| sbalneav | Turns out I did most of it in one day. | 05:38 |
| LaserJock | rock ON! | 05:38 |
| sbalneav | Some kind soul in #gtk+ turned me on to JUST the right call I needed. | 05:39 |
| sbalneav | I'm hoping to have a first cut of an ldm that can handle bad passwords, and password expiry's by Sunday, if I'm lucky. | 05:39 |
| nixternal | crimsun: ya, I just installed dhcpcd and it seems I have internet | 05:41 |
| nixternal | don't know why it was uninstalled | 05:41 |

| andrew____ | trying to set up edubuntu server and the thin client is registereing its DHCP IP address but reporting a "FILE NOT FOUND" error. | 06:24 |
| andrew____ | When I look in /opt folder on the server, it's empty... | 06:25 |
| sbalneav | Have you done an ltsp-update-kernels? | 06:25 |
| andrew____ | let me try that... | 06:25 |
| sbalneav | If /opt is empty, you've got no ltsp at all | 06:25 |
| sbalneav | ltsp-build-client in that case | 06:25 |
| andrew____ | but my package manager says it's installed | 06:26 |
| andrew____ | ah... | 06:26 |
| sbalneav | the packages are installed, but you haven't built the chroot | 06:26 |
| andrew____ | yes...it's building now! | 06:27 |
| andrew____ | I built it on top of ubuntu, rather than installing from edubuntu server distro... | 06:28 |
| sbalneav | Right, that was the problem. | 06:29 |
| sbalneav | the ltsp chroot gets built at server install time. | 06:29 |
| andrew____ | how do I return to fix the pixel dimensions I set. I accidentally limited things to the highest resolution. | 06:29 |
| sbalneav | system->preferences->screen resolution | 06:30 |
| andrew____ | I used apt-get install edubuntu-server | 06:30 |
| andrew____ | Aren't the dropdown parameters determined by a config file? I've got a high resolution monitor and it's dimensions don't appear... | 06:31 |
| sbalneav | You could do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, I beleive | 06:32 |
| andrew____ | also, is it normal for the graphics to be "laggy" in an x terminal? I'm running edubuntu desktop GUI on my server install and the screen refresh time is really slow... | 06:33 |
| sbalneav | Depends how fast the X box is. | 06:34 |
| sbalneav | Things will be a little slower. Encryptions being used, the X is being tunneled over ssh. | 06:35 |
| sbalneav | In the next version (gutsy) you'll have the option of going unencrypted for speed. | 06:35 |
| andrew____ | Even when it's happenning on the same machine, correct? | 06:35 |
| andrew____ | I've got the thin client booting now. Hoooray. | 06:37 |
| sbalneav | Sorry, are you talking about slow screen on a thin client, or on the server? | 06:37 |
| andrew____ | On the server | 06:37 |
| andrew____ | Dragging windows creates horrible trails... | 06:38 |
| sbalneav | What kind of video card do you have? | 06:38 |
| andrew____ | Its an onboard, cheap one. | 06:40 |
| sbalneav | Might want to check your xorg.conf, maybe it used the vesa driver | 06:40 |
| andrew____ | where is that file again? | 06:40 |
| sbalneav | /etc/X11/ | 06:41 |
| andrew____ | So I'd want to switch the driver to....? | 06:41 |
| sbalneav | "An onboard, cheap one", whatever that is. | 06:42 |
| andrew____ | sorry, I'm a bit dense...looking at the device manager doesn't reveal anything about the video card...is this to be expected if it has a generic driver? | 06:44 |
| andrew____ | Another issue, the thin client screen is shifted about 4" left of where it should be. | 06:48 |
| sbalneav | Flatpanel? | 06:50 |
| andrew____ | yes | 06:51 |
| sbalneav | lspci should tell you what kind of card you have. | 06:51 |
| sbalneav | just hit the auto button | 06:51 |
| andrew____ | VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UniChrome Pro IGP (rev 01) | 06:51 |
| andrew____ | "auto button" ? | 06:52 |
| sbalneav | So, you'll want driver "via" | 06:53 |
| sbalneav | Most flatpanel LCD monitors have an "auto" button for syncing resolution. | 06:53 |
| andrew____ | This is a TV | 06:53 |
| sbalneav | You connecting through the svideo connector? | 06:54 |
| andrew____ | VGA | 06:54 |
| sbalneav | Could be it's not reporting the DCC information correctly | 06:55 |

| ath | I have just begun to investigate edubuntu and I am stuck on some things. I was wondering if comeone could help out | 09:03 |
| ath | I have never used irc before, how does this work, am I doing it right? | 09:04 |
| stgraber | ath: maybe I can | 09:04 |
| ath | thank you for trying | 09:05 |
| ath | I installed edubuntu on a virtual machine first off | 09:05 |
| ath | now how do I get the thin clients to boot on the other machines? | 09:06 |
| ath | Do I have to set the bios to boot into a network? | 09:06 |
| stgraber | yes you have to | 09:07 |
| stgraber | or if you can't you'll have to download a PXE boot floppy from rom-o-matic | 09:07 |
| stgraber | on your edubuntu server you should have two network cards, the first one connected to the outdoor (wan/public lan) and the other on which a dhcp server will be set for the thin clients | 09:07 |
| stgraber | then connect your clients to the second one and boot them on the network either by using the BIOS PXE option (boot on lan) or the floppy | 09:08 |
| ath | is it necessary to have 2 network cards | 09:08 |
| stgraber | it's easier but no it's not necessary | 09:08 |

| stgraber | It's pretty weird, from what I understand and checked there is nothing wrong :) | 09:13 |

| sbalneav | Who's the maintainer for the nbd-server package? | 10:35 |
| sbalneav | I'm almost wondering if our newly minted core developer might not take that one over. | 10:36 |
| sbalneav | seeing as how we're pretty much the only project that's actually USING the nbd stuff | 10:36 |
| LaserJock | StevenK last touched it in Ubuntu | 10:36 |
| stgraber | Maintened by Wouter Verhelst (debian), uploaded by stevenk | 10:36 |
