[04:29] <Sleepy_Coder> I think I might have too much free time:  http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b100/photoricon/too_much_free_time.jpg
[04:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> nice
[04:31] <Sleepy_Coder> It took a while, but I got it all in there. :p
[04:31] <Sleepy_Coder> I thought one of the Peanuts Bunch would be a good "splash screen"
[04:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> thats on an ltsp setup isnt it?
=== Kamping_Kaiser has to get that 'dual boot using ltsp' thing happening
[04:33] <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
[04:34] <Kamping_Kaiser> thast a menu.lts?
[04:34] <Sleepy_Coder> It's in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[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. :)
[04:35] <Sleepy_Coder> I was just playing around and now I got Snoopy. :p
=== ubotu [n=ubotu@ubuntu/bot/ubotu]  has joined #edubuntu
[04:35] <Kamping_Kaiser> hehe
[04:36] <Sleepy_Coder> I dunno.  I just wanted it to look funny. :p  I might post my menu.lst later so you guys can take a look. :)  *not trying to show off, but I find that a UI that you like makes you enjoy things more*
[04:40] <Sleepy_Coder> I'll pastebin it in a second.
[04:40] <Sleepy_Coder> !paste
[04:40] <Sleepy_Coder> :<
[04:40] <Sleepy_Coder> What happened to ze bot?
=== Sleepy_Coder stabs ubotu
[04:41] <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
[04:42] <Sleepy_Coder> Here we go:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18752/
[04:42] <Sleepy_Coder> I only pasted the lines that were relevant.
[04:43] <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.
[04:44] <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

[12:06] <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?
[12:34] <cliebow>  yes
[12:35] <cliebow> crazy_bus, sure..i have found one laptop cranaky enough it wouldnt
[12:44] <mattfletcher> clie, was that yes to me?
[12:51] <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?
[01:12] <cliebow>  no dot files?
[01:13] <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
[01:14] <cliebow> got a good nautilus setup for an account? drop it in /etc/skel
[01:14] <cliebow> as .nautilus
[01:15] <cliebow> the .gnome2_private stuff is confusing to me what controls what...but same principle applies

[01:28] <SiCk--> anyone any ideas why when my thin-client starts up it wont boot into gdm, it just always throws up a little xterm in the corner?
[01:28] <SiCk--> i can start opera from it
[01:28] <SiCk--> and opera is selected in the .xsession
[01:37] <cliebow> SiCk--, most of the wizaeds are enroute to spain..
[01:38] <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] <mattfletcher> ah, is that why the meeting is silent?
[01:38] <cliebow> i dont know exactly where they are..
[01:40] <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] <cliebow> hmm

[09:43] <mattfletcher> hello from my new edubuntu installation!
[09:44] <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
[09:46] <HedgeMage> mattfletcher: sorry, I've not worked with ltsp
[09:46] <mattfletcher> no worries, i'll wait till after the weekend
[09:47] <HedgeMage> :)
[09:48] <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?
[09:49] <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
[09:50] <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?
[09:51] <cliebow_> lemme look..it was some work to do but i should have a copy down in Surry
[09:51] <mattfletcher> cheers, thanks

[09:52] <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
[09:56] <cliebow_> mattfletcher, just shut off dhcp on the sm,oothwall and let you linux box do it 8~)
[09:58] <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
[10:02] <cliebow_> what is address of the smoothwall
[10:03] <mattfletcher> 192.168.0.10 (internal side)
[10:04] <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
[10:06] <cliebow_> here is the little piece to add a place for pxe info in smoothwall..
[10:06] <cliebow_> 169.244.3.137/smoothie.tar
[10:07] <cliebow_> so network is adslrouter--->smoothwall-->ltspbox
[10:07] <cliebow_> i have to fly for home..ill look you up by and by
