[07:27] <trepo> Hi, does anyone know if ebox 2300 clients function flawlessly with Gutsy (both sound and video)?
[07:29] <trepo> If i recall right there should be some improvement in Gutsy release for this client, but it would be nice if someone had more specific information...
[09:30] <highvoltage> OMG! LTSP in Gutsy ROCKS!!!!
[09:52] <highvoltage> RichEd: hie hie
[09:52] <RichEd> what's the rock highlight ?
[09:53] <RichEd> functionality or speed ?
[09:53] <highvoltage> RichEd: geez, I don't know where to start, it's such a major improvement.. just off the top of my head...
[09:53] <highvoltage> 1. Boot process is altra-smooth, it's smoother and nicer than booting Ubuntu from a desktop, and it's very fast.
[09:54] <highvoltage> 2. the new LDM is also, very fast, and it has language and session choosers
[09:54] <highvoltage> 3. have I mentioned it's fast yet? :)
[09:54] <highvoltage> haven't done heavy testing yet, but I like the squashfs approach
[09:55] <highvoltage> LDM gives a few segfaullt errors now and again if I press the power button instead of chooseing the power down option, and authentication is a bit slow, but besides that, it's really slick
[09:55] <RichEd> cool stuff ... give ogra a hand and a hug
[09:55] <highvoltage> the meukow LTSP implementation is starting to feel real mature
[09:56] <highvoltage> RichEd: yep, absolutely, will do
[10:38] <tsurc> Hi, I've installed a edubuntu gutsy server (vary nice too by the way gents, sterling work!) and I'm about to put it into a live environment for a proper beasting. But before I do I have to soft out filtering. I've installed squid and dansguardian (on the same server. its all working correctly too). now my question is; does any one know of a way to force all browsers to go through dansguardian.
[10:39] <tsurc> * very, *sort
[10:39] <stgraber> tsurc: you should find a way to do that by googling for : iptables transparent proxy
[10:39] <stgraber> it's about redirecting all traffic on port 80 to port 3128 (or 8080)
[10:41] <tsurc> but how does the iptables differentiate between squid asking for a site and a browser asking for a site. I only have one server to do this on.
[10:45] <tsurc> not unless I can figure some way of setting up proxies in the firefox prefs and then stopping the users from altering it. But then I'll need to figure out what to do about other forms of access that might still work (like other browsers.. etc)
[10:51] <stgraber> tsurc: IIRC you can filter using unix UID
[10:52] <stgraber> tsurc: so you can make the redirection not apply for squid (uid is proxy)
[10:55] <tsurc> ahhhhh clever, I never knew you could do that :-) I'll go googling now. Thanks
[11:03] <ogra> hey hey
[11:03] <highvoltage> ogra: LTSP in gutsy ROCKS!

[05:48] <davmor2> is it the same as ubuntu?
[05:50] <davmor2> it's okay I found it :)
[08:08] <Bauldrick> I'm running Gutsy, but I can no longer stream .avi files from my NAS using samba and mplayer
[08:24] <amalon_> hi people. is there a way of installing edubuntu using the live cd from the boot menu without loading up edubuntu first. It is unusably slow, and i haven't managed to get the installer to open.
