| Rob_ | Hello to all | 02:16 |
| Rob_ | I just downloaded edubuntu, and I am trying to get it to run on my Dell Precision 530 | 02:17 |
| Rob_ | It boots fine and then it stops and exits to a shell and says that it could not open the tty. | 02:18 |
| Rob_ | Any ideas? | 02:18 |

| LaserJock | Rob_: which Edubuntu disk are you using? | 02:20 |
| Rob_ | 7.04 PCx86 | 02:20 |
| Rob_ | Desktop | 02:20 |
| LaserJock | ok | 02:20 |
| LaserJock | I'm not great with the Desktop CDs | 02:21 |
| LaserJock | they've always worked pretty fine for me | 02:21 |
| LaserJock | are you wanting to install Edubuntu? | 02:21 |
| Rob_ | Sure. It may be that I have a bad disk | 02:21 |
| LaserJock | you should be able to run the disk check when you boot the CD | 02:22 |
| Rob_ | It does the same thing with that\ | 02:22 |
| LaserJock | oh | 02:22 |
| LaserJock | that's no good | 02:22 |
| LaserJock | you can do a checksum on the .iso | 02:23 |
| LaserJock | that's the first place a disk can go wrong | 02:23 |
| Rob_ | It may be the disk. | 02:23 |
| LaserJock | if that's ok then you can try reburning | 02:23 |
| Rob_ | I did the checksum and it is good | 02:23 |
| LaserJock | ok | 02:23 |
| Rob_ | I will re-burn the disk | 02:23 |
| Rob_ | Can you burn the iso to a dvd? | 02:23 |
| LaserJock | ok, so back to a previous question, are you wanting to install Edubuntu or just check it out? | 02:24 |
| LaserJock | yes, you can | 02:24 |
| Rob_ | Check it out. | 02:24 |
| Rob_ | We homeschool, and I would like to see what it offers. | 02:24 |
| LaserJock | cool | 02:25 |
| LaserJock | I was homeschooled | 02:25 |
| Rob_ | bbiaf | 02:25 |

| bronze | tristan_: aren't all LTSP setup inherently multi-seat? or are you talking about multiple users per thin client? | 02:13 |
| tristan_ | i was talking about the last one | 02:14 |
| tristan_ | when I have to buy a PC for each client it doesn't make sense anymore to use thin clients ;p | 02:15 |
| bronze | use the $139 units from devon IT | 02:18 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | you dont need the whole pc, so it makes a fiar bit of sense in a lot of cases | 02:18 |
| tristan_ | well, I already have an old PC which may do the job | 02:18 |
| tristan_ | and it's capable to do multiseat things | 02:18 |
| tristan_ | but I want to use thin clients to gain more power (since the server has more CPU power) | 02:19 |
| tristan_ | and more memory | 02:19 |
| bronze | then use that. be aware it wont save you any money on pwer consumption. | 02:19 |
| bronze | *power | 02:19 |
| bronze | Unless you calculate power used per seat, which is a win. | 02:20 |
| tristan_ | but is it possible to make a multiseat thin client? | 02:21 |
| === ogra-classmate [n=teacher@p548af852.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| tristan_ | I buy some cables and a switch today anyway, to give it a try | 02:23 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i still dont get what multiseat means | 02:23 |
| tristan_ | multiple keyboards,monitors,mouses | 02:24 |
| bronze | on a single CPU | 02:24 |
| tristan_ | yep | 02:24 |

| tristan_ | so | 06:10 |
| tristan_ | screwed my PC | 06:10 |
| tristan_ | :) | 06:10 |
| nixternal | man, I had one hell of a funny comeback for that one :) | 06:17 |
| nixternal | tristan_: what happened? | 06:17 |
| tristan_ | i took the dualhead videocard out of my pc | 06:17 |
| tristan_ | and put another old crappy PCI videocard in it | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | and removed the networkcard with bootrom | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | for one gigabit networkcard | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | so I can make a server of it | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | and can put the videocard in this one | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | and the networkcard in my thin client | 06:18 |
| tristan_ | but for some reason it causes some *beep beep* | 06:18 |
| nixternal | well, you probably didn't screw it to bad...have you tried reconfiguring xorg? | 06:18 |
| nixternal | ahhh | 06:19 |
| nixternal | so it doesn't get past bios | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | indeed | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | maybe I should connect the monitor to it | 06:19 |
| nixternal | have you tried putting the old hardware back in to see if it goes away? | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | and a keyboard | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | and see what happens then | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | :P | 06:19 |
| tristan_ | my thin client doesn't work properly yet either | 06:20 |
| nixternal | hrmm, possible to have the "halt on all errors" set in bios..but I didn't think that would cause beeps | 06:20 |
| tristan_ | since the videocard or the monitor isn't working | 06:20 |
| tristan_ | never had errors on any PC I builded | 06:21 |
| tristan_ | always were working immediately | 06:21 |
| tristan_ | except that time I forgot to put a fan on the CPU | 06:21 |
| nixternal | ya, I have had luck with new builds, I tend to destroy systems when I decide to tear them down and clean them out :) | 06:22 |
| tristan_ | may I ask where you're from? | 06:23 |
| nixternal | chicago unfortunately :) | 06:23 |
| tristan_ | do they have "give-away-stores" there? | 06:24 |
| tristan_ | or something like that? | 06:24 |
| nixternal | I only wish...we do "give-aways" though at our lug meetings | 06:24 |

| nixternal | that rocks | 06:26 |
| tristan_ | and next week or so I want to fix a hotspot too | 06:27 |
| nixternal | oh...I know what you mean by give-away-store now..ya we do have a couple in chicago actually | 06:27 |
| tristan_ | aah | 06:27 |
| nixternal | some of the LUG guys and also Free Geek do the same | 06:27 |
| tristan_ | nice :) | 06:27 |
| tristan_ | what is LUG? | 06:27 |
| tristan_ | ohw wait | 06:28 |
| tristan_ | i know | 06:28 |

| cbx33 | hehe | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | yeh good | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | been getting up to some tricks | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | hehe :p | 06:30 |
| nixternal | I have been learning Python and PyQt4 here lately | 06:31 |
| cbx33 | awesome | 06:31 |
| cbx33 | python just rocks doesn't it | 06:31 |
| nixternal | I bought a few books that I have been skimming through and using hte Python documentation that is everywhere | 06:31 |
| cbx33 | the python docs I find a great resource | 06:31 |
| nixternal | Python is nice...for some reason some of the syntax reminds me a little of VB | 06:31 |
| cbx33 | i like the whitespace reliance | 06:31 |
| nixternal | oh yes | 06:31 |
| cbx33 | makes a messy coder like me write clean readable code | 06:32 |
| nixternal | hehe | 06:32 |
| nixternal | I was using Eric to do some Python, but I think I am just to addicted to using Kate | 06:32 |

| nixternal | well, you know I am rockin' the KDE :) | 06:34 |

| jonathan_ | Anyone willing to assist w/ an Edubuntu LTSP server setup? | 09:19 |
| pygi | jonathan_, just ask | 09:19 |
| pygi | encompass, yup ^_^ | 09:19 |
| pygi | encompass, should be done next week AFAIK | 09:20 |
| jonathan_ | setup has 2 nics one setup dhcp other defaulted to roaming... | 09:20 |
| jonathan_ | the clients don't see a dhcp server | 09:20 |
| pygi | meh, we should write that somewhere (or did we already?) | 09:21 |
| jonathan_ | how should the second nic be setup? | 09:21 |
| pygi | I think it's pretty common problem | 09:21 |
| jonathan_ | Do I have to change the dhcpd.conf for my setup? | 09:27 |
| pygi | /opt/ltsp/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf | 09:27 |
| pygi | perhaps, or something | 09:27 |
| jonathan_ | So out of the box, with 2 nics installed, Edubuntu doesn't play... | 09:28 |
| === bdoin [n=coudoin@home.gcompris.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| LaserJock | jonathan_: I think it's supposed to work out of the box | 09:29 |
| LaserJock | but I'm not positive | 09:29 |
| LaserJock | you might look in http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/handbook/C/ | 09:30 |
| tristan_ | http://www.edubuntu.org/images/ltsp_inet.png <- it's the suggested config? | 09:30 |
| jonathan_ | tristan yes that's my setup | 09:30 |
| tristan_ | i want to use that setup to | 09:30 |
| jonathan_ | i setup eth1 as dhcp going out to the internets | 09:30 |
| jonathan_ | it did not ask me to setup eth0 | 09:31 |
| tristan_ | but in my setup the server also gonna be the webserver voor chillispot | 09:31 |
| jonathan_ | so when i took a look at it in networking, it notated it was roaming | 09:31 |
| LaserJock | yeah, I'm wondering about that | 09:31 |
| jonathan_ | Laserjock the documentation you gave does not tell you what to do w/ the second nic | 09:31 |
| jonathan_ | checking out some threads... it notates to put a nic at 192.168.0.1 | 09:35 |
