| BonBonTheJon | how can I help edubuntu | 06:25 |
| Burgundavia | BonBonTheJon: many ways | 06:27 |
| Burgundavia | what do you like doing? | 06:27 |
| BonBonTheJon | I tried looking at the web site, but I couldn't get much information | 06:28 |
| BonBonTheJon | I am a computer science major, so I can do some programming or documentation | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | cool | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | for documentation, there is a major push on right now | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | HedgeMage: you around? | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | currently they are wokring on the Edubuntu Handbook | 06:29 |
| HedgeMage | Burgundavia: FSVT | 06:29 |
| HedgeMage | Burgundavia: what's up? | 06:29 |
| BonBonTheJon | i saw a post about that on one of the news feeds | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | HedgeMage: BonBonTheJon the interested in helping out on documentation | 06:30 |
| HedgeMage | ooh! | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | BonBonTheJon: there is a programming stuff to do as well, just the current need is for documentation | 06:31 |
| BonBonTheJon | I'd be glad to help | 06:31 |
| HedgeMage | BonBonTheJon: The Edubuntu Handbook could use all the help we can get right now :) | 06:31 |
| BonBonTheJon | what do I do | 06:31 |
| HedgeMage | BonBonTheJon: know how to use Subversion? | 06:32 |
| BonBonTheJon | I've heard about it, but I don't really know how to use it | 06:32 |
| HedgeMage | BonBonTheJon: it's pretty easy... first make sure you have it installed (the package name is "subversion") | 06:34 |
| HedgeMage | then, check out the instructions in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Repository | 06:35 |
| HedgeMage | our stuff is, predictably, in Edubuntu/Handbook inside the ubuntu-doc repo | 06:35 |
| HedgeMage | BonBonTheJon: if I can answer questions or point you in a right direction, just ask... I'll be more awake in 12 hours or so... right now I'm just catching up on some things before bed :) | 06:37 |
| HedgeMage | feel free to poke me as long as I'm still around, though | 06:37 |
| BonBonTheJon | HedgeMage: thanks, I need to be going to bed soon anyway | 06:37 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 06:38 |
| BonBonTheJon | Burgundavia: thanks agian | 06:38 |
| Burgundavia | BonBonTheJon: no worries | 06:39 |
| Burgundavia | feel free to ping me if you need help | 06:39 |
| Burgundavia | I have been a member of the doc team for a very long time | 06:39 |
| HedgeMage | BonBonTheJon: thanks for wanting to help out! | 06:40 |
| BonBonTheJon | HedgeMage: I've been wanting to help out, and when I saw a post on one of the news feeds I thought this should be the place | 06:41 |
| ^Ghost2U | I installed dapper default options, and it isnt running dhcpd .. I cannot connect to it via thin client..weird | 06:42 |
| ^Ghost2U | where did i go wrong? | 06:43 |
| ^Ghost2U | more importantly, how do i fix it??? | 06:44 |
| ^Ghost2U | wanted to run ltsp | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | ^Ghost2U: did you install edubuntu or the workstation? | 06:46 |
| ^Ghost2U | edubuntu | 06:46 |
| Burgundavia | the purely default install? | 06:47 |
| ^Ghost2U | it supposedly built the chroot sucessfully, and proceeded to install packages | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | ah | 06:47 |
| ^Ghost2U | yep, except for the ip adresses | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | you need two nics | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | one to the outside world and one to the thin clients | 06:48 |
| ^Ghost2U | B: care to expand on that??? | 06:48 |
| === ^Ghost2U is confuzzled | ||
| Burgundavia | you need two network cards | 06:49 |
| Burgundavia | one for the thin client network and the other for the internet | 06:49 |
| ^Ghost2U | ok ... S.A.Q: why??? | 06:49 |
| === nixternal yells into the mic, "test 1, 2, test 1, 2"...."is this thing on?" | ||
| nixternal | ;) | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | 'cuase you don't want to have your dhcp server blasting out over the public interface | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | nixternal: hello and greetings | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | please don't knock over all the plants on the way in | 06:50 |
| nixternal | hehe | 06:50 |
| nixternal | to late | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | typical americans ;) | 06:50 |
| nixternal | speaking of plants, ever figure out what those bugs were on your tator plants? | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | nope | 06:51 |
| nixternal | outcome of the tators? | 06:51 |
| Burgundavia | but they basically ruin my crop | 06:51 |
| Burgundavia | some | 06:51 |
| nixternal | ouch | 06:51 |
| nixternal | that stinks | 06:51 |
| Burgundavia | I need to dig the rest of them up this week | 06:51 |
| ^Ghost2U | B: I get that.. basically I have 2 pc's behind a router/access point, and i turned off dhcp for the router.. | 06:52 |
| Burgundavia | right | 06:52 |
| Burgundavia | is your dhcpd running? | 06:52 |
| ^Ghost2U | no, and i don't know why not | 06:53 |
| ^Ghost2U | no errors during install | 06:53 |
| Burgundavia | sudo /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart | 06:53 |
| Burgundavia | try that | 06:53 |
| ^Ghost2U | didn't work | 06:53 |
| Burgundavia | what did it say? | 06:53 |
| ^Ghost2U | for mine it's dhcp3-server, but it fails on stop & start | 06:55 |
| nixternal | g'nite | 06:55 |
| ^Ghost2U | nite nix | 06:55 |
| Burgundavia | right | 06:56 |
| Burgundavia | likely a config issue | 06:56 |
| Burgundavia | likely the server has a log | 06:56 |
| Burgundavia | find out where it is and google the specific error | 06:56 |
| Burgundavia | I have actually never setup LTSP | 06:57 |
| BonBonTheJon | how to i use kdesvn and subversion | 06:58 |
| ^Ghost2U | I did under vmware, and connected to it from another v-m on another pc.. had it working but needed to shutdown dhcp on 2003 domain to do so, so i decided to create an isolated network to experiment | 07:00 |
| ^Ghost2U | the real pc's are a bigger pain than the virtual ones | 07:01 |
| ^Ghost2U | if you can believe that! | 07:01 |

| luckyed | Hi guys! I need to know how to configure local device access for ltsp clients in Ubuntu 6.10. Anyone knows where to activate this? | 09:35 |
| cbx33 | luckyed: it should be on by default | 09:35 |
| luckyed | Tried but it didn't work. I logged in remotely, plugged in a usb stick, but nothing happened. Also couldn't find any entries in /media or /mnt. Isn't the lts.conf used anymore? | 09:37 |
| cbx33 | hmm.... ogra would know more | 09:41 |
| luckyed | It's weird, cause I found two example lts.conf files, but none that is actually being used | 09:42 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 09:47 |
| cbx33 | I'm not really the best one to ask about it........but I know ogra would know for sure | 09:47 |
| ogra | luckyed, hey ... on a fresh edubuntu 6.10 install the localdev access is enabled by default via /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf | 09:49 |
| === cbx33 was right :D | ||
| ogra | but you need to grant the access rights per user through the gnome user admin guoi or by adding the users to the fuse group | 09:49 |
| highvolt1ge | lguera: pong | 09:49 |
| cbx33 | ahhh.....there ya go | 09:49 |
| === highvolt1ge is now known as highvoltage | ||
| cbx33 | thanks ogra I'll remember that one | 09:50 |
| === mode/#edubuntu [+o highvoltage] by ChanServ | ||
| === mode/#edubuntu [-o highvoltage] by highvoltage | ||
| cbx33 | ogra: I can start testing today if you'd like | 09:50 |
| ogra | i need to document it on the wiki or something, so ubuntu users know what to do | 09:50 |
| cbx33 | ogra: yes like on the Getting Started on the edubuntu homepage | 09:50 |
| ogra | cbx33, any test any time counts ;) | 09:50 |
| cbx33 | ogra: ok dude....here I go | 09:50 |
| cbx33 | did you get my message yesterday | 09:51 |
| cbx33 | about testing the multiple install procedures? | 09:51 |
| ogra | we need to test all procedures in all variations | 09:52 |
| cbx33 | ok | 09:52 |
| ogra | *and the parts i outlined on the mailing list if you have thin client HW | 09:52 |
| cbx33 | ok I'll try | 09:52 |
| ogra | dont forget about /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server/examples/qemu-ltsp ;) | 09:53 |
| luckyed | OK, so I guess I'll just try to copy that sample lts.conf in there, cause there's none yet... | 09:53 |
| ogra | luckyed, thats wrong | 09:53 |
| ogra | are you sure you use 6.10 ? | 09:53 |
| cbx33 | ogra: ok | 09:53 |
| ogra | luckyed, how did you install ? did you by chance use the liveCD which doesnt install ltsp ? | 09:55 |
| luckyed | Yes, I used the live cd, but then installed ltsp-server-standalone and openssh-server and then ran ltsp-client-setup. Ltsp is working great, but there's no lts.conf in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ and when plugging in usb sticks they don't get mounted. | 09:57 |

| ogra | that will give you the edubuntu defaults in ltsp | 10:03 |
| ogra | thats the part the normal installer usually does for you | 10:03 |
| pygi | hi ogra | 10:03 |
| ogra | (which is missing if you install ltsp-server-standalone afterwards) | 10:03 |
| luckyed | I'm just doing it.... | 10:04 |
| ogra | it should tell you about setting ltsp defaults :) | 10:04 |
| luckyed | But after that I still need to add users to the fuse group afterwards? | 10:04 |
| ogra | yep | 10:04 |

| ogra | hmm | 10:10 |
| ogra | ergh | 10:10 |
| ogra | install ltspfs :) | 10:10 |
| ogra | it will do the necessary bits | 10:11 |
| === ogra makes a note to put that in the install instructions | ||
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| luckyed | hmm, installed ltspfs and added the user to group fuse, but it still doesn't work. What about ltspfsd? Do I have to install it, too? | 10:28 |
| ogra | nope | 10:28 |
| ogra | it should be installed in the client environment already, ltsp-build-client does that | 10:29 |
| ogra | did you reboot the client after the edubuntu-artwork stuff ? | 10:29 |
| luckyed | yes | 10:29 |
| ogra | the lts.conf is only read on boot | 10:29 |
| luckyed | Just had a look: ltspfsd isn't installed | 10:30 |
| ogra | hmm | 10:30 |
| ogra | it shouldnt be installed on the server ... but surely in the chroot ... | 10:30 |
| ogra | sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 dpkg -l ltspfsd | 10:31 |

| ogra | right, its there | 10:35 |
| ogra | is the fuse module loaded on the server ? | 10:36 |
| === pips1 [n=philipp@31.150.79.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | (it should have been loaded by the fuse-utilspackage) | 10:38 |
| luckyed | hmm, modprobe fuse on the server gives me back nothing. That means it's installed, right? | 10:40 |
| ogra | lsmod|grep fuse | 10:41 |
| ogra | :) | 10:41 |
| luckyed | OK, it's installed | 10:42 |
| ogra | then it should work ... | 10:43 |
| ogra | you dont use the same user one the server and the client, do you ? | 10:43 |
| luckyed | Nope, it's a different user just created for testing | 10:43 |
| ogra | ok | 10:44 |
| ogra | try: sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 passwd | 10:45 |
| ogra | that will enable the root account on the thin client | 10:45 |
| ogra | then switch to console on the booted client | 10:45 |
| ogra | log inh as root with the password you created | 10:45 |
| ogra | run: ps ax|grep ltspfsd | 10:46 |
| ogra | and check if ltspfsd is running | 10:46 |
| ogra | if thats the case, plug in a device and check if it appears in /var/run/drives | 10:47 |
| luckyed | OK, just a sec... | 10:47 |
| pips1 | hi ogra, do you need anything testing in particular? | 10:54 |
| pips1 | *tested | 10:54 |
| luckyed | OK, I can't login as root on the client. Always says authentication failure. And there's no directory drives in /var/run | 10:56 |
| luckyed | ltspfsd is running on the client, though | 10:56 |
| ogra | how do you know if you cant log in ? | 10:59 |
| ogra | pips1, anything indeed :) | 10:59 |
| luckyed | I did ps ax | grep ltspfsd as user and it showed me the process... | 11:00 |
| ogra | as what user ? | 11:01 |
| luckyed | I slightly remember sth about the root account not being activatable on the client, has that changed? | 11:01 |
| ogra | there are no users on a thin client | 11:01 |
| ogra | the above enabled it | 11:01 |
| luckyed | as the test user that's in the fuse group | 11:01 |
| ogra | if you followed my step by step guide | 11:01 |
| ogra | on the client ? | 11:01 |
| ogra | there is no user on the client and there shouldnt be one | 11:02 |
| ogra | unless you added one (lock that please) | 11:02 |
| luckyed | It's the user account I created on the server to have an account to log in on the client | 11:03 |
| ogra | pips1, https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Testing/Current as always :) | 11:03 |
| ogra | luckyed, ?? | 11:03 |
| ogra | there are no accounts on the clients | 11:03 |
| ogra | the client just runs an X server you never log in *on the client* but on the server *via* the client | 11:04 |
| cbx33 | ogra: just getting iso | 11:04 |
| luckyed | But I have to type a user name and password when I log in on the client, OK? So that's the user I'm talking about | 11:04 |
| ogra | the underlying linux system on the client that runs the X server has no users | 11:04 |
| ogra | (the one you should switch to with alt-f1) | 11:04 |
| luckyed | OK OK, I know that, you know what I meant... | 11:05 |
| ogra | ok | 11:05 |
| ogra | the sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 passwd should have asked you for a password (at least twice) | 11:05 |
| highvoltage | ogra: it's best to test with a daily build, right? | 11:06 |
| ogra | use "root" for log in and the password you gave for the above command | 11:06 |
| ogra | highvoltage, best with the most recent, yes | 11:06 |
| highvoltage | ok thanks | 11:06 |
| ogra | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily/ | 11:06 |
| luckyed | Yes it has. I have typed a password twice, it was accepted, but when I try to log in as root via the client it's not accepted as viable password | 11:06 |
| ogra | and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily-live/ | 11:06 |
| pips1 | highvoltage: good question, I was about to ask that :-) | 11:06 |
| ogra | dont use the "current" link, iuf a rebuild is done it might get updated in teh middle of your download | 11:07 |
| ogra | luckyed, but you switched to console, right ? | 11:07 |
| highvoltage | ooh, ok | 11:08 |
| === cbx33 never uses the current link | ||
| ogra | well, if you test nightlies, the current link is fine | 11:10 |
| ogra | just not 24h before a release :) since we rebuild them often then :) | 11:10 |
| pips1 | ogra: what happens if use rysnc and it gets rebuilt in the middle? is that a problem? | 11:10 |
| luckyed | I guess the reason I can't log in as root via the console is that this should be disabled. I remember that was the case with ltsp4.2... | 11:11 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 11:11 |
| ogra | it is disabled through the locked password which you unlocked with the above command | 11:11 |
| luckyed | On the 1st console I saw a message notifying me that a device sda has been plugged in. Not visible anywhere, though... | 11:12 |
| ogra | thats a good sign, so the HW side should eb ok | 11:12 |
| ogra | *be | 11:12 |
| ogra | can you check that the right lts.conf is in place ? | 11:14 |
| ogra | [default] | 11:14 |
| ogra | X_COLOR_DEPTH=16 | 11:14 |
| ogra | LOCALDEV=True | 11:14 |
| ogra | SOUND=True | 11:14 |
| ogra | NBD_SWAP=True | 11:14 |
| ogra | that would be the default lts.conf edubuntu-artwork installs in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf | 11:14 |
| ogra | (only if you didnt add one manually already) | 11:14 |
| luckyed | I have that same lts.conf, but at the end there's another line SYSLOG_HOST=server | 11:18 |
| ogra | oh, right | 11:20 |

| ogra | /media/$USER/<devicename> | 11:37 |
| luckyed | But it still doesn't get mounted... :( | 11:38 |
| ogra | but it will also show up on your desktop and in the places menu ... as well as on the left side in nautilus | 11:38 |
| === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| luckyed | it doesn't :( | 11:42 |
| luckyed | OK, so again these are the steps I took, perhaps you can see sth essential missing: 1. Installed Edubuntu via the live cd 2. Installed ltsp-server-standalone and openssh-server 3. sudo ltsp-build-client 4. Adjusted IP settings in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf 5. ltsp-update-sshkeys 6. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical edubuntu-artwork 7. sudo aptitude install ltspfs 8. adduser test fuse Did I forget anything??? | 11:47 |
| ogra | not that i'm aware of | 11:49 |
| ogra | if you run the command fusermount as test, what do you get ? | 11:52 |
| ogra | s/as test/as the user test/ | 11:53 |
| luckyed | fusermount as test gives me: "missing mountpoint argument" | 11:55 |
| ogra | ok, test is allowed to use fuse | 11:56 |
| ogra | so the group addition is fine | 11:56 |
| luckyed | But what could be missing, then? | 12:06 |
| === fdoving [n=frode@ubuntu/member/frode] has left #edubuntu [] | ||
| luckyed | OK, did a stupid mistake: ltsp is currently using english keyboard layout and that was the reason why I couldn't log in as root. My password's different on a German keyboard.... :( But now I looked in /var/run/drives as root and found a usbdisk-sda listed there! Yippieh! So now my only prob is: How do I get this stick mounted? | 12:26 |
| ogra | well, it got mounted (literally) but the communication between desktop and client seems not to work | 12:27 |
| ogra | add | 12:27 |
| ogra | XKBLAYOUT=de | 12:27 |
| ogra | XKBVARIANT=nodeadkeys | 12:27 |
| ogra | to your lts.conf btw | 12:28 |
| ogra | thats what i use here | 12:28 |
| luckyed | done. | 12:29 |
| luckyed | Is it maybe possible to mount that stick manually after it's discovered. The file in /var/run/drives is sth like a device file in /dev or am I missing sth? Then I could maybe mount it with an ordinary mount? | 12:30 |
| ogra | hmm, the only thing i can imagine would be to reboot the server, but that wuld likely only work around the preoblem if it works | 12:30 |
| luckyed | Or, to say it more clearly. How does a drive get mounted once it appeared in /var/run/drives? With fusermount? Maybe I could try and find the missing part if I only knew where about to look... | 12:31 |
| ogra | nope | 12:31 |
| ogra | it gets mounted by udev which then triggers the mount in the users session on the server | 12:32 |
| luckyed | Hmm, when I try to start the gnome user admin gui, it crashes and a bug report opens immediately. Maybe there's some connection here? | 12:33 |
| ogra | hmm | 12:34 |

| ogra | works here | 12:35 |
| ogra | you did only run "adduser test fuse" before ? and didnt fiddle with /etc/group or something ? | 12:35 |
| luckyed | no, I just removed the self-created group fuse before I installed ltspfs, but after that I just used adduser test fuse | 12:36 |
| ogra | oh | 12:36 |
| ogra | how did you remove it ? with delgroup ? | 12:37 |
| luckyed | yep | 12:38 |
| ogra | hmm, but something there seems to have gone wrong if your gui doesnt start | 12:38 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser [n=kgoetz@easyubuntu/docteam/kgoetz] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| cbx33 | do you want me to do those now or lateR? | 12:43 |
| cbx33 | what is more crucial | 12:43 |
| cbx33 | and do you have that link to the LTSP testing bits | 12:43 |
| ogra | i'll do them anyway ... knowing that the basic install didnt fail is already worth a lot, just go on :) | 12:43 |

| pips1 | ogra: just to make sure, do you really want me to add that whole huge table of download mirrors from http://www.ubuntu.com/download to http://www.edubuntu.com/Download ?! I would need to replace anything to make it Edubuntu-specific, or can I duplicate those links? | 01:08 |
| luckyed | ogra: Thanks a looooot for your help! Rebooted the server and now it works! Also the user-admin-gui works . Obviously messed sth up with the addgroup fuse...But now there's one more point: I tried to create a folder on the usbdisk and then logged out, took out the stick and checked if the folder is still there (by plugging it in the server), but it wasn't. I read about this problem and reckon it has sth to do with the stick actually being mounted in a tem | 01:08 |
| pips1 | ogra: I don't think it makes sense to duplicate content that is maintained in one place, if it can be avoided... in this case it might be better to just link to the ubuntu download page, no? | 01:10 |

| cbx33 | dude you rock | 02:11 |
| ogra | in the new sound handling stuff | 02:11 |
| ogra | please attach that to the bug | 02:11 |
| luckyed | ogra: Do the local devices usually get unmounted when the user signs off? Cause I tried that and yet sth I wrote on the stick previously wasn't saved there... | 02:19 |
| ogra | luckyed, it unmounts two seconds after the4 last data was transferred | 02:20 |
| ogra | (automatically) | 02:20 |
| ogra | so either you pulled it out while it was still writing or you dont have write permissions | 02:20 |
| luckyed | OK, sounds good, but you don't know when a data transfer is finished, so those 2 secs are probably a bit too short for plugging out. | 02:22 |
| luckyed | I'm just installing Ubuntu 6.10 on another pc and will go through all those steps again just for testing. Having 15 clients with unused harddrives improves possibilities.... :) | 02:23 |
| luckyed | And once 6.10 Final is out, that means migrating the server...uh*oh* | 02:24 |

| ogra | oh, ubuntu with 4.2 to edubuntu with ltsp 5 wont work ... | 02:33 |

| === Kamping_Kaiser [n=kgoetz@easyubuntu/docteam/kgoetz] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| === ubotu [n=ubotu@ubuntu/bot/ubotu] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| highvoltage | well, normally it's just a tarball that extracted, so rm -Rf /opt/ltsp-4.2 would probably suffice :) | 02:37 |
| highvoltage | oh, and it installs an lts directory in /var/lib/tftpboot (or just /tftpboot), but that doesn't bother ubuntu ltsp. | 02:37 |
| ogra | highvoltage, right, i mean the changes it does to dhcp tftp etc | 02:38 |
| highvoltage | and the dhcpd settings wouldn't be a problem either since ltsp would use /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf :) | 02:38 |
| ogra | but it needs testing :) | 02:38 |
| highvoltage | ah, of course! | 02:39 |
| luckyed | OK, so I'll use the Edubuntu then. About uninstalling 4.2: I installed it (as far as I remember) following the ltspguide.pfd. Wouldn't it be enough to just uninstall the packets used there? That is, dhcp3-server, dhcp3-common, dhcp3-dev, tftpd-hpa, nfs-kernel-server, xinetd and libwww-perl. If the dhcp3-server is installed again with the ltsp-server-standalone, this should be working, I guess... | 02:39 |
| ogra | and proper documentation for people wanting to switch | 02:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hi ogra :) | 02:39 |
| ogra | well, our ltsp uses dhcpd as well :) | 02:40 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | :) | 02:40 |
| ogra | luckyed, xinetd is surely something you dont want in ubuntus ltsp | 02:41 |
| ogra | libwww-perl isnt used anywhere ... you can leave it or drop it | 02:41 |
| ogra | dhcp3-server and nfs-kernel-server are used ... | 02:42 |

| RichEd | Actions: | 04:32 |
| RichEd | * Engage the Ubuntu Education community to identify 10 most desired desktop features | 04:32 |

| pips1 | sbalneav: I'm trying to debug this fresh server install... thin client fails at pxe dhcp discovery stage. I seems that my second NIC wasn't configured. which is strange, because I tested this with the exact same hardware with a daily 5 days ago and everything worked. | 06:26 |

| sbalneav | ^Ghost2U: Can you paste your /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file to the pastebin? | 06:28 |
| sbalneav | !pastebin | 06:28 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things) | 06:28 |
| sbalneav | pips1: second nic on the thin client, or on the server? | 06:28 |
| pips1 | on the server | 06:28 |
| sbalneav | If it's the server, you'll have to adjust your dhcpd.conf file in /etc/ltsp. | 06:28 |
| pips1 | but it's supposed to work out-of-the-box ?! | 06:29 |

| pips1 | oh | 06:39 |
| pips1 | erm, sbalneav http://paste.linux-vserver.org/505 for ifconfig | 06:41 |
| sbalneav | That's eth1, what's eth0? | 06:42 |
| sbalneav | Not a 192.168.0.xx address, I hope :) | 06:42 |
| pips1 | that's the problem eth0 doesn't show up anywhere, although the NIC is recognised in lspci | 06:42 |
| sbalneav | Did it recognize during install? | 06:43 |
| pips1 | , sbalneav http://paste.linux-vserver.org/506 for dhcpd.conf | 06:43 |
| pips1 | yes it did, I was shown the "choose primary network interface" question | 06:43 |
| sbalneav | Sounds like an installer bug. | 06:44 |
| pips1 | yes.. I was just wondering.. since it all worked 5 days ago | 06:44 |
| sbalneav | What's your primary interface? i.e. your backbone address. | 06:44 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco: did you have a chance to test the latest daily? | 06:45 |
| sbalneav | Maybe we're running into a "My backbone's 192.168.0.xx, and I want to configure the ltsp interface as 192.168.0.xx, so things get borked" issue. | 06:45 |
| pips1 | sbalneav: do you mean my router's ip range? | 06:46 |

| === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| sbalneav | Hmm, should be ok then. | 06:46 |
| sbalneav | I'd say it's an installer bug. | 06:46 |
| pips1 | yeah, really strange | 06:46 |
| pips1 | right | 06:46 |
| pips1 | I just wish I could confirm this with someone who has just installed the latest daily... | 06:47 |
| sbalneav | I could install it again tonight. It worked ok for me a few days ago. | 06:47 |
| pips1 | cbx33: are you testing the latest daily? | 06:47 |
| cbx33 | pips1, what's up? | 06:48 |
| cbx33 | I can get it and test if you want | 06:48 |

| jsgotangco | pips1: i haven't its in my todo list for tomorrow pre-RC though | 06:48 |
| pips1 | cbx33: well, I just did a fresh server install and the second NIC isn't configured so I can't have thin clients at all | 06:49 |

| pawman | hi there, Does anyone know a good program to run over a LAN to chat and use whiteboard that does not go over the internet or though this could be an external option | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | nixternal, they don't show | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | the directories are changed I think | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | is that all I need tochange? | 07:01 |
| nixternal | hmm | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | or is it fixed upon make? | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | do we even make..? | 07:01 |
| nixternal | ya we make | 07:01 |
| cbx33 | thought so | 07:01 |
| nixternal | it should be fixed in the make...i will take a look at it here in a second | 07:02 |

| pawman | mmm | 07:02 |
| cbx33 | pawman, hmm... | 07:03 |
| cbx33 | does jabber do whiteboard? | 07:03 |
| pawman | not sure | 07:03 |
| pips1 | highvoltage: ogra asked me to update the edubuntu.org/Download page with a table for all the mirrors by country... Now, I can copy paste the table from ubuntu.com, but I'll need to adjust all links to go to the edubuntu subdir... can you possibly help me out with a little bit of 'sed' magic or smth? | 07:04 |
| pips1 | any sed and awk experts around? :) | 07:05 |
| cbx33 | not an expert but what can i do to help | 07:05 |
| cbx33 | what's the input and desired output | 07:05 |
| highvoltage | pips1: in cases like these I just copy and paste it into gedit and do a simple search and replace :) | 07:05 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 07:06 |
| cbx33 | good call highvoltage | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | pips1: sed is a bit overkill :) | 07:06 |
| pips1 | well, I need to figure it out exactly, but I think we'll need to add / change the path of all links | 07:06 |
| cbx33 | sed rawks | 07:06 |
| pawman | can jabber run only in an internal network? | 07:06 |
| cbx33 | pips1, mind if I take a look?# | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | pawman: if you want it to | 07:06 |
| cbx33 | pawman, I think you can setup your own internal servers | 07:06 |
| pawman | Instant messaging will work | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | pawman: yes | 07:06 |
| cbx33 | if you just want a central admin to message someone then Student Control Panel does that in edubutnu in edgy | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | pawman: by default a jabber server doesn't talk to other jabber servers | 07:06 |
| pawman | Wow cool! Do I just download it and put it on the server | 07:07 |
| pips1 | cbx33: well, ogra basically wants this http://www.ubuntu.com/download but with links to the according edubuntu dirs... | 07:07 |
| cbx33 | ahhh | 07:08 |
| pawman | or Does jabber just use SIP | 07:08 |
| pips1 | cbx33: however, I'm not familiar with the directory structure on the mirrors. Are they all standardised? they should be, right? | 07:09 |
| cbx33 | no that's what I was thinking | 07:09 |
| cbx33 | do they all have edubuntu | 07:09 |
| === pips1 checks a few random mirror examples | ||

| cbx33 | pawman, I've no idea | 07:11 |
| cbx33 | try #jabber | 07:11 |
| pips1 | cbx33: not sure if I got you there... | 07:11 |
| cbx33 | pips1, http://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/ubuntu.iso/edubuntu/ | 07:11 |
| cbx33 | replace the 6.06 with edubuntu | 07:12 |
| pawman | thanks | 07:12 |
| cbx33 | pips1, make sense now? | 07:13 |
| pips1 | I'm not sure if this works for all mirrors, I just checked this one and it works rather differently? http://planetmirror.com/pub/ubuntu/releases/6.06/ | 07:13 |
| cbx33 | pips1, no it's the same | 07:13 |
| cbx33 | goto http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/ubuntu/releases/ | 07:13 |
| cbx33 | into the parent | 07:14 |
| cbx33 | and you'll see edubuntu | 07:14 |
| pips1 | ah, you need to add the /edbuntu/ in-between the /releases/ and /6.06.1/ | 07:14 |
| cbx33 | try doing a find/replace on the code for 6.06/ to edubuntu/6.06/ | 07:14 |
| cbx33 | yes | 07:14 |

| sbalneav | Because re-training muscle memory is a pain. | 07:45 |

| sbalneav | ! | 07:50 |
| sbalneav | Foo | 07:50 |
| sbalneav | I know there was a spec for "tab unification", i.e. make tabs behave the same in all applications. What would be REALLY nice would be if there was a setting in the control panel somewhere, where you could say: [ ] individual close button [ ] single close on left [X] single close on right. | 07:52 |
| sbalneav | Then all tab interfaces would conform to that. | 07:52 |

| Amaranth | have what unified? | 07:59 |
| sbalneav | pips1: That's what I was thinking: any gnome-aware app would treat tabs the same way. | 07:59 |
| pips1 | Amaranth: <sbalneav> Does anyone know a way to coerce firefox into changing the "close tab" button back to one on the right hand side, as opposed to a close tab button on each tab? | 08:00 |
| Amaranth | ah | 08:00 |
| === Amaranth likes it on each tab | ||
| Amaranth | there is an epiphany plugin that makes it have it like firefox used to | 08:01 |
| Amaranth | it makes the tabs shrink instead of having a scrollbar too | 08:01 |
| Amaranth | but it doesn't set a maximum size so unless you have a bunch of tabs open it looks weird | 08:01 |

| highvoltage | pips1: ok then I'll definately check, because if it does that it will probably do it in Ubuntu too, which sounds like a bit of a serious bug | 09:06 |
| pips1 | ^^^^ but the bug I encounter actually doesn't configure the second NIC as it did in the daily build 5 days ago :-/ | 09:07 |
| pips1 | ok, great | 09:08 |
| pips1 | I'll write ogra a short email about my finding, and I will also remark that you'll also test this.. | 09:09 |
| pips1 | oh, and what is my @edubuntu.org email address? what is used as the name before the @? Is it the wiki name? or philipp or what? | 09:11 |
| highvoltage | launchpad name | 09:12 |
| highvoltage | so in your case, philipp-din15@edubuntu.org | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | but I think you can ask on #launchpad that they change that for you | 09:13 |
| pips1 | but what is the launchpad name? ah. that's a bit bizarre | 09:13 |
| pips1 | oh, I can simply change my launchpad name?! | 09:14 |
| highvoltage | I don't know. | 09:15 |
| highvoltage | I think even if you change it now, it will take the lp name you had whn you were added to the tem | 09:15 |
| pips1 | I'll try to change the LP name and see what happens | 09:16 |
| pips1 | ah, my name is already taken | 09:17 |
| cbx33 | pips1, use www.dnsstuff.com at the bottom to check if your mailbox exists | 09:20 |
| pips1 | cbx33: oh, that's useful. thanks! | 09:23 |

| pips1 | hmm, my mail bounced | 09:27 |
| BonBonTheJon | i found an error in the handbook, how do i fix it | 09:27 |
| pips1 | good question, how is that ^^^^ currently handled? HedgeMage? nixternal? | 09:30 |
| nixternal | you can grab the svn checkout, locate the file with the error, fix it, and email me a patch if you would like, or you can point out the error, and i can fix it quickly is possible | 09:30 |
| pips1 | BonBonTheJon: they aren't currently here.. I think you need to join the documentation team to get access to the svn repository... not sure | 09:30 |
| BonBonTheJon | thanks pips1 | 09:31 |
| pips1 | ah | 09:31 |
| nixternal | hehe | 09:31 |
| pips1 | thanks nixternal | 09:31 |
| nixternal | no problem | 09:31 |
| BonBonTheJon | nixternal: oh, sorry, i didnt see yours since you didnt say my name | 09:32 |
| nixternal | my apologies on that one | 09:32 |
| stelis | nixternal: Hi | 09:32 |
| nixternal | hi stelis | 09:33 |
| BonBonTheJon | nixternal: in Why Edubuntu?, in Compatible, halfway there is a ? in front of OpenOffice | 09:33 |
| stelis | Can I ask a couple of question about DocBook entities? | 09:33 |
| nixternal | sure | 09:33 |
| pips1 | ack, all my test emails are bouncing back.. | 09:33 |
| nixternal | bouncing back from lists? | 09:33 |
| stelis | Cheers. I've poking around and the libs/edubuntu.ent file seems to have obsolete entities | 09:34 |
| stelis | It specifies Breezy Badger | 09:34 |
| nixternal | ooh, good eye | 09:34 |
| nixternal | i will gix that asap | 09:35 |
| BonBonTheJon | nixternal: did you get mine too | 09:35 |
| stelis | It is the main place for custom entities, then? | 09:35 |
| pips1 | nixternal: no, I'm trying to figure out what my new @edubuntu.org mail address is :-) | 09:35 |
| nixternal | i will fix that too ;) | 09:35 |
| nixternal | pips1: did you just get membership today? | 09:36 |
| pips1 | yep | 09:36 |
| nixternal | congrats! | 09:36 |
| pips1 | ta! | 09:36 |
| pips1 | :) | 09:36 |
| nixternal | anywho, you need to give it a few days for it to kick in | 09:36 |
| pips1 | right | 09:36 |
| nixternal | there is a script that will run and create the account for your automagically | 09:36 |
| === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| nixternal | you can test it later today, or again tomorrow, and just keep and eye out on it | 09:37 |
| pips1 | do you happen to know if changing my launchpad name will change my email address too? | 09:37 |
| nixternal | that i don't know about | 09:37 |
| pips1 | I'll ask in #launchpad then.. | 09:37 |
| nixternal | need to check with one of the admins many...i don't know, but maybe newz2000 would be able to answer that one | 09:37 |
| nixternal | ya | 09:37 |
| nixternal | or #launchpad | 09:37 |
| stelis | nixternal: I was also going ask about a new entity for the title of the Hand Book itself (if there isn't one already) | 09:38 |
| nixternal | well, the reason we wouldn't create an entity for the title, is because Handbook can be translated, and if we make it an entity, then it would skip translation | 09:39 |
| stelis | Hmm | 09:39 |
| stelis | So I'd probably be better saying "this document" | 09:39 |
| stelis | Rather than referring to the title | 09:40 |
| nixternal | this document, or this handbook, yes..that will be fine | 09:40 |
| stelis | OK, thanks | 09:41 |
| BonBonTheJon | is the dhcp client really called ipconfig | 09:42 |
| stelis | That's just a utility | 09:42 |
| nixternal | nope | 09:42 |
| BonBonTheJon | not to be confused with ifconfig? | 09:42 |
| nixternal | errr. | 09:43 |
| nixternal | i just caught that | 09:43 |
| sbalneav | It is called ipconfig. | 09:43 |
| BonBonTheJon | ok | 09:43 |
| nixternal | ya, i was thinking ifconfig | 09:43 |
| nixternal | ;) | 09:43 |
| sbalneav | I ripped apart the initramfs and checked. | 09:43 |
| BonBonTheJon | ok, thank sbalneav | 09:44 |
| sbalneav | Anyone who's looking at the handbook, should svn update. I've been committing changes all day. | 09:44 |
| sbalneav | at 35 here at my end currently. | 09:45 |
| stelis | sbalneav: Thanks | 09:45 |
| BonBonTheJon | sbalneav: if i find errors, how do i submit changes | 09:45 |
| sbalneav | Well, you'd either have to email one of us, or ask HedgeMage to set you up an account on the svn archive. | 09:46 |
| BonBonTheJon | sbalneav: who should I email | 09:47 |
| sbalneav | HedgeMage | 09:47 |
| BonBonTheJon | ok, whats the address | 09:48 |
| sbalneav | Don't know. She's on LP, so you could hunt for it there. | 09:49 |
| nixternal | sbalneav: it is at 36 now ;) | 09:49 |
| sbalneav | So it is. | 09:50 |
| ogra | cbx33: hmm, you didnt file the bug about the failed logins on first attempt yet | 09:51 |
| pygi | BonBonTheJon: how may I help you? | 09:52 |
| ogra | cbx33: could you do so, so i can mark it critical enough to be fixed before release ? | 09:52 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: what should I do about errors I find | 09:52 |
| ogra | (with the error from .xsession-errors if possible) | 09:52 |
| pygi | BonBonTheJon: submit a diff to me for example :P | 09:52 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: and I could write a rough draft for the networking overview | 09:53 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: how do i do that | 09:53 |
| pygi | BonBonTheJon: just write it in pure text, and mail it to me | 09:53 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: address | 09:53 |
| pygi | mario dot danic at gmail dot com | 09:54 |
| pips1 | ogra: it looks as if there is a new bug.. my second NIC did get configured during install.. | 09:54 |
| pips1 | *didn't | 09:54 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: and how do I do a diff | 09:54 |
| ogra | pips1: hmm | 09:54 |
| pygi | BonBonTheJon: uh, just send me what needs changing :) | 09:54 |
| BonBonTheJon | pygi: ok | 09:54 |
| ogra | all my install testes were fine so far here, what kind of NIC ? | 09:54 |
| pips1 | it's an old 3com NIC, it worked fine with the daily build 5 days ago... | 09:55 |
| ogra | well, nothing changed in the code | 09:55 |
| ogra | not the last days | 09:55 |
| pips1 | how strange. | 09:56 |
| pips1 | (oh, rather, the NIC is a netgear FA311.) | 09:56 |
| ogra | yep | 09:56 |
| ogra | should work as well | 09:56 |
| ogra | but the other NIC is configured fine ? | 09:57 |
| pips1 | my first hunch was also that there's a problem with the hardware, cabling... or stm | 09:57 |
| pips1 | h | 09:57 |
| pips1 | hmm | 09:57 |
| ogra | that doesnt matter | 09:57 |
| ogra | the code only checks /proc/net/dev | 09:57 |
| ogra | where every interface the kernel sees should be listed | 09:58 |
| pips1 | yes, the first interface is fine. I can surf the web ok | 09:58 |
| === LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | and its really not configured or is it only not started ? | 09:58 |
| ogra | (is there any trace of it in /etc/network/interfaces ?) | 09:59 |
| === pips1 checks | ||
| pips1 | no mention of eth0 there at all | 09:59 |
| LaserJock | wahoo! I got Edubuntu on my intel iMac | 10:00 |
| ogra | did you have both for selection at the start of the install ? | 10:00 |
| pips1 | I chose eth1 as the primary interface during install | 10:00 |
| pips1 | yes | 10:00 |
| ogra | hmm | 10:00 |
| pips1 | the nic also shows up on lspci ok | 10:00 |
| ogra | are you sure you did a default install ? | 10:00 |
| pips1 | yes | 10:00 |
| ogra | not a workstation or something ? | 10:00 |
| pips1 | I even redid the install a second time | 10:00 |
| ogra | which arch ? | 10:00 |
| pips1 | amd64 | 10:01 |
| ogra | hmm, i just tested amd64 before | 10:01 |
| ogra | worked fine, i even tried out an i386 chroot with teh default ltsp setup that was installed | 10:01 |
| pips1 | I asked highvoltage to try to verify this when he tests later.. | 10:01 |
| ogra | but i test with an orinoco wlan card and a realtek gigE card ... | 10:02 |
| pips1 | I'm using the onboard nForce3 gigabit nic and the said netgear FA311 pci NIC | 10:03 |
| ogra | and the nforce works ? | 10:04 |
| pips1 | but as mentioned before, it worked like a charm with the daily build from a few days ago.. | 10:04 |
| ogra | the only thinng i can imagine here is the kernel has changed | 10:04 |
| pips1 | right | 10:04 |
| ogra | could you try flipping teh interfaces and see if the 3com works at all ? | 10:04 |
| pips1 | worth a try | 10:04 |
| pips1 | erm, how do I flip the interfaces? | 10:05 |
| stelis | BonBonTheJon: Were you talking about the "Networks and Networking" section? | 10:05 |
| ogra | edit /etc/network/interfaces :) | 10:05 |
| ogra | change eth1 to eth0 | 10:05 |
| stelis | I've just started to write to it :) | 10:05 |
| pips1 | heh | 10:06 |
| ogra | oh, and befgore ifdown eth1 | 10:06 |
| ogra | else you cant bring it down if it doesnt exist in the file | 10:06 |
| BonBonTheJon | stelis: yeah, "Basic Concepts: Networks and Networking" | 10:06 |
| stelis | OK. Can you read DocBook at all? | 10:06 |
| stelis | I can post the snippet I've got so far on a server | 10:07 |

| stelis | See if you want to develop it | 10:07 |
| stelis | Sorry - DocBook is the file format | 10:07 |
| BonBonTheJon | stelis: it doesn't matter, I was just offering, trying to fill in some holes | 10:07 |
| pips1 | ogra: after changing eth1 to eth0, I tried ifup eth0 and I got "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"" | 10:08 |
| ogra | aha | 10:08 |
| stelis | BonBonTheJon: Not at all - please do | 10:08 |
| stelis | Hold on and I'll post something readable | 10:09 |

| nixternal | well, these are the Kubuntu release notes, which thank god, haven't changed to much since beta | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | they cannot both share a 256 colour palette | 10:21 |

| stelis | BonBon: I'll update the pastebin before I finish, so that you've got the latest | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | it can't have the same pallete as the 256 colour ones | 10:23 |
| Seveas | cbx33, correct | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | ok | 10:23 |
| Seveas | it needs a 16-color palette | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | only curious | 10:24 |
| Seveas | cbx33, and for the sake of yourown sanity: son't use a .png progressbar on the 16-color theme | 10:24 |
| cbx33 | what should I use? | 10:24 |
| cbx33 | I'm just gonna supply ogra with the base image? | 10:24 |
| Seveas | just specify 2 colors in the theme to draw a simple progress bar | 10:24 |
| Seveas | ogra, btw: I finally received the usplash artwork in usable form | 10:25 |
| cbx33 | ogra, 16 colour doesn't look bad as it is | 10:25 |
| cbx33 | are you sure want the black background? | 10:25 |
| Seveas | if you need something done for the edubuntu splash, let me know and I'll do it first thing tomorrow | 10:25 |

| LaserJock | wow, there sure are a lot of governance and community specs for UDSMV | 12:02 |
| pygi | LaserJock: I'm still not sure mine specs will ever be accepted since I dont go to UDS :( | 12:03 |
| pygi | and they are all kinda important | 12:03 |
| LaserJock | well then I'm sure they'll be there :-) | 12:03 |

| pygi | LaserJock: basicly we lost a lot of specs :( | 12:12 |
| LaserJock | why? | 12:12 |
| pygi | well, 'cause they won't be discussed | 12:13 |
| pygi | and some of them are not really trivial | 12:13 |
| LaserJock | why are we losing specs though | 12:13 |
| LaserJock | we discuss what we can | 12:13 |
| LaserJock | and do the rest when we can :-) | 12:13 |
