This should be interesting. :-) [01:50] LP [01:50] I am betting on fabbione [01:50] bug 47948 [01:50] any takers? === jsgotangco will not touch this bug [01:51] how about eugenia vs. infinity? [01:51] infinity is fierce, but fabbione is harsh [01:51] http://comment.zdnet.co.uk/0,39020505,39271087,00.htm <-- I wonder how we can capitilize on this [01:51] bitter might be a better term for fabbione === bimberi [n=bimberi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.bimberi] has joined #edubuntu === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu === arkan0x [n=arkan0x@201.215.87.19] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth_ [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === Laser_away is now known as LaserJock === Amaranth_ [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === sankarshan [n=sankarsh@nat-pool-bos.redhat.com] has joined #edubuntu === bddebian [n=bdefrees@71.224.172.103] has joined #edubuntu [03:09] Heya [03:09] bddebian: you want to do some python development for edgy and edubuntu?

[03:19] the bit that loads when you pop the live or install cds in [03:19] oh [03:19] ported for Suse I believe, so ithas some blue issues [03:20] you'd think I'd never used Ubuntu before [03:20] hehe [03:20] I only know because I raised some usability issues with it early in the cycle [03:21] gosh, this Viper550 guy is a hoot [03:21] "Great job everyone, even though I don't use Ubuntu, your [03:22] heh [03:22] artwork still looks good on my FC5 system!" [03:22] heh [03:22] its called ego tripping [03:23] I hope I never do that [03:24] please slap me if I do === bddebian slaps LaserJock just for preventative measures.. ;-P [03:26] thanks bddebian, I needed that [03:27] jsgotangco: it is cool that vuntz is going to be there. It would nice if we had a "Mark Summer of Code" for things like this [03:29] it is timely === jsgotangco remembers he has to review specs for SoC === boga [n=chatzill@CPE001346a33469-CM00159a01d7f4.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #edubuntu === boga [n=chatzill@CPE001346a33469-CM00159a01d7f4.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has left #edubuntu [] === anselmolsm [n=anselmol@200-232-236-25.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #edubuntu [04:14] Amaranth: you around?

[04:23] jsgotangco: however, I could only sent it today :( [04:24] no worries [04:24] jsgotangco: it would be ideal if next time, considering we'll work together, we 'release' it same time, same date (already translated) [04:24] yes [04:24] next week ;) [04:24] oh, damn, yes [04:24] next week [04:25] jsgotangco: any ideas/structure you might wanna suggest? [04:25] mhz: i will think it over this weekend [04:26] jsgotangco: will it be possible to include a section "A coffee with Edubuntu" ? [04:26] what would that be about? [04:26] I usually write many stuff while I have coffees :) [04:26] for the newsletter I could focus on Edubuntu things [04:26] of course :) [04:27] ill try to come up with a wiki page tonight [04:27] so that anyone can contribute [04:27] oh, okis [04:27] we'll just have to massage the data [04:27] i think its the best course of action [04:27] wide open indeed [04:28] jsgotangco: do you have rights on the wiki to create NewsletterGroup [04:28] ? [04:29] in other words, can you use ACL? [04:29] is that needed? [04:29] i dont see the need for ACL? [04:30] i mean if we have a newsletter out, we put it in drupal? [04:30] the wiki becomes dumping area [04:30] ? [04:30] I think EdubuntuNewsletterDraft or something would suffice [04:30] yeah [04:31] ooh, i see === DaSkreec1 [n=Me@208.138.25.184] has joined #edubuntu [04:35] Hello === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu [04:40] hi DaSkreec1 [04:40] LaserJock: Hello [04:40] Hows the Dapper day? [04:41] great! [04:42] :-) [04:42] Does https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuLTSPUpgradeNotes apply to all upgrades? [04:42] Since Edubuntu installs LTSP by default? [04:43] DaSkreec1: it would apply to any LTSP setup I would think [04:44] Right so that would apply to all installations of Edubuntu [04:45] well it is for upgrading the LTSP [04:45] not the whole system [04:46] Well won't upgrading the system upgrade LTSP? [04:46] it won't update the client chroot [04:47] so you would upgrade your system and then upgrade/recreate the client chroot for LTSP [04:47] Ah so for a standalone system on a network I can just upgrade? [04:48] sure [04:48] Great :-) === dinda [n=dinda@cpe-72-181-85-40.houston.res.rr.com] has joined #edubuntu === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu === mhz is now known as mhz_off === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === dinda [n=dinda@cpe-72-181-85-40.houston.res.rr.com] has left #edubuntu [] === arkan0x [n=arkan0x@201.215.87.19] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu [06:42] 23:25 < crimsun> hmm, speaking of epiphany, is xulrunner going to be the "engine"?

[06:43] epiphany will remain GTK based, as far as I'm aware. [06:43] DaSkreec1: it's still way before release, afaik [06:44] Thats what I though [06:45] epiphany uses gecko, the rendering engine of ff, but i think using xulrunner will require a re-write of epiphany [06:49] Good night [07:00] i doubt its going to happen soon [07:00] despite the beauty of the current epiphany === HedgeMage [i=HedgeMag@freenode/staff/HedgeMage] has joined #edubuntu [07:05] The party was a success!

I tried and junked it about a dozen times over the years, but the gnome integration is omgponies. [07:12] it took me a few times to really love it [07:12] the gnome integration doesn't sell me since I only use gnome when testing edubuntu stuff so it'll look like the default... I'm really kind of anti-gnome at heart.

[02:49] that would give you a live session where you'd then do a full install [02:50] ok i should put it in when breezy is running [02:50] if you just pop it into your running breezy system you get a dialog that asks if you want to upgrade [02:50] ok [02:50] exactly [02:50] when is ubuntu shiiping dapper ?

[04:10] I'm setting up an Edubuntu network for TEFL International, and I'm having trouble with the server install. [04:10] Anyone have the time to lend a hand? [04:10] jamison, did you follow http://www.edubuntu.org/gettingstarted ? [04:11] sure did. i've tried 2 fresh installs from different ISO burns and downloads. [04:11] gets all the way through the install, but after the reboot it won't display the login screen. [04:12] thats weird, what kind of monitor/graphics card do you have ? and do you hear the drum sound from the login manager after it booted ? [04:13] after the reboot it loads grub (slowly) and does the mounting etc... then the screen goes blank. what is really strange is that if I press the power button, it asks for root pswd to shutdown. [04:13] no errors ? [04:13] not displayed. [04:14] whats the last thing you see on the graphical bootscreen ? [04:15] will check. I found this suggestion on the forums: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf but it couldn't find the .conf [04:15] that doesnt sond like your innstalled edubuntu at all [04:16] rather like you did an expert install or installed the server CD [04:16] s/the server/from the server/ [04:17] the first time i installed the workstation of edubuntu, then the server off a different cd. [04:17] and the workstation install did leave you in that condition as well ? [04:17] just got an overclocking error. really strange. [04:17] that rather sounds like hardware issues [04:18] what kind of system is that ? [04:19] sure does. I'm in Egypt, and all I've seen since I've been here is systems thrown together. [04:19] so whats the HW spec of the server you try to install on [04:20] p3, 200gb western digital HD, 256 ram, network card, etc... [04:21] ok [04:21] and you have the i386 CD i guess (not the amd64 one by accident or something) [04:21] also i assume thats dapper, right [04:22] ? [04:22] it gets all the way to the "Kernel Log" in the graphical boot before it goes blank. [04:22] yeah the 6.06 LTS [04:22] ok [04:23] and its definately an edubuntu CD you used there ? a missing xorg.conf usually cant happen (empty ones could, but not missing ones) [04:24] yup. couldn't even find /etc/x11/ [04:24] that should be /etc/X11 [04:24] i've tried two installs, and the symptoms are the same. [04:24] with a capital X [04:24] i'll check again, but when i did a dir unter /etc neither where there. i'll check now [04:24] well, the workstation install should have picked it up [04:25] jamison: are you sure the installation finished correctly? [04:25] i dont know from what you made the server install though, there is no "server" option on the edubuntu CDs [04:25] yup. it ejected the CD and asked to rebook. [04:26] yeah, but the gettingstarted guide calls it that. i selected teh Install to Hard disk option, where you must supply an IP instead of having it autoconfigured. [04:26] make sure you definately only hit enter on the CD bootscreen, if that still finishes properly and you have the samme symptoms, something is really wrong [04:27] yeah, thats the right one [04:27] (we had a "server" option in breezy that didnt install a gui, so thats why i always point out the "server" stuff) [04:28] sorry, i have to go out for ~1h, i'll be back soon [04:28] you don't think there is another way other than reinstall? should I just hit enter and do the workstation? [04:28] no worries. thanks for the help [04:29] no, if you want a server, just use the "install to harddisk" option [04:29] workstation omits all server bits and you'd need to set up everything manually [04:30] but i see no way how you would end up without X installed if there were no errors during install [04:30] can you upload /var/log/instaler/syslog anywhere so i can have a look at it if i come back ? [04:30] *installer [04:31] (from the broken install that is) [04:31] bbl [04:31] probably no (based on my skills). I'm going to do another install.

[06:23] it just runs by itself when you reboot [06:23] but you'll have to clean up your /etc/network/interfaces [06:23] ok [06:23] because it'll just manage by itself === highvoltage discovers yakuake [06:26] do you use emacs [06:27] nope. i know how save and exit in emacs though :) [06:27] do you use any daily planning app (no evolution doesn't apply) [06:28] does gedit count? :) [06:28] damn automounting option ! [06:28] I mount it manually and no problem [06:28] heh [06:28] highvoltage: planner-el [06:28] i sometimes plan things in plain text in gedit === highvoltage installs it [06:28] then look at the maintainer's page here [06:28] http://sacha.free.net.ph/ [06:29] The following NEW packages will be installed: emacs-wiki emacs21 emacs21-bin-common emacs21-common emacsen-common planner-el xaw3dg [06:29] :) [06:29] emacs-wiki is essential [06:29] well like i said, you need emacs heh [06:29] heh === mhz just does not like automatic stuff, it is to blind [06:32] doing boring repetitive stuff sux though :) === pips1 [n=philipp_@hsz-hgkz.isz.ch] has left #edubuntu [] [06:34] emacs? vim >> emacs ;-) [06:34] nano >> vim >> emacs ;-P === bddebian calls for Editor Jihad!!

[07:14] F12 [07:14] :) [07:14] yeah === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === Rondom [n=Rondom@217.185.75.60] has joined #edubuntu === P3L|C4N0 [n=sopmac@200.106.100.187] has joined #edubuntu === jouni__m [n=jouni@laku34.adsl.netsonic.fi] has joined #edubuntu === anselmolsm [n=anselmol@odie.lab.ic.unicamp.br] has joined #edubuntu [08:06] highvoltage, if you want to discuss xfce inclusion in paris now is the time to create your spec for it (see the ubuntu-devel mail from mdz) [08:08] ogra: i just read his mail [08:08] ogra: i trust your judgement though, do you think it's reasonable to write such a spec? [08:08] ok [08:09] well, if you want to discuss it, you need to write a spec ;) [08:09] i sometimes feel that i'm making too many demands here :) [08:09] ok, i'll write a spec :) [08:10] it would be good if you could determine the additiona size needed for xubuntu-desktop on the CD (note that many packages might already be there) [08:10] we could then have a xfce option in the install menu (in case it fits) === Yagisan [n=jamie@60-240-85-239-nsw-pppoe.tpgi.com.au] has joined #edubuntu [08:11] if i do a clean edubuntu install, and apt-get install the bare xfce desktop, can i use the size of /var/cache/apt/archives? (assuming i did an apt-get clean before the install) [08:12] hmm, that might work, yes [08:13] but to get full functionallity, you will need xubuntu-desktop [08:13] i wouldnt include something that doesnt fully work [08:13] ok, i'll do an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop too, and see how much we need [08:13] i.e. if you use the desktop it shall not behave to different from a default ubuntu [08:13] good point. [08:13] (which xubuntu-desktop guarantees) [08:15] we would probably want a special metapackage xubuntu-ltsp-desktop or something that doesnt depend on the goffice stuff [08:16] i was a bit torn about that for tuxlabs [08:16] the goffice stuff flies on thin clients. and generally works well. [08:16] the problem is that OpenICDL is completely based of OOo [08:17] and eats oour diskspace while we already ship oo.o [08:17] ah yes, that too. hopefully Sun and community will get openoffice better. [08:17] there is no way that i'd include abiword or gnumeric as long as we ship oo.o [08:17] i understand. i'm not against OOo, it's just... well, big and clunky. [08:18] in any case the xubuntu thing depends on diskspace [08:18] re [08:18] which there is a low likelyhood of being, it seems hey? [08:18] lets see [08:19] if we can drop kde and firefox it might be possible [08:19] although, in the slim chance of us having a second cd, xubuntu integration might stand a better chance :) [08:19] highvoltage, re pendrive/ it was easily solved by mounting it manually :) [08:19] we wont have a second CD [08:19] highvoltage, thx for the tip [08:19] mhz: heh. so you hate auto stuff even more now? [08:19] ogra: should i delete the spec then? [08:19] highvoltage, yeah, it si soooooo not user friendly :D [08:19] apart from the possibility to have an additional language CD [08:20] how much space does the additional languages use? [08:20] highvoltage, are you discussin about a light edubuntu? [08:20] yes [08:20] mhz: among other things, yes [08:20] highvoltage, http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/langpacks/langpacksize.txt === highvoltage looks [08:21] G means gnome langpacks, K means KDE [08:21] wow, i didn't realise it was that big [08:21] yep [08:22] look at the difference between G and K :) [08:22] highvoltage, i am using xubuntu-desktop on top of gnome, as a default option. [08:22] if we cant drop kdeedu, i will have to make langpack-kdeedu-$(LANG) packages i guess [08:22] and for sure, it would be lovely for many users to have that option in shipped CD [08:23] mhz, thats not the question :) [08:23] heh [08:23] ogra, which is then? what to take out? [08:23] that and "will it even fit and not hinder us in shipping other stuff" [08:24] ogra, oh, i see now [08:24] thx for clarifyinng it out [08:24] ogra, what's the main reason to stick with gnome, is it because that's what edubuntu is decided on, or is it to keep it ubuntu-like? would it be plausable to drop gnome some time in the future in favour of xfce? [08:24] xfce isnt really a priority for being an educational distro [08:24] or might it be easier to add the edu tools to Xubuntu? :) === neurogeek [n=neurogee@201.211.8.204] has joined #edubuntu [08:25] true... haven't though of it that way. [08:25] gnome is our default, i have the whole team available to help with bugs and tweaks i do [08:26] as long as i have a say i wont vote for dropping gnome, simply out of manpower reasons [08:26] ok [08:26] it's a very good reason. [08:26] additionally we can easily rely on the ubuntu documentation [08:27] i'm not necassarily pesting you, it's great to get these answers from you, it means I know what to say when users ask me :) === highvoltage copies and pastes this conversation for future reference [08:27] and dont forget that we will not always stay a ltsp distro [08:27] there will be bigger setups where ltsp is only one of the options [08:28] i understand. [08:28] i.e. if you set up a whole school, you will want workstations etc [08:28] i've never been a big fan of ltsp, per say. [08:28] i believe that diskless is good, but not doing *everything* on one server [08:28] the workstations must so some work too. [08:28] these workstations will be managed by tools written in ubuntu, not in edubuntu [08:29] these tools will be written in and for a gnome environment [08:29] oh, btw, damned [08:29] ok [08:29] i'm pretty sure we cant ship gnome and xubuntu alongside [08:29] highvoltage: well, if you only use 1 server, you've not implemented it right [08:30] oh, and morning all [08:30] xubuntu rebuilds a lot of gnome packages without gnome support, that will break [08:30] Yagisan: the vast majority of ltsp labs have a single server :( [08:30] mostly from a cost perspective. [08:31] there's often another server for mail/web stuff. but not for applications. [08:31] highvoltage, make sure to talk to janimo about the above and note a solution (if there is one) in the spec draft [08:32] ogra: ok === pygi [n=pygi@83-131-238-239.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu [08:32] highvoltage: that's a shame. I'd never spec one like that for a client. [08:32] ogra: i've installed gnome and xfce along side [08:33] what other specs do we want (or can we achieve in 4 months) [08:33] ? [08:33] and xubuntu-system-tools as well as gnome-system-tools run fine [08:33] what do we expect to break? [08:33] ok [08:33] that would be one area [08:33] ogra: have you logged fully-automatic-swap-server? [08:33] alsoi what does xubuntu use for automounting ? [08:33] yes, thats on my list in any case [08:33] as local devices and ltsp manager [08:34] i suspect LAMS is too premature? [08:34] also usergroup driven menu profiles [08:34] LAMS has still a java problem [08:34] (we cant ship non free java) [08:35] guest user on demand would be nice, although security team won't like it [08:35] what about thick clients (netbooted workstations) ? [08:35] for example, there's a button 'guest' on the gdm screen, and if you click on it, it creates a limited, guest user that will be deleted after log out. [08:36] hmmm... i think i might have written a spec for diskless fat clients already === highvoltage checks [08:36] you can write aq spec and invite the security team to your BOFs to get it done *right* ;) [08:36] ogra, and if edubuntu-light had xfce as option, but including/using gnome dependencies... would that still mean lighter performance than plain gnome install? [08:36] ogra: yes, i'll write a spec for that then [08:36] in fact thats the reason we meet, get the right people in and you wil have a proper solution [08:36] even if its evil, we should implement it the right way ;) [08:37] yep, we have to make the most of it. [08:37] yeah, we have the best excorcists available :) [08:37] mhz, i guess so, you'll need more mem for the additional gnome libs [08:37] ogra, thx [08:37] ogra: here it is, a very vague draft: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/ltsp-fat-clients [08:38] ogra: i still need to read through all of sabdfl's docs on good specs [08:38] i'll do that tomorrow morning and make all my specs nice [08:38] highvoltage, in your labs, do you have enough hardware for diff kind of performance tests? [08:38] take your time you have until the 18th [08:39] highvoltage, thats a local apps spec [08:39] ogra: if i can give you advice... i don't think it's ever a good idea to tell me 'take your time' :) [08:39] hehehe [08:39] make a bit more clear that you mean to run the whole desktop in the ltsp chroot [08:40] ok [08:40] yeah, it is incredible how relaxing is for me that "take your time" expression. It would gimme a chance to just append an item to the end of my ToDo :D [08:40] highvoltage, well, i ve told you the deadline alongside ;) [08:41] mhz: that's what i tend to do. it's not that i'm lazy, it's just that i tend to have many things that 'needed to be done yesterday', and if someone says 'nah, it's not urgent', i tend ot think, ok, i have lots of time for that. and then a day before the deadline, i realise i haven't started yet. [08:41] but luckily i work well under pressure :) [08:45] highvoltage, I used to think I worked good under pressure until one day I could not even sit at the computer or even walk, even after I thought I was conciously deciding to sit down or walk, but stress was hidden somewhere giving orders I did not know :) [08:45] then, I realized, the only way I could work fine under pressure was doing some sport [08:46] or having some hours off, totaly off [08:46] my 2 cents :D [08:50] mhz: i was there too at one stage. [08:51] just dont forget it happens one way or another :) [08:51] mhz: in 2001, i worked in a computer shop. two days before pay day, i threw a hissy fit and said i'd rather clean dirty toilets for a living than work with computers again [08:51] lol [08:51] mhz: and i left without ever going back. i told them they can stuff it [09:08] ogra: remember that gtk bug i filed for edubuntu? i'm getting the same on my laptop with the normal ubuntu theme. perhaps i have some very strange, yet subtle hardware problem. or perhaps it's just something I do that causes it. [09:11] highvoltage, what is the bug? [09:20] Burgwork: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/edubuntu-artwork/+bug/47336 [09:23] highvoltage, might that be a video driver issue? [09:23] can you get sladen to look at it? [09:24] Burgwork: i just re-installed this laptop tonight [09:24] Burgwork: previously it was with a clean edubuntu install :/ [09:25] but i'll see if sladen can give some feedback.
