a5benwillisello?04:51
bonbonthejonhi04:52
a5benwillisIm at an Education Tech Conference and have heard a lot of talk about edubuntu today. Of course Ive been using it a wile. I just thought I would share :-)04:53
a5benwillis.04:53
sbalneavGood things, I hope? :)04:53
a5benwillisI also had dinner with a GM from DELL computers. We had a loong conversation about edubuntu.04:54
a5benwillissbalneav: Mostly good04:54
sbalneavWhat were the bad things?04:54
a5benwillisthe presenter said he didnt recomend it for a beginner because it lacked some things but should be ready with the next release?04:54
sbalneavWhat things did he say it lacked?04:55
a5benwillisSound support for different hardware04:55
a5benwillisissues with the ssl login04:55
a5benwilliscant remember the others if any04:55
a5benwillisThe dinner with Dell was very interesting.04:55
sbalneavWhich issues with the login?  I'm interested in those particularly, as I'm re-writing it now.04:55
a5benwillisHe tells me that Dell's trying to work out a deal to provide the hardware and ubuntu with a support contract to k-1204:56
a5benwillissbalneav: Even I've have huge issues with being able to authenticate against some other account databases. Novell in particular04:57
a5benwillissbalneav: I hear that theres some new code that changes the way that the login is encrypted allowing it to be more flexible??04:57
sbalneavWell, we still use ssh for the login portion, and plumbing the localdev/sound setup04:58
sbalneavbut we'll have the option of either running X over ssh, or unencrypted04:58
sbalneavso that slower workstations can avoid encrypted X04:59
a5benwillisI also had a lengthy conversation with the tech director of a medium sized school district in Washington state. He uses Edubuntu exclusively but he cant get the logins to work against his Netware servers..04:59
a5benwillissbalneav: OHHH! That reminds me af what the speaker said to a room of about 250 people.05:00
a5benwillissbalneav: Edubuntu can take up to 5 minutes to boot a client!!!05:00
a5benwillissbalneav: So he didnt think it was good for a beginner because they may think theyve done something wrong.05:00
sbalneavWe've fixed a lot of that.05:00
sbalneavDown to about 70 seconds on this 500mhz via client I'm running.05:01
a5benwillisgreat! I dont know if you recognize my name or not. But, I spent a lot of time here a few months ago working on edubuntu/netware authentication......05:01
a5benwillissbalneav: I really need to get back to my pilot project. It kind of stalled after all of that authentication work.05:02
sbalneavRight.  wonky netware pam stuff, if I remember correctly.05:02
a5benwilliscorrect "=)05:02
a5benwillissbalneav: I hear that Novell has released some new code to help with linux-netware authentication as well. This may help as well.05:03
sbalneavI've seen nothing, but then again, a lot of us are basically ignoring novell now.05:04
a5benwillisk-12 in the US still uses its fair share... It would be nice if it had more support in Edubuntu.05:05
a5benwillisI plan to start a group in my state to promote the use of open source software. I hope to be able to spread the word.05:06
a5benwillissbalneav: So when will the new login code be in place or released?05:08
sbalneavIt's already coming into the gutsy tribe releases.  I'm working on the scripted greeter now.05:09
a5benwillisthanks for the info! I guess I'll be spending more time here again as I try to get our project back online.05:10

LaserJockRichEd: is it the early meeting?09:12
RichEdyes indeed09:12
RichEd12:00 utc09:12
LaserJockok, well I know I won't be there09:13
LaserJockso, I just so an interesting forum thread on the Add-on CD09:13
LaserJocklots of questions09:13
LaserJockone was, "How do I install language support from the add-on CD"09:13
LaserJockwhich I totally didn't think about before09:14
LaserJockanother was how to get all the gcompris languages installed09:14
RichEdi'll mention the language add-on to ogra ... also the gcompris ... see if he has answers or ideas09:39
jsgotangcoRichEd: any roadmap to edubuntu community with regards to delegation of edubuntu membership, us in the CC could not keep up with the number of people09:40
RichEdjsgotangco: i'm also a bit swamped as well ... we can bring it up in the meeting today in the community section ?09:41
RichEdmy mailbox is going insane lately, with work and spam - i hardly get enough time to go though it all :(09:42
jsgotangcosure i'll try to attend, i haven't been sleeping properly the past 2 days though, was thinking of retiring early today09:42
RichEdjsgotangco: get some rest ... i know the feeling ... restless nights & interrupted sleep accumulates and interferes with immune system and concentration.09:47
RichEdso i'll bring the topic up today and let you know09:47
jsgotangcook its not really something high priority, we just have to let people know that edubuntu = ubuntu in terms of membership and probably revive the delegation powers of teams09:48
LaserJockjsgotangco: when did it ever go away?09:55
jsgotangcoit didn't09:56
jsgotangcojust lost steam on some parts i guess09:56
LaserJockhmm09:56
LaserJocktbh, I just thought we weren't just weren't attracting new members09:57
LaserJock- 1st weren't09:57
jsgotangcoeverytime after a CC we always get a complaint or two about the sched and not being accommodated of sorts09:57
LaserJockCC or EC?09:58
jsgotangcoCC09:58
LaserJockmakes sense, there are probably a lot of applications09:58
LaserJockapparently some people aren't on IRC at all TZs ;-)09:59
jsgotangcomore meetings won't solve it, delegation should especially contribution-specific applications09:59
LaserJockRichEd: the forum thread is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=484973 and I've replied the best I can10:03
LaserJockI'm off for the night10:03

happywithedI want to migrate my classroom server from an AMD64 box to more power PPC64 box.  I will retire the AMD64 completely as it is making all kinds of noises.  So I do want to tranfer everything from that box to the PPC64.  I already installed the classroom server on the PPC64 and confirmed that my clients can connect.  The next steps are to transfer the Ldif database and the NFS. I have serveral questions on this regard.06:16
ogracliebow is a good ldap guy :)06:16
happywithedQ1) I remember that you have to use the slapcat and slapadd commands to transfer the files from one system to the other.  In what directory do I have to do that in the AMD64 and the PPC64?06:17
happywithedQ2) How do I tranfer all of the NFS data from the AMD64 to the PCC64? Do I just have to copy the /home directory?  Will that suffice?06:18
happywithedQ3) Is there anything else I need to do? besides that?06:19
happywithedQ4) It would be nice if I could do some replication of my PPC64 into another machine so that I don't have to do this in the future if my PPC64 goes bad on me, too.  Are there any scripts for replication of the Edubuntu classroom server available?06:20

cliebowkernel updates seem to assume one's install is in hd 0,0 this seem logical?09:54
LaserJockwhat do you mean?09:55
cliebowit causes a stir if your install id 0,209:55
ograkernel updtaes use whats in your grub config09:55
cliebowhmmm..i couldnt even use memtest affter kernel update without specifying correct partiton..09:56

sperotekhey, i just installed edubuntu 7.04 to fix the local devices (flash drives) problems I was having on thin clients yesterday. However, the flash drives still don't show up, so I looked at the lts.conf file, and it says localdev=true. Any help?10:30
ograhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/EnableLTSP5LocalDevices10:32
ogradid you check that ?10:32
speroteki thought my admin account would already let me do everything, like allow use of fuse filesystems10:35
sperotekwhat is a fuse filesystem?10:35
ografuse is the abbreviation of "filesystem in userspace" its the underlying architecture of ltspfs which is teh network filesystem ltsp uses for local device access10:36
sperotekwow perfect, thanks, well written guide :)10:42
ograthanks :)10:44
