[01:09] <LaserJock> ogra: I saw something interesting today
[01:09] <LaserJock> in my home state there is somebody who is taking donated computers
[01:09] <ogra> oh
[01:09] <LaserJock> and putting a stripped down Edubuntu on them
[01:10] <LaserJock> and giving them to kids for free
[01:10] <ogra> cool !!
[01:10] <LaserJock> he takes off OO.o and uses IceWM
[01:10] <LaserJock> I think because the computers are so old
[01:10] <cliebow>   abiword is functional
[01:10] <LaserJock> yeah, that's what he uses
[01:11] <ogra> yep
[01:11] <ogra> sounds great 
[01:11] <LaserJock> but he starts from the Edubuntu .iso
[01:11] <LaserJock> and has a link to the Edubuntu wiki on his site
[01:11] <ogra> sadly xfce isnt supported by canonical ... thats what kept me from pulling it on the CD yet ...
[01:11] <LaserJock> anyway, I thought it was crazy that it was my home state
[01:11] <LaserJock> I didn't know there were even people using Linux there ;-)
[01:12] <ogra> but its a good candidate for the add-on CD
[01:12] <LaserJock> yeah
[01:14] <LaserJock> how long is the conf?
[01:14] <ogra> its over
[01:15] <LaserJock> oh ok
[01:15] <LaserJock> it was good?
[01:15] <LaserJock> technically
[01:15] <ogra> Rich flies out tomorrow at 12 .... i didnt get a flight back before monday 5:40 am
[01:15] <ogra> yep
[01:16] <ogra> we switched all these windows peple to edubuntu ... and i'll be the tech lead for the euro linux project ... we'll just need to talk to mark how much involvement we want ;)
[01:16] <LaserJock> awesome
[01:16] <ogra> (and how much time i hav to actually do it)
[01:16] <LaserJock> yeah
[01:17] <LaserJock> you're spread pretty thing
[01:17] <LaserJock> *thin
[01:17] <ogra> RichEd and me make a good team to switch people over ...
[01:17] <ogra> was a nice experience :)
[01:18] <LaserJock> way cool
[01:18] <LaserJock> we had a pretty good meeting even though our 2 stars were gone
[01:18] <ogra> well there will be money involved, so i can look for a lead developer i can lead or something .... depending on te company decision ...
[01:19] <LaserJock> that would be nice
[01:19] <ogra> canonical will be responsible, so i'm not sure how much they want to invest
[01:19] <LaserJock> yeah
[01:19] <ogra> but it will bring us a new moodle ;)
[01:20] <LaserJock> oh really?
[01:20] <ogra> with a lot enhancements
[01:20] <ogra> well, it will still be moodle, but improved
[01:20] <LaserJock> I've been thinking of things to do with the 2nd CD
[01:20] <LaserJock> having a better moodle on there would be good I think
[01:21] <ogra> first moodle must get to main ...
[01:21] <LaserJock> yeah :/
[01:21] <ogra> the 2nd CD wont change the requirements
[01:21] <LaserJock> I've seen some info on the security history of moodle
[01:21] <ogra> *shudder*
[01:21] <LaserJock> hopefully they've gotten it better
[01:22] <ogra> they ?
[01:22] <LaserJock> but I haven't looked at it for over a year
[01:22] <LaserJock> moodle
[01:22] <ogra> ah, right ...
[01:22] <ogra> its at least finally utf8 capable ...
[01:22] <LaserJock> that's nice ;-)
[01:22] <ogra> anyway, i need to be silent, i think RichEd needs the one hour of sleep he has ....
[01:23] <LaserJock> took a look a little at the debian-edu package groups
[01:23] <LaserJock> yeah, sorry
[04:32] <littlepaul> hi
[04:32] <littlepaul> how is the sound for thinclients (technical background) implemented in ltsp?  last year ogra told something about gstreamer implementation over alsa pipa over ssh tunneling
[04:40] <stgraber> If I'm not wrong, there is an ESD daemon running on all the thin client and the sound is just forwarded to them from the server (using a SSH tunnel)
[04:42] <littlepaul> thx for answering; meanwhile I read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyPlusOneThinclientSound and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinClientAudioSupport
[05:59] <ogra> Seveas, any idea where the topics went ?
[06:00] <Seveas> ogra, /dev/null
[06:00] <ogra> es, i saw that, but why ? the logs dont indicate anything
[06:00] <ogra> *yes
[06:00] <Seveas> freenode was attacked and went down
[06:00] <ogra> ah, k
[06:01] <ogra> wow, thanks ...
[06:01] <ogra> i was digging for the old text but had nothing in my logs
[06:01] <Seveas> grep Topic .xchat2/xchatlogs/*edubuntu.log ;)
[06:02] <ogra> ogra@edubuntu:~$ grep Topic .xchat2/xchatlogs/*edubuntu.log
[06:02] <ogra> grep: .xchat2/xchatlogs/*edubuntu.log: No such file or directory
[06:02] <ogra> no local logging here ;) i need the diskspace for gcompris updates :P
[06:02] <Seveas> heh
[06:02] <Seveas> I rm -rf the logs every few months
[06:03] <Seveas> when they reach 800-900 mb
[06:03] <ogra> phew ...
[07:25] <cliebow> thta must be THE seveas!!!
[07:25] <rockprincess> howdy all!
[11:14] <Dheeraj_k> gnome is crashing when i am changing its theme :(
[11:24] <LaserJock> Dheeraj_k: that's not fun :/

[11:30] <Dheeraj_k> its 6.06
[11:31] <LaserJock> hmm, I think 6.06 might have had that feature
[11:31] <Dheeraj_k> well than why it is crashing?
[11:33] <LaserJock> did it just crash when you ran that?
[11:35] <Dheeraj_k> i got the theme option which 1 i should select?
