edunewbieNew ethernet wire, but I know it works from testing with another computer.  Firefox won't connect.  The ethernet option won't let me configure and the loopback option doesn't seem to work.  It seems to be an IP problem, but don't know how to resolve.06:27

edistarogra: feisty09:56
edistarogra: student-control-panel doesn't work either..09:57
edistarit needs x11vnc but I have installed that already09:57
ogradid you read that ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallX11VncOnLtspClients09:58
ograx11vnc needs to be installed in the client environment09:59
ogranot on the server09:59
edistarogra: how do I do that?10:00

ograeasiest is to copy /etc/apt/sources.list from the server to the chroot10:03
ograand run apt-get update10:03
ogra(in the chroot)10:03
edistarokey10:03
edistarlooks good10:05
edistarldap managment is lat or gq?10:09

edistarogra: in between it works sometimes10:20
edistarcan anyone help?10:21
edistarit really doesn't work very well..10:24
=== Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #edubuntu
RichEdedistar: we're in the edubuntu meeting ... that's why ogra is busy and not here ...10:30
ograedistar, how many clients do you try to display there ?10:30
ogra(simultaneously)10:30
edistarogra: one!10:31
edistarit doesn't work, really it doesn't :(10:31
edistarI locked one and then unlocked.. it didn't want to unlock anymore, just a black screen10:31
ograweird10:32
edistarsecondly...: it gives a warning at the boot that it is running x11vnc without a password.. I thought it generated one!10:32
ograno, it doesnt yet, thats the reason we dont install it by default10:33
ogra(the vnc stuff)10:33
edistarogra: now it works again..10:34
edistarsometimes it just stops working10:35
ograyou can tr to set different options for the X11vnc call in the rc script ...10:35
ograi.e. restrict the size of the vnc windows .... switch on compression ...10:35
edistarnice10:36
edistaris if it is stable it is good...10:36
edistarwill it be better in gutsy?10:36

edistarokey10:37

ograi havent had time to get to ThinClientManager yet (thats how we call it nowadays), cant promise anything ... and cbx33 the former maintainer doesnt work on it anymore it seems10:38
edistarhm10:38
edistarwill anyone else do that in the future?10:39
ograwell, in the end its me ... but i also build edubuntu, maintain and code ltsp upstream and in ubuntu and care for a ton of other stuff ...10:46
ograso thats not my highest priority10:47
edistarogra: that's a shame, cause that is a main point for the IT teachers at school to decide for edubuntu or windows stuff..10:50
ograi know10:50
ograbut an installable system and a not craching desktop are important as well :)10:51
ograthere are many areas to take care of10:51
ogramanagement apps are only one small piece of the pie10:51
ograand indeed any contribution is appreciated ;)10:52
edistarogra: very true :)10:52
