BurgundaviaAmaranth, you there?02:18
Amaranthyep02:18
Amaranthhang on, let me plug in02:18
BurgundaviaAmaranth, I under anselmo chatted with you today. He said there might have been some miscommunicatin02:19
Amaranthapparently02:19
Burgundaviado you understand what he is doing02:19
Amaranthbecause it sounds like his project isn't really needed if i get mine done02:19
Burgundaviagiven, I wrote the original spec...02:19
Amaranthwhere is the spec? the soc website wouldn't let me look at the proposal02:19
BurgundaviaSafetyBoat is more than just proxying02:19
Burgundaviahttp://live.gnome.org/Epiphany/ChildrensBrowser02:20
Burgundaviathat is the original draft02:20
Amaranthah02:21
Burgundaviadoes that make more sense to you now?02:21
Amaranth"The Control panel should control the level of filtering (low, medium, high), as well as specific white and black lists." looks odd, otherwise yeah02:21
Burgundaviathat was just my quick ideas. I never expected to get it picked up02:21
Burgundaviaactual implementation may differ02:22
Amaranthi forgot, i need to ask ogra about my project02:22
AmaranthBurgundavia: I was thinking an epiphany and/or firefox extension that can tell the proxy a site is good or bad would be cool02:23
Burgundaviaan iframe would be better, imho02:23
Burgundaviabecause then people with IE and Safari can control it as well02:23
Burgundaviabut that might be more work02:23
Amaranththat's a bit more complicated, yeah02:23
Amaranthand harder to use02:24
Burgundaviayep02:24
Burgundaviamaybe build your proxy with the ability for someone to plug either in02:24
Amaranthyeah, that's what i need to talk to ogra about02:25
Amaranthmaking my own instead of using willow02:25
Burgundaviawhich changes the spec somewhat02:25
Burgundaviaas you were just going to package and write a gui for willow, no?02:25
Amaranthyeah02:26
Amaranthalthough a part of the packaging would be code review and modifications to make it better for ubuntu02:26
Burgundaviayep02:27
Amaranthand i might be able to do this with an existing proxy + the reverend module for bayesian filtering02:27
Burgundaviacode reuse is always nice02:28
Burgundaviaie, use dansguardian and plugin reverend?02:28
Amaranthmaybe02:28
Amaranthi was looking for a simpler proxy02:28
Amaranth"Before downloading, please read the copyright for DansGuardian 2. DansGuardian is not free for commercial use. DansGuardian may not be used by Military governments such as SPDC in Myanmar (formally known as Burma)."02:30
Amaranththat makes dansguardian worthless02:30
Burgundaviaisn't dg gpl?02:31
Burgundaviathat is garbage. dg is gpl02:32
Amaranthapparently it's GPL + restrictions02:33
Burgundavialicense in CVS says nothing like that02:33
Amaranthi know, only their download page does02:34
Burgundaviathen someone needs to spank them02:35
Amaranthheh02:35
Amaranthall the proxy has to do is HTTP 1.1 and HTTPS, right?02:35
Burgundavia"This page has been personally inspected by RMS (Richard Stallman) himself (Oct 2001). It had his approval and hopefully still does."02:35
Amaranthand HTTP AUTH and such, that's a given02:35
Burgundaviaok, the DG author is nuts02:37
Burgundaviawhat about using squid?02:37
Amaranthwell02:38
Amaranthreverend is python02:38
Amaranthso unless i want to embed python the proxy would have to be too02:38
Amaranthi found a nice list of them02:38
Amaranthi've been looking at some of them02:38
BurgundaviaI love how our company "breaks" his license02:38
Amaranthheh02:39
Burgundaviawe ship DG with every DiscoverStation02:39
Burgundaviawhich we sell for gazillions of dollar02:39
Burgundavias02:39
Amaranthhehe02:40
Amaranthi think mandriva has it in their repos02:40
Burgundaviaso does debian and ubuntu02:41
Amaranthoh?02:41
=== Amaranth never looked before
Amaranththe author of this thing is full of himself02:42
Burgundaviayep02:42
Burgundaviahttp://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/web/dansguardian02:42
Amaranththe LICENSE file says GPL02:43
Burgundaviathat is what I mean02:43
Amaranthbut the source code says otherwise02:43

_Mikael_ok, excellent! :D02:51
Burgundaviaand you can have mutiple users each using a different language, simultaneously02:51
_Mikael_im thinking about a first grade school...02:51

Burgundaviawe do?03:17

highvoltageit's not so much inacuracy that bothers me, that's quite fixable10:26

jsgotangcodoc.ubuntu.com currently has about edubuntu, release notes (ive yet to update it) and ESA10:27
highvoltageand i think it would at least be nice to have one 'summary' doc page, that points to the relevant wiki pages10:27
highvoltagegreat. I'm thinking more in terms of someting like: http://help.ubuntu.com/10:28
highvoltageperhaps we should link to relevant documentation from the "Help & Support" page?10:28
highvoltagei think that will be good10:28
jsgotangcowell those in doc.ubuntu.com will eventually be moved to help10:29
jsgotangcoi will liase with mdke upon release10:29

ograwell done highvoltage :)02:08
lucasvoogra: edubuntu or ubuntu?02:08
ograedubuntu indeed02:09
ograthey dont manage to get themself organized since quite some time and just discovered that the edubuntu-art tea has a clear LP teampage, a very clean wiki presentation etc ...02:10

highvoltageogra: not that we have actually produced usable artwork that actually got into edubuntu :(02:10
ograwell, but the team is well organized ;P02:11
highvoltagehopefull with a bit of armtwisting and some work, the next release will have some more02:11
highvoltagei'm lying02:11
highvoltagelisa's artwork made it into edubuntu! :)02:11
highvoltageand toxictoadz'02:11
ograso add her to the artteam :)02:11
ograwe always had community artwork ... thats more than ubuntu can say02:12

=== highvoltage nods
highvoltageactually, i'm quite impressed with the amount of willing volunteers we have02:12
highvoltageif you look at our launchpad teams, they're all quite big02:12
cbx33I can but ask02:12
highvoltagei just wish i had more time to help co-ordinate them02:12
highvoltagebut thanks to cbx33, that's already been much easier lately02:13
highvoltagea big goal for the next release is to get our testing team super organised02:13
cbx33highvoltage, I'll do what I can02:13
cbx33you guys know that02:13
highvoltage(i mean, well before the next release)02:13
cbx33highvoltage, I'm gonna get right on top of that02:13
highvoltagecool :)02:13
cbx33I was just so super busy with ESA and everything else02:13

lucasvowhen is the translatoin freeeze?02:15
ogra(i wasnt aware of that myself until we had to switch our testing to Testing/Current recently)02:15

cbx33ok ogra I'll scrap what I was doing for that then...no point in doing it twice :p02:15
highvoltagei'll add him to the launchpad team too02:15
ogracbx33, he'll be happy if we do it ourselves, but he needs to be made aware of it (which he wasnt)02:16
cbx33ok sure02:16
=== cbx33 unscraps his mind
ograi'm pretty sure he'll be overworked himself for edgy, note that he is only aboard sinc 4 weeks yet02:17
ograso all we can do ourselves will help reducing his workload02:17
highvoltageogra: are you familiar with LAMS and SIF?02:18
lucasvoLAMS is cool02:18
lucasvoexcept it's java :)02:19
ogranot in detail, i only know some basics about lams02:19
lucasvobut what is SIF?02:19
highvoltagehttp://www.sifinfo.org/02:19
ograbut mark is after including it in edubuntu, so i'll have to :)02:19
highvoltagealso something that sabdfl is likely to fund soon, it will have to be rewritten from scratch though02:19

highvoltagelucasvo: sif02:20
ograi think they already work on getting it working with free java02:20
ogra(lams)02:20
highvoltagelucasvo: i don't think sif actually even works in its current state02:20
highvoltageogra: i'm just building up more motivation for a second cd ;)02:22
ogra:702:22
cbx33highvoltage, check the artwork team...02:22
cbx33right at the top...a new member :p02:22
ograi'm not fond of having a second CD as long as its avoidable ...02:23
lucasvoI think a "server" cd would be quite reasonable02:23
ograshould always be our last resort ... 02:23
ograwe have a server cd02:23
lucasvowith ltsp, schooltool, moodle, lams02:23
lucasvoogra: I mean just a repo without installer02:24
ogramoodle will never ever be on any of our CDs02:24
lucasvowhy?02:24
ograbecause its unsupportable02:24
ograschooltool is some KB big, ltsp as well, whats the purpose of a floppy sized server CD ?02:25
lucasvoogra: and apache? isn't it needed for schooltool?02:25
ogranope02:25
ograschooltool uses parts of zope02:25
ograsuch a CD would probably be 5M in max thats really not worth having to manage, test and maintain it 02:26
ogra(you wouldnt belive how much work that is)02:26
lucasvook02:26
ograthe only usecase i see currently for a second CD is a langpack CD 02:26
ograwhich you could even update in the middle of a release to have more and more recent translations02:27
ograadditionally i think we should have a system for third party people to produce their own add-on CD 02:28
ograbut as long as i can avoid it, i'll not vote for a second official CD02:28
lucasvoogra: isn't jigdo something like this?02:28
ograyes, but its nothing a teacher can use out of the box02:29
ograi'd prefer a LP servvice where you can click together a package selection and have a "build" button at the bottom02:29
ograat the end of the build you get a mail with a download link for an iso02:30
lucasvothat would be coo02:30

blue-froghow do I get another login screen on the ltsp workstation? the white one is nice but no language choice?09:11
ograblue-frog, not implemented yet09:14
blue-frogah09:15
blue-froghow do i make the workstations use a langauge instead of another then?09:16
highvoltageogra: is it possible to login with a passwordless user in LDM (assuming PAM is correctly set up for this)?09:16
ogranope09:16
ogranot yet09:16
ograthats all on the list for edgy (if we even keep ldm)09:16
highvoltageogra: is that a nope to blue-frog, or me?09:16
ograto you09:17
highvoltageogra: are you hinting that gdm might have ssh login capability? that would be rockin'09:17
ograblue-frog, do it in the user session09:17
ograhighvoltage, it already has, was just introduced one or two weeks ago09:17
ograso it was to late for me to even think about it ...09:18
highvoltageoh wow, that's great!09:18
=== highvoltage loves gdm
highvoltagepity they couldn't have done that 6 months ago09:18
ograwell, i'm still pretty sceptical09:18
highvoltageis it still buggy? or are you sceptical that they've actually made it work?09:19
ograunless they solve the language and session selection prob for us i dosnt see any advantage beyond ldm09:19
blue-frogogra need help don't see any menu to change on the fly session language09:19
ogragdm is way bigger than ldm so i'd prefer to keep and enhance it unless gdm gains us anything beyond its functionallity09:20
highvoltageif ldm had slightly better theming, and the session and language buttons, then it would be great09:20
ograyes09:20
ograthemeing will improve 09:21
blue-frogin breezy we used to have session and language buttons, didn't we?09:21
ograsession and language are a ssh probelm ...09:21
ogranope09:21
highvoltageand i'd like passwordless login capability too :)09:21
ograthere was a menu in ldm but that was nonfunctional (and mdz didnt allow me to take it out)09:21
ograhighvoltage, indeed09:21
ograthats on my list already09:21
highvoltagesince it's on your list, may i make another suggestion?09:22
ograsure09:22
highvoltagewhat i've been wanting to hack in gdm for the longest time for tuxlabs, is to create a 'Guest Login' button on the login screen09:22
highvoltagewhich creates a random user and logs you in, and when you log out, the account is deleted09:23
highvoltagesometimes people do weird things in our current guest accounts, and when other people log in later09:23
highvoltagethe panels have been moved around and languages has changed, etc and then the guest user is confused09:23
ograhmm, afaik we'll get an app to reset user accopunts from SoC09:24
=== Yagisan [n=jamie@60-240-71-1-nsw-pppoe.tpgi.com.au] has joined #edubuntu
highvoltagethat we have from K12-LTSP too (the reset accounts script)09:24
highvoltageor does the SoC app have more features?09:24
ograno idea, i just saw it on the proposals page09:25
blue-frogogra ok ty the language stuff works for users to log in with all the same language but then you're telling me that one user ca't decide to have an italian session while the other are in french, correct?09:27
ograyep09:27
ograyou can try setting it via gdm on the server (i never tried that)09:27
ogra(per user)09:27
ograas a workaround09:27
blue-frogwell th's a no for me even though I will have a look... teachers am gonna see soon hopefully won't make it that far09:28
ograi think it writes that stuff into ~/.dmrc, gnome will respect that09:28
blue-frogi'll do it for my personnal knowledge thouhg09:28
=== Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu
ograblue-frog, create a ~/.dmrc for the users and add: 09:31
ogra[Desktop] 09:31
ograSession=default09:32
ograLanguage=it_IT.UTF-809:32
ografor italian for example09:32
ogra(indeed the language pack for that locale must be installed)09:32
blue-frogok ty I have to think about a simple button (K12 is gonna help) for the teacher to push this to pupil's folder09:33
blue-frogI do believe that they all will use the same language per courses but just in case..09:34
ograthe prob is that i cant get the list of supported languages easily from the server *before* the user logged in09:34
ograsame for sessions09:34
blue-frognot a problem09:34
ograit is :)09:34
ograand i'd like to have it solved in edgy09:35
blue-frogI decide what languages are on the server and what languages I put in ~/.dmrc09:35
ograldm aready has the complete code for language and session selection including gui pieces and all09:35
ograits just that i cant get the info what should be in the selection09:35
blue-frogsad09:36
ograyeah09:36
ograi have no idea yet how to check that with only ssh in a non hackish way09:36
cbx33ping highvoltage 09:37
blue-froganyway am just thinking that gcompris language can be changed from within a session so this solves my immediate problem09:37
ogratrue09:37
Yagisanblue-frog: ogras workaround re setting it via gdm didn't work for me.09:38
ograYagisan, you have the necessary language-support-* package installed ? 09:39
blue-frogok ty anyway that would have been to much a hassle for "my" teachers, i would setup ltps server myself from a normal ubuntu to have "normal" gdm login screen..09:39
Yagisanogra: of course.09:41
highvoltagecbx33: you here?09:41

cbx33oh i see09:55
cbx33you're looking at referers09:55
highvoltageyep09:55
highvoltagecbx33: btw, can you do me and mdke a favour on the edubuntu wiki pages when you edit them?09:55
cbx33sure09:56
highvoltagecbx33: could you please add "CategoryDocumentation" to all the edubuntu doc pages?09:56
blue-froghave used lts.conf from /opt/ltsp/usr/.... and used it as it is just adding sound=true to the default server stuff (the second one)09:56
cbx33highvoltage, is this fo the move?09:56
blue-frogogra still a non for gcompris :(09:56
highvoltagecbx33: yes09:56
cbx33cos ogra said he didn't wanna move yet....unless something has changed09:56
ograblue-frog, thats ok, even though you shouldnt use the example file09:56
cbx33I'm in a state of flux09:56
cbx33ogra, what am i doing here?09:57
highvoltageogra: sorry, i think i missed that09:57
ograblue-frog, if you have the system sounds coming out of the client, the prob is in gcompris09:57
highvoltageogra: what's the objection against moving to ubuntu docspace?09:57
cbx33hte line i got was, we will move when the docs are not WIP09:58
blue-frogyes i thought so indeed09:58
ograhighvoltage, hmm, we talked several times about it09:58
cbx33i think it's in the meeting minutes :p09:58
ograhighvoltage, editability09:58
cbx33brb09:58
highvoltagei thought the new wiki will be editable too?09:58
=== highvoltage asks mdke
ograhighvoltage, but Burgundavia told me they will still be editable through the new wiki09:59
ograi just dont understand the purpose of the edubuntu wiki then 09:59
highvoltageogra: sorry, but i'm having trouble understanding you :(09:59
highvoltageogra: your main objection is editibility, but it will be editible?09:59
ograhighvoltage, initially it sounded like they want everything on help.ubuntu.com09:59
highvoltageah, i see what you mean.10:00
ograwhich would have meaned that people can only change stuff to SVN10:00
highvoltageyuck10:00
ograso i objected heavily10:00
ograbut they want to open another *sigh* wiki where they pull the doc stuff from 10:00
highvoltagemdke confirmed the new docspace will be in an editible wiki10:00
ograbut then i dont understand why we should still have the edubuntu wiki10:01
highvoltageyeah. a doc-specific wiki, it seems10:01
highvoltageit is a bit strange, i must admit10:01
ograand since many of our docs are still in flux i'm not happy about the ide to move them10:01
ograso i'd like to keep the stuff where it is for now10:01
=== Yagisan could care less about the wikis now, after bad experiences
ograwe can still move10:01
highvoltagethe problem i can see with leaving them is, that they're going to be the only 'documentation' left on the wiki, since pretty much everything else is going to move10:02
ograwell, what will be left then ? 10:02
cbx33exactly10:02
ograsome laptop testing pages 10:02
highvoltageogra: old specificatoins and user pages :)10:02
highvoltage(according to mdke)10:02
ograand ugly tabled pages and lists where people coordinated work through the wiki10:03
highvoltageyep10:03
ograadditionally it fregments everything10:03
ograi'm not happy about it10:03
highvoltageabsolutely10:03
highvoltagethat's the biggest bad thing about it10:03
highvoltagewhich is why i want all our stable documentation in the website, so that a user knows he can search there and find what he wants10:03
highvoltageinstead of having to search through three different sites10:04
ograyep10:04
ograbut we have a *lot* of unfinished stuff 10:04
highvoltageyeah. i feel better about documentation in this release than the last one though.10:04
cbx33so what do we do10:05
ograyep thats true you guys improved it a lot10:05
ogranot to say you all ROCK :)10:05
cbx33so we don;t rock ?? :(10:05
cbx33hehe10:05
=== cbx33 pokes ogra with a stick
highvoltagecbx33: well, perhaps just not yet ;)10:05
ograyou do10:06
=== cbx33 works on his rocking skills
=== highvoltage puts on new red hot chilli peppers cd
=== ogra pokes his english grammar regions of his brain
cbx33highvoltage, oooooh10:06
Burgundaviahighvoltage, this new wiki will have the same editing rules as the current one, it will just be exclusively about docs10:06
=== Yagisan rolls a new software release, and .debs before gentoo
cbx33Burgundavia, who's going to police this.....10:06
=== cbx33 checks the edubuntu wiki front page
Burgundaviacbx33, the doc team10:07
cbx33hehe10:07
ograBurgundavia, and how do you avoind that people still write docs on the old wiki ? 10:07
Burgundaviaogra, we LART them and then move the docs over10:07
=== cbx33 I suppose I'll have to alert them
highvoltageBurgundavia: how will users know where to search for docs, and how will they do it. will the search button on the main wiki search through doc pages too?10:07
cbx33all good points10:07
Burgundaviahighvoltage, no, but it will be very clear there are no end user docs on the main wiki10:08
=== cbx33 wonders if we need to make an official meeting?
cbx33to discuss doc transition?10:08
highvoltagecbx33: as soon as you call it an official meeting, then it lasts too long and no conclusions are reached ;)10:08
Burgundaviahighvoltage, why do the edubuntu people not simply move everything to drupal?10:08
cbx33but we get to write about the pointlessness in minutes :p10:08
cbx33Burgundavia, I thought of that10:09
highvoltageBurgundavia: we'll be doing that for the stable docs10:09
cbx33but then10:09
cbx33there is the editability issue10:09
highvoltageBurgundavia: mdke wants us to have everythin in the move too10:09
highvoltageBurgundavia: but that causes duplication and more maintenance10:09
Burgundaviahow the edubuntu team wants to solve the duplication issue is really up to you guys10:09
BurgundaviaI favour getting off the wiki entirely, if you are putting stable docs somewhere else10:10
highvoltageBurgundavia: so the unstable docs can move over, ogra had some objections previously regarding editibility, but since the new wiki will be editible, ogra is fine with the move10:10
blue-frogto change subject very quickly. Does any of you have a webcam which works with dapper? if yes please give me it's reference.10:10
highvoltageBurgundavia: so unfinished docs move along with CategoryDocumentation, and then later on we'll move it off there (if necassary)10:10
cbx33to where ?10:10
=== cbx33 is getting in a spin
Burgundaviasounds good10:11
highvoltagecbx33: to drupal10:11
cbx33ahh right10:11
cbx33what we need is an svn drupal plugin10:11
cbx33so that the svn docs can stay up to date ;)10:11
cbx33and still be upto date on the site10:11
cbx33i suppose there shouldn;t be a lot of changes though10:11
cbx33however we will need somene to be in charge of drupal doc updates so they don't get lost10:12
cbx33imho10:12
highvoltagestable docs will really just need to change with new releases10:12
cbx33ok10:12
highvoltagecbx33: i think that would be jsgAWAY for now. but can change later on.10:13
cbx33ok np10:13

thom_Burgundavia: where can i find out about these new tools?10:34
Burgundaviathom_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AnselmoApplicationSoC2006 <-- this is a new browser for child-safe surfing10:34
ograthom_, currently you have only the options of squidguard and dansguardian10:35
Burgundaviathe other piece is going to be a content filter that the above will plug into10:35
thom_ok, i have heard of the latter10:35
Burgundaviaogra, the dans guardian developer is mad10:35
ograthom_, but for edgy we have someone working on a easy solution for content filtering10:35
ograBurgundavia, dansguardian is mad10:35
Burgundaviaogra, tools follows developer, no?10:36
thom_ok, im also a teacher, will be for 5th grade again maybe, thanks10:36
Burgundaviathom_, dansguardian is CIPA compliant10:36
ograBurgundavia, hmm, so lets see how insane amaranth is :)10:36
=== Burgundavia hates CIPA with a passion
Burgundaviaheh10:37

ograthats what we'll get (hopefully) with a nice gtk and web gui for management10:38
thom_great, im going to look into all of this10:38
Burgundaviaogra, has Amaranth talked to you about the issue he has had with willow?10:38
ograBurgundavia, not at all :) they will get stable software even with stuff in -updates and -security :)10:38
ograBurgundavia, he didnt talk to me at all yet10:39
Burgundaviaogra, basically Willow is a mess10:39
ograand i'm very short of time until thursday10:39
Burgundavialicense is a mess, code is a mess, etc.10:39
ograwell10:39
ograi'm not opposed if he starts a rewrite, not even if it goes beyond SoC10:40
Burgundaviathat is what he was thinking10:40
ograas long as he delivers good work in the SoC time i wont step in the way10:40
Burgundaviabasically the license is the big issue, because if you read strictly, only one file is under the gpl, the others are not clear10:40
ograand if you dont read strictly ? 10:40
Burgundaviastill pretty unclear10:41
Burgundaviahe ships the gpl but doesn't say what it applies to10:41
Burgundavias/he/the willow developer10:41
ograyep10:41
thom_i saw pclinuxos has a child safe version, but its not gpl either10:41
Burgundaviaplus Amaranth says the code is a mess10:41
Burgundaviahe pinged the author but has not heard back (as of a few days ago)10:42
ograthom_, if we want to ship it on the CD it must be easily maintainable (which excludes dansguardian and squidguard) and free indeed10:42
thom_oh.10:42
ograBurgundavia, ok, i'll jump in on that after friday10:42
Burgundaviasounds good10:42
BurgundaviaAmaranth is quite keen to chat with you about it10:43

divansantanaHello Everyone!!11:11

Burgundavia'ello divansantana 11:12
divansantanaWith Edubuntu 5.10 can you dist-upgrade to Edubuntu Dapper without breaking ltsp?11:12
blue-frogty11:12
ogradivansantana, yes, but i'd suggest recreating the ltsp chroot11:12
divansantanaHi Ogra! :)11:13
divansantanaHow do I do that?11:13
ogradivansantana, wiki.ubuntu.com/EdubuntuLTSPUpgradeNotes11:13
ogra;)11:13
divansantanaltsp-build-client ?11:13
ograyep, see the wikipage11:13
divansantanawow! Kewl, thanks, will check it out.11:13
ograif you just upgrade you'll miss some speedup patches that can only apply during client chroot buildtime11:14
divansantanaThat wiki should tell me everything?11:14
divansantanaCause I would like sounds and local devices,&speedup to work hopefully11:14
divansantanaLTSP really rocks in Kubuntu(thats what im using).11:14
ogradivansantana, for the normal server upgarde just follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades11:15
ograno local devices this release11:15
ograbut sound11:15
divansantanaI have a Big Courier company using it internally on 100 users one server11:15
ograand themed login manager11:15
divansantanaSound, yes? Local devices, no? 11:15
ograyep11:15
divansantanaWill thats better :) Login Manager would be welcomed!11:15
ograwe have the ltspfs and ltspfsd packages in universe11:16
divansantanaThink users are going to be so happy11:16
divansantanawhat is that?11:16
ograso you can pick the scripts from ltsp.org and make it work, but its not included by default yet11:16
ograltspfs is the base of all local device support 11:17
divansantanakewl, will try it, would it cause problems??11:17
divansantanaFree software rocks because users get affected by upgrades in a possitive way frequently!11:17
ograno idea, i have only recently upgraded the packages with the ubuntu fixes from ltsp.org11:17
ograso it might cause probs, not sure11:18
divansantanaThis Muekow project is looking good! Wonder if LTSP is going to move that way...11:18
divansantanaWill give it a try thats a mill!11:18
ograbut its the same version you'd get if you compile the ltsp.org stuff11:18
ogra:)11:18
divansantanaI like Muekow more.11:19
divansantanaKewl keep well! Ciao!11:19
ograyeah, but we're slower implementing stuff11:20
ograciao ! :)11:20
divansantanafor now, i suppose... anyways "see you soon..."11:20
