| pygi | LaserJock, lol, ok, I was on a lot of channels, and I don't remember much of them | 12:30 |
| sbalneav | LaserJock: pong | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | sbalneav: DEINOS just install Edubuntu 6.06 but then installed LTSP 4.1 | 12:31 |
| sbalneav | ugh | 12:31 |
| DEINOS | its my 1st time in linux !!! | 12:31 |
| DEINOS | so what i do now ??? | 12:32 |
| sbalneav | at this point, best bet would be to rm /opt/ltsp*, then do a ltsp-build-client && ltsp-update-sshkeys && ltsp-update-kernels | 12:32 |
| DEINOS | how do i do this | 12:32 |
| sbalneav | That will put things back the way they were. | 12:32 |
| sbalneav | sudo rm /opt/ltsp* | 12:33 |
| sbalneav | sudo ltsp-build-client && ltsp-update-sshkeys && ltsp-update-kernels | 12:33 |
| sbalneav | whoops sorry | 12:33 |
| sbalneav | sudo ltsp-build-client | 12:33 |
| sbalneav | sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys | 12:34 |
| sbalneav | sudo ltsp-update-kernels | 12:34 |
| DEINOS | rm /opt/ltsp* | 12:34 |
| DEINOS | opss | 12:34 |
| DEINOS | -- /opt/ltsp': Is a directory | 12:34 |
| sbalneav | sudo rm -rf /opt/ltsp* | 12:34 |

| DEINOS | alsa base | 12:37 |
| DEINOS | apt | 12:38 |
| DEINOS | almost there | 12:38 |
| DEINOS | so how i configure this LTSP | 12:38 |
| ogra | you dont need to :) | 12:39 |
| ogra | it should autodetect everything | 12:39 |
| DEINOS | so i must only put on the clients machine a disquete whit the rom image to boot up ???? | 12:40 |
| ogra | you should have a PXE booting client ... | 12:40 |
| DEINOS | network adapter rom !! | 12:40 |
| ogra | or make a etherboot disk that emulates PXE | 12:40 |
| DEINOS | in the client disk , or on the server | 12:40 |
| DEINOS | just this , i want to use etherbot | 12:41 |
| ogra | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPBootingClientsWithoutPxe | 12:41 |
| DEINOS | tnx | 12:41 |
| LaserJock | hmm, well I hope edubuntu-menus gets out of NEW soon | 12:44 |
| LaserJock | I'd like to actually upload some fixes soon | 12:44 |

| DEINOS | hey guis | 02:07 |
| DEINOS | can anyone help me please | 02:08 |

| DEINOS | i need help to configure LTSP on a Edubuntu LTS 6.06 | 02:08 |
| DEINOS | its my 1st time using linux | 02:08 |
| DEINOS | can u help | 02:09 |
| DEINOS | soo ? | 02:10 |
| Burgwork | ah, ok | 02:11 |
| Burgwork | you have dived in deep | 02:11 |
| Burgwork | have you read edubuntu.org/GettingStarted ? | 02:11 |
| DEINOS | no | 02:11 |
| Burgwork | read that, it will explain much | 02:11 |
| DEINOS | to much time , i have to proof if this system realy works , tomorow im goig to buy old computer to do a cyber cafe | 02:12 |
| DEINOS | for a client , i dont want to use windows 2003 server to do that | 02:13 |
| Burgwork | right | 02:13 |
| Burgwork | getting started will walk you through the three or four steps needed | 02:13 |
| DEINOS | can u give me a quick explanation about LTSP ? | 02:14 |
| Burgwork | sure, the server has a dhcp server, which gives an addy, then the PXE-booting machines ask the server for the files, they boot, people login | 02:16 |
| Burgwork | on the server side, the stuff the client loads in stored in a chroot | 02:16 |

| Lilandra | does a default install of edubuntu have schooltool installed? | 03:47 |
| knixtech | Lilandra, yes | 03:47 |
| Lilandra | well, if i can't find it but the binary is still there, how do i uninstall it (i mean it'snot in dpkg -l) | 03:47 |
| knixtech | Lilandra, open up synaptic and search for schooltool | 03:48 |
| Lilandra | synaptic? not apt-get? | 03:48 |
| knixtech | visually you can see if its installed with synaptic | 03:49 |
| Lilandra | well there's something at /usr/bin/schooltool | 03:49 |
| knixtech | schooltool is installed by default | 03:49 |
| Lilandra | but it's not listed as installed most likely because i did a recovery on my system ages ago and things got...a bit crazy in the installed database | 03:49 |
| knixtech | type locate schooltoll | 03:50 |
| knixtech | anything show up? | 03:50 |
| Lilandra | lots of stuff | 03:50 |
| knixtech | then its there | 03:50 |
| knixtech | do you have apache installed? | 03:50 |
| Lilandra | so how do i uninstall it? and how do i find all the other things that were installed but not in the database? | 03:50 |
| Lilandra | um... | 03:50 |
| Lilandra | maybe not | 03:51 |
| knixtech | apt-get remove schooltool | 03:51 |
| Lilandra | says not installed so not removed | 03:51 |
| knixtech | lol | 03:51 |
| Lilandra | ah! don't worry! i'm going to reinstall freshly soon! | 03:52 |
| Lilandra | this partitioning is stressful | 03:52 |
| knixtech | nice decision | 03:52 |
| Lilandra | it's a small partition on my laptop and then silly me made a / and a /home but it hink for a small partition i shouldn't :) | 03:52 |

| Solaris444 | Hey fellas. A friend recommended me to show you all a piece of software my team developed. | 10:00 |
| Solaris444 | It is a piece of educational management software. | 10:01 |
| Solaris444 | I'll post a link and you can see what you think: | 10:01 |
| knixtech | nice | 10:01 |
| Solaris444 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/equil/ | 10:01 |
| Solaris444 | Basically it is useful for managing students in laboratory sessions. | 10:02 |
| Solaris444 | Instead of raising hands it queues them up and tracks certain stats etc. | 10:02 |
| knixtech | i like i like | 10:02 |
| Solaris444 | thanks! | 10:02 |
| Solaris444 | Comments and questions are welcome. | 10:03 |

| knixtech | cbx33, do you mind looking at a piece of software my firend created for education? | 10:08 |
| knixtech | friend* | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | knixtech, hi | 10:08 |
| knixtech | hello | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | is it a piece of software you wrote? | 10:08 |
| knixtech | my friends team did | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | what does it do? | 10:09 |
| knixtech | http://sourceforge.net/projects/equil/ | 10:09 |
| === knixtech wishes he could code, ;) | ||
| cbx33 | hehe | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | so give me abrief run down | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | what does it do? | 10:10 |
| Solaris444 | ah cbx, it is short for "Electronic Queueing of Users In Labs" | 10:10 |
| Solaris444 | Basically it is a lab ticket system. | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | oh? | 10:10 |
| Solaris444 | Server-client architecture , written in java to ensure fair use of demonstrator time. | 10:11 |
| cbx33 | tickets? | 10:11 |
| cbx33 | as in support | 10:11 |
| Solaris444 | Like instead of the users putting up their hands waiting for the dem to help them and potentially getting missed... | 10:11 |
| Solaris444 | They click to join the queue. | 10:11 |
| Solaris444 | Also, it was written to be as unabuseable as possible. | 10:11 |
| cbx33 | I see..... | 10:11 |
| Solaris444 | No spamming, no privelidge escalation, | 10:12 |
| Solaris444 | No DoS. | 10:12 |
| cbx33 | Solaris444, this looks like something that would be best integrated into SCP | 10:12 |
| cbx33 | are you aware of it? | 10:12 |
| Solaris444 | SCP? | 10:12 |
| cbx33 | Student Control Panel | 10:12 |
| cbx33 | it's in ubuntu | 10:12 |
| Solaris444 | oh! I didn't know about it. | 10:13 |
| Solaris444 | I am not a regular users. | 10:13 |
| knixtech | hee hee | 10:13 |
| cbx33 | I suggest looking at it.....it's writen in python | 10:13 |
| cbx33 | ogra started it, but I did the developemtn work for edgy | 10:13 |
| Solaris444 | oh. ours is written in Java. | 10:13 |
| Solaris444 | The server is in java too. | 10:13 |
| cbx33 | I think, people will correct me if I'm wrong that it's too late to get it into this release | 10:14 |
| cbx33 | you may be able to get it into the ubuntu universe | 10:14 |
| Solaris444 | well, that would certainly be good for the group... | 10:14 |
| cbx33 | Solaris444, well....I suggest downloading the new knot3 version of edgy | 10:14 |
| cbx33 | and see how it would fit in | 10:15 |
| Solaris444 | ubuntu or edubuntu (forgive my ignorance) | 10:15 |
| knixtech | edu | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | they are one in the same | 10:15 |
| knixtech | ya | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | edubuntu is just a meta package that installs extra components | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | but, we have a CD where those extra packages are preinstalled | 10:15 |
| Solaris444 | ahhhh. | 10:15 |
| Solaris444 | I get it now. | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | ;) | 10:16 |
| === knixtech thinks we have a new ubuntu user ;) | ||
| cbx33 | I would really like to have that kind of functionality in edgy + 1 for Student Control Panel | 10:16 |
| === knixtech seconds that | ||
| cbx33 | Solaris444, we run an LTSP environment? | 10:17 |
| cbx33 | have you come across that? | 10:17 |
| Solaris444 | No? | 10:17 |
| Solaris444 | What is it? | 10:17 |
| cbx33 | if you are interested in developing for it I suggest you give it a go | 10:17 |
| cbx33 | it's a thin client system | 10:17 |
| knixtech | ltsp = light terminal server project | 10:18 |
| Solaris444 | ok. | 10:18 |
| Solaris444 | interesting. ok. but what do we do about the fact that the current server and interface both require sun java? | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | basically the client machines....which are diskless...boot from the server over the network | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | well.....iirc java is not preinstalled on edubuntu | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | and doing so would push our CD size over the limit | 10:18 |
| Solaris444 | i know. :/ | 10:18 |
| Solaris444 | of course. | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | we are VERY tight on CD space | 10:19 |
| Solaris444 | so how can we move these functions into scp? | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | well, do you know any python? | 10:19 |
| Solaris444 | None of the team know python. | 10:19 |
| Solaris444 | :-( | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | heh | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | have you ever used dbus? | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | infact ...... :) | 10:19 |
| Solaris444 | We are final year uni students. | 10:19 |
| === cbx33 had a good idea | ||
| Solaris444 | ok. | 10:19 |
| Solaris444 | *listens* | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | next release.... | 10:20 |
| === cbx33 is going to write an extended plugin framework for SCP | ||
| cbx33 | it's possible that you could interface with that easily | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | alot of our dev work is in python... | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | it's a very easy language to use | 10:20 |
| Solaris444 | interesting. I will have to save this converstaion. I won't remember all of this. | 10:21 |
| Solaris444 | sorry, but where can I pick up knot 3? | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | I'll get you a link | 10:22 |
| Solaris444 | ok cheers. I will have to chat to the rest of the team. | 10:23 |
| === knixtech claps his hands | ||

| cbx33 | is where you can find knot 3 | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/ | 10:23 |

| cbx33 | knot3 is largely stable | 10:24 |
