| delta16 | hey guy's | 01:47 |
|---|---|---|
| delta16 | can someone help me !? | 01:47 |
| delta16 | got a problem when trying to install from the Ubuntu CD | 01:47 |
| delta16 | i can boot , but when i get the logo with the menu | 01:48 |
| delta16 | it doesn't matther witch opetion i sellect i always gaet the error message " can not read from boot cd " ! | 01:49 |
| delta16 | anyone a solution to this !? | 01:49 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | have you run a cd check? | 01:49 |
| delta16 | it gives me the same error message | 01:50 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | have you checked the cd image with md5sum or similar? | 01:50 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | or different cd? | 01:50 |
| delta16 | nope , couse thats pretty new for me , the MD5 cheksum thing | 01:51 |
| delta16 | ho to do that !? | 01:51 |
| delta16 | im runnig ubuntu now on a VM machine on Windows XP !! | 01:51 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ubutnu has an md5sum tool, windows you have to download something | 01:51 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | so if the ubuntu can access the cd, thats a better shot | 01:52 |
| delta16 | yep it can :D | 01:52 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :) | 01:52 |
| delta16 | so how to run that tool !? | 01:52 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | in applications -> accessories -> terminal | 01:53 |
| === bluekuja [n=andrea@ubuntu/member/bluekuja] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| delta16 | sorry new to Linux i now i also get why linux is better then Windows | 01:53 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | type in `md5sum /dev/cdrom` | 01:53 |
| delta16 | Becouse ist just a couple of config files working together | 01:53 |
| === bluekuja [n=andrea@ubuntu/member/bluekuja] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| Kamping_Kaiser | i only know ohw to do such things in a terminal btw, thers probably other ways ;) | 01:54 |
| delta16 | instead of a whole registry and all the shit around it !! | 01:54 |
| delta16 | thanx man | 01:54 |
| delta16 | i'm really starting to like that treminal | 01:55 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | 'couple of configs' ... hehe | 01:55 |
| delta16 | werll as far as i know it is :D | 01:56 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | close to my bed time :( | 01:57 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | and my srync (of 15 gig of data) is still crusing along at 20k/s :( | 01:57 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ffs. i could download this faster over adsl :( | 01:58 |
| delta16 | hey keiser , do you know a good tutorial , abot using the VI editor | 01:58 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | no, not really. never used one. | 01:59 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser had people to ask | ||
| delta16 | how to exit that god damn editor ?? | 01:59 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | my mates got a good cheat sheet apparently, but i dnt know where its from | 02:00 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | press escape then :wq (to save) and :q! (close with no saving) | 02:00 |
| === TelnetManta [n=benwilli@72.159.132.4] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| Kamping_Kaiser | and if you press q and it says 'recording', press q again to stop it recording | 02:00 |
| delta16 | what do they mean by recording ?? | 02:01 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | recording a macro | 02:01 |
| delta16 | editing ?? | 02:01 |
| delta16 | aaa | 02:01 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | anything you type while 'recording' is there can be replayed | 02:01 |
| delta16 | a cpuple of days ago they asked me to learn to setup administer and manage a whole voip network on ASTERISK | 02:02 |
| delta16 | but its all done with a terminal | 02:02 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | never used asterisk, i'll get to it eventually | 02:03 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | try nano for something easier (but less powerful of course) | 02:03 |
| delta16 | Nano ?? | 02:03 |
| delta16 | il try to google NANO | 02:03 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | no, try and run nano :P | 02:03 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | `nano` in a term | 02:03 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | term=terminal, btw :) | 02:04 |
| delta16 | oo now i see the result | 02:04 |
| delta16 | is it some sort of editor !? | 02:04 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ys. | 02:05 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | *yes | 02:05 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :) | 02:05 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | just a basic few-frills text editor | 02:05 |
| delta16 | don't need anymore to edit a config file :-P | 02:06 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wait until you get to squid :) | 02:07 |
| delta16 | lets try ;) | 02:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hehe. | 02:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | 1600 line config | 02:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | theres a few packages like that | 02:07 |
| delta16 | oo my god !! | 02:08 |
| delta16 | soo not good for me | 02:08 |
| delta16 | naa , don't wanna try that!! | 02:08 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lol | 02:08 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | piker :P | 02:08 |
| delta16 | oo yea jut a stupid questino ... | 02:09 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | go for it | 02:09 |

| shriphani | delta16: ctrl | 02:10 |
| shriphani | ^ = your control key. | 02:10 |

| === DigeratiX [n=Digerlap@24.117.58.241] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| DigeratiX | i have done all things and videos/avi/dvd will not play in edubuntu, even installed easyubuntu and added most things. Still nothing. Whats the deal? Could it be the video card? | 04:26 |
| === jsgotangco is now known as greeneggsnospam | ||
| ogra | define "all the things" ... you ususaly dont need to do anything but click on a movie, if a codec is missing the system will offer you to install it | 04:27 |
| DigeratiX | well at first it didnt prompt, so I began to research and install codecs and such. | 04:28 |
| DigeratiX | totem just crashes | 04:28 |
| ogra | easyubuntu is the same as automatix ... be careful with that (see http://mjg59.livejournal.com/) | 04:28 |
| ogra | thast on feisty ? | 04:28 |
| DigeratiX | yes | 04:29 |
| ogra | hmm, i have never seen people have probs with that | 04:29 |
| ogra | for me personally the codec instaler works fine as well | 04:29 |
| shriphani | avi...... try installing the w32 codecs. | 04:30 |
| vnl | well that did not help oorga | 04:30 |
| vnl | orga* | 04:30 |
| shriphani | but yes what are "all things" ? | 04:30 |
| ogra | vnl, why ? | 04:30 |
| vnl | I have no Idea | 04:30 |
| vnl | I have Edubuntu 7.04 | 04:31 |
| vnl | I installed it | 04:31 |
| === ogra wouldnt suggest installing w32codecs to anyone... they are highly illegal | ||
| ogra | vnl, and you installed the packages above ? | 04:31 |
| vnl | now I need APache PHP and Mysql | 04:31 |
| DigeratiX | i did install the w32 codecs | 04:31 |
| DigeratiX | like I said I have installed all things | 04:31 |
| vnl | when I typed the code... | 04:31 |
| ogra | DigeratiX, well, up to you :) | 04:31 |
| vnl | I mean command | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | this is what I get when I use totem to play an avi | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | @edubuntu:~$ totem | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | This probably reflects a bug in the program. | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | (Details: serial 87 error_code 11 request_code 140 minor_code 19) | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) | 04:32 |
| ogra | please use a pastebin | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | woooops | 04:32 |
| ogra | well, tat might be a Xserver issue, right | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | so it may fall back to being a video card issue? | 04:32 |
| ogra | or a very limited amount of video ram | 04:32 |
| DigeratiX | its a sis video | 04:33 |
| DigeratiX | has 630mb ram | 04:33 |
| vnl | ogra any more suggestions | 04:33 |
| ogra | well, how much shared videoram does it use ? | 04:33 |
| DigeratiX | eww good question | 04:33 |
| DigeratiX | possibly 64 | 04:34 |
| DigeratiX | or less | 04:34 |
| sbalneav | ogra: Just a note, My clients here at work are getting USB bus dropouts. When using USB mice, the kernel/udev decides it's getting read errors from the usb device, and unloads the driver :( I'm going to head off to a dental appointment soon, but then I'll work at home, and try to narrow it down. | 04:34 |
| ogra | vnl, you only need the four packages above they should ask you a bunh of questions during install and you should be all set aftewards | 04:34 |
| vnl | never asked any questions | 04:34 |
| ogra | sbalneav, i'm flying out in 1h and likely wont be online and back before sunday :/ | 04:34 |
| vnl | it just said.... | 04:34 |
| ogra | vnl, but they installed prperly ? | 04:35 |
| ogra | *properly | 04:35 |
| vnl | nope nothing happened | 04:35 |
| vnl | I mean it asked me for the password | 04:35 |
| vnl | I typed it | 04:35 |
| vnl | it said reading packages | 04:35 |
| ogra | sbalneav, feel free to proxy through LAser if you want anything uploaded (including ltsp) | 04:35 |
| vnl | and said the installation is missintg all these | 04:35 |
| ogra | something is wrong with your software sources ... check that | 04:36 |
| vnl | its the original CD | 04:36 |
| vnl | I got it from the Ship It | 04:36 |
| ogra | apache isnt on the cD | 04:36 |
| vnl | then...? | 04:36 |
| ogra | it gets pulled from the online archive | 04:36 |
| shriphani | vnl: /etc/apt/sources.list | 04:36 |
| ogra | enable that i the software sources tool from the system menu | 04:36 |
| ogra | its only two clicks :) | 04:37 |
| vnl | OK then | 04:37 |
| vnl | now the problem...is I don't have internet on that PC | 04:37 |
| vnl | Im on windows now... | 04:37 |
| DigeratiX | there is no other way to check or allocate shared video ram other than from the bios correct? | 04:37 |
| ogra | right | 04:37 |
| DigeratiX | ok well this will have to wait till i get home | 04:37 |
| DigeratiX | thanks | 04:38 |
| vnl | ogra is there any way I can download all that stuff | 04:38 |
| vnl | and copy it onto a CD | 04:38 |
| vnl | and transfer it | 04:38 |
| ogra | synaptic has such an option i think, but you need another ubuntu machine that has net connection | 04:38 |
| vnl | Oh... | 04:38 |
| vnl | OK atleast let me know the conection to it | 04:39 |
| vnl | to the net I mean | 04:39 |
| vnl | I have a dynamic IP | 04:39 |
| vnl | so can't use those while configuring right | 04:39 |
| vnl | so guys | 04:43 |
| sbalneav | You might want to google for apt-on-cd | 04:45 |
| ogra | sbalneav, synaptic has all he needs in te file menu ;) | 04:46 |
| vnl | synaptic... | 04:46 |
| vnl | whats that | 04:46 |
| vnl | I am a complete n00b | 04:46 |
| sbalneav | Right, but if he wants to download the stuff, and burn it to a cd... | 04:46 |
| sbalneav | or does synaptic do that? | 04:47 |
| shriphani | vnl: why not go the packages.ubuntu.com route ? | 04:47 |
| sbalneav | vnl: Simplest would be just to connect the box temporarily to the internet, and install the packages. | 04:47 |
| vnl | yeah I guess thats the simplest method | 04:47 |
| ogra | well, synaptic creates a local archive in a folder you can copy that folder and make the synaptic on the target system read it | 04:48 |
| sbalneav | ok, heading out to dentist. | 04:48 |
| ogra | shriphani, because that gets you into download hell packages jhave dependencies :) | 04:48 |
| ogra | yeah, heading to the shower ... | 04:48 |
| vnl | ehehe | 04:49 |
| vnl | all of are heading out | 04:49 |
| vnl | Im so ded now | 04:49 |

| vnl | is it possible to install linux through that | 04:51 |
| === ogra does that all the time | ||
| vnl | how will it detect USB then | 04:51 |
| vnl | lol | 04:52 |
| vnl | without an OS | 04:52 |
| vnl | :P | 04:52 |
| ogra | well, your system needs to support that indeed | 04:52 |
| ogra | s/system/BIOS/ | 04:52 |
| vnl | Oh system BIOS does support it | 04:52 |
| vnl | I know that much | 04:52 |
| ogra | if you can select USB as boot device then all is fine | 04:52 |
| ogra | if not ... there is no solution | 04:53 |
| vnl | OH OK...I get it all now... | 04:53 |

| stgraber | Hi, sorry I won't have much time to help you as I have a meeting in 5 minutes | 07:56 |
| stgraber | but did you try with another thin client | 07:56 |
| stgraber | just in case of an hardware issue ? | 07:56 |
| stgraber | (maybe the X server simply can't start due to bad detection of your graphic card) | 07:57 |

| stgraber | welcome back ross, did you/can you check with a different thin client ? | 09:22 |
| ross | Thanks. Yes, and both stop at the same spot. I am noticing the path in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf points to a relative location. I am stating it absolutely. ?? | 09:24 |
| === jinty [n=jinty@p57BB0821.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ross | Say, I was able to tty F1, but now cannot. any ideas on that? I figure it will help me if i can see more info. | 09:28 |
| stgraber | are you using a two NICs configuration | 09:30 |
| stgraber | ? | 09:30 |
| ross | yes, but I did originally try with two. | 09:31 |
| stgraber | I never was able to make Edubuntu to boot + login with only one NIC (boot is now OK with gutsy but ssh doesn't work so no login) | 09:32 |
| stgraber | can you check on tty8, sometimes info are there | 09:32 |
| ross | Just to note, this is the first time in 8 years I've had to pester the community with stuff I couldn't figure out on my own, and man do I need help. | 09:33 |
| ross | no response from any tty | 09:33 |
| === tck [n=tck@A-78-101.cust.iol.ie] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| stgraber | it's feisty right ? | 09:33 |
| ross | good name. 7.04 | 09:33 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: Do you have a minute for that ? | 09:34 |
| stgraber | it could well be a problem with the NFS server (we switched to nbdserver with Gutsy for lots of good reason :)) | 09:35 |
| ross | the client at boot shows the receiving of an IP address. 192.168.0.250 normal. | 09:35 |
| stgraber | yes, then it should connect using NFS and boot | 09:35 |
| ross | I will check / change nfs servers. | 09:35 |
| stgraber | check that /opt/ltsp/i386/ is exported using NFS (/etc/exports) | 09:36 |
| stgraber | then if you can, check if you can mount the NFS from another computer on the same network | 09:37 |
| sbalneav | Sorry, what? | 09:40 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: ross can't boot with feisty edubuntu server, may be a nfs issue but I almost forgot how feisty's LTSP worked :) | 09:41 |
| sbalneav | simplest to see what's going on would be to remove the bootsplash | 09:41 |
| sbalneav | cd /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg | 09:42 |
| ross | I will remove the splash | 09:42 |
| sbalneav | edit file "default" | 09:42 |
| sbalneav | remove "quiet splash" from the end of the line. | 09:42 |
| ross | it is removed and attempting a client boot now | 09:44 |
| ross | lots of suff and ends with IP-config: eth) hardware... MAC address DHCP RARP. | 09:45 |
| ross | Above that, near the beginnnig it says I have and IP address??? | 09:46 |
| sbalneav | So it's just halted there at that point? | 09:47 |
| ross | Yes halt. Is it possible to get an address at one stage and then need another later on? | 09:47 |
| sbalneav | Yes, a thin client will always make 2 dhcp requests. | 09:47 |
| sbalneav | The pxe does one, to download the kernel. | 09:48 |
| sbalneav | Then the kernel has to do one, since pxe doesn't pass it the ip address. | 09:48 |
| sbalneav | Sounds to me like a dhcp problem | 09:48 |
| sbalneav | SDo you have another dhcp server on the network? | 09:48 |
| ross | I have my client connected via Xover cable - it is alone. So, it appears PXE will receive an IP, but the kernel won't. | 09:49 |
| ross | Do I have to spec a path for DHCP to send from or to? | 09:50 |
| sbalneav | Can you paste to the pastebin both a copy of ifconfig -a, and your /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file? | 09:50 |

| stgraber | root-path too | 09:55 |
| stgraber | root-path should be : /opt/ltsp/i386 | 09:56 |
| sbalneav | yeah, that root path is bad. | 09:56 |
| sbalneav | right. | 09:56 |
| stgraber | second filename should be : /ltsp/i386/nbi.img | 09:56 |
| ross | I have changed both based on ideas on google, both were as you are currently noting, and I will put back. | 09:56 |
| sbalneav | The default one should be fine. | 09:59 |
| ross | all is back as you say | 10:00 |
| sbalneav | Please re-paste. | 10:00 |
| ross | ok. one sec | 10:00 |

| ross | restarted dhcp and client no progress | 10:02 |
| sbalneav | Your root path is still incorrect | 10:03 |
| ross | Isn't Edubuntu supposed to connect out of the box? My thinking is, I must have done something wrong. | 10:04 |
| ross | root path. one sec. | 10:04 |
| sbalneav | yes | 10:04 |
| sbalneav | it is | 10:04 |
| sbalneav | You changed the root path. | 10:04 |
| ross | okay, I took off the nbi.img | 10:06 |
| ross | is there something else I overlooked. | 10:06 |
| ross | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38846/ | 10:07 |
| sbalneav | You still haven't pasted the output of ifconfig -a yet. I'll want to see that as well. | 10:07 |
| ross | ok | 10:07 |
| ross | i'm on itl | 10:07 |
| ross | i'm on it. | 10:07 |
| sbalneav | np | 10:07 |
| ross | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38847/ | 10:08 |
| sbalneav | ok, so the thin client is connected via a crossover cable to eth0? | 10:09 |
| ross | yes | 10:09 |
| ross | Recall, it is getting an IP at pxe boot | 10:10 |
| sbalneav | Alright, so, you've restarted the dhcpd again, with the invoke-rc.d dhcp3-server restart command? | 10:10 |
| ross | that's a big part of my confusion | 10:10 |
| ross | yes, just now and rebooting the client | 10:11 |
| sbalneav | ok | 10:11 |
| ross | With number of reboots, at least I know by power switch is good. :) | 10:11 |
| ross | client stops at same place. | 10:12 |
| sbalneav | ok | 10:12 |
| ross | are there any logs on the server I can check? | 10:12 |
| sbalneav | Lets make sure we've got an updated kernel to boot with. | 10:12 |
| sbalneav | sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 | 10:12 |
| ross | I just download the image from edubuntu yesterday. | 10:13 |
| sbalneav | mount -t proc proc /proc | 10:13 |
| ross | In addition, I applied all updates this morning. | 10:13 |
| sbalneav | apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 10:13 |
| sbalneav | Did you do them in the chroot? | 10:13 |
| sbalneav | So, you're doing the update in the chroot now? | 10:17 |
| sbalneav | Is it downloading some updates? | 10:17 |
| ross | the output shows some files were ignored. | 10:17 |
| ross | here is one line: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead | 10:18 |
| ross | I am unsure of why I would have the problem in the first place. Do you know of any default install bugs or issues? | 10:19 |
| sbalneav | nope | 10:19 |
| sbalneav | can you paste the output of the /etc/apt/sources.list file in the chroot there? | 10:20 |
| sbalneav | Just out of curiosity, what kind of thin client is this? | 10:21 |
| ross | thin client is a compaq 330mle server | 10:22 |
| ross | thin client is a compaq ml330e server | 10:22 |
| ross | sorry about the typo | 10:23 |
| sbalneav | ok, so it's pxe booting then? | 10:23 |
| ross | yes. every time | 10:23 |
| sbalneav | What kind of network card in it? | 10:23 |
| ross | realtek | 10:23 |
| sbalneav | Hmmm | 10:24 |
| sbalneav | 8139 type? | 10:24 |
| ross | 8139 sorry about that | 10:24 |
| sbalneav | heh | 10:25 |
| ross | hmm I guess so. | 10:25 |
| sbalneav | Wait. Multiple ethernet interfaces in this server? | 10:25 |
| sbalneav | that you're using as a thin client? | 10:25 |
| ross | yes | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | hahaha | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | bingo | 10:26 |
| ross | but only one connected | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | doesn't matter | 10:26 |
| ross | I can pull the card. one minute | 10:26 |
| stgraber | casper takes the wrong one :) | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | just because you boot off one, doesn't mean the linux kernel will decide that one's eth0 | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | :) | 10:26 |
| sbalneav | Betcha a coffee that's it. | 10:27 |
| sbalneav | so you download the kernel, and linux switches over to trying to use the other one. | 10:27 |
| sbalneav | I've seen that before. | 10:27 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: is there a bug about that ? (we should check the status of the cards and take the first ethX with a cable plugged in) | 10:27 |
| ross | one card now. reboot in progress | 10:27 |
| ross | only one with no cable? | 10:28 |
| ross | we are further along | 10:28 |
| ross | It's still moving. progress :) | 10:29 |
| sbalneav | \o/ | 10:29 |
| sbalneav | Knew it had to be something goofy. | 10:29 |
| ross | double that if I get login. | 10:29 |
| sbalneav | Well, if you don't we'll just solve that problem too :) | 10:30 |
| ross | You guys realize I will now have try the several configs I've used to this point to rule out 2 nicx as an issue. | 10:30 |
| ross | long day tomorrow, but happier. | 10:31 |
| sbalneav | Well, glad we figured it out. | 10:31 |
| ross | I got GUI. You can't say that just anywhere. If I could imitate the cop off family guy YEAHGHGHG | 10:32 |
| ross | thanks a bunch. Stupid NIC! ;) | 10:33 |
| sbalneav | No problem | 10:33 |
| ross | I'm noticing a no keyboard response. I must have pulled the cable during the NIC removal. Thanks again. | 10:34 |
| ross | all good now. | 10:34 |
| ross | Question? If I log into IRC on this channel, how do I see how many people are currently on? | 10:36 |
| JordanC | On Which IRC Client? | 10:36 |
| sbalneav | stgraber: Well, that gets a bit tricky, as now you have to propagate that info to a lot of weird places. I suppose when we've got all the other problems solved.... :) | 10:36 |
| ross | I am using xchat | 10:36 |
| sbalneav | the command /users should tell you | 10:36 |
| sbalneav | xchat should have the users listed in a side panel. | 10:36 |
