[05:33] <sbalneav> Evening all
[05:34] <LaserJock> hi sbalneav
[05:34] <sbalneav> Hey LaserJock!
[05:34] <LaserJock> nixternal: I got the edubuntu-about.desktop translations in
[05:35] <nixternal> rock on!
[05:35] <nixternal> right now someone uploaded a bogus dhcpd that doesn't allow me to view the intarweb
=== Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez]  has joined #edubuntu
[05:38] <crimsun> Martin touched it last.
[05:38] <crimsun> and it's dhcdbd.
[05:38] <sbalneav> I figured it was going to take WEEKS to even BEGIN to get an interactive greeter going for ldm2
[05:38] <sbalneav> Turns out I did most of it in one day.
[05:38] <LaserJock> rock ON!
[05:39] <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.
[05:41] <nixternal> crimsun: ya, I just installed dhcpcd and it seems I have internet
[05:41] <nixternal> don't know why it was uninstalled
[05:42] <crimsun> that's a very severe problem, since you shouldn't need a universe package to establish it.
[05:43] <crimsun> I'd check with lure regarding his NM changes

=== andrew____ [n=chatzill@user-12ld7dv.cable.mindspring.com]  has joined #edubuntu
[06:24] <andrew____> trying to set up edubuntu server and the thin client is registereing its DHCP IP address but reporting a "FILE NOT FOUND" error.
[06:25] <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
[06:26] <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
[06:27] <andrew____> yes...it's building now!
[06:28] <andrew____> I built it on top of ubuntu, rather than installing from edubuntu server distro...
[06:29] <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.
[06:30] <sbalneav> system->preferences->screen resolution
[06:30] <andrew____> I used apt-get install edubuntu-server
[06:31] <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...
[06:32] <sbalneav> You could do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, I beleive
[06:33] <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...
[06:34] <sbalneav> Depends how fast the X box is.
[06:35] <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?
[06:37] <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
[06:38] <andrew____> Dragging windows creates horrible trails...
[06:38] <sbalneav> What kind of video card do you have?
[06:40] <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?
[06:41] <sbalneav> /etc/X11/
[06:41] <andrew____> So I'd want to switch the driver to....?
[06:42] <sbalneav> "An onboard, cheap one", whatever that is.
[06:44] <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?
[06:48] <andrew____> Another issue, the thin client screen is shifted about 4" left of where it should be.
[06:50] <sbalneav> Flatpanel?
[06:51] <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)
[06:52] <andrew____> "auto button" ?
[06:53] <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
[06:54] <sbalneav> You connecting through the svideo connector?
[06:54] <andrew____> VGA
[06:55] <sbalneav> Could be it's not reporting the DCC information correctly

[09:03] <ath> I have just begun to investigate edubuntu and I am stuck on some things.  I was wondering if comeone could help out
[09:04] <ath> I have never used irc before, how does this work, am I doing it right?
[09:04] <stgraber> ath: maybe I can
[09:05] <ath> thank you for trying
[09:05] <ath> I installed edubuntu on a virtual machine first off
[09:06] <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?
[09:07] <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
[09:08] <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
[09:09] <stgraber> do you currently have a DHCP server installed on your network ?

[09:13] <stgraber> It's pretty weird, from what I understand and checked there is nothing wrong :)
[09:13] <stgraber> just nbd-client which doesn't do its job
[09:14] <sbalneav> the nbd-client within the chroot exececutes just seems to do nothing
[09:14] <sbalneav> There was an update to the nbd tools a few days ago, notes seemed to be something about a new upstream version.
[09:15] <sbalneav> I'm going to try and see if I can put strace into the chroot tonight, so I can strace nbd-client, and see what's happening.
