| bimberi | ogra: I like the idea. Broadens the scope of the ubuntu LTSP solution. Currently "Edu" constrains (but does focus) it. | 12:37 |
| RichEd | ogra: that would make sense ... if only to seperate in people's minds that LTSP is not just for edubuntu ... and expose ubuntu LTSP for icafe's & commercial work environments | 12:37 |
| bimberi | hi RichEd | 12:38 |
| RichEd | hi bimberi :) | 12:38 |
| bimberi | :) | 12:38 |
| RichEd | ogra: this was a discussion i was having with rodarvus a while back ... | 12:39 |
| bimberi | where is rodarvus? | 12:39 |
| RichEd | bimberi: he retired from canonical due to personal domestic issues ... | 12:39 |
| ogra | RichEd, the ubuntu cd could have varoius install modes like thin-client-server, fat-client-server or perbuild icafe ... | 12:39 |
| bimberi | RichEd: ah, kk, thanks | 12:40 |
| ogra | it would solve the shipit problems we have with the two CD thing as well | 12:40 |
| ogra | currently edubuntu-server is only ltsp ... | 12:41 |
| RichEd | ogra: yep ... it may be an idea to draw up a matrix of target configurations ... and work out the easiest way to get there by adding modules to the basic versions ... give me a sec to play around in a text doc | 12:41 |
| RichEd | back in a bit | 12:41 |
| ogra | and with it you dont gain anything beyond the ltsp-server-standalone package | 12:41 |
| ogra | well, i need mdz confirmation to have a new ubuntu flavor ... | 12:42 |
| ogra | or even sabdfl | 12:42 |
| RichEd | well it need not be a flavour on its own ... | 12:42 |
| bimberi | ie. TB? | 12:42 |
| ogra | it would be our edubuntu CD, debranded and with a normal ubuntu desktop | 12:42 |
| RichEd | quick question ... is the ubuntu server a "more efficient server" than the edubuntu one ? | 12:42 |
| ogra | all the remaining edu bits would move to the second CD | 12:43 |
| RichEd | yep ... so that is not a new flavour ... it is Ubuntu LTSP | 12:43 |
| ogra | heh, no the ubuntu-server iso has the purpose to serve witout a desktop | 12:43 |
| RichEd | ^^ is that desired in Education anywhere ? | 12:44 |
| ogra | we cant just add ltsp to it ... so we'll need a new iso and flavor ... | 12:44 |
| ogra | for webservers etc ... | 12:44 |
| RichEd | we cant just add ltsp to it <- explain ? | 12:44 |
| ogra | in big environments you might have a lot of desktop less servers | 12:44 |
| ogra | ltsp re4quires a full desktop install on the server | 12:45 |
| bimberi | could ltsp fit on the alternate cd? | 12:45 |
| RichEd | in big environments you might have a lot of desktop less servers <- also true for a large school ... but then i assume that you'd go for ubuntu as the server if there was no need to run a desktop on the server, OR LTSP off the server ? | 12:46 |
| bimberi | hm, 696MB, probably not | 12:46 |
| bimberi | !info ltsp-server-standalone feisty | 12:47 |
| ubotu | ltsp-server-standalone: Complete LTSP server environment. In component main, is optional. Version 5.0.7 (feisty), package size 28 kB, installed size 80 kB | 12:47 |
| bimberi | well 28kB would fit ;p | 12:48 |
| ogra | that means all desktop packages need to be on the CD | 12:50 |

| skwashd | i have been trying to find info on this ... but i haven't had much luck | 01:57 |
| skwashd | is it possible to have edubuntu running on 1 box and dhcp on another ? | 01:57 |
| ogra | sure | 01:57 |
| ogra | but edubuntu will start the dhcp server by default if you do a server install ... you need to manually disable it ... and indeed you need a physical connection between the clients and the dhcp server in your network | 01:58 |
| skwashd | ogra: yeah thats call | 01:59 |
| skwashd | i plan to install edubuntu under KVM | 01:59 |
| ogra | install the server with a single network card and that should work ... but make sure to configure your dhcp server correctly | 01:59 |
| skwashd | and keep my existing dhcp server | 01:59 |
| skwashd | then play with a couple of client machines | 02:00 |

| sbalneav | Morning highvoltage | 02:06 |
| sbalneav | Sitting here, very tired, in the Continental VIP lounge in Newark, New Jersey, after 24 hours of travel, and still another 8 to go. | 02:07 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: condolences, have you got anything besides idle IRC channels to entertain you? | 02:08 |
| sbalneav | Oh, yeah. DBUS documentation, Xorg source code, etc. | 02:09 |
| highvoltage | sbalneav: ouch! | 02:09 |
| sbalneav | Unfortunately, I'm trying to work up the mental reserves to dig into them. I've got at least a 3 hour wait. | 02:09 |
| highvoltage | sbalneav: how's newark? | 02:09 |
| sbalneav | It's a nice airport. | 02:09 |
| sbalneav | And the VIP lounge is even nicer. | 02:09 |
| sbalneav | I'm beginning to get to the point where I think I should break down and buy a cell phone. | 02:10 |
| === highvoltage thinks that Newark was not the best name for a place in a state with a similar sounding city | ||
| sbalneav | Heh. | 02:10 |
| sbalneav | I'm thinking Newark is where they exiled everyone who couldn't say "New York" | 02:11 |
| sbalneav | Problem is, if I'm going to buy a cell phone, with all the international jet-setting I've been doing in the last few years, the only thing that makes sense is to buy a dual-mode (CDMA and GSM) phone. | 02:12 |
| sbalneav | Which automatically puts me into the > $200 range, with way less choice. | 02:12 |

| sbalneav | A "Roland" rings a bell, but I can't put any names to faces right now. | 02:25 |
| ogra | sbalneav, i think its gone already | 02:25 |
| ogra | it was on jonos blog | 02:25 |
| SimonAnibal | ogra, not to underestimate Asia and their ability to get momentum quickly, but Latin America already has momentum, and legislation in place to encourage the use of Free Software | 02:26 |
| sbalneav | ogra: Asia will have numbers. But South America actually GETS the "Libre" in Freedom | 02:26 |
| SimonAnibal | Not to mention, I think Microsoft underestimates South America (being Third World and all), while they're pouring resources into Asia, which will have an effect | 02:27 |
| sbalneav | Asia will use Linux because it's Fr. a. i. Be. South Am. will use it as an actual istrument of social change. | 02:27 |
| sbalneav | Which is muey coolio | 02:27 |
| ogra | i didnt want to make south amreica look bad :) but i think asia has similar momentum ... | 02:27 |

| SimonAnibal | FISL is going to be helping out the Ubuntu-VE FeistyCitas (Feisty Install Fests) | 02:27 |
| SimonAnibal | ogra: You may certainly be right, the only time I've been to Asia was Japan, and this was before my getting into Linux, about say 6 years ago, and all the computers were running XP | 02:28 |
| sbalneav | North America had better get with the program, and quick. I predict that unless we wake up soon (and realistically, I don't think that's going to happen) every where else in the world is going to be kicking our *sses in IT. | 02:28 |

| sbalneav | You should have seen when Jono asked "How many people run Ubuntu". | 02:32 |
| sbalneav | He had about 400 people in his talk | 02:32 |
| cliebow_ | after sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 02:33 |
| sbalneav | 300 of them stuck their hand up. | 02:33 |
| ogra | hehe | 02:33 |
| ogra | cliebow_, please dont advise that, its not suggested ... | 02:33 |
| sbalneav | It was, quite frankly, incredible. | 02:33 |
| ogra | update-manager is the way to upgrade ... | 02:33 |
| cliebow_ | ogra:ok | 02:33 |
| sbalneav | Maddog basically spent his entire talk plugging thin clients/ltsp | 02:33 |
| knix_ | ogra, not in server? | 02:33 |
| ogra | apt-get will leave you with a manual work | 02:33 |
| sbalneav | and HE was running Ubuntu on HIS laptop | 02:34 |
| ogra | s/a// | 02:34 |
| sbalneav | and the big message from both Jim and I? | 02:34 |
| ogra | sbalneav, cool ! | 02:34 |
| sbalneav | Ubuntu == LTSP built in | 02:34 |
| sbalneav | HUGE win. | 02:34 |
| knix_ | ogra, theres no gui in server, so how would you use update manager? | 02:34 |
| SimonAnibal | RichEd: Heh, you came in with that spelling correction and then disappeared, thought maybe we'd bored you to sleep ;-) Hey, would you happen to know if there's someone I might be able to talk to about getting some Edgy CDs now that Feisty's out? I'd love to get a set of them if they weren't all sent out to complete my collection :-) | 02:34 |
| ogra | sbalneav, i was just discussing a ubuntu-thin-client-server.iso in favor of the first edubuntu CD :) | 02:35 |
| sbalneav | That's a great idea. | 02:35 |
| ogra | knix_, i thought you talk about edubuntu (since thias here is #edubuntu) ;) | 02:35 |
| RichEd | SimonAnibal: how many would you want ? one of each flavour ? | 02:35 |
| SimonAnibal | ogra: And then have differen educational packages/artwork on the second CD? | 02:35 |
| ogra | sbalneav, moving *all* edubuntu parts to the addon CD | 02:35 |
| knix_ | ogra, I understand | 02:35 |
| sbalneav | That makes a ton of sense | 02:35 |
| SimonAnibal | RichEd: Yeah, I'm looking to have a complete collection of them | 02:36 |
| sbalneav | Then, they get the Ubuntu/thin client main cd | 02:36 |
| ogra | knix_, for ubuntu server there should be a commandline tool afaik ... | 02:36 |
| ogra | look in the wiki | 02:36 |
| sbalneav | and for edu: all the edu addon bits. | 02:36 |
| SimonAnibal | RichEd: I have a feeling theirl aesthetic and historical value will only go up with time | 02:36 |
| ogra | right | 02:36 |
| ogra | or a ubuntu default CD and the edubuntu desktop | 02:36 |
| RichEd | SimonAnibal: just so you know ... collectors were seen as a major cost bleed :) | 02:36 |
| sbalneav | Hold on, lemme reposition myself in the lounge to a comfy chair. | 02:36 |
| SimonAnibal | RichEd: :-/ Ouch. Caught red-handed. | 02:37 |
| knix_ | ogra, I hope there is, I cant find the docs for it anywhere, and the people on #ubuntu-server never answer me :( | 02:37 |
| RichEd | I'll try to arrange a few for you, and pass on to somone like sbalneav at UES/UDS for local posting when they get back. | 02:37 |
| ogra | knix_, ask mvo ... he does update.manager | 02:37 |
| ogra | *update-manager | 02:37 |
| SimonAnibal | RichEd: Neat! I'd really appreciate that! I started with Breezy I knew I wouldn't be able to get any of the earlier ones, but I figured now that Edgy is no longer current it might be possible to nab some of those | 02:38 |
| sbalneav | Ah | 02:38 |
| sbalneav | I have all things a hacker needs | 02:38 |
| sbalneav | Power, internet, coffee, and a comfy chair. | 02:38 |
| RichEd | sbalneav: hands, brain, burgers | 02:38 |
| sbalneav | hbb | 02:38 |
| SimonAnibal | I'd like a monitor at eye-level | 02:39 |
| SimonAnibal | I'm a tall guy, and my neck hurts after looking down all day | 02:39 |
| === RichEd saws the feet off SimonAnibal'c chair | ||
| sbalneav | SimonAnibal: That's what phone books are for: under your monitor :) | 02:39 |
| SimonAnibal | It's a pneumatic swivel chair, you just got sprayed with hydraulic oil | 02:39 |
| knix_ | ty | 02:40 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: eek, I'd need about 6 or 7, and that picture is not particularly stable in my mind | 02:40 |
| sbalneav | Glue the pages together. Or, Cinderblocks :) | 02:40 |
| knix_ | ogra, where is mvo? | 02:40 |
| SimonAnibal | heheh, we've got a bunch of old Windows XP Workstation Edition boxes | 02:41 |
| SimonAnibal | err | 02:41 |
| SimonAnibal | NT | 02:41 |
| SimonAnibal | Hmmm, I wonder how the coffee turned out, brb | 02:41 |
| jsgotangco | i actually have *sealed* windows NT 3.51 discs somewhere here | 02:42 |
| SimonAnibal | These are 4.0 SP4 | 02:43 |
| SimonAnibal | What version was "Windows For Workgroups"? | 02:44 |
| jsgotangco | 3.1 | 02:44 |
| SimonAnibal | It comes with an MS-DOS Concise User's Guide | 02:44 |
| ogra | no 3.11 ? | 02:44 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: right | 02:44 |
| ogra | *not | 02:44 |
| jsgotangco | my bad | 02:44 |
| SimonAnibal | neat, I wonder what other old proprietary software crap we have hiding around here | 02:45 |
| sbalneav | I'm kind of cheezed at Jono, BTW | 02:45 |
| jsgotangco | why? | 02:45 |
| RichEd | sbalneav: why 2 ? | 02:45 |
| sbalneav | His laptop didn't work, so, like a true ubuntuite, I rushed up and loaned him mine so he could do his presentation | 02:46 |
| sbalneav | And in all his blogging, I didn't get a mention :( | 02:46 |
| sbalneav | boo hoo | 02:46 |
| sbalneav | Jono doesn't love me :) | 02:46 |
| SimonAnibal | hahah, I get it, you only loaned him your laptop so you'd get a shoutout ;-) | 02:47 |

| sbalneav | Not even sure if he knew it was me. I'm just joking, I'm not really mad. | 02:48 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: just messing with you | 02:48 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: Someone's got to keep you canucks on your toes | 02:49 |
| sbalneav | I'm on my butt in a chair at the moment. :) | 02:49 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: Yeah, but metaphorically, you're on your toes | 02:49 |
| sbalneav | heh | 02:49 |
| SimonAnibal | *sigh* I should probably get back to finishing up documentation here | 02:50 |
| sbalneav | Mentally, I'm flat on my back | 02:50 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: *yawn* I'm right there with you....errrr, I should probably phrase that "I'm mentally on my back as well". Coffee should help, though | 02:50 |
| sbalneav | Coffee helps most things | 02:51 |
| SimonAnibal | We didn't have enough so I only got half the amount of water and ground the beans as fine as possible | 02:51 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: Amen, though, to be honest I wish I didn't rely on it so. Any substance that I rely on I start distrusting. I'm sort of addicto-phobic | 02:52 |
| sbalneav | If being addicted to Coffee, The Internet, and Ubuntu are the worst addictions you come up with in life, consider yourself fortunate. In my line of work (Legal Aid sysadmin), I see the effects of worse addictions firsthand. | 02:54 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: I smoked up until a couple of years ago, convinced I wasn't addicted. Once I realized I was addicted, really accepted it, I just swore to never again smoke a cigarette. It's worked so far, but I've been really paranoid of getting addicted again, it's not a pleasant feeling to not be in control of yourself | 02:54 |
| sbalneav | agreed. | 02:54 |
| SimonAnibal | Yeah, I am addicted to the Internet, and Ubuntu; though the later doesn't bother me so much, I do feel a sort of resentment towards the former and all the time it seems to suck up. It seems unhealthy at times | 02:55 |
| === ogra glares at http://www.ubuntulive.com/cs/ubuntu/view/e_sess/13443 | ||

| sbalneav | 1 hour advertisement for thin clients. | 02:58 |
| sbalneav | Basic message in one sentence: | 02:59 |
| ogra | sbalneav, thats for portland in july | 02:59 |
| sbalneav | Thin client computing == the future. | 02:59 |
| ogra | yeah | 02:59 |
| jsgotangco | who is going to portland? | 02:59 |
| sbalneav | He mentions LTSP all the way through the talk | 02:59 |
| sbalneav | mememememememe | 02:59 |
| === ogra hopes so :) | ||
| SimonAnibal | I'll hopefully be as far from civilization as still humanly possible at that time | 02:59 |

| SimonAnibal | I hope to get some kick-ass long-exposure shots | 03:00 |
| SimonAnibal | with my Canon Digital Rebel XT | 03:00 |
| SimonAnibal | I've never been somewhere where it was dark enough to get the spinning stars effect | 03:00 |
| jsgotangco | going to portland seems nice | 03:00 |
| sbalneav | http://www.ubuntulive.com/cs/ubuntu/view/e_sess/13468 | 03:02 |
| sbalneav | Guess who's doing that one. | 03:03 |
| ogra | cool ! | 03:04 |
| sbalneav | Your favorite jet-setting public servant | 03:04 |
| ogra | heh | 03:04 |
| jsgotangco | govbuntu? | 03:04 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: You, I presume? | 03:04 |
| sbalneav | You presume correctly | 03:05 |
| SimonAnibal | sbalneav: Heheh, context man strikes again! | 03:06 |
| sbalneav | Do you have a Cape? | 03:07 |
| sbalneav | All superheroes should have capes. | 03:07 |
| SimonAnibal | *blinkblink* :-) I have a REALLY BIG towel | 03:07 |
| RichEd | sbalneav would need a REALLY BIG cape ;) | 03:07 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: would ARM9-based computers with the proper kernel images be possible as thin clients? | 03:08 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, well, you need a port of all the packages in the ltsp-client as well | 03:11 |
| jsgotangco | hmm right i forgot about that | 03:12 |
| ogra | but an arm port would be a great thing | 03:13 |
| ogra | especially for embedded stuff | 03:13 |
| jsgotangco | yeah that's what i have in mind | 03:13 |
| SimonAnibal | Hmmm, have you heard of Ndiyo? | 03:13 |
| jsgotangco | yeah some network computing project | 03:14 |
| jsgotangco | right | 03:14 |
| === tsurc [n=alistair@skegnessgrammar.plus.com] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| SimonAnibal | They're basically ultra-thin-clients | 03:14 |
| SimonAnibal | They're using Ubuntu in their example photos | 03:15 |
| jsgotangco | ultra-thin meaning it just provides network and video? | 03:15 |
| SimonAnibal | "Early versions of the Nivo took the form of a small box (roughly 12x8x2cm) which simply has an ethernet (network) socket, a low voltage power socket, sockets for keyboard and mouse, and a VGA (monitor) socket. This little box replaces the entire PC in a conventional computer workstation." | 03:15 |
| SimonAnibal | "Ethernet is not the only way to connect Nivo terminals to the server. Another option is to use USB, and this has some interesting implications which we discuss elsewhere in the Hubster document." | 03:16 |
| jsgotangco | pretty pocketable architecture | 03:16 |
| jsgotangco | too bad we can't pocket monitors and keyboards | 03:17 |
| SimonAnibal | heheh, all we need is rollable, touch-sensitive, e-ink display | 03:17 |
| cliebow_ | if only wireless... | 03:17 |
| jsgotangco | wireless ltsp hmmm we can dream, but who knows what sinister plans already in place by upstream | 03:18 |
| === jsgotangco looks at sbalneav | ||
| ogra | jsgotangco, thats only possible with a local kernel ... | 03:18 |
| sbalneav | We were actually talking about that over breakfast this morning | 03:18 |
| ogra | unless someone implements WPXE :) | 03:18 |
| SimonAnibal | so they'd have to boot from, say, a USB flash drive? | 03:19 |
| ogra | or CD or something, yes | 03:19 |
| sbalneav | what you need is a mini kernel with wireless drivers, and enough of a chroot to do a download of a FULL ubuntu kernel, which you'll execute via two-kernel-monty/kexec | 03:19 |
| SimonAnibal | I'd think even a 64 MB flash drive would do the trick, ne? | 03:19 |
| sbalneav | stick it on a usb stick, and (as they say in Paris) Voila! | 03:20 |
| ogra | and a setup of essid's and keys that works | 03:20 |
| sbalneav | right | 03:20 |
| ogra | you cant make it fully automatic ... | 03:20 |
| SimonAnibal | nodnod | 03:20 |
| sbalneav | tricky, but not impossible. | 03:20 |
| ogra | since there is always hardware (wlan routers) involved wee cant control | 03:20 |
| jsgotangco | extreme ltsp | 03:20 |
| sbalneav | what we need is a build-ltsp-wireless-boot-thingy-on-a-usb-stick-oh-and-add-your-essid command. | 03:21 |
| sbalneav | It has to be that command | 03:21 |
| SimonAnibal | you could likely have it set up to plug into the USB socket of the motherboard, so there isn't a part sticking out that could be broken/stolen | 03:21 |
| sbalneav | exactly | 03:21 |
| sbalneav | I'm speccing it out now. :) | 03:21 |
| SimonAnibal | Thank god for command-line comnpletion | 03:21 |
| cliebow_ | reslts from the old wireless ltsp floppy were somewhat challenged..but perhap with g.. | 03:22 |
| jsgotangco | pre-n even | 03:22 |
| SimonAnibal | maybe a combination USB flash drive/USB wireless-G dongle | 03:23 |

| juliux | ogra, did we have fat client support allready with feisty? | 06:22 |
| ogra | no | 06:23 |
| knix_ | ogra, wow, that did work. Is there a way to get the picture bigger? Its really tiny | 06:23 |
| ogra | no network auth, no fat clients | 06:23 |
| ogra | knix_, i think x11vnc has options | 06:23 |
| knix_ | kk, ty again | 06:23 |
| ogra | just add the right pieces to the stanza | 06:24 |
| ogra | knix_, it took me 2 mins to look that stuff up in google btw and 8 mins to write it down ... | 06:27 |
| jsgotangco | good night ciao | 06:29 |

| ogra | yay, thanks | 06:30 |
| jsgotangco | (unless there is another kernel out there) | 06:30 |
| ogra | doko had a lot of probs with it | 06:30 |
| knix_ | ogra, well your obviously experienced with linux, i obviously am not | 06:30 |
| jsgotangco | perhaps its a langpack issue? | 06:30 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, a langpack issue ? | 06:31 |
| ogra | you mean that dokos kernel panics on boot with certain video modes ... ? | 06:31 |

| cbx33 | gonna try soething else | 08:35 |
| cbx33 | hold only your hats | 08:35 |
| ogra | sorry, you are totally out of context, what are you trying ? | 08:36 |
| cbx33 | to get a thin client to boot | 08:36 |
| === ogra does that several times a day | ||
| cbx33 | It's insane | 08:37 |
| cbx33 | yeh ok poke fun | 08:37 |
| cbx33 | It gets the kernel it boots that fine | 08:37 |
| cbx33 | it just won't load the nfs | 08:37 |
| cbx33 | by the loks of things | 08:37 |
| ogra | works fine here and on all test installs i made | 08:38 |
| cbx33 | well.....it doesn't work here | 08:38 |
| cbx33 | I can't see why vmware would be causing a problem | 08:38 |
| ogra | make sure your hfs server is running ... you dont have a second dhcpd iun the net your dhcpd.config is right etc ... you know the drill | 08:38 |
| ogra | *nfs | 08:38 |
| cbx33 | this is a fresh install of the server | 08:38 |
| cbx33 | straight after reboot | 08:38 |
| cbx33 | i re installed just this minute | 08:39 |
| cbx33 | to make sure I hadn't screwed it up | 08:39 |
| ogra | the i guess something with your net devices is wrong ... | 08:39 |
| cbx33 | well what would make tftp work | 08:39 |
| cbx33 | but nfs mounting not? | 08:40 |
| cbx33 | heh | 08:40 |
| ogra | no idea | 08:40 |
| ogra | i never used vmware in my life ... | 08:40 |
| ogra | no i'm lying, i used the playwer once to have a look | 08:40 |

| cbx33 | hmm | 08:46 |
| cbx33 | well....can someone get me a feisty ldm login screenshot | 08:46 |
| cbx33 | pretty pelase? | 08:47 |
