[12:55] Dante123: for an LTSP setup? [01:26] what does ltsp stand for.....exactly...... [01:29] Linux Terminal Server Project [01:30] yes, i want to do that kind of install.....

[02:01] perhaps [02:01] I mean, it kinda depends on what you'll be running [02:01] and how well you want it to run [02:02] oh wait, maybe it's 1 GHz that you need [02:02] let me go see if I can find the official minimum requirements [02:06] Dante123: http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/handbook/C/ltsp-hw.html [02:07] Dante123: I think maybe I told you a lie about 500MHz [02:07] so what is the truth?? [02:07] well, it says 2GHz is good for 20 people [02:08] I think probably 1GHz might be ok for 5 but it would really depend on what they are running [02:08] thinks that are graphics intensive could be problems [02:08] *things [02:10] sorry about that, I've never actually run an LTSP server. === Dante123 [n=opera@bas4-kitchener06-1167890903.dsl.bell.ca] has left #edubuntu [] === Dante123 [n=opera@bas4-kitchener06-1167890903.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #edubuntu [02:15] hi....what are the minimum requirements for edubuntu or xubuntu as a desktop install??? [02:15] I have a pentium II....192 megs ram........3g partition......can it run either one decently....for browsing web etc.??? [02:21] yeah, they will probably run [02:21] how fast is the pentium II? [02:22] 350 mhz [02:22] I think I would recommend Xubuntu for that one [02:22] it will run puppy linux fine.....but my kids like ubuntu....so I am hoping xubuntu will run okay on it [02:22] the hard drive is pretty small, but it should work [02:23] I see minimum requirements.......and they mention mainly ram....but not much on CPU and speed.... [02:24] yeah, CPU is much harder to put a limit on [02:24] I would use the Alternate CD for installation [02:25] that requires less RAM and is faster for the slower machines [02:25] okay....will give that a try.......will xubuntu support games like netpanzer......that work on ubuntu right off the bat??? [02:26] well, it's possible to run everything that Ubuntu runs [02:27] but you might run into hard drive limits and CPU limits for games [02:29] 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??? [02:35] well, it could [02:35] for the Desktop installer you have to boot up to a running system and then install [02:35] with the Alternate installer you can start installing right away [02:36] and some people with 192 RAM have experience problems with the Desktop installer === tekteen [i=nobody@ool-45768f2b.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #edubuntu [02:55] Can someone help me with software modems on a toshiba laptop? === superseth [n=smarinel@adsl-75-15-121-180.dsl.snlo01.sbcglobal.net] has joined #edubuntu === LaserJock is now known as Laser_away === tekteen [i=nobody@ool-45768f2b.dyn.optonline.net] has left #edubuntu [] === stgraber [n=stgraber@client80-83-51-125.abo.net2000.ch] has joined #edubuntu === Dante123 [n=opera@bas4-kitchener06-1096619747.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #edubuntu === Dante123 [n=opera@bas4-kitchener06-1096619747.dsl.bell.ca] has left #edubuntu [] === FunnyHat [n=david@64.140.73.93] has joined #edubuntu === Laser_away is now known as LaserJock === P3L|C4N0 [n=gcamposm@201.230.39.244] has joined #edubuntu === jbrefort [n=jean@mar44-2-82-227-215-241.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu === FunnyHat is now known as FunnyLookinHat === LaserJock is now known as Laser_away === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu === hmd64 [n=hmd@adsl196-229-69-206-196.adsl196-3.iam.net.ma] has joined #edubuntu [11:00] hi [11:01] any edubuntu based on XFCE for older computer? === hmd64 [n=hmd@adsl196-229-69-206-196.adsl196-3.iam.net.ma] has left #edubuntu ["Ex-Chat"] === meduxa [n=agustin@84.Red-217-127-164.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #edubuntu === ubotu [n=ubotu@ubuntu/bot/ubotu] has joined #edubuntu === Ubugtu [n=bugbot@ubuntu/bot/ubugtu] has joined #edubuntu === peterlyberth [n=peter@0x55508d0a.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #edubuntu [12:04] Hi ive made a test install of Edubuntu and a thin client, in vmware.
