| === Kamping_Kaiser has to get that 'dual boot using ltsp' thing happening | ||
| Sleepy_Coder | Actually, it just installed it that way...:< I made the partitions, installed Windows on one, then installed Ubuntu and it set up my menu.lst. | 04:33 |
| Sleepy_Coder | I just modified it to look pretty. :p | 04:33 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | thast a menu.lts? | 04:34 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | i thought it was pxelinux.conf/* | 04:34 |
| Sleepy_Coder | I remember one time I lost the option on the grub boot menu to boot Windows--which I hate doing, but must do every now and then--and I had to edit menu.lst to put it back in. :) | 04:34 |

| === Sleepy_Coder stabs ubotu | ||
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 04:41 |
| Sleepy_Coder | Oh, zeyr we go. :D | 04:41 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hehe | 04:41 |
| Sleepy_Coder | Here we go: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18752/ | 04:42 |
| Sleepy_Coder | I only pasted the lines that were relevant. | 04:42 |
| Sleepy_Coder | You can sort of see how the syntax works. I think every "title" must have a "root" underneath or else grub will just ignore what's in the "title" and it won't show. | 04:43 |
| Sleepy_Coder | Umm...don't copy and paste that into your menu.lst if anyone cares....it'd be kind of bad since you guys don't have my configuration on the MBR. :p | 04:44 |

| mattfletcher | i read that i can edit files within /etc/skel to redefine things like desktop backgrounds for any new users i create, is this correct? | 12:06 |
| cliebow | yes | 12:34 |
| cliebow | crazy_bus, sure..i have found one laptop cranaky enough it wouldnt | 12:35 |
| mattfletcher | clie, was that yes to me? | 12:44 |
| mattfletcher | i've looked in /etc/skel/ on an ubuntu 7.04 server (the only machine i have handy) and it's empty. where can i predefine things like desktop backgrounds and themes for new users? | 12:51 |
| cliebow | no dot files? | 01:12 |
| cliebow | if you want special settings for openoffice for instance..use an account to create the perfect .openoffice2.org file and drop it un /etc/skel | 01:13 |

| mattfletcher | it's specifically the theme and background i will want to set, where are they stored? there are only a couple of files like .bashrc in /etc/skel/, no big directories of stuff | 01:38 |

| cliebow | i dont know exactly where they are.. | 01:38 |
| mattfletcher | i'll try #ubuntu | 01:40 |
| cliebow | but you can experiment with all thos e.g* files...take two users..get just what you want with one user..then drop the .files into second users folder..chown to the new user..see what happens..(and let me know what you find 8`) | 01:40 |

| mattfletcher | hello from my new edubuntu installation! | 09:43 |
| HedgeMage | hi mattfletcher | 09:44 |
| mattfletcher | i'm wondering now how to use ltsp - i tell my laptop to boot from "network" but it just shows me my normal grub | 09:44 |
| HedgeMage | mattfletcher: sorry, I've not worked with ltsp | 09:46 |
| mattfletcher | no worries, i'll wait till after the weekend | 09:46 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 09:47 |
| mattfletcher | but just to say - it looks stunning! i've just turned compiz on and woo! i just need to remember to turn it off once i have 10 thin clients connecting to it | 09:48 |
| cliebow_ | mattfletcher:is dhcp running? | 09:48 |
| mattfletcher | hi cliebow, not on this machine - we also have a smoothwall which is providing that. does dhcp tell the tc's where to boot from? | 09:49 |
| cliebow_ | yes.. | 09:49 |
| cliebow_ | BUT | 09:49 |
| mattfletcher | can i make smoothwall's dhcp do it? | 09:50 |
| cliebow_ | there is a smopothwall mod which will let smoothwall pass the right info | 09:50 |
| mattfletcher | smashing | 09:50 |
| mattfletcher | u don't have a link do u? | 09:50 |
| mattfletcher | or a keyword to look for? | 09:50 |
| cliebow_ | that mod also includes an arp table shown within dhcp | 09:50 |
| mattfletcher | arp? | 09:50 |
| cliebow_ | lemme look..it was some work to do but i should have a copy down in Surry | 09:51 |

| mattfletcher | if i remove the smoothwall, put dhcp back on and run the edubuntu server straight into the adsl router should that work? i only have 1 nic | 09:52 |
| cliebow_ | mattfletcher, just shut off dhcp on the sm,oothwall and let you linux box do it 8~) | 09:56 |
| mattfletcher | i can't, it loses net access when i do that. i don't know how to configure the dhcp with the correct gateway etc | 09:58 |
| cliebow_ | what is address of the smoothwall | 10:02 |
| mattfletcher | 192.168.0.10 (internal side) | 10:03 |
| cliebow_ | that is your gateway address on the inside..you smoothwall is set to get info from dhcp for external interface? | 10:04 |
| cliebow_ | ltsp direct to theinternet is not good | 10:04 |
| mattfletcher | i think the smoothwall is statically configured with the ip of the router and the remote dns servers. it's been that long tho that i'm not sure | 10:04 |
| cliebow_ | here is the little piece to add a place for pxe info in smoothwall.. | 10:06 |
| cliebow_ | 169.244.3.137/smoothie.tar | 10:06 |
| cliebow_ | so network is adslrouter--->smoothwall-->ltspbox | 10:07 |
