| merriam | <merriam> Why do we still have "edgy (6.10) is released ! grab it while its hot !" in the topic? <LaserJock> cause it's the latest stable release? | 05:37 |
| merriam | There's no way it can be described as "hot" now. | 05:37 |
| ajmitch | it's still hot enough | 05:38 |
| jsgotangco | 7.04 is not that hot yet since we have some critical release bugs | 05:42 |
| sbalneav | merriam: The last thing we want is everybody grabbing Feisty thinking it's stable, and being sorely dissapointed :( | 05:44 |
| ajmitch | jsgotangco: sadly, and there's a *lot* of work to be done on universe at least | 05:45 |
| jsgotangco | for times like this, all we need is green eggs and ham | 05:45 |
| merriam | sbalneav: so you're keen to communicate to teachers the fact that Edgy is stable and is the release to use now? | 05:50 |
| sbalneav | Until feisty gets released, yes. | 05:51 |
| jsgotangco | can it wait for a few weeks? | 05:51 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 05:51 |
| sbalneav | Once feisty gets released, then we'll tell people IT's stable :) | 05:52 |
| merriam | I know some teachers very well. I have already recommended Edubuntu. I wouldn't want any of them to read the message "edgy (6.10) is released ! grab it while its hot !". | 05:56 |
| merriam | It's not hot. It's stable. As for English teachers... | 05:56 |

| cliebow_ | yes.. Scottie just got me on the right road..lots of upgrades doing | 07:57 |
| obiyoda | I am installing The beta version and it hangs on me at about 6% of the select and install software. Any Ideas about why this might be? | 08:01 |
| sbalneav | obiyoda: Did you do a "check cd contents" boot up? Maybe you've got a bad burn on the cd | 08:06 |
| sbalneav | As well, might be worth running a ram test as well. | 08:07 |
| obiyoda | I did a check on the cd and it passes. I can install just the basic command line mode but when i go back and install the server it just hangs. | 08:07 |
| sbalneav | Hmmm, not sure what's causing that. You're using the server install cd, you say? The text based one? | 08:08 |
| obiyoda | Yes the text based for the edubuntu server | 08:10 |
| sbalneav | Wierd, as there's nothing GRAPHICAL that the installer's doing, so it's not a video card issue. | 08:14 |
| sbalneav | Can you do a control-alt-f1 or f2 and get a shell up? Or is it hard hung? | 08:14 |
| obiyoda | No I can get to a shell | 08:15 |
| obiyoda | and run commands. Just don't know what to look at | 08:15 |
| sbalneav | Ah, ok, so it's not hard hung. That's good, we can do some debugging then. | 08:18 |
| sbalneav | in a shell, what are the last 5 lines of the output of "dmesg" | 08:18 |
| sbalneav | Anything that looks like an error? | 08:18 |
| obiyoda | the only error it is showing is end_request: I/O error, dev fd0 sector 0 | 08:26 |
| obiyoda | I am going to try some other things I think it may be a hardware problem as i am using an old box. Thanks for the help | 08:33 |
| sbalneav | No problem, ping me if you need me | 08:39 |

| evilmercer | anyone know how to get thin clients to boot without using dhcp? | 09:49 |
| sbalneav | Any reason why you can't use dhcp? | 09:50 |
| evilmercer | yeah, we use a windows server for remote installation services that requires it to be a dhcp server as well | 09:52 |
| evilmercer | I am using a neoware thin client | 09:53 |
| sbalneav | You could put two nics in the Edubuntu server, and boot the thin clients off of the second nic, then you just limit the dhcp on the Edubuntu server to the second nic. | 09:53 |
| evilmercer | that would still put two dhcp servers on my network | 09:55 |
| === rbmf [n=steve@216.62.85.65] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| sbalneav | No, you can limit the Edubuntu dhcp server to only answer on the nic you're going to hang the terminals off of | 09:57 |
| sbalneav | So it won't respond on your "main" network. | 09:57 |
| evilmercer | I dont have that option unfortunatly | 09:58 |
| evilmercer | the problem is xserver wont allow connections that aren't dhcp clients as well | 09:59 |
| sbalneav | What do you mean? | 10:01 |
| evilmercer | If you boot to it by dhcp like normal it will work, but if you manualy tell it to connect to the server it wont allow the connection | 10:02 |

| sbalneav | Go to System -> Administration -> Login window | 10:37 |
| sbalneav | Go to the remote tab, and enable XDMCP | 10:38 |

| LaserJock | yeah, mdke just asked me to send an email to the list | 11:03 |
| LaserJock | I just wanted to make sure I *actually* looked over your stuff before I did so | 11:03 |
| LaserJock | as it's my butt on the line ;-) | 11:03 |
| LaserJock | but I'm fully satisfied | 11:03 |
| sbalneav | So, do I pass so far? :) | 11:03 |
| LaserJock | yes, I'll write the email right now in fact, as I'll forget it otherwise | 11:04 |
| sbalneav | ajmitch: so far, just dealing with some manual labour | 11:04 |
| sbalneav | HAHAHAHA | 11:04 |
| sbalneav | That's a doco joke | 11:04 |
| LaserJock | lol | 11:06 |
| sbalneav | I'm here all week, folks. Don't forget to tip your waitress. | 11:06 |
| ajmitch | sbalneav: right... :) | 11:12 |

| bodhi_zazen | Hello edubuntu | 11:49 |
| bodhi_zazen | I am considering setting up an edubuntu cluster, first for myself, then perhaps for the local community (read school) | 11:49 |
| bodhi_zazen | Can I test the system (server side) with the live CD ? | 11:50 |
| bodhi_zazen | Or do I need to install to boot thin clients ? | 11:50 |
| LaserJock | install | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | I'm pretty sure anyway | 11:53 |
| bodhi_zazen | LaserJock, Thanks | 11:54 |
| LaserJock | I don't think the LiveCD has enough room for all the LTSP server stuff | 11:55 |
| Burgwork | there was a plan to do that | 11:57 |
| Burgwork | be nice to produce a live dbd | 11:57 |
| Burgwork | dvd, rather | 11:57 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 11:58 |
| bodhi_zazen | So then the classroom server CD is the server install ? | 12:03 |
| bodhi_zazen | What is the desktop cd for ? | 12:03 |
| LaserJock | that's the LiveCD | 12:04 |
| bodhi_zazen | Is the live cd what the thin clients look like ? | 12:04 |
| bodhi_zazen | and what is the add-on Cd | 12:04 |
| bodhi_zazen | I's sooo confused :( | 12:04 |
| LaserJock | the add-on CD has all the educational software | 12:04 |
| bodhi_zazen | *I'm | 12:04 |
| LaserJock | sorry, we've made some changes for Feisty | 12:05 |
| LaserJock | Desktop = LiveCD | 12:05 |
| LaserJock | Server = LTSP server and workstation (non-Live CD installs) | 12:06 |
| LaserJock | Server-addon = educational software that can be installed after the base system is installed | 12:06 |
| bodhi_zazen | Thanks for the clarification | 12:07 |
| bodhi_zazen | I'll wait for Feisty and give it a spin | 12:07 |
| bodhi_zazen | I've got the hardware | 12:07 |
| LaserJock | generally you're going to want the server and server-addon CDs | 12:07 |
| bodhi_zazen | I've got the children | 12:07 |
| LaserJock | the desktop CD is cool for demoing and things like that | 12:08 |
| bodhi_zazen | Which cd to set-up thin clients ? | 12:08 |
| LaserJock | but I think it's pretty close to an Edubuntu branded Ubuntu Desktop CD | 12:08 |
| LaserJock | well, thin clients themselve need no setup | 12:08 |
| LaserJock | but the thin client server is on the server CD | 12:09 |
| bodhi_zazen | That is the part that is new to me, booting the think clients | 12:10 |
| LaserJock | well, if all goes well and you have a PXE boot thin client | 12:10 |
| LaserJock | you install the server and then just turn on the thin client | 12:10 |
| bodhi_zazen | Can I use old PC's as thin clients (I hope) | 12:12 |
| LaserJock | generally | 12:13 |
| LaserJock | you might find the Edubuntu Handbook helpful | 12:13 |
| LaserJock | it's a bit "In Progress" but still has a lot of good stuff: http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/handbook/C/ | 12:13 |
| bodhi_zazen | That is my goal, to read that some in the next few weeks | 12:13 |
| bodhi_zazen | Thanks for the link | 12:13 |
| bodhi_zazen | At this point I guess I am in the "collect information" stage | 12:14 |
