AM a member of the audio group02:19
iGotNoTimeso it is a different group that the headset is on maybe?02:19
lnsyou probably need permissions to access the sound device (headset)02:19
lnsfind out what the /dev filename is for it and change permissions to allow your user r/w access to it02:20
lnsthen logout/login02:20
iGotNoTimehow do I find dev filename for the device?02:21
iGotNoTimeand where do those permissions get edited from?02:21
lnsdmesg02:21
lnslook for when you inserted the usb headset02:21
lnsit should show a /dev/*name* assign when you put it in02:22
lnsedit it from the terminal02:22
iGotNoTimeok thanks again for all the help :)02:24

lnsI'm not seeing any detected sound devices available02:26
Sergi0well, i could try help, but ive not setup any thinclient, will try soon 02:28
lnsthx Sergi0 02:28
Sergi0Ins one question for you, a ltsp thin-client, what does the client do exacly? just boot kernel and start X? or does it do a fully linux bootup with all the dev/etc 02:30

LNSAFAIK, thin client steps include: PXE -> DHCP -> TFTP kernel download/exec from server -> Pivot_root -> DHCP (again) -> login manager contacts LTSP server02:34
LNSsorry, before login manager, NFS mounts client filesys02:35

Burgundaviahighvoltage: that was a big loss for Ubuntu08:49
highvoltageBurgundavia: yeah, i think it's a big loss for hp users too08:50
Burgundaviahighvoltage: funny what they said "linspire had good support"08:55
Burgundaviawhich was a slap to Ubuntu'08:56
highvoltageit's been ages since i installed linspire, but last time i did, it wasn't very impressive.08:58
highvoltagepeople tend to say things like "but it's debian based, so you can just apt-get install!"08:58
highvoltagebut the quality of their packages aren't as good as debian or ubuntu's.08:58
highvoltageor at least, that was my impression.08:59
Burgundavialast I used was linspire 5.0 live cd09:00
BurgundaviaI was underwhelmed09:00

Burgundaviahttp://workshop.linspire.com/package-version-policy.html09:01

mhzJaneW: will it? :D01:57
JaneWwhat is that?01:58
mhzhehehe, well, that was part of my answer as well01:58
mhzwhat I saw XGL in action was  something the user could handle to change desktops in 3D and also have several eye-candy effects02:00

mhzMaybe that is a good way to see how much time we need. If it is possible to split everything into hours, we'll know how much we can do a day04:16
spaceywhat did you think of: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToCookEdubuntu/RolesAndResponsibilities04:16
spaceymhz: maybe you have some doc experience to make such a expected hours calculation?04:16
Pygispacey: it's good for now ^_^04:17
spaceywould be a good idea to do that per chapter04:17
Pygimhz: you can't split per hour ... rather chapter, or article04:17
mhzhmmm04:17
mhzbut can we know and estimate how much hours we need in total?04:18
Pygiif more authors work on chapter, then divide per article04:18
Pygimhz: we need a lot of work .... really lot ...04:18
mhzyeah, hence my concern04:18
PygiI would expect everything to be written by, April 2004:18
Pygithen we'll go with more agressive reviews04:19
mhzok, let's say april 15th and have 4 intensive days for corrections04:19
mhzoh04:19
mhzI see04:19
mhz20th + some days04:19
mhzok, so lots of work = X hours ?04:20
mhzaprox.04:20
Pygidepends on number of authors, 10 hours per chapter?04:20
Pygiif reasonable chapter04:20
spaceyan hour estimate per chapter would be good04:21
Pygithat is not needed for now04:22
PygiI believe at least04:22
PygiI'll be doing a rough tech QA when they submit it, and we'll have intensive QA once we hit April, 2004:22
mhzthe way I see it is: 1st, get to know total amount of hours for the whole cookbook / 2nd, make a list of priority chapters and estimate total amount of hours /3rd, massive request for help /4th, set deadline with contributors answering to the requesto for help /5th, designate readers /6th, review all work and make corrections /7th, move on with rest of chapters04:24
mhzobvioulsy, it is key to estimate an average of hours needed per each designated chapter04:25
mhzbecause maybe contributor is perfect for the chapter BUT he can offer less hours than needed04:25

Pygino worries ... that's why he/she can write articles for the chapter04:27
Pygichapters are divided into articles04:27
mhzcool04:29
mhzso each author commits to articles?04:29
Pygiyes, or if he/she is able, they can contribute to entire chapter04:31
Pygibut in ways of articles ;)04:31
Pygispacey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToCookEdubuntu/Deadlines04:31
Pygimhz, you may look as well :P04:32
spaceytechwise first then language wise?04:32
spaceyPygi: chapters dived in articles?04:32
spaceyhow do you picture that?04:32
Pygiwell, let's say we have "Introduction" (but we don't)04:33
Pygithere could be articles "Philosphy" "Why Edubuntu" "etc" "etc"04:33
Pygiand such ;)04:33
Pygispacey: so we want techwise first?04:34
spaceywell i think it makes more sense04:34
PygiI think we should get everything checked for normal english, but ok ^_^04:34
mhzi agree, so far to 100%04:34
spaceysince tech changes, changes text04:34
Pygiyup, true04:34
spaceyand then you introduce new language bugs04:34
spacey:)04:34
mhzexactly04:34
spaceyi think checking for normal english is also a process which should happen constantly04:34
mhz+ techie is faster to write04:34
mhz(less words)04:35
Pygispacey: yes, it will ... but this is a intensive testing period ;)04:35
spaceyyeah ok04:35
Pygispacey: I'll be able to check all tech-wise every time article is submited/changed04:37
spaceyok04:37
=== mhz also prefers techie 1st, then we go from less to more
spaceymhz: you checkt the points up for the meeting on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToCookEdubuntu/ ?04:38
spaceychapters needs some love04:38
mhzyeah, I checked but I am getting ready to leave for my meeting04:38
mhz:(04:39
Pygispacey: ok, changed a few things ... but I lost those good looking mail icons :(04:40
spaceyright04:41
spaceywhat do you mean?:P04:41
Pygiin that maintainers contact ...04:41
spaceyi still see them04:41

spacey:p04:59
spaceyat least i run apache with mod_chroot04:59
Yagisanspacey: on a default ubuntu install, no - its rather good actually. That'w why I also use it04:59
spaceyso that would make it quite difficult04:59
Yagisanyep05:00
spaceyunless you have some good unknown exploits for vsftpd/openssh it will be quite hard05:00

Yagisanhmm, philps head screwdriver ;)05:00
spaceyi like security:D05:01
Yagisanyes, like rsync from you box05:01
spaceyYagisan: you should combine some of your efforts with ubuntu-hardened05:01
spaceyPygi: anything else we need to do before the meeting?05:02
Pygispacey: no, not really ^_^ you can go rest if you want ^_^05:02
spaceyok05:02

spaceyYagisan: does it matter? :P05:03
