[06:05] this is for elementary school kids [06:05] 256 would do [06:05] i run Kubuntu and Ubuntu on a celeron 400 with 192mb of ram as well [06:05] 256 would be good, and more would be better ;) [06:06] ic [06:06] any reason to run it in a networked environment vs standalone unnetworked?

[12:24] the startup curce is always quite steep [12:24] scarmbling around for the docs etc [12:24] yup [12:24] my problem was I was using some python API's that didn't have python docs [12:24] they had C docs [12:24] ruby seems easy though [12:24] but were vastly different [12:24] yakk! [12:25] I saw a tutorial on it, ruby that is, but never tried it yet [12:25] been tiooooo busy [12:25] anyway, one of the side goals is to do some user management for ltsp accounts/samba but on some centralized way )over multiple servers) [12:25] that replicate parts of the tree to the real servers so they vcan work even if the central server is down [12:26] but this will take what, another year - if ever... [12:26] I wish I had a sh*tload of $$$$ [12:26] heheh me too [12:26] I'd quit work and work on edubuntu [12:26] It seems you can get a 1 Mbit frame relay for under 1000 usd nowadays :-) [12:28] brb (time to make breakfast) === Laser_away [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #edubuntu [12:43] ping acesuares: You've got mail.

It will however help a lot to have a "common request & response format" for each request, to enable lie-for-like comparison.

[04:29] Valley FM - Worcester & Breede Valley [04:30] are they going to send you a copy of the interview? [04:30] highvoltage: My first one since 1996 when I locked myself in a room with only Internet connectivity for 88 days. [04:30] :) [04:30] RichEd: aah, that's how Jane met you, right? [04:30] highvoltage: I'll ask for it ... it was quite lightweight ... mostly a response to the IOL stories today [04:31] RichEd: ping me once you read the mail, but don't bother to reply yet... it's probably more efficient to make our skype call now.. is that possible? [04:31] yep ... "I married a chic I met on the internet" <- how much more geekier can you get thatn that ? [04:32] :) [04:32] highvoltage: Just scanned the mail you sent to Catherine Capers ... some quite provocative statements from her side :) [04:33] especillay considering the people you CC'd across at k12 [04:33] pips ... have you got my skype details ? [04:33] RichEd: I think it's a he [04:34] RichEd: nope, and in fact, I haven't even installed skype on ubuntu partition yet! [04:34] he mailed before, I think ogra has learned to just ignore him :) [04:34] but somehow I always feel obliged to respond to people. [04:34] A he called Catherine ? Well good luck to him then :) [04:34] RichEd: sometimes these people who make provocotive statements mean well, as hard as that is to believe :) [04:34] RichEd: either i reboot into m$ windows, or I install it... ahm, hold on [04:35] RichEd: I think Catherine is part of his surname [04:35] there was an explanation in one of the e-mails, but I lost it === pips1 looks for skype in synaptic [04:35] highvoltage: No, it's a good mail to have replied to and copied to me and the K12 people ... it puts the rat amongst the pigeons [04:35] stir it up a bit [04:36] RichEd and highvoltage: stop talking about it, I'm almost exploding from curiosity by now ;-) [04:36] Some of the commente re newbie install 7 docs & help are 100% spot on ... this is part of a debate between Matt, Jono, Philip and myself ... [04:37] install & docs : not seven docs [04:37] :) === Rondom [n=Rondom@p54AEF058.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu [04:38] highvoltage: did your mail go to a public list? [04:38] k12 merger is somewhere in the future, given the LTSP debian merge happening now, but if we can't please this sort of user, and show good support for a non-techncial person, then technical equivalence to K12 is not enough. [04:39] So, in a funny way, that mail is bang on the head ... spot on problem focus ! [04:39] pips1: I'll mail it to you. Highvoltage mentioned you in the mail by name, so you're in the loop already. [04:40] ok === pips1 is still fiddling around with repositories in synaptic [04:41] was skype dropped entirely? [04:41] pips1: let me know when you have skype ... or if it becomes a hassle, we can IRC [04:41] RichEd: do you ever tab-autocomplete nicks in your IRC client? It's just funny for me to see my nick with a capital H :) [04:41] Mostly I autocomplete with a tab. Sometimes my fingers go ahead and autocomplete. [04:42] hehe [04:42] depends on how many threads are running [04:42] you must be a fast typer then [04:47] RichEd: are you using skype on ubuntu at all? === pips1 anticipates RichEd making a confession about using m$ or mac ;-) [04:48] I use a steam powered Turing machine with a tin can and a bit of string. [04:49] pips1: Yes. I have skype installed on Edubuntu. [04:49] you avoided a confession very well ;-) [04:49] oh [04:49] Let me see where I found it. [04:50] Next to my Edubuntu/Ubuntu/Kubuntu/WindowsXP quad boot machine, I have a MS Noebook, a MS Server and in my study I have a MS Tablet as my internet gateway. [04:50] woa [04:50] I use Edubuntu for 95% of my work. [04:50] glad to hear it :-) === RichEd decides to confes before the electricity generator and probe machine comes out [04:51] RichEd: too late === pygi [n=pygi@89-172-230-244.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu [04:51] anyway, I start to suspect that I had installed skype with the binary installer provided by them === pips1 shudders [04:52] ahhh highvoltage alert .... [04:52] RichEd: I think pips1 were just testing whether you'd confess before we send the bigger probes (you don't want to know what we use them for) [04:52] LOL [04:53] highvoltage RichEd have you ever used ekiga VoIP? [04:53] I've been meaning to [04:53] pips1: I remember a skype page on ubuntu telling why it is not part of main / universe becuse of the proprietary nature of the protocol even though the s/w if free [04:54]
