| ari_stress | morning all | 01:22 |
|---|---|---|
| ari_stress | i'm stuck with tftp being timeout | 03:43 |
| ari_stress | :( | 03:43 |
| ari_stress | i guess the NIC is the culprit | 03:44 |
| lns | ari_stress, i've had that | 04:05 |
| lns | what's the hardware? | 04:05 |
| ari_stress | lns: really? | 04:06 |
| ari_stress | it's on board rtl8139 | 04:06 |
| lns | hmm | 04:06 |
| lns | those are usually pretty damn solid actually | 04:06 |
| ari_stress | let me get the wireshark result | 04:06 |
| lns | my issue was on a specific line of compaq ipaq workstations with buggy PXE revision | 04:07 |
| lns | and no updates since mid 90's.. heh | 04:07 |
| ari_stress | Ethernet II, Src: Micro-St_c6:35:95 (00:13:d3:c6:35:95), Dst: QuantaCo_28:15:65 (00:c0:9f:28:15:65) | 04:08 |
| ari_stress | did you find a workaround for it? | 04:08 |
| lns | no | 04:08 |
| lns | they got tossed | 04:08 |
| lns | unfortunately | 04:08 |
| lns | ari_stress, that doesn't really say much.. just the source/dest macs i believe | 04:09 |
| lns | do they match client and server? where is your dhcp server? are you sure you have correct parms for pxe? | 04:09 |
| ari_stress | i'm quite sure the dhcpd.conf is correct, because other client can boot into ltsp OK | 04:09 |
| ari_stress | the failed client symptoms are: seems like it doesn't recognize the 'next-server' parameter, because it looks for tftp server at 192.168.0.254 (my gateway), whereas it should be 192.168.0.237 | 04:11 |
| ari_stress | then for testing, i change all 192.168.0.254 in dhcpd.conf to 192.168.0.237, so it then connect to 237 | 04:11 |
| ari_stress | it requests for pxeclient.0, but still time out | 04:11 |
| lns | ahh i think i've had that before too | 04:12 |
| lns | what's the thin client? | 04:12 |
| ari_stress | what do you mean | 04:12 |
| lns | i got around that actually by specifying (in dhcp) a couple of other random similar parms like 'next-server' ... i think 'server-identifier' and another one | 04:12 |
| lns | is it an actual thin client or just a random computer with a rt8139 | 04:13 |
| ari_stress | oh, just a regular desktop pc with onboard rtl8139 | 04:13 |
| lns | for whatever reason the pxe stack (?) required some non-standard parms from dhcp to find the tftp server | 04:13 |
| ari_stress | oh no | 04:14 |
| ari_stress | can you share the parameter to me? | 04:14 |
| lns | i think 'server-identifier' and another one | 04:14 |
| ari_stress | ok let me google it | 04:14 |
| lns | tftp-server-name | 04:15 |
| lns | was the other one | 04:15 |
| lns | is dhcp on your ltsp server? | 04:15 |
| lns | make sure you have correct 'filename', 'root-path' and 'next-server' | 04:16 |
| ari_stress | yes it;s on the same machine as ltsp | 04:16 |
| lns | k | 04:16 |
| ari_stress | let me experiment with it | 04:16 |
| lns | ok | 04:16 |
| lns | lemme know how it turns out | 04:16 |
| ari_stress | all of the above parameter is followed by ip address? | 04:17 |
| lns | no not all of them | 04:18 |
| lns | http://pastebot.ltsp.org/401 | 04:23 |
| lns | look at that, that's my dhcp conf in ipcop | 04:23 |
| === bddebian2 is now known as bddebian | ||
| ari_stress | lns: still not working | 05:34 |
| lns | you got me then | 05:55 |
| ari_stress | i suspect maybe the 'filename' parameter needs tobe modified, so i change it into various setting, still not working | 06:09 |

| neil_d | I am having trouble with edubuntu I have just installed it the client boot untill the splash screen progress bar is about 3/4 done then stops can anyone help ? | 08:14 |
| HedgeMage | neil_d: it helps if we can see the boot messages -- press Alt+some Fkey to see them -- I forget which one but trial and error is safe :) | 08:21 |
| neil_d | The client boot is stoping at "setup LSTP client" | 08:28 |
| riot_le | hi @all, anyone here experiences with Neoware Eon-Thinclients in combination with Edubuntu? | 08:37 |
| ari_stress | hi all, how do i add printer in client? | 08:47 |
| ari_stress | should i logon first as admin? | 08:47 |
| ari_stress | hi guys | 09:45 |
| ari_stress | i made it | 09:45 |
| ari_stress | printing in ltsp5 is a success | 09:46 |
| ari_stress | :D | 09:46 |
| neil_d | I have been having trouble getting my client to boot, I think I found the problem, in that the video hardware isn't detected correctly, how do I fix this ? | 10:02 |
| ari_stress | neil_d: u use ltsp5 from edubuntu? | 10:10 |
| neil_d | ari_stress, yes | 10:10 |
| ari_stress | i'm afrain i cannot help. i'm new. and from what i read in lts.conf, ltsp5 now shouldn't be configured in any way, it will detect all things | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # Note that things like sound and local device support are | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # auto-enabled if the corresponding packages are installed, | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # there is no need to manually set these options anymore. | 10:13 |

| ari_stress | # With the introduction of the nbd/unionfs/squashfs structure | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # the lts.conf file moved to the tftp root please create: | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf instead for your changes | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # In case you want to use the lts.conf here, this still works, | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | # but you need to run ltsp-update-image after every change. | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | sorry for the paste | 10:13 |
| ari_stress | i've just found it after pulling out my hair setting up printing | 10:14 |
| neil_d | yes I saw this I have a lts.conf in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386 and it seems to be parsed ok. | 10:15 |
| neil_d | how do I setup to which xorg.conf to use for a client ? | 10:23 |
| neil_d | what is meant to happen after "Starting LTSP client" ? | 11:07 |
| * neil_d that printed by the client startup. | 11:07 | |
| neil_d | I think I have a OK version of the xorg.conf being used (at least I don't get a black screen now). But it does nothing after printing "Starting LTSP client [OK]" :( what is meant to happen ? how do I fix this ? | 11:14 |
| Flosoft | hey | 12:43 |
| Flosoft | I have some questions about IPCop and PXE boots | 12:43 |
| Flosoft | I have a server which runs Edubuntu with the possibility to boot PXE ... but I use IPCop as DHCP server | 12:43 |
| Flosoft | can I set up IPCop to use the Edubuntu server as host for the PXE boot image? | 12:43 |
| Bauer| | i have not tried myself, but may I suggest,, | 12:47 |
| Bauer| | filename "/ltsp/pxelinux.0"; and option root-path "/opt/ltsp/i386"; in dhcpd.conf | 12:47 |
| Bauer| | plus "next-server (ip-adress to edubuntu server)" | 12:48 |
| Flosoft | ok | 12:49 |
| Flosoft | next-server is not the DHCP host? | 12:49 |
| Flosoft | so IPCop in this case? | 12:49 |
| Bauer| | next-server name; The hostname or address of the server from which the boot file is to be loaded. | 12:49 |
| Bauer| | you should put this on the dhcpd.conf on the dhcp-server | 12:50 |
| Bauer| | next-server should be pointing to where the boot image is, which probably would be edubuntu-server | 12:50 |
| Flosoft | but I disabled DHCP on the Edubuntu box | 12:50 |
| Bauer| | but you have a linux based dhcp-server? put it in the dhcpd.conf in your dhcp server | 12:51 |
| Flosoft | ok | 12:51 |
| Flosoft | but that one is IPCop | 12:51 |
| Flosoft | not the Edubuntu server with the image | 12:51 |
| Bauer| | but isn't IPcop linux based? | 12:51 |
| Flosoft | yes | 12:52 |
| Bauer| | the point with "next-server" is that it redirects to the server serving the boot image | 12:52 |
| Bauer| | so you should edit dhcpd.conf on IPCop, and make "next-server" pointing at your edubuntu-server | 12:53 |
| Bauer| | it's just a suggestion, not sure if it works | 12:53 |
| Bauer| | check out http://www.unix.org.ua/orelly/networking/tcpip/appd_03.htm as well | 12:54 |
| Bauer| | if you don't get my explanation, I will try to explain it better :p | 12:55 |
| Flosoft | ok | 13:14 |
| Flosoft | I get a TFTP server error | 13:14 |
| Flosoft | File Not Found | 13:14 |
| xyxvv | What have I done!? I installed the DebianEDU and DebianJr. packages on my Edubuintu desktop and now I \'m getting weird issues with updating the system, it even now identifies itself as Debian instead of Edubuntu 7.10! | 13:16 |

| sbalneav | Morning all | 14:36 |
| RichEd | anyone here used kompozer - web page creator : http://kompozer.sourceforge.net/ - and have an opinion on it ? | 15:35 |
| sbalneav | RichEd: Haven't used that. I've used the one that's got the blue fish for a symbol... what's it called...? | 15:40 |
| sbalneav | These days, if I need a web page, I tend to just use OO.o, and do a save as html :) | 15:41 |
| RichEd | sbalneav: not sure which one you mean ... kompozer just got a nice review from Chris Dawson at ZDnet with some good talkback comments | 15:44 |
| RichEd | I like him and his column ... he's a teacher / administrator, who write a column, and lurves Edubuntu LTSP :) | 15:45 |
| RichEd | http://education.zdnet.com/?p=1425 | 15:45 |
| RichEd | * writes a regular column | 15:45 |
| Flosoft | hey again | 16:58 |
| sbalneav | Hello | 17:11 |
| johnny | hi | 17:13 |
| johnny | i got autologin working with francis` patch | 17:13 |
| johnny | learned package building, etc | 17:13 |
| johnny | odd problem tho | 17:14 |
| johnny | nobody seems to believe it | 17:14 |
| johnny | if i hve lts.conf in the chroot, autologin works, but if it's in the /var/lib/tftboot/ltsp/i386 it doesn't | 17:14 |
| me4u | anybody know anything about this "young" theme bug | 18:19 |
| me4u | can't seem to set it | 18:19 |
| musashi1 | any thoughts on why print jobs will show up in the print manager window but not actually print? the printer is working and it will print a test page. just doesn't release jobs from clients. | 20:25 |
| musashi1 | printing was working before | 20:26 |
| musashi1 | okay, it finally printed. it sat there for a good 5 minutes before finally printing. not sure why. | 20:28 |
