| john_s | hello all-- any SAMBA gurus's on this list perchance | 12:36 |
|---|---|---|
| john_s | ? | 12:36 |
| sbalneav | I know one or two things about samba | 12:38 |
| sbalneav | what do you need? | 12:38 |
| john_s | I need to use ldap to store my samba/winbind backend | 12:38 |
| john_s | and I don't know how to migrate my accounts | 12:38 |
| sbalneav | Ah, what you'r looking for is moquists and trasks tool | 12:42 |
| john_s | Perhaps. | 12:42 |
| john_s | I've looked at it | 12:42 |
| john_s | but i don't think its a migration tool | 12:42 |
| john_s | I think its a "set up a bdc/pdc" type of thing | 12:42 |
| john_s | Does it do migration? | 12:42 |
| sbalneav | I thought so. | 12:43 |
| john_s | hm | 12:43 |
| john_s | Ok, I have an email into david. | 12:43 |
| sbalneav | Migrating from /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow? | 12:43 |
| john_s | Well no, this would be like winbindsecrets.tdb and sam.tdb | 12:43 |
| john_s | I believe | 12:43 |
| sbalneav | ah, so migrating from windows. | 12:44 |
| sbalneav | I'd be lost there. | 12:44 |
| john_s | well, yes and no | 12:44 |
| john_s | When you use winbind to use Active Directory for authentication you get these little databases | 12:44 |
| john_s | like /var/cache/samba/winbindd_cache.tdb | 12:45 |
| john_s | and that is good. Now if you want to scale it to more than one server you need to make it a centralized resource | 12:45 |
| john_s | Samba docs say to use LDAP generally | 12:45 |
| sbalneav | Well, I'd expect there'd be some tool to extract info from the .tdb | 12:46 |
| john_s | Yeah, me to. That's sort of my question. | 12:46 |
| john_s | :-) | 12:46 |
| sbalneav | hmm | 12:46 |
| sbalneav | If anyone, Trask would know. | 12:47 |
| sbalneav | I'm sure he'll steer you right. | 12:47 |
| john_s | Ok, good. Well hopefully he'll shoot me an email. | 12:47 |
| sbalneav | He will, he's a great guy. | 12:47 |
| john_s | I appreciate your responses | 12:47 |
| sbalneav | Look for him here and on #ltsp | 12:47 |
| john_s | hurray! | 12:47 |
| sbalneav | he sometimes idles. | 12:47 |
| john_s | will do. | 12:47 |
| john_s | Thanks again. bye | 12:48 |
| sbalneav | bye | 12:48 |

| Burgundavia | etank: 500mhz is plenty powerful enough for a thin client | 02:22 |
| etank | but these are going to be give to individual families | 02:22 |
| etank | thin client wont work | 02:22 |
| etank | and i will have no way of knowing if the new owner will have access to the internet so i have to get all of the apps installed on there before giving them away | 02:23 |
| Burgundavia | ahh | 02:24 |

| sbalneav | Wife's not feeling well, so I had to cook my own birthday dinner LOL | 02:28 |
| sbalneav | Got just what I wanted: Big juicy steak, baguette with oven roasted garlic butter, and corn on the cob. | 02:29 |
| sbalneav | Yum! | 02:29 |
| Burgundavia | congrats | 02:31 |

| moquist | sbalneav: will there be a config option to set the ldm greeter in your implementation? I've been talking with gadi, and we think it would be a good idea. | 04:16 |
| sbalneav | Well, lets see. | 04:16 |
| sbalneav | I'm setting display options | 04:16 |
| sbalneav | sound options | 04:16 |
| sbalneav | localdev options | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | ... | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | Nope, sorry, run out of room in the code. | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | The only greeter will be in black and white. | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | :) | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | On my list :) | 04:17 |
| sbalneav | ogra wanted a QT greeter for K environs, GTK for gnome, and a "low resource" one if we have time. | 04:18 |
| sbalneav | So, yeah, customizable greeter program's a go. | 04:18 |
| sbalneav | Just haven't done it yet. Spent the last two or 3 days hunting down a nasty bug with pty's | 04:19 |
| sbalneav | john_: That a winmodem? | 04:19 |
| trisha | anyone here knows how to activate fvwm95 x -window? | 04:20 |
| sbalneav | Sure, just set yourself up a .xsession file. | 04:20 |
| sbalneav | in your home dir. | 04:20 |
| sbalneav | Have you installed fvwm95 yet> | 04:22 |
| sbalneav | ? | 04:22 |
| trisha | sbalneav: yah | 04:22 |
| trisha | sbalneav: but im still using ubuntu 7.04 as my distro | 04:23 |
| sbalneav | A quick bit of googling turned this up | 04:23 |
| sbalneav | http://www.ews.uiuc.edu/~fvwm/manual/fvwm95.xsession | 04:23 |
| sbalneav | save what in your home dir as .xsession | 04:23 |
| sbalneav | mode 755 | 04:23 |
| sbalneav | Hmm | 04:24 |
| sbalneav | it ma | 04:24 |
| trisha | sbalneav: i dont get it | 04:24 |
| sbalneav | it may actually provide a session. | 04:24 |
| sbalneav | hold on, lemme look | 04:24 |
| trisha | sbalneav: you mean i have to copy paste the page and save it at home dir. | 04:25 |
| sbalneav | Doesn't look like there's a package for it. | 04:25 |
| sbalneav | How did you install fvwm95? | 04:25 |
| trisha | using synaptic | 04:25 |
| sbalneav | Hmm, I'm running gutsy here, and I don't see it. | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | ok | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | When you go to log in, does it show up in the sessions chooser? | 04:26 |
| trisha | yah | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | on the login screen? | 04:26 |
| trisha | yah | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | Oh, ok, then just select it. | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | and log in | 04:26 |
| trisha | what? | 04:26 |
| sbalneav | Just select that as your session, and log in | 04:27 |
| trisha | what should i select? | 04:27 |
| sbalneav | You said it showed up in the sessions chooser when you logged in. | 04:28 |
| sbalneav | So select fvwm95 | 04:28 |

| === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| sbalneav | trisha: fvwm95 is SO old, you may have a few troubles getting support for modern stuff. | 05:31 |
| sbalneav | Any reason why you want to use it? | 05:31 |
| trisha | it saves memory | 05:32 |
| sbalneav | How much memory do you have in this machine? | 05:33 |
| trisha | im running ubuntu distro 7.04 i only have 256mb and i still wanna use it in other application | 05:33 |
| crimsun | I'm unsure whether he's referring to fvwm 2.[45] or the older fvwm95. | 05:34 |
| sbalneav | Oh, 256 megs? You've got lots to run Gnome | 05:34 |
| trisha | according to feedback it is still the best x-window | 05:34 |
| sbalneav | Which, fvwm95? | 05:34 |
| trisha | fvwm | 05:35 |
| sbalneav | Who are you getting this feedback from? :) | 05:35 |
| trisha | fvwm-crystal | 05:35 |
| trisha | ubuntu.org | 05:35 |
| sbalneav | Never seen it. | 05:36 |
| sbalneav | Well, if it works for you... | 05:36 |
| jsgotangco | fvwm really? | 05:42 |
| LaserJock | trisha: openbox would be much better for you I think | 05:49 |
| crimsun | nah, aewm. | 05:49 |
| crimsun | or ion2 | 05:49 |
| LaserJock | actually, with 256MB of ram xfce4 should be fine | 05:50 |
| crimsun | it's tolerable | 05:50 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: I tried those too, but I like openbox the best for minimalist WMs | 05:50 |
| LaserJock | I run full Ubuntu on a 1.3GHz machine with 256MB of RAM | 05:50 |
| crimsun | it's not a minimalist WM. | 05:51 |
| LaserJock | it's very tolerable | 05:51 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: true | 05:51 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: it's a bit relative | 05:51 |
| LaserJock | compared to to Gnome and KDE it's pretty minimalist | 05:52 |
| crimsun | do you mean metacity and kwin? | 05:52 |
| LaserJock | no | 05:52 |
| LaserJock | I mean Gnome and KDE | 05:52 |
| crimsun | you can't compare entire environments to a window manager. It's trivially obvious that the latter class is "minimalist" to the former. | 05:53 |
| LaserJock | well yes | 05:53 |
| LaserJock | but that's what people compare too | 05:53 |
| LaserJock | "I'm running Ubuntu and I'd like something lighter" | 05:53 |
| crimsun | I don't think it applies in this context given the discussion WRT "fvwm-crystal". | 05:53 |
| LaserJock | well, it seemed to me that the trisha was looking for something lighter than default Ubuntu | 05:54 |
| LaserJock | anyway, I understand what you're saying | 05:54 |

| ludoRA | I think that it could be a good idea have this soft on edubuntu | 05:51 |
| ludoRA | but I don't know how the developper have to make for this | 05:52 |
| ludoRA | "sorry for my english speaking" | 05:52 |
| pips1 | is the source code available under an open source license? | 05:52 |
| ludoRA | yes | 05:53 |

| pips1 | that helps :-) | 05:53 |
| pips1 | for distributing an application as part of a gnu/linux distribution, you need to "package" the software... I hope I'm not stating the obvious to you :-) | 05:55 |
| ludoRA | but, they can't package it for all distribution | 05:57 |
| pips1 | there is a defined process on how to do that for ubuntu... there are various different "groups" / repositories for software | 05:57 |
| pips1 | no, they can't | 05:57 |
| ludoRA | where can I found this? | 05:57 |
| pips1 | In many cases, the actual developers of a software don't do the packaging, but concentrate on writing the code :-) | 05:58 |
| ludoRA | Yes, I know | 05:58 |
| ludoRA | so, they have to find a packager | 05:58 |
| ludoRA | a packager that test this package on testing repositories | 05:59 |
| pips1 | yes, that would be great | 05:59 |
| pips1 | in general, there are two main types of packages for gnu/linux distributions: "rpm" and "deb" packages | 06:00 |
| ludoRA | where can I found a "manual" for integrate a new soft on edubuntu | 06:00 |
| ludoRA | but debian's .deb is not the same than a ubuntu's .deb | 06:01 |
| LaserJock | they are very similar | 06:01 |
| LaserJock | and use the same package format, it's just a matter of the environment they build on really | 06:01 |
| pips1 | well, ubuntu has diveded their software into so-called components / repositories: main, restricted, universe | 06:01 |
| ludoRA | I know, but's it's not really right for fedora's and mandriva's rpm | 06:01 |
| pips1 | introduction about ubuntu's components : http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components | 06:02 |
| LaserJock | no, .debs and .rpms are fairly different | 06:02 |
| sbalneav | ogra: Nice!!! | 06:03 |
| ogra | *sigh* that was the longes bzr push ever ... | 06:03 |
| sbalneav | Hey, did you try the 377 version of LDM? | 06:03 |
| LaserJock | although you can sometimes use alien to convert between them, but it's not perfect | 06:03 |
| ogra | sbalneav, https://code.launchpad.net/~ogra/ltsp/scotts-gutsy-ogra | 06:03 |
| ogra | please merge the last two changes as soon as they show up ... | 06:03 |
| sbalneav | hokey doke | 06:03 |
| ogra | i'll put in the packaging changes to make ldm2 the default there as well | 06:03 |
| sbalneav | did that fix the keyboard stuff? | 06:03 |
| ogra | yeah, all fine now | 06:04 |
| sbalneav | AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA | 06:04 |
| === sbalneav does happy dance | ||
| ogra | only the issue with the wrong passwords is left | 06:04 |
| pips1 | ludoRA: LaserJock is a packager, so he will be able to tell you all about packaging :-) | 06:04 |
| LaserJock | heh | 06:04 |
| LaserJock | ogra: btw, will you be around for the TB meeting at 19:00UTC? | 06:05 |
| ogra | and the autologin needs some way to shut down the whole thing ... its quite odd that you have to hit the powerbutton to get out of the session | 06:05 |
| pips1 | LaserJock: didn't you start this this mentoring thing? | 06:05 |
| ogra | LaserJock, today ? | 06:05 |
| ogra | if i'm needed i'll be there :) | 06:05 |
| LaserJock | ogra: yes | 06:05 |
| LaserJock | well, I haven't heard from the TB, but I assume my interview is today | 06:05 |
| ogra | great, i'll be there :) | 06:06 |
| pips1 | wow | 06:07 |
| pips1 | Laser do you need fan support ? | 06:07 |
| pips1 | :-) | 06:07 |
| LaserJock | not sure | 06:07 |
| LaserJock | I think it's just supposed to be a short interview, I've already been approved by the MOTU Council | 06:08 |
| ludoRA | LaserJock: have you seen this application: http://www-evasion.imag.fr/mobinet/ | 06:08 |
| LaserJock | no, interesting | 06:09 |
| pips1 | ludoRA: info about packaging: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New | 06:09 |
| pips1 | LaserJock: is that page ^^^ relevant and up to date? | 06:10 |
| LaserJock | kinda | 06:11 |
| LaserJock | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Documentation is good | 06:11 |
| pips1 | ah | 06:11 |
| LaserJock | also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Mentoring | 06:11 |
| LaserJock | ogra: Keybuk is a little uncertain if there will actually be a TB meeting today, but if there is I'll be on the agenda | 06:14 |
| ogra | good | 06:14 |
| LaserJock | so I'll just ping you | 06:14 |
| ogra | i'll keep an eye on the channel | 06:14 |
| pips1 | hmm, since you said it's probably more a formal thing (?), I might skip the fan part, if that's ok with you? :-) | 06:14 |
| pips1 | you know i'm a fan :-) | 06:15 |
| === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ludoRA | thanks for all this links LaserJock | 06:15 |
| LaserJock | ludoRA: if you need help with learning to package #ubuntu-motu is a great place | 06:16 |
| LaserJock | that application looks pretty cool | 06:16 |
| ludoRA | thanks LaserJock | 06:18 |
| pips1 | ludoRA: just out of curiosity, have you looked at other linux distros? did you approach them too? or first here? :-) | 06:23 |
| === jjanolo [n=jjanolo1@pool-71-105-110-117.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ludoRA | first here | 06:28 |
| ludoRA | but I'm contacting debian too | 06:28 |
| ludoRA | at this moment | 06:28 |
| pips1 | good to hear :-) | 06:28 |
| pips1 | may I ask why first here? | 06:29 |
| pips1 | and can I ask, did you find it difficult to find your way here? | 06:29 |
| ludoRA | my way to go to irc??? | 06:30 |
| pips1 | yes, this channel :-) | 06:30 |
| ludoRA | no, i didn't | 06:31 |
| ludoRA | but, speaking english is very difficult for me | 06:31 |
| cliebow_ | you are doing very well | 06:31 |
| pips1 | I see. There are quite a few people around where English isn't their first language... | 06:31 |
| pips1 | ... so you aren't alone :-) | 06:32 |
| pips1 | besides that language, what do you find difficult? | 06:32 |
| ludoRA | it's very simple for me using all web applications | 06:33 |
| pips1 | (sorry for all those questions - but I want to learn how we can make it easier for people to approach our project) | 06:33 |
| ludoRA | so, I had no difficulty for this | 06:34 |
| ludoRA | I'm on french Ubuntu site and irc | 06:34 |
| ludoRA | for few months ago | 06:34 |
| pips1 | so how did you find this channel exactly? and why did you decide to approach edubuntu first? | 06:35 |
| pips1 | ah, you know ubuntu first :-) | 06:35 |
| ludoRA | yes | 06:35 |
| pips1 | i see | 06:35 |
| ludoRA | I were on ubuntu's french irc | 06:36 |
| pips1 | ok | 06:36 |
| pips1 | is it an active channel? | 06:36 |
| ludoRA | and I seen edubuntu canal in freenode list | 06:36 |
| pips1 | ah, ok | 06:36 |
| ludoRA | yes, it's an very active channel | 06:36 |
| pips1 | :-) | 06:37 |
| ludoRA | so, I'd prefer to post on #Kubuntu-fr | 06:37 |
| ludoRA | ;-) | 06:37 |
| ludoRA | there are less people | 06:37 |
| ludoRA | and questions | 06:37 |
| pips1 | less than ? here? | 06:37 |
| ludoRA | less than #Ubuntu-fr | 06:37 |
| pips1 | understood | 06:38 |
| === pips1 counts 192 noses currently in ubuntu-fr | ||
| pips1 | pips1 counts 34 noses currently in kubuntu-fr | 06:39 |
| ludoRA | yes | 06:39 |
| === LaserJock wonders why pips1 is counting noses | ||
| LaserJock | I counted feet and divided by 2 ;-) | 06:40 |
| pips1 | hehe | 06:40 |
| pips1 | ah, scientists ;-) | 06:40 |
| LaserJock | well, if I was taking that approach: | 06:41 |
| === Rondom [n=Rondom@p57A96099.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| LaserJock | I would use the laser to see how many people cross a specific line | 06:41 |
| LaserJock | and using the volume of the room and the average velocity of a human being in such a room | 06:42 |
| LaserJock | I'd come up with a 95% confidence limit on the probability that there were X number of people in the room | 06:42 |
| === ogra hopes LaserJock doesnt mount it in eye height | ||
| pips1 | LOL | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | ogra: good point | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | we try to avoid putting the laser at eye height at both standing and sitting positions | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | in my lab it's almost exactly at eye height when sitting :/ | 06:43 |
| pips1 | pffft | 06:44 |
| pips1 | unbelievable | 06:44 |
| LaserJock | well, we just don't sit that often ;-) | 06:44 |
| pips1 | nobody of your height then? | 06:45 |
| pips1 | ahh, right | 06:45 |
| pips1 | but still | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | the table that the laser sits on is 2 ton stainless steel with massive legs | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | we can't do a lot about adjusting it | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | so we have stools that are a bit higher than a normal chair | 06:46 |
| LaserJock | like a bar stool | 06:46 |
| === pips1 imagines Laserjock and a group of fellow laser scientists gathering around the 2 ton table... now, on 3, and a 1, 2, 3, ... | ||
| pips1 | heave! | 06:47 |
| pips1 | quick, get that book under | 06:47 |
| LaserJock | hahahaha | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | the legs alone are rather heavy | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | they are special to remove any vibration from earthquakes | 06:49 |
| pips1 | hmm | 06:49 |
| pips1 | so, in case of a big earthquake.. would you snatch yourself one of those legs and stand on top? | 06:50 |
| === pips1 is obviously doing something very boring at his day job right now ;-) | ||
| LaserJock | heh | 06:51 |
| pips1 | yeah, that's it. I better go now and get this *#! finished | 06:52 |
| pips1 | :-) | 06:52 |
| pips1 | see you! | 06:52 |
| LaserJock | geeze, I'm becoming a programming nerd | 06:53 |
| LaserJock | I read that as a #! and thought he was doing programming | 06:54 |

| ogra | heh | 10:01 |
| cliebow_ | ogra: so what did i screw up updating to feisty? on ssh login -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied..lets me in after a ctrl-C just the same | 10:02 |
| ogra | cliebow_, if you said that with 'currency == bugs' in mind thats true :P | 10:02 |
| ogra | cliebow_, did you use update-manager ? | 10:03 |
| ogra | sounds like an udev breakage | 10:04 |
| cliebow_ | ogra:i did until i started getting little squares instead of letters.. | 10:04 |
| ogra | that was from edgy to feisty ? | 10:04 |
| crimsun | yeah, I've seen that with /dev/null not being 666 | 10:04 |
| cliebow_ | i kept pushing the right buttons i think | 10:04 |
| cliebow_ | i did 666 /dev/null and it went away til; reboot | 10:05 |
| ogra | yeah, seems udev has gotten something wrong there | 10:05 |
| crimsun | should be an old udev bug about this | 10:05 |
| cliebow_ | im gonna leave it til tomorrow i guess..getting woozy | 10:06 |
| cliebow_ | freenx went south on me so i cant tell what is up without driving up there..so tomorrow itis | 10:06 |
