ograLaserJock, mdz didnnt consider it a spec, he wants subspecs for every single task (while i just wanted a final seedlist after the BOF discussion)01:52
LaserJockoh01:53
ograyeah01:53
ogras/final/semi final, modulo development changes indeed/01:54
LaserJockhmm, so a spec for each addition/removal?01:55
ograseems like 01:56
ograthe CD diet has also no priority ...01:56
ograwe can drop develpment completely if it isnt implemented in edgy since we have nop opportunity to make more room, so i had marked it essential initially, but well 01:57
LaserJockdo we really need TB approval for it?01:57
LaserJockI would think you would just redo the seeds ;-)01:58
ograwell, i wanted to have time to review and measure during the BOFs01:58
ograto determine the best for us ...01:58
LaserJockbut can we (EC and anybody else who's in Paris) do it anyway?01:59
ograbut i tend to agree, lets rather drop it and i'll just do the changes, it will be a lot of extra unnecessary paperwork to spec every change01:59

DanielCMaybe someone should do an Edubuntu logo competition. That would be fun.11:27

EmxBAi will organise that, DanielC11:28
DanielCThe OpenOffice schools project once had a mascot competition. That was a lot of fun.11:28
pygiDanielC, we have a  logo :P11:28
DanielCpygi: I said mascot :)11:28
DanielCThe winner was a 16 year old student from Italy who wants to be a graphics designer.11:29
pygiMaybe someone should do an Edubuntu logo competition. That would be fun.11:29
pygiI quote :P11:29
EmxBAare there any similar competitions right now ?11:29

DanielCWe could even have a mascot of the year, so we can have more competitions.11:30
cbx33hehe11:30
cbx33EmxBA: start drawing an Eft :p11:30
cbx33and Edgy Eft :p11:30
DanielCBecause we are dealing with schools, this would be a good way to get kids involved.11:30
DanielCcbx33: Oh! that's an idea!11:31
DanielCA competition for each release.11:31
DanielCFor Dapper we draw a Drake; for Edgy we draw an Eft.11:31
=== DanielC wonders what an eft is.
DanielChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newt11:32
DanielCAn Eft is a young Newt, and a newt is a type of lizzard.11:32
DanielCThis could be a good way to get schools involved. I have a school who would likely be interested. They are primary kids though.11:32

EmxBAok11:36
EmxBAmaybe during summer 11:36
DanielCEmxBA: For Dapper it'd be a Drake and for Edgy it'd be an Eft.11:36

EmxBAcbx33: maybe edubuntu will be open11:37
DanielCEmxBA: A logo competition is not likely to be accepted. They won't want to change the logo. A mascot competition is easier to sell.11:37

pygiogra, because it's supported the best by upstream? :)12:36
bluekujawhich channel?12:36

ograpygi, thats serpentine as well, or gnomebaker or nautilus-cd-burner or k3b :)12:37

pygiogra, I know we can't include it, just wanted to poke randomly because it's my application ^^12:38
ograwe already have full audio burning capability in rhythmbox ...12:38
pygiyup, I know...no worries :)12:38
bluekujaanyway it's an easy process12:38
ograpygi, so package it up and push it to universe ;)12:39

pygiogra, bleh, yes, but that's not in "ship" with edubuntu :)12:39
cbx33ogra: do you have a sec for apython question12:39
cbx33I've been bugging pygi12:39
cbx33i have a filename in a string 12:40
bluekujapygi: what do you want to be fixed more in server ?12:40
ograunless we'll drop nautilus we wont need a separate bunring app :)12:40
cbx33but it has spaces and other chars in it12:40
bluekujapygi: so i can focus on that12:40
pygiogra, and you won't drop nautilus :P12:40
pygibluekuja, well, nothing, as long as it all works :)12:40
pygiand see if domain works12:40

EmxBAor edubuntu-cookbook meeting?12:54
DanielCogra: Cool :)12:54
ograwell, FF will be evil to work around12:54
ograit is much worse than OOo12:54
ograff tends to hold all userdata in memory while you have it open ...12:55
ograit only writes config changes if you close it12:55
DanielCogra: Firefox is the same. Give it a different profile.12:55
DanielCogra: "firefox -P profile_name"12:55

jsgotangcowell i would have gotten it already if the french visa system didn't use windows03:10

jsgotangcoor else i'll troll about french technology03:14
jsgotangcoheh03:14
cbx33ok I'm here03:15
cbx33I wanted to talk to you guys about The Open CD03:15
LaserJockyeah?03:15
cbx33yeh03:16
cbx33:p03:16
jsgotangcooh yeah?03:16
slashdevnullis this a good place to ask about ltsp problems on 6.06?03:16
cbx33I had a call from heno last night03:16
jsgotangcookay03:16
cbx33as some of you know he founded the open cd project03:16
ograslashdevnull, the best :)03:16
cbx33and he's now keen not to sit on it for too long03:16
jsgotangcowe've been planning it since a while but the livecd stuff had us busy03:16
=== jsgotangco actually has the sources
cbx33so I volunteered to help out03:17
LaserJockof course :-)03:17
jsgotangcoim not surprised03:17
cbx33basically he wants to remove the ubuntu stuff that was on there which leavs us with a few hundred Mb03:17
slashdevnullthanks, ogra. I can't get my system to boot ltsp clients after upgrading to 6.06.03:17
jsgotangcocbx33: that's easy03:17
jsgotangcohave you looked at the tree structure03:18
cbx33and I think he is keen to kinda of partner up the edubuntu printed cd's with the Open CD03:18
ograslashdevnull, did you follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdubuntuLTSPUpgradeNotes ?03:18
cbx33jsgotangco: I will be later on today03:18
slashdevnullyesI think that the thin clients (Dell Dimension 5150) are 03:18
cbx33I wanted to ask if you guys have any feedback on the CD itself as it stands03:18
slashdevnullEr, sorry. yes03:18
jsgotangcowe have a tiny problem on the current UI03:18
cbx33or if you have any cool ideas for how we could reinject some life into it03:18
cbx33oh?03:18
jsgotangcocbx33: i don't think this is the proper forum to ask about the opencd03:19
ograjsgotangco, i'm sure highvoltage will disagree03:19
slashdevnullogra: I recreated the client chroot, removing the old one. several times now.03:19
cbx33well, we just thought that seeing as there is a big market out there for young people to start with open source03:19
ograslashdevnull, so what are the symptoms ?03:20
cbx33it seemed like a good idea to collect thoughts from the edubuntu gang03:20
slashdevnullThe thin client does not fully boot. I get an Ubuntu splash screen (nice touch) and it gets as far as mounting the filesystem, I believe.03:20
jsgotangcoi hacked up a version of the current k-meleon browser in my bzr branch03:20
cbx33jsgotangco: cool03:21
highvoltageogra:  and i do :)03:21
ograslashdevnull, hmm, k, do you see a line like "rooserver: " if the splash goes away ?03:21
jsgotangcothe plan for OpenCD 4 is to remove the ubuntu liveCD03:21
cbx33yes03:21
highvoltagejsgotangco: i think #edubuntu is fine to discuss the educational version of the edu-open-cd03:21
jsgotangcobut there were interest on creating an education version since there was a demand in AU03:21
slashdevnullogra: I ctrl-F1 to a text screen, where the last line is: (just a sec while I get it)03:22
highvoltagejsgotangco: since the edu-open-cd and edubuntu distribution would make fine companions, and there's a bit of overlap03:22
jsgotangcoit wouldn't be hard to add apps on the current one03:22
jsgotangcothe problem is identifying stuff03:22
cbx33esp with the extra space03:22
cbx33jsgotangco: true03:22
jsgotangcothat03:22
cbx33which is why I was putting my feelers out03:22
jsgotangcothat's what we've been stumped with for months03:22
LaserJockwhat is the url?\03:22
slashdevnullogra: rootserver: 192.168.4.2 rootpath: /opt/ltsp/i38603:23
cbx33I must admit03:23
jsgotangcoi tried adding some games, but they proved to be too violent in nature for the current audience03:23
cbx33www.theopencd.org03:23
cbx33whoops03:23
jsgotangco(Marathon for example)03:23
ograslashdevnull, 192.168.4.2 is definately your server ? 03:23
slashdevnullogra: Yes03:23
=== DanielC [n=daniel@82.151.249.90.adsl.griffin.net.uk] has left #edubuntu []
jsgotangcocbx33: there is also redistribution03:24
cbx33of course03:24
ograslashdevnull, can you try: sudo mount 192.168.4.2:/opt/ltsp/i386 /mnt and see what that gives you ?03:24
cbx33I'm not saying it's going to be easy03:24
=== jsgotangco wonders if win32 squeak license is borked
ograslashdevnull, from another linux box indeed03:24
LaserJockjsgotangco: why?03:24
LaserJockI can think of quite a few things to put on the open cd03:25
jsgotangcoLaserJock: ask ogra why we don't have squeak shipped03:25
cbx33excellent03:25
LaserJockjsgotangco: I know about squeak ;-)03:25
ograwe cant ship multiverse stuff03:25
cbx33we also talked about internationalisation03:26
LaserJockjsgotangco: I just wondered why you thought there would be a difference between linux and w3203:26
jsgotangcowell frankly it was a random thought03:26
slashdevnullogra: I am trying that now from my workstation. May not work - I'm on another network segment. I'll need to boot a machine in our training room. Just a sec, please. And thanks for the help.03:26
LaserJockcbx33: unfortunately most of the apps I could think of would not be very interesing for kids, more like high-school wanting to get into FLOSS stuff, and science of course ;-)03:27
jsgotangcothat's the thing03:27
cbx33what about having the packages on there in english but all the browser content internationalised and translated in rosetta, we could then point to localised versions of software where it is available03:27
jsgotangcocbx33: we were also thinking of relaxing the license requirements for inclusion03:28
jsgotangcobecause admittedly, there are some way cool apps that require, say java03:28
jsgotangcoor even .NET03:28

jsgotangcoso just in case you didn't know, we gave it a thought too03:28

slashdevnullogra: Mount seems to either not be happening, or is taking a long time. nfs problem?03:28
ogralooks like03:29
cbx33i wasn't aware but good thing to think about03:29
jsgotangcocbx33: its worth pondering, after all, it is supposed to be free apps03:29
ogracan you check /var/log/daemon.log to see if there is a proper errormessage ?03:29
cbx33jsgotangco: what did you think to my take on internationalisation03:29
slashdevnullogra, from my log: Jun 14 09:11:12 zion2 mountd[4719] : authenticated mount request from station3.training.innovationsw.com:643 for /opt/ltsp/i386 (/opt/ltsp)03:29
slashdevnullheh. I figured that's what you'd want next. ;)03:29
ogranothing below ? 03:29
slashdevnullno03:29
jsgotangcobut it wouldn't really help much if the long term plan is migration to a free software platform =)03:30
ogralike auth failed or something ? 03:30
slashdevnullnope03:30

ograltsp is the same in all *buntus03:31
slashdevnullwhat would you like from the workstation?03:31
ograsame log, look for failures03:31
jsgotangcocbx33: in case you didn't know, Kubuntu has some nice win32 apps on the desktop cd too that might be worth considering03:31
ogra(or probably check /var/log/messages since there likely wont be anything in the daemon.log on the client side)03:32
jsgotangcoway different from the one in gnome03:32
highvoltagebluekuja: i got hold of znarl03:32

=== DanielC [n=daniel@82.151.249.90.adsl.griffin.net.uk] has joined #edubuntu
ograslashdevnull, from what exactly did you upgrade to 6.06 ?03:33
slashdevnullJun 14 09:29:42 localhost kernel: [4294810.471000]  RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).03:33
highvoltagecbx33: what you're saying is related to bluekuja's site?03:33
cbx33so in essence the cd is multilingual - but only has engilsh on it, but points to other languages03:33
ogra(is that machine hoary based ?)03:33
slashdevnullThe server was previously Ubuntu 5.10, running ltsp.03:33
cbx33highvoltage: no03:34
ograhmm, k 03:34
slashdevnullThe clients run fat or thin, depending on how we need them03:34
ograslashdevnull, check if portmap runs on both ends 03:34
slashdevnullthey are Dell Dimension 5150's with ATI vbideo cards. I think I had fglrx in there before03:34
highvoltagecbx33: ok, just checking03:34
slashdevnullorger03:34
slashdevnullportmap *is* running on the server. It was not on the workstation03:35
ograand if it does, check /etc/default/portmap if its bound to the loopback device or something ... that file must be empty (or completely commmented)03:35
slashdevnullinstalling it on workstation now...03:35
slashdevnullcat /etc/default/portmap: # By default, listen only on the loopback interface03:35
slashdevnullOPTIONS=""03:35
jsgotangcocbx33: hmmm it shouldn't be that difficult its just a bunch of strings03:36
jsgotangcocbx33: have you heard of the moin option before?03:36
cbx33no?03:36
ograslashdevnull, fine03:36
cbx33jsgotangco: go on03:36
cbx33sorry I'm still new to all this03:36
jsgotangcocbx33: its fine03:36
ograslashdevnull, did you restart portmap on the server after upgrading ? 03:36
slashdevnullI rebooted the server. So, yes03:37
jsgotangcocbx33: the current one you're familiar right? just a bunch of static pages03:37
cbx33yes03:37
jsgotangcocbx33: but the 3.1 CD has MoinMoin Desktop03:37
ogra(you likely did reboot for a new kernel...)03:37
ograyeah03:37
slashdevnullThe thin client worked, initially, btw, after upgrading the server. I think it still had the previous kernel in memory, however.03:37
cbx33jsgotangco: oooh nice03:37
ogradamn lag here03:37
slashdevnullif that makes sense03:37
slashdevnullwhen I rebooted the thin client, it stopped working.03:37
jsgotangcocbx33: henrik is a bit of a Moin nut, so he experimented on using Moin as the interface of TOC itself03:37
jsgotangcobut should run on the CD03:38
cbx33wow03:38
jsgotangcowe tried it both but the results werent that good03:38
cbx33from what point of vierw?03:38
jsgotangcoit was reading the CD madly03:38
cbx33ah03:38
cbx33i can imagine03:38
jsgotangcoBUT03:38
jsgotangcoimagine if Moin itself ran everything03:38
jsgotangcolocalisation can be done by people on the website itself03:39
cbx33true03:39
jsgotangcothen we just lift them03:39
ograslashdevnull, hmm, what does your /etc/exports contain ? there should be only one line exporting /opt/ltsp in readonly mode 03:39
jsgotangcocbx33: have you seen orchard03:39
cbx33heard of it03:39
jsgotangcocbx33: orchard.theopencd.org03:39
jsgotangcothat is the moin experiment03:39
cbx33ahhh cool03:39
slashdevnullogra: /etc/exports: /opt/kickstart  *(ro,no_root_squash,async)03:40
slashdevnull/opt/ltsp       *(ro,no_root_squash,async)03:40
ograok, looks sane03:40
slashdevnullWe are also kickstart installing from this server. I can remove that for nwo03:40
slashdevnullfor now03:40
ograno need to03:40
slashdevnullok03:40
ograits surely a portmap problem 03:40
ogrado you run *any* firewall stuff on that machine ? 03:41
slashdevnullThe last thing I see in the splash screen is that the filesystem is mounted (it says "ok" on the right hand side. Then the screen goes black03:41
cbx33I'm gonna have to dash03:41
cbx33but we got some great ideas there jsgotangco 03:41
cbx33I'll be back03:41
slashdevnullI don't think that there are any firewall rules. I'll check.03:41
ograslashdevnull, and then you get the mount error ? 03:41
slashdevnullThe mount error does not show up on the splash. it's on the plaintext screen (alt-F1)03:41
jsgotangcocbx33: if you change the moin theme to TOC, it'll look exaclty like 3.103:42
slashdevnullEr, not mount error. The other stuff03:42
cbx33heheh03:42
cbx33excellent03:42
ograslashdevnull, i mean the splash goes away and drops you to a console, right ? or does it just stay black eternally at some later point03:43
jsgotangcocbx33: so to answer your question on 18ln, yes, its possible03:43
slashdevnullit just stays black. I manually go to the other screen via alt-F103:43
ograaha03:44
ograso it doesnt break on mounting ... thats different 03:44
slashdevnullsorry. I should have been more specific03:44
slashdevnullogra: Here's what I see: I boot the system, and see the scrolling text I'm used to seeing. Then, it's replaced with a splash screen. I get two items on that splash, the second of which seems to complete, then the screen goes black.03:45
ograanything on console 8 ? 03:46
slashdevnullI think that;s the one that goes black.03:46
slashdevnullWhen I've been saying plash screen, I men the Ubuntu splash, not the PXE info03:47
ogra7 should go black, 8 should have the bootmessages that are hidden by usplash03:47
slashdevnullah. let me check03:47
ograi could imagine its an ati problem ...03:47
LaserJockjsgotangco: does the openCD have python?03:48
slashdevnullogra: Once it goes black, the only screen I can read anything on is alt-f103:48
jsgotangcoLaserJock: interestingly no03:48
jsgotangcoLaserJock: some nice stuff created on pygame would work 03:48
slashdevnullso, can I configure around that with corg.conf or something? Try using vesa driver?03:48
LaserJockjsgotangco: wha? Don't you need python for the desktop moin?03:48
slashdevnulli'm grasping at straws, here03:48
jsgotangcoit think it installs python for its own use03:49
LaserJockyeah, ok.03:49
ograslashdevnull, yes, try creating a lts.conf with XSERVER=vesa03:49
LaserJockjsgotangco: I use Windows quite a bit and have put lots of FLOSS stuff on it03:49
ograit will be hellish slow though03:49
cbx33LaserJock: can't wait to hear your ideas :p03:50
slashdevnullJust that one line, or the [Default]  stanza as well?03:50

ograall desktop depending stuff in main == 3 years, everything else == 503:57
LaserJockogra: bah, seb128 is always a tought sell for me, to bad he's so darn good ;-)03:57
LaserJocks/tought/tough/03:57
DanielCogra: How do I know which things are "desktop"? For example, an Edubuntu server will have a lot of things I'd normally think of as desktop (Firefox).03:58
ograslashdevnull, X_MODE_0  = 1280x1024 isnt respected at all, X_COLOR_DEPTH = 24 is the default anyway, are yu sure the values for X_HORZSYNC and X_VERTREFRESH are correct ? 03:58
slashdevnullogra: this is a slightly modified version of what worked before upgrading. just changed XSERVER and commented out the last line as part of troubleshooting03:58
ograLaserJock, we'll soften him, dont worry03:58
slashdevnullI believe that they are, ogra. Worked with the last version03:58
ograDanielC, yes, edubuntu is a 3 year candidate03:58
LaserJockogra: I think he'd kill me if he saw that I had MOTU Science push >50 new .desktops in Dapper ;-)03:58
ograslashdevnull, comment everything but XSERVER for now and try again03:59
slashdevnullogra, should I uncomment the config file line, or lose it?03:59
slashdevnullok03:59
ograthe XF86CONFIG_FILE wont work 03:59
DanielCogra: So, when they say "5 years on the server" they are talking about things like LAMP? And Edubuntu is only supported for 3 years?03:59

highvoltageogra: i'm back, she came back with me to say goodbye to someone in my office, but i'll give her that long hard hug just now04:00
ograso it only applies to the servers X setup... and gets overwritten on boot ... *unless* you set XF86CONFIG_FILE ;)04:00

highvoltageogra: i think i might have hurt her04:00

slashdevnullogra: I upgraded the server via ssh. I have no idea if X is running properly on it right now, directly, I mean.04:04
ograslashdevnull, yes, xorg checks the existing hardware during package install04:04
ograsince you run ltsp-build-client on the server it generates a xorg.conf for the server ...04:04
slashdevnullDoes that mean that the server and thin clients need to have similar/same video hardware?04:04
DanielCDamm it. Installing Ubuntu on another computer and the screen went black again.04:04
DanielCDapper is severely broken if a lot of being are being hit by this issue.04:04
ograduring boot the client calls dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and generates the *real* one04:04
slashdevnullok04:04
DanielCHow are users expected to finish installation if the screen goes black?04:05
DanielCI'm doing an oem install. I can't complete it without a screen.04:05
slashdevnullThe xorg.conf that the server was creating via ltsp-build-client, iirc, set up with "ati" as the video driver.04:05
=== DanielC doesn't know what to do
ograif XF86CONFIG_FILE is set that step is skipped in the bootprocess and the file you pointed to is used 04:05
=== DanielC wonders if he should power off the computer or something
=== DanielC is getting worried, he can't finish the install if the screen is black
ograso with XF86CONFIG_FILE = /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/xorg.conf you had forced it to use the same setup your server has in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...04:06
ogra(at least they should be the same)04:06
slashdevnullI think there are differences.04:07
ograanyway, its wrong :)04:07
slashdevnullogra: I can wipe /opt/ltsp/i386 and start over, if that helps04:07
DanielCogra: What can I do? The screen went black mid-way through an oem install. Help.04:07
ogrause XF86CONFIG_FILE like: XF86CONFIG_FILE = /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/xorg.conf.client1 ...04:07

DanielCThis is the second time this happens, out of two computers. This is *bad*.04:09
DanielCThe first time I was setting up an Edubuntu server.04:09
slashdevnullogra: correct04:09
ograslashdevnull, what if you remove the file completely ? 04:10
slashdevnullogra: I believe that does not work, either. verifying...04:11
slashdevnullstupid question (double-checking): lts.conf goes in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc, right?04:12
ograyep04:13
slashdevnullverified: not working when lts.conf is removed.04:14
slashdevnullI think I am going to bench the server, put a monitor on it, and make sure that X is working on it locally.04:14
ograthat doesnt matter04:14
slashdevnullthen clear /opt/ltsp/i386 and start over. That won't help?04:14

DanielCThis is a major bug. It's happened twice in a row (on different hardware).04:17

slashdevnullogra, btw, in testing yesterday, i tried getting the thin clients to boot from the older kernel (which I no longer have, from wiping /opt/ltsp/i386). I got further in the process with that.04:19
ograDanielC, *nobody* has seen it at a time where we would have been able to fix it04:19

ograwhat did you change ? 04:20
highvoltagethat does sound a bit strange.04:21
ogra(you shouldnt touch /var/lib/tftpboot, ltsp-build-client does that)04:21
slashdevnullIn my troubleshooting, I temporarily repointed initrd.img and vmlinuz to other kernels. They have been moved back since then to where they were before the change04:21
ograDanielC, well, when was it filed ? 04:22
DanielCogra: I'm looking for the link...04:22
slashdevnullAnd, actually, yeah. Since they live outside of /opt, they didn't get wiped as I previously said. I need more coffeee.04:22

pygiogra, no worries, no need to include it even in main ;)06:05
pygiuniverse if fine ;)06:05

ograafter that, run ltsp-update-kernels to copy it over to the tftproot06:06
slashdevnulloutside of chroot, right?06:06
ograyes, but first the initramfs (in the chroot)06:06
=== Kozuch [n=jan@159.108.broadband5.iol.cz] has joined #edubuntu
ograadd fglrx to /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/mkinitramfs/modules06:07
ograthen run update-initramfs -u in the chroot06:07
ograthen the above on the server and try to boot06:08
ograhmm, you might need a custom xorg.conf or an XSERVER entry in lts.conf i'm pretty sure the autodetection will never use fglrx by default06:08

highvoltageogra: i think i should've expected something like that... sorry :)06:10
ograyou need device access you dont have 06:10
highvoltageok, that answers my question. thanks.06:11
ograsame as for xorg :)06:11
slashdevnullogra: I need to go to that meeting now. Damn.06:11
ograxgl is the worst crap evah ... its a proof of concept thing that people think they can use for real06:11
ogra(not that xgl is bad, but the marketing made around it)06:12
slashdevnullI think my only next step along these lines is pointing at an xorg.conf that references the fglrx driver06:12
slashdevnullhope to be back in a nhour or so. Thanks for all of the help.06:12
ograslashdevnull, you could first try with an XSERVER stanza in lts.conf06:12
ograyoure welcome :)06:12
highvoltageogra: i realise that (about xgl). i was just asking hypothetically, to improve my understanding of whether it would work or not.06:18
ograit wouldnt since the problem persists06:18

lucasvowhich point?10:35

ark__Another thing to look at is vncreflector. I don't know any other way to do broadcasting11:53
ark__And as for controlling/shadowing/monitoring. Eric built a vnc.so module for ltsp 4.2 that basically lets all the clients run a vncserver like X extension.11:54
ark__He built it inside the LTSP build environement 11:55
pygiright11:56
=== pygi notes all this stuff
ark__Well in any  case I just feel if ogra wants any input from me I don't mind sharing my experience and feedback from the k12ltsp list12:00
pygiark__, thanks ;)12:01
ark__BTW I use two version of vnc. tight is for the reflector and real is for the control monitor feature12:01

pygiark__, eh, that is not so good :P12:02
ark__what?12:02
pygiwell, two vnc stuff :)12:02
ark__there is only one vnc server running. realvnc. but vncreflector is a vnc proxy and it integrates well with tightvnc viewer. It works great.12:03
pygiright, I get it :P12:05
ark__this is the type of stuff I could chat with the dev of SCP. I was hoping ogra would be here12:06
