Dante123 | what are minimum requirements in terms of CPU, RAM, and HD space to run edubuntu well..... | 12:55 |
---|---|---|
LaserJock | Dante123: for an LTSP setup? | 12:55 |
Dante123 | what does ltsp stand for.....exactly...... | 01:26 |
LaserJock | Linux Terminal Server Project | 01:29 |
Dante123 | yes, i want to do that kind of install..... | 01:30 |
LaserJock | how many clients will be connected to the server? | 01:31 |

Dante123 | likely 5 or so computers | 01:54 |
LaserJock | well, probably at least 500MHz CPU, 1GB RAM, HD would be whatever you think people would use | 01:55 |
Dante123 | what kind of cpu.....pentium 3 okay....?? | 02:01 |
LaserJock | perhaps | 02:01 |
LaserJock | I mean, it kinda depends on what you'll be running | 02:01 |
LaserJock | and how well you want it to run | 02:01 |
LaserJock | oh wait, maybe it's 1 GHz that you need | 02:02 |
LaserJock | let me go see if I can find the official minimum requirements | 02:02 |
LaserJock | Dante123: http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/handbook/C/ltsp-hw.html | 02:06 |
LaserJock | Dante123: I think maybe I told you a lie about 500MHz | 02:07 |
Dante123 | so what is the truth?? | 02:07 |
LaserJock | well, it says 2GHz is good for 20 people | 02:07 |
LaserJock | I think probably 1GHz might be ok for 5 but it would really depend on what they are running | 02:08 |
LaserJock | thinks that are graphics intensive could be problems | 02:08 |
LaserJock | *things | 02:08 |
LaserJock | sorry about that, I've never actually run an LTSP server. | 02:10 |

Dante123 | hi....what are the minimum requirements for edubuntu or xubuntu as a desktop install??? | 02:15 |
Dante123 | I have a pentium II....192 megs ram........3g partition......can it run either one decently....for browsing web etc.??? | 02:15 |
LaserJock | yeah, they will probably run | 02:21 |
LaserJock | how fast is the pentium II? | 02:21 |
Dante123 | 350 mhz | 02:22 |
LaserJock | I think I would recommend Xubuntu for that one | 02:22 |
Dante123 | it will run puppy linux fine.....but my kids like ubuntu....so I am hoping xubuntu will run okay on it | 02:22 |
LaserJock | the hard drive is pretty small, but it should work | 02:22 |
Dante123 | I see minimum requirements.......and they mention mainly ram....but not much on CPU and speed.... | 02:23 |
LaserJock | yeah, CPU is much harder to put a limit on | 02:24 |
LaserJock | I would use the Alternate CD for installation | 02:24 |
LaserJock | that requires less RAM and is faster for the slower machines | 02:25 |
Dante123 | okay....will give that a try.......will xubuntu support games like netpanzer......that work on ubuntu right off the bat??? | 02:25 |
LaserJock | well, it's possible to run everything that Ubuntu runs | 02:26 |
LaserJock | but you might run into hard drive limits and CPU limits for games | 02:27 |
Dante123 | if i have 192 ram.....i should be okay for netpanzer.....you still think I should download the alternate install.....is that mainly to save on install time??? | 02:29 |
LaserJock | well, it could | 02:35 |
LaserJock | for the Desktop installer you have to boot up to a running system and then install | 02:35 |
LaserJock | with the Alternate installer you can start installing right away | 02:35 |
LaserJock | and some people with 192 RAM have experience problems with the Desktop installer | 02:36 |

peterlyberth | Hi ive made a test install of Edubuntu and a thin client, in vmware. Edubuntu boots fine, but the thin client stops at the edubuntu splash screen | 12:04 |
peterlyberth | Got any idea why? | 12:04 |
peterlyberth | I think i read somewhere that one person had some luck when he disabled the splash screen. But how is it i do that? | 12:06 |
peterlyberth | Anyone? | 12:14 |
peterlyberth | Do you need any info to help?(The conf file) | 12:20 |

jsgotangco | yo! | 01:00 |
hmd64 | I'm plane to make a mixture of edubuntu and xubuntu someting like tuxlab distro | 01:04 |
hmd64 | edubuntu is great but don't work nicely on older hardware | 01:04 |
jsgotangco | really? is it because of the gnome desktop | 01:05 |
hmd64 | gonme is too heavy on network LTSP server | 01:05 |
jsgotangco | right | 01:05 |
hmd64 | and also we need some simplification of the GUI for children | 01:06 |
hmd64 | IMHO edubuntu team has just made ubuntu+kdeedu+LTSP that's all | 01:08 |
hmd64 | that's not enough | 01:09 |
jsgotangco | hmd64: we're completely aware of that | 01:11 |
jsgotangco | we just don't have enough developers to make some radical changes, as well sa proper planning | 01:11 |
hmd64 | I know | 01:12 |
jsgotangco | amd64 testing for instance, we only get something like 2 test volunteers | 01:14 |
hmd64 | I prefer to make changes inside edubuntu distro | 01:15 |
hmd64 | so it can reach a lot of people and to be shiped freely | 01:16 |
hmd64 | tuxlab has made a nice job but their distro is localised only for southafrica | 01:17 |
