thedarkenerHey who was the one that had the IP address problem yesterday that i was trying to help?12:09
mhzheheheheheh12:10
mhzthedarkener: do you use xchat?12:10
mhzhave you enabled logs in Preferences? If so, then grep -B 3 -A 3 -i problem .xchat2/.xchatlogs  12:12
Burgworkogra, gcompris 7.4 is out. We might want to pull this release in, as it has a kiosk mode and a new menu12:12
thedarkenergotcha..thanks =)12:12
thedarkenerwas it you mhz ?12:12
mhzwhere you can change 'problem' for the specific word12:12
mhzthedarkener: nope, not me12:12
Burgworkogra, I will try on my dapper machine with the unofficial packages later this week12:12
mhzBurgwork: great!12:13
mhzgood news12:13
thedarkenerHas anyone had the problem where even if you statically assign IP settings to eth1, whenever you 'ifup eth1' it may say the settings are right but you still have no network connectivity?12:25
thedarkenerand it hangs during ntp sync? this happened to me today and i couldn't even update my edubuntu client tree :(12:26
thedarkenerCan't even ping hosts on the same network12:26
thedarkenerverified network connectivity with another dhcp-enabled computer12:26
thedarkenerbut with dhcp3-client i couldn't get an IP... dhcp server is a windows 2003 server, and i heard that you need to enable 'send host-name' in the dhcp3client.conf file or something like that because of dynamic dns updates requiring hostname to be sent along with the request12:28
thedarkenerbut even statically assigning ip information wouldn't allow network connectivity for some strange reason12:29
mhzhmmm12:29
thedarkenerAND it was working fine in my lab before i brought it onsite12:31

JaneWdon;t be too offended02:19
JaneWpygi: I think we will...02:19
pygiI am not, why would I be? :)02:19
JaneWbut do you agree with my approach?02:20
JaneWpygi: just saying (in case)02:20
pygifine it is, yes :)02:20
pygianyway, the mail I sent has divided parts for me and Herman *and lill' for ogra* to write02:20
pygiif they disagree, they'll say it02:20
pygiand we'll finally do it02:20
pygiJaneW: Altought me and Herman could probably write LTSP part I think ogra is expert on that :)02:22
JaneWpygi: agreed02:22
pygiJaneW: ok,now I'll stop bothering you :)02:22
ograpygi, what exactly do you mean with "Keep LTSP in shape" ?02:23
ograits usually maintenance free apart from upgrades, which you have an extra bulletpoint for02:23
pygiogra: "thats basically explaining the three ltsp administration commands" :)02:24
pygimaybe some other name would be better :-P02:24
ograheh, ok02:24
pygiogra: well, anything else that should be written about LTSP?02:25
ograthere can be more ... like a well quoted lts.conf with explanation of the settings and indeed the commands have options02:25

sbartleylinuxogra, Seveas, ok. so help me understand why I would talk here about Ubuntu related questions and not limit the topic here to edubuntu?04:37
ograbecause this is also the #ubuntu-ltsp channel ;)04:37
sbartleylinuxor is it just because of less traffic here?04:37
sbartleylinuxahhhhh04:37
sbartleylinuxdid not know that.04:37
ograat least you'll finde the most ltsp users here :)04:37
ogra*find04:37
sbartleylinuxcool. learn something every day.;)04:38
ograedubuntu installs ltsp by default, so most edubuntu users are ltsp users ;)04:38
sbartleylinuxk. thx.04:39
sbartleylinuxSo, the debate we are having is around trying to decide if we want to go with the dapper ltsp or do dapper with the ltsp.org setups.  Trying to figure out what might or might not work in the dapper ltsp so we can make an educated decision.04:41
ograthe only thing we dont have by default ltsp.org ltsp has, is the local device support, but i try to get that installable and documented before release04:42
ogra(we'll ship our own LDA implementation in dapper+1, so it wont get into the default install as is)04:42
sbartleylinuxok. great.  our primary need is for audio support and I just need to set expectations with them that it "will/should/might" work by our intended release in August/September.04:43
ograthe advantages of ubuntu ltsp are upgradeability via apt-get, usplash on boot, ssh tunneling04:43
sbartleylinuxcorrect.04:43
sbartleylinuxAnd I love that the speed issues seem to have been resolved.  great work there.04:44
ograelse there are not many differences, we worked on most specifications together with jammcq and the ltsp.org team04:44
ograyes, the bootspeed was very poor in the breezy version04:44
=== Yagisan nods head at that
sbartleylinuxWell, I am working on a Dapper Flight 6 install to an IBM 3U 2X 3.4Xeon w/ 8GB RAM and 420GB RAID 5 for our support team to use.04:46
sbartleylinuxThis is our initial testing in prep for Dapper.04:46
sbartleylinuxSo far so good with the tests.04:47
ogracool :)04:47
sbartleylinuxthx for the info and help.  ttyl04:49

ograwhat bothers me is the "sometimes" in your sentence07:22
juliuxogra, ist my bug report07:24
Yagisanogra: yes, it bothered me too. I rebuilt the ltsp chroot yesterday so I'll see if it is still sometimes07:24
ograi wonder where i catched that desease ... must be a debian bug i pulled in thrugh a merge07:25
juliuxogra, i have boot my thinclient here today 5 times07:25
juliux2 time i get the consolen login07:25

ograconvince the monitor manufacturers to put little batteries in their monitors :)07:30
