| HesNikke | hiya | 01:34 |
| HesNikke | would edubuntu be a good distro to put on my 7 year old nephews 5 year old POS dell? | 01:34 |
| HesNikke | or should i go with xubunutu | 01:34 |
| Amaranth | How much RAM does it have? | 01:35 |
| HesNikke | not much | 01:35 |
| HesNikke | i wanna say 32 megs or 64 megs | 01:36 |
| Amaranth | Oh dear. | 01:36 |
| Amaranth | I don't even think Xubuntu will work on that | 01:36 |
| HesNikke | haha | 01:36 |
| HesNikke | i got knoppix to work after hacking in some swap | 01:36 |
| HesNikke | quite slowly | 01:36 |
| Amaranth | Xorg itself will use about 10MB | 01:37 |
| HesNikke | yeah, 64 megs | 01:37 |
| Amaranth | I think the kernel uses another 4-8MB | 01:37 |
| Amaranth | You'd be better off using fluxbox or something on there, I'm almost positive Xubuntu will be too heavy | 01:37 |
| Amaranth | Look into upgrading the RAM. :) 128MB will make Xubuntu happy, 256MB will make Ubuntu (and probably Edubuntu) happy | 01:38 |
| HesNikke | ok, so the other question is | 01:38 |
| HesNikke | does edubuntu have tools for a 7 year old? | 01:39 |
| HesNikke | educational games for 2nd graders and what not | 01:39 |
| Amaranth | I think so. | 01:39 |
| Amaranth | I don't use it, I just make things. :) | 01:39 |
| HesNikke | lol | 01:39 |
| Amaranth | "Gcompris is huge collection of activities for the kindergarden. It gently introduces kids to basic computer use, then it builds on that by expanding to basic maths, reading activities, and more." | 01:41 |
| Amaranth | "The Tux4kids project has produced software such as TuxPaint, TuxMaths and TuxTyping." | 01:41 |
| HesNikke | grrr | 01:43 |
| HesNikke | i can't find info on setting up xubuntu from the command line on the interweb | 01:43 |
| HesNikke | any suggestions? | 01:43 |
| Amaranth | from the command line? | 01:43 |
| HesNikke | or should i download an alternate CD? | 01:43 |
| HesNikke | yeah, it complaining about the xserver being setup wrong when i boot from the cd | 01:43 |
| Amaranth | oh | 01:43 |
| HesNikke | but if i boot with the single optoin at least i get a prompt | 01:43 |
| Amaranth | yeah, you need X to install from that CD | 01:44 |
| Amaranth | You're talking about the Desktop CD, right? | 01:44 |
| HesNikke | alright, so i'll setup X | 01:44 |
| HesNikke | yep | 01:44 |
| HesNikke | aha! | 01:47 |
| HesNikke | insuficiant memory window | 01:47 |
| HesNikke | not enough RAM :( | 01:47 |
| Amaranth | heh, i figured as much | 01:48 |
| HesNikke | and it had already picked up the swap partition i set up (256 megs) | 01:51 |
| HesNikke | :( | 01:51 |
| HesNikke | pentium II's used PC100 RAM right? | 01:51 |

| Burgundavia | knixtech: you are an odd one | 04:05 |
| simp | what if knetworkmanager freezes on 28% of connecting to a WPA-Tkip secured wireless network | 04:05 |
| knixtech | Burgundavia, why do you say that? | 04:06 |
| Burgundavia | simp: then file a bug | 04:06 |
| Burgundavia | knixtech: never mind ;) | 04:06 |
| knixtech | Burgundavia, im serious | 04:06 |
| simp | Burgundavia: but i've had it for 3 installs of kubuntu | 04:06 |
| simp | all of them were from different CD-s | 04:06 |
| Burgundavia | then it is clearly a bug in the program itself, or the driver | 04:07 |
| knixtech | Burgundavia, you talking about the tattoo statement? | 04:07 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 04:07 |
| simp | Burgundavia: but is there ANY way to get it working? i really need wifi | 04:07 |
| knixtech | Well when a distro makes you feel like this, y wouldnt you do it | 04:07 |
| knixtech | simp, wpa or wpa2? | 04:08 |
| simp | wpa | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | what chipset is your card? | 04:08 |

| === HedgeMage [n=HedgeMag@ubuntu/member/hedgemage] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| Burgundavia | that tells me nothing | 04:09 |
| Burgundavia | chipset, not manufacturer | 04:10 |
| Burgundavia | dmesg will tell you | 04:10 |
| simp | in terminal dmesg eth1? | 04:10 |
| Burgundavia | just dmesg | 04:11 |
| knixtech | tattoo right on the back of the neck | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | dmesg | grep Atheros or dmesg | grep Intel | 04:12 |
| knixtech | with Burgundavia name in the middle | 04:12 |
| Burgundavia | rightg | 04:12 |
| simp | Burgundavia: that's all i get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23698 | 04:14 |
| simp | Burgundavia: that's all it says about eth1 eth1: link is not ready | 04:15 |
| Burgundavia | looking | 04:16 |
| Burgundavia | looks liek you have an intel chipset | 04:18 |
| Burgundavia | thus I blame knetworkmanager | 04:18 |
| Burgundavia | file a bug against it and try to use dhclient directly | 04:18 |
| simp | Burgundavia: i don't get it dhclient... terminal sudo dhclient or smth? | 04:19 |
| Burgundavia | sudo dhclient eth1 | 04:20 |
| simp | how do i set the passwords and stuff? | 04:21 |

| maccam94 | Burgundavia: lol, s'ok, i don't think it's an easy question | 09:05 |
| Burgundavia | maccam94: you could create different print servers and only allow people to print to printers off one server | 09:06 |
| knixtech | nvmd | 09:07 |
| maccam94 | well there are going to be classrooms, which each have their own printer | 09:09 |
| maccam94 | and every computer will be identical | 09:09 |
| maccam94 | (there are 300 at least) | 09:09 |
| maccam94 | people will be able to log on to any machine with their own unique username and password | 09:10 |
| maccam94 | what i would like is for the available printer list to be location-sensitive | 09:10 |
| maccam94 | maybe some sort of naming scheme could be done based on mac address, and then the computers derive the available printers from their hostnames (like rm250pc1 would see printers rm250pr*) | 09:11 |
| Burgundavia | I don't think the gnome printer dialog supports that yet | 09:11 |
| maccam94 | it would be some sort of conf file variable | 09:12 |
| maccam94 | $printerhost = $hostname - pc* + pr* | 09:13 |
| maccam94 | (that's not valid but just the concept) | 09:13 |

| JJF | Hi | 09:30 |
| JJF | Just new to Edubuntu... | 09:30 |
| maccam94 | hello | 09:30 |
| JJF | hi maccam | 09:31 |
| pygi | hi JJF, welcome to the community ^_3 | 09:31 |
| pygi | ^_^ | 09:31 |
| JJF | thanks! | 09:31 |
| JJF | I'll prob. gonna be here a lot, since i'm trying to get everyone at my school involved with linux-edubuntu | 09:32 |
| JJF | you guys all work with Edubuntu? | 09:32 |
| JJF | hi pygi | 09:32 |

| knixtech | JJF, how are you going to do this? | 09:33 |
| pygi | JJF, you can meet some small part of Edubuntu community and as such contains a lot of people interested & involved in various things in Education, development, marketing, schools, unis, and such :) | 09:33 |
| JJF | good question... knixtech... I got a new job in Aruba, and there's a lot of financial problems. Old computers, hardly money for new machines, not to think about Microsucked licences | 09:34 |
| knixtech | JJF, very very nice, do it up | 09:35 |
| JJF | i had a meeting last friday, and got a few people interested, I need to setup a small lab, in order to convice my collegeas | 09:35 |
| JJF | then, the board/other staff members | 09:35 |
| knixtech | you think about ltsp? | 09:35 |
| JJF | it not just concerns the school where i work at, but the whole public school system here in Aruba | 09:35 |
| JJF | love ltsp | 09:36 |
| knixtech | sweet | 09:36 |
| JJF | i worked with windows terminal server as well.. | 09:36 |
| JJF | great concept, especially when it's free and doesnt stall! | 09:36 |
| JJF | ;) | 09:36 |
| pygi | JJF, ;) | 09:36 |
| JJF | as said before, the problem here is money, microsoft makes it harder also to pirate software, which btw i dont think is bad... but since i'm (or the schools) are wihtout money, what's left to do | 09:37 |
| JJF | :) | 09:37 |
| knixtech | you got that right, welcome | 09:37 |
| JJF | I prefer legal and stability, therefor linux... i looked into edubuntu, and it might be my solution | 09:38 |
| JJF | hehe thanks kniptech | 09:38 |
| JJF | p=x | 09:38 |
| JJF | but do you guys work in schools too, or you comp.wizardz at home/work | 09:38 |
| pygi | you can't just generalise stuff like that :) | 09:39 |
| JJF | what do you mean | 09:39 |
| JJF | pygi? | 09:39 |
| knixtech | JJF, i am a network admin for technical education and am going to implement edubuntu in education | 09:39 |
| pygi | JJF, well, not everything boils down to "school worker" or "computer hacker" | 09:39 |
| JJF | ofcourse pygi, but since this channel is for edubuntu, that's why i asked it | 09:40 |
| JJF | im a network admin myself, mainly school enviroments, but had too many problems with windows | 09:41 |
| JJF | this situation might not just convince my collegeas, but also government employees | 09:41 |
| JJF | the available educational software and ltsp will give the pro's vs the cons... (if there are any cons) | 09:42 |
| maccam94 | i wish the ubuntu mystory thing was up | 09:42 |
| knixtech | JJF, you are right up my alley, we should brainstorm together | 09:42 |
| JJF | good. | 09:43 |
