ograi just noted that detroit doesnt really have sidewalks anywhere :)01:48

flintogra, sidewalks are illegal in the US.  01:49
ograyou have a sidewlak that goes over three or four houses and ends at a tree :)01:49
ograor "just ends" ....01:49
flintRichEd, excellent. Circumstances have conspired to keep me from focusing here on the edubuntu stuff which is what I would like to do.01:49
ograwas funny when i wanted to walk a bit while having a ciggy01:50
flintogra, you took your life in your hands.  I have been smoking "Bee Dees" a low smoke for Lahore, Pakistan.  You must try one...01:51
Amaranthogra: Detroit is "Motor City", no one walks :P01:51
flintogra, The guys I am working with bring them back.01:51
ograright, i noticed that :)01:51

pygiright, heh :P04:52
pygithink we should package that stuff for him today?04:52
pygiwould be nice to have it at least in universe for edgy04:54
jsgotangcodo you know where its located?04:57
jsgotangcoits in a sourceforge project site04:57
pygihttp://sourceforge.net/projects/py-education04:57
jsgotangcohe used to be available on jabber regularly, but by the end of the program he doesn't go much online anymore04:58
pygiindeed04:58
jsgotangcobut then he actually *finished* the project as intended04:59
jsgotangcohe would have wanted to have this on universe for sure, but he probably didnt know much of the process and since he couldn't come on IRC, he had a hard time interacting on email04:59
pygiwell, can't we package it for him right now? :P05:00
=== willvdl [n=Will@vc-196-207-32-253.3g.vodacom.co.za] has left #edubuntu ["No]
jsgotangcopygi: sure we can05:00
jsgotangcopygi: are you going to?05:00
jsgotangcopygi: this past few weeks has been hectic to me, i could barely come online even 05:01
pygijsgotangco: dunno, depends on how much work it would involve (and hopefully it doesn't need edgy-deps at this moment)05:01
pygijsgotangco: it's also interesting he provides ubuntu package on SF05:04
jsgotangcohe surely did his homework05:06
pygiindeed05:06
jsgotangcoshould i send him an email regarding this?05:07
=== Seveas [n=seveas@ubuntu/member/seveas] has joined #edubuntu
jsgotangcoand try to have it on the archives if its still possible?05:07
pygiI'm kinda confused with all the files on SF page tho....does every part needs to be included? or is quizzical sum-of-summarum everything?05:07
pygijsgotangco: perhaps, but he would have to respond very quick if we want it in edgy05:07
jsgotangcowell what he did was split all the components05:08
pygijsgotangco: also quizzical contains server, lib, bla, bla, all in one05:08
pygihm, right05:08
pygibut how I know what to package? All things that are there?05:08
jsgotangcobut it seems some of the packages may have the same stuff inside05:08
pygiindeed05:08
jsgotangcoi just looked at quizzical and quizzical-student05:09
pygiif nothing, this things certainly need to be further developed and maintained05:09
pygihe did a magnificient job05:09
jsgotangcowhat's your email? ill put you on CC05:09
pygimario.danic@gmail.com05:10
pygiups, that'll be in logs now05:10
pygidamn :P05:10
jsgotangcolol05:10
pygiwhat exactly you gonna send? :)05:10
pygithe deb packages even seem to be properly named05:11
jsgotangcojust an email asking him about it05:12
pygioki :)05:13
pygiask him if he has source packages for all that stuff05:13
pygiif he does, I can inspect them & fix if something needs fixing05:13
pygijsgotangco: and ask him what exactly needs to be included so this would be functional....all or just some (which?) components05:15

ograapart from that its ready for beta ;)05:38
sbalneavYou want two network cards right?  To test the autoconfig of the ltsp interface?05:39

ograwith all bells and whistles05:39
ograsbalneav, right05:39
sbalneavok, Will do when I get home.05:39
ograi test with three here ...05:39
ograworks fine including the autoconfig ...05:39
ograone NIC should give a warning that you need to set up ltsp manually ... two should just configure the second one silently and three or more should gve a selection list05:40

mhzRichEd, also I have been talking to lguerra 07:50
RichEdWhat's up there at Watts. Are you doing some work for them ?07:50
mhzthx, for helping him, esp. since I am very 'unstable' oin web lately07:50
RichEdYep. I've been chatting with lguerra as well.07:50
mhzRichEd, yup, little consulting work07:50
RichEdWe've agreed to help him with the Colombia presentation as follows:07:51
mhzRichEd, there are many tests they are performing, at desktop and server levels07:51
RichEd1) Pygi and I are preparing a presentation for Hungary event.07:51
RichEd2) we will compare with what you said you had for lguerra, and do best effort combo07:52
mhzcool07:52
RichEd3) he will use the 2 schoolgirls who have been helping with edubuntu.org spanish transalation to translate presentation to Spanish07:52
mhzI will provide URL for the presentation I have been working on07:52
mhzthough it was fist conceived for Ubuntu general purposes   Edubuntu, later on07:53
RichEd4) I have suggested that he use the 2 schoolgirls to deliver the persentation to his audience, and to talk about how they themselves are involved with and help with and benefit from the Edubuntu community effort07:53
mhzit is made in MoinMoin wiki and uses a real cool moin plugin that renders page as fullscreen presentation with menu and all07:54
RichEdi.e. if two little schoolgirls are not afraid, how can they be afraid ?07:54
RichEdWe are chatting about the possibility of:07:54
mhzgood point07:54
RichEd1. Ubuntu T-shirts for the girls ... and possibly a certificate saying thanks for their good work (on edubuntu.org translation) ... for a school hand-over ceremony07:55
=== mhz is now working on a simple 'thanks kind of diploma' with Edubuntu LoCo Cl logo and key fingerprint ;)
RichEdgood :) we can piggyback ... just something "in recognition of the hard work and spirit" etc.07:55
mhzI can provide the SVG (source file) for anyone interested on using it as base07:55
RichEdgood :)07:56
=== mhz will send it to the ML
RichEd2. and possibly a video or photo welcome and introduction for the presentation ... Mark best if possible ...07:56
mhzRichEd, there is gonna take place the IV Forum for Education Libre in Venezuela07:57
RichEdThanks for the offer of help with the persentation.07:57
RichEdRichEd, there is gonna take place the IV Forum for Education Libre in Venezuela <- sorry please clarify ?07:57
mhzmy friend of the ISEIT institute is one of the leading speakers07:57
RichEdis this the same venue / event as the lguerra one ?07:58
mhzhttp://mhz.homelinux.org/tcwiki/PesentacionesUbuntu07:59
mhznope, a diff event07:59
mhzUsually, since July on, there are many events related to FLOSS in LAm08:00
mhzin Chile, 2 are also coming08:00
mhzbeing the one sponsored by one of the most important universities, the event we all must go.08:01
mhzUniversidad Tecnica Santa Maria08:01
mhzRichEd, BTW, pressin on 'El Mundo Ubuntu' at this URL will opne the SLideShow http://mhz.homelinux.org/tcwiki/PesentacionesUbuntu08:02
mhzRichEd, on a totally diff topic... I also requested some materials to marilize via special-requests-web-form08:03
mhzbut havent heard form her yert08:04
mhz-r08:04
mhzAnd, last but not least... we should keep an eye close to the Fluxbuntu project. Joejaxx and have been talking lot lately08:05
mhzand they will provide a Fluxbuntu Education Edition (FEE)08:05
mhzthis will allowed the use of PII and PIII without the need of GNOME and some other heavy libs08:06
RichEdthis is good news: <mhz> RichEd, yup, little consulting work <mhz> RichEd, there are many tests they are performing, at desktop and server levels <- is any of it Ubuntu or Open Source08:06

meuserjquick ltsp question...10:34
sbalneavYes?10:34
meuserjI'm creating a script for starting rdesktop by combining the LTSP script and the (ed)ubuntu xstart script... I got it working perfectly, except for one thing:10:35
meuserjwhen I assign it to SCREEN_01 it starts up fine, but keyboard input stops working10:35
sbalneavHmm10:36
sbalneavCan you try it on screen 02?10:36
meuserjwhen I assign it to SCREEN_07, keyboard and everything work, but after startup, the screen goes back to TTY1 for some reason10:36
ogrameuserj, in dapper ? 10:37
meuserjogra, yeah10:37
ogratry if that still happens if you remove the splash argument in the pxelinux config10:37
sbalneavogra: Interaction with either the getty, or usplash?10:37
sbalneavyeah, thought so.10:37
ograusplash ... 10:37
ogravery likely10:37
ograwe need to call /etc/init.d/usplash start (yes start, dont ask) in the ltsp-client initscript ... i have a fix prepared for dapper ... but thats waiting for some other stuff10:38
ograbut will likely be in dapper-updates before edgy releases10:39

ograyou should also be able ot just do the fix in the ltsp-client initscript i described above ...10:42
cbx33ogra, I still didn't solv that tftp prolbem10:42
ograit calls stop there instead of start10:42

pips1ogra, I want to use your 'rsyncer.sh' script to update the old daily to the latest... I read the --help, but I don't quite remember: do I need to place the old daily iso in the same dir as the script?11:00
ogranope an edubuntu subdir11:01
pips1ta11:05
=== arkan0x [n=arkan0x@201.215.139.215] has joined #edubuntu
pips1ogra: so, unless i use the --create option, it will only sync isos that already exist in subdirs?11:11
ograyes11:14
ograelse it will just download them11:14
meuserjok, I've got one more question.... There is an unused ide flash drive on the thin client I am dealing with... I have formatted it as swap space, and added the fstab entry to the nfs mount that it uses, but it doesn't seem to be picking it up... is there something that I am missing?11:17
ograyes, the initscript is likely disabled ...11:19
ogralook for swap in the intiscripts dir and link an S script to rc2.d 11:19
ograwe have ful swap support in edgy ...11:19
ogra(even ful network swapping)11:20
meuserjyeah, I was reading about that11:20
=== sbalneav [n=sbalneav@mail.legalaid.mb.ca] has left #edubuntu ["Leaving"]
pips1ogra: erm, I just tried ./rsyncher.sh and it didn't do anything?! 11:27
ograhmm, i didnt use it for a while ...11:27
pips1I'll just try some of the -- options, then :)11:29
pips1trial and error :)11:29
cbx33darn it ogra I wish I'd have gotten grasynco out in time11:29
cbx33got caught up11:30
cbx33pips1, next release there is a nice grahpical tool called grasynco to do it all for you11:30
ograpips1, rsync -az --progress rsync://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/edubuntu/daily/current/edgy-install-i386.iso edgy-install-i386.iso (in the edubuntu dir where the iso is ... mind oyu, thats from the top of my head)11:31
mhzre11:36
mhzogra: why is that after specifying DNS at either the network-admin tool or via /etc/resolv.conf, settings are wiped out and none stays there after rebooting?11:37
mhzoops, hi ogra 11:37
pips1ogra: so that is using "plain" 'rsync' instead of your 'rsyncer.sh' ... right11:37
ogramhz, are you using network manager or do you have installed evil stuff like resolvconf ? 11:37
ograpips1, thats what rsyncer actually does :)11:38
mhzLaserJock: my last try regarding usplash will be a tip I got:sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-YOUR VERSION 11:38
LaserJockodd11:38
mhzogra: i installed Edubuntu server but user prefers/needs  ubuntu look ;)11:39
mhzso, yes, I have resolvconf (default in my laptop too)11:39
ograouch11:40
ograthats crap11:40
mhzyup11:40
ograremove it and your resolv.conf wont be touched11:40
LaserJockyeah11:40
LaserJockI had to figure that out the other day11:40
LaserJockI couldn't figure out why my network wasn't working when I rebooted11:40
=== jinty [n=jinty@195.Red-83-58-178.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu
ografor the initramfs ... use sudo update-initramfs -u11:40
mhzplus, after user sets dns values viua network-admin tool, these setting still need to be manualy specify by choosing a 'location', instead of just rebooting using previous setting11:41
mhzogra: so, basically, you suggest:11:43
mhzremove resolvconf app11:43
mhzthen11:43
mhzrun initramfs?11:43
mhzLaserJock: you already solved it?11:43
LaserJockyeah11:44
LaserJockthe network thing11:44
mhzthat same way?11:44
LaserJockremove resolvconf11:44
=== mhz is rebooting to proceed removing
