[05:01] great Dapper has VERY OLD FUSE [05:03] : [05:03] :) [05:04] sbalneav: i'm trying to build something in ec2 that requires fuse so i can do gluster [05:04] but it seems it wants fuse 2.6.x up [05:04] heh === Athanasius [n=ath@c-68-62-50-110.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has joined #edubuntu [05:09] I just installed edubuntu and I cannot get the thin client to boot. I will get to the splash screen but then the progress bar doesn't move and then the screen goes blank with a blinking cursor at the top left, [05:11] Can somebody help me out? [05:12] Athanasius: What version of Edubuntu are you using? [05:13] 7.04 [05:14] take a look at the file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default [05:14] create a backup of this file somewhere, and then remove the keywords "quiet" and "splash" [05:15] That way, you'll see all the messages as it comes up, hopefully that will tell us more [05:15] uuh, I can't find it. I have to look [05:18] Found it? [05:18] ok, so do I just restart the thin client? [05:18] yes, i found it [05:18] yep [05:19] there is still a splash screen === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu [05:20] perhaps restart the dhcp server? [05:21] No [05:21] Shouldn't need to. [05:21] can you paste the file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default to the pastebin? [05:21] !pastebin [05:21] pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) [05:22] ok, I will try again [05:23] actually, all it says is: DEFAULT vmlinuz ro initrd=initrd.img [05:23] there is nothing else [05:24] You shouldn't have any splash then. [05:26] is there another way to see what is being loaded? [05:26] This the only edubuntu server you've got? [05:26] let me see.... [05:27] I also have KDE desktop installed as the default and the splash that is coming up is Kubuntu [05:28] but when I had edubuntu as default the problem was the same [05:31] Paste your /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file to the pastebin [05:31] there is also a file named: vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-386 - does that mean that I should be booting into the 2.6.20-15 kernel instead of the 20-16 that I am currently using? [05:31] ok [05:31] So, this isn't a fresh install of edubuntu? [05:32] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29748/ [05:33] It is still set to the default [05:34] Maybe you can tell me a little about your network? i.e. if theres another dhcp server, what the ip addresses of the edubuntu server are, what kind of internet connection you've got, etc? [05:36] I have the two network cards that is recommended for edubuntu. eth0 goes to the router which is set for a static ip [05:37] WHat are the ip addresses of the two cards? [05:37] eth0 is set at 192.168.1.1 as the router and 192...101 as the server. [05:38] eth1 goes to the thin client with a default ip of 192.168.0.101 [05:39] eth1 is also static [05:39] Athanasius: well, that's within the range that the dhcp server hands out addresses in. [05:39] it all sounds right to me as well [05:39] best to make it either .1 or .254 [05:40] eth1 as 192.168.0.1 ? [05:40] Personally, I prefer to make it .254 myself, but .1 is fine. [05:41] what is the difference? [05:42] Nothing, only usually debian/ubuntu defaults assume .1 is a router, so I usually try to avoid putting a server on .1 [05:42] but it's purely a matter of taste. [05:42] But the point is, the dhcp server will hand out addresses between .20 and .250 [05:43] so you'll want to make sure the static IP address isn't within that range. [05:43] i see [05:43] So, change the IP address of the static eth1, then try restarting your dhcpd server with invoke-rc.d dhcp3-server restart [05:45] ok, I will try it [05:46] what should the broadcast ip be if I change it to 192.168.0.254? [05:47] 192.168.0.255 [05:47] same as before [05:47] ok [05:48] how about default gateway? [05:48] Don't need one. Your thin clients only talk to the server, not to the outside world. [05:49] ok [05:51] i will see how it boots now === bonbonthejon [n=jon@cpe-69-133-37-32.cinci.res.rr.com] has joined #edubuntu [05:52] again, just a splash screen then nothing [05:53] can I also use: sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart ? [05:53] What files have you got in the /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg dir? [05:53] just the default? [05:53] or did you copy the backup there too? [05:53] the way you restarted it is fine as well. [05:54] the backups are there with the default file [05:54] heh [05:54] ok, move the backup out of there, JUST have the default file. [05:54] ok [05:55] done [05:56] restart the TC [05:57] ok [05:58] no dice... I will look for something here for a minute [06:02] I am trying something [06:04] sbalneav - actually it seems to be hanging up with a USB issue, the keyboard is USB [06:05] Try a ps/2 keyboard then [06:05] i am [06:06] it doesn't like the usb mouse either [06:08] now it is hanging up on the eth0 card. It is not booting from that card (it is not bootable) but from eth1 [06:09] maybe I can turn the card off from the bios [06:11] disabling the lan [06:13] ok, now I see the ubuntu login on the thin client [06:13] how do I add users? Is it just like adding one on the desktop or is there a different way? [06:18] Just add them like you normally would [06:23] I cannot logon to another user in the thin client, I can log on myself, is there a certain user group that the new account has to be a memeber of? [06:25] Nope [06:25] If they want to be able to use localdevs, they'll nned to belong to fuse, but other than that, no. [06:25] Can this other user log in on the console? [06:25] ok, well you have helped me immensly [06:26] thank you very much [06:26] No problem. [06:26] apart from .edu.au and .gov.au, can anyone think of some sure-to-be-safe TLD's that [c,sh] ould be whitelisted in dans? [06:28] heh [06:28] Dunno much about DG. [06:45] ok. [06:45] any thoughts on apps/suits to install on a computer for a 5 year old? [06:45] would there be stuff on the wiki? [06:46] Stuff that comes with edubuntu's pretty good. [06:46] gCompris is great for little kids [06:46] its a work ubuntu computer, so i dont want to edubuntu it, but i could probably pull some stuff out of the meta package [06:46] thanks for the ideas :) === bria [n=chatzill@CPE-58-168-63-67.nsw.bigpond.net.au] has joined #edubuntu === jbrefort [n=jean@pot44-1-88-172-65-1.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu [07:35] good morning everyone :) === Kamping_Kaiser [n=kgoetz@gnewsense/friend/kgoetz] has joined #edubuntu === aze [n=aze@79.52.78.208.dyn-ip.domaccess.com] has joined #edubuntu [08:44] good morning ogra :) === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu === jack_wyt_ [n=jack@124.64.105.7] has joined #edubuntu === andrea__ [n=andrea@host185-175.pool8250.interbusiness.it] has joined #edubuntu === pips1 [n=philipp@195.216.81.229] has joined #edubuntu [09:27] good morning [09:28] hi === jbrefort [n=jean@pot44-1-88-172-65-1.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu === RichEd-1 is now known as RichEd [10:08] ogra: you in here mate?
