| ari_stress | morning, happy new year everyone :D | 00:27 |

| iMacGyver | ok, so i have 64 bit edubuntu server i created a 32 bit ltsp image, now i need to compile a module (e1000) to work on the 32 bit kernel of the 32 bit image, but i'm hitting a wall, any clues? tia | 01:49 |
| Solv | an someone please explain to me how ltsp5 ubuntu detects and sets screen resolutions...I've noticed it sets different resolution for different hardware...and interestingly, the desktops resolution settings (which i would have thought would only be relevant for the servers local video card and monitor) refelect the resolution settings of the current terminal i'm on.. | 03:43 |
| Solv | that been said I would like to change the resolutions...as for some monitors they are too low, and everything is too big...i had them setup in fedora ltsp4.2 on higher resolutions with no problem | 03:43 |
| Solv | currently i just set the lts.conf file to 1024x768....but some monitors have a native resolution of 1280x1024...and one monitor gets given 800x600...even though it can cope with 1024x768?? | 03:43 |
| Solv | if I set the resolution in lts.conf to 1280x1024...ltsp ignores this and sets the monitors to 1280x800 which looks horrible | 03:44 |
| LaserJock | Solv: I believe the xorg auto-detection is used | 03:47 |
| LaserJock | I'm not really sure how to set the x resolution | 03:48 |
| LaserJock | on a per client basis | 03:48 |
| Solv | LaserJock, setting stuff in lts.conf does seem to have an effect...but not the correct one =) | 03:48 |
| Solv | well i know you can do stuff like [ws001] and set indivudual settings there....but i don't wanna look into that if the settings are being ignored...so to speak | 03:49 |
| LaserJock | you might want to look through the edubuntu-users archive, I think this has been discussed before | 03:51 |
| Solv | okay thanks...i'm actually using normal ubuntu....but not many people around on ltsp...so i came here | 03:52 |
| stgraber | ogra: around ? | 11:34 |
| stgraber | I'm currently working on the Ubuntu QA pages and was wondering if you know when the switch to an Addon CD to Ubuntu will happen for Edubuntu | 11:36 |
| stgraber | as I don't think it's very useful to update all the Edubuntu workstation, server and Add-on, if we are about to have all that changed | 11:37 |

| msaul | I upgraded a video card, and was wondering if there was a | 15:18 |
| msaul | command line utility to reset graphic card info to run X-windows | 15:18 |
| msaul | I'm running Edubuntu 7.10 | 15:18 |
| msaul | Perhaps something that works similar to sax or sax2 in SuSE? | 15:19 |
| msaul | Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :) | 15:19 |
| ogra | sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ... that will generate a new config .... if you omit th -phigh it will offer you all the current values and give you an option to change them | 15:32 |
| msaul | Thanks :) | 15:34 |
| bddebian | Heya | 16:04 |
| lns | Hey all | 18:39 |
| lns | Is there a program/util that can limit the actual time a user is logged in in Edubuntu? | 18:40 |
| lns | nevermind, found timeoutd =) | 19:20 |
| iMacGyver | ok, so i have 64 bit edubuntu server i created a 32 bit ltsp image, now i need to compile a module (e1000) to work on the 32 bit kernel of the 32 bit image, but i'm hitting a wall, any clues? tia | 19:41 |
| johnny | and you tried it in the chroot? | 19:42 |
| johnny | what happened? | 19:42 |
| johnny | i don't recall | 19:42 |
| iMacGyver | include/asm/irq.h:15:25: error: irq_vectors.h: No such file or directory | 19:42 |
| iMacGyver | works fine, with exact same setup, but on a 32 bit server | 19:42 |
| johnny | and youc an't copy the module over? | 19:42 |
| iMacGyver | i want to know how to do it here :) | 19:43 |
| johnny | if the kernel/gcc matches | 19:43 |
| johnny | it'll work | 19:43 |
| iMacGyver | i know | 19:43 |
| johnny | or should | 19:43 |
| johnny | well most people are gonna tell you not to bother with 64bit server | 19:43 |
| iMacGyver | but i don't want to have to keep a 32 bit one around and in sync with the one here | 19:43 |
| iMacGyver | johnny: why? | 19:43 |
| johnny | because there are no benefits | 19:43 |
| johnny | if i had th chance to redo mine, i'd use 32bit | 19:43 |
| iMacGyver | johnny: really, so how do i use more than 4GB or ram? | 19:43 |
| johnny | isn't there a patch for that? | 19:44 |
| johnny | or something.. | 19:44 |
| johnny | i know somebody in here was talking about it | 19:44 |
| stgraber | ogra: ping | 19:45 |

| iMacGyver | make ARCH=i386 | 19:55 |
| iMacGyver | is the solution btw | 19:56 |
| lns | The server has a PAE enabled kernel allowing for >4GB RAM | 19:58 |
| lns | out of the box | 19:58 |
| lns | s/server/server kernel | 19:58 |
| lns | iMacGyver, and yeah...i wouldn't hassle with 64-bit server, especially if you wanna use things like flash | 19:59 |
| iMacGyver | i don't care about falsh :) | 20:00 |
| lns | java? any 32-bit only apps you can think of? if not, then stick with 64-bit (IMHO) | 20:01 |
| lns | can't hurt, and PAE does impose a performance hit | 20:01 |
| lns | for me, I had to have flash, so this was really the only way to make it work 100% (with sound) | 20:02 |
| iMacGyver | i have java on it | 20:03 |
| iMacGyver | you can install 32 bit java on it if you want | 20:03 |
| johnny | iMacGyver, running make ARCH=i386 on the server? | 20:20 |
| johnny | sounds like a topic for a howto :) | 20:21 |
| lns | Java has 64-bit native plugins ala "Iced Tea" now.. just seems a bit buggy compared to 32-bit java | 20:28 |
| iMacGyver | johnny: doing that inside the chroot | 20:29 |
| iMacGyver | lns: when java 7 comes out, it should hopefully be better | 20:30 |
| lns | iMacGyver, i hope too =) | 20:30 |
