kwakhi, how can i get admin rights to upload files to edubuntu using winSCP?04:02
jsgotangcoif your box has openssh server installed, users with ssh rights can upload files via scp to their $home dirs04:08
kwakping goog04:17
kwakjstongo: im new to using edubuntu, been using K12LTSP and used root access privileges. I want to add a folder in /opt to be run auto by rc.local. 04:20
LaserJockuse sudo to get root privileges04:21
kwakil try04:22
kwakok i configured screen_01 = startx but i only get grey screen, no login screen. what could be the cause04:26
LaserJockI'm not sure what you are doing04:27
LaserJockbut usually startx doesn't give you a login screen04:27
LaserJockgdm is for that04:27
kwakso i should put screen_01 = gdm04:29
kwaknew to edubuntu. been used to k12ltsp for 2 years just switched04:30
LaserJockto be honest I don't know04:33

cbx33that X bug was big04:08
cbx33it's the talk of the channels04:08
highvoltagecbx33: yep, local lugs here are also full of it. was a big boo-boo :(04:11
cbx33I wouldn't like to be responsible for that boo boo04:11
Petarishighvoltage: If I just move the current chroot and drop in the vanilla should it just work?  Or would there be other configuration to be done?04:11
highvoltagethere would be some small changes04:11
ogracbx33, send candy and beer to rodarvus for fixing it quickly :)04:12
highvoltagejust off my head, you would probably need to copy the 'vanilla', as you call it, kernels to /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp04:12
Petarishrm, what about the communication between the client and the server?04:13
ograyou need xdmcp enabled in gdm ...04:13
cbx33ogra, I'll thank him personally when I see him04:13
ograand its kind of gambling ...04:13
PetarisIf memory serves edubuntu uses ssh tunnels, I don't remember what ltsp uses04:13
ograi'd rather do a workstation install and use the full ltsp.org 4.2 instead of poking around and mixing up two implementations04:14
ogranobody will be able to give you support for such a mixed setup ... neither ubuntu nor ltsp.org ... 04:14
Petarisogra: Any way to do that without rebuilding the base system?04:15
ograon the other hand i dont see the problem to make local apps work in ubuntus ltsp ...04:15
