[00:53] for anyone who's interested, i wrote up procedures on how to create mandatory shared/global firefox bookmarks for all users [00:53] http://lns.wikidot.com/firefoxglobalbookmarks [00:53] this will be the only time i mention it ;) [00:54] heh [02:07] yo LaserJock how are things? [02:08] interesting [02:09] lol [02:11] very very busy [02:13] same here :) [03:16] I stepped out for a bit [03:17] johnny: What I mean is I want to creat a custom variation of edubuntu with a different theme, custom repository, custom bootsplash, all that jazz [03:18] johnny: the end result would be a disc that I can pop in a machine and install a particular school's distro [03:51] nice lp uses postgres [06:26] hello I wanted to point out that smbldap-installer that moquist wrote gave a lot of fits on 7.10 install. However, the how-to-forge guide works flawlessly. The main issue that I have with the isntalled is the soft boot no entry..and I had a lot of trouble with how the installer configures smb.conf. I wanted to point this out because it will leave a system from booting correctly. [06:27] So its a an FYI..and I was able to replicate the issue..everytime i used the installer [06:27] My suggestion is to use the howtoforge guide availble..it works flawlessly [06:27] In addition the ldap-client configuration also has issues. [06:27] achandrashekar: have you told moquist about the problem/s? [06:28] since edubuntu primarily makes use of the ldap.conf...it no longer uses lbnssswitch.conf [06:28] so the installer tries to do an install against that. [06:28] i cant get a hold of moquist..because im pretty busy during the day [06:28] but hoping someone could pass this on. [06:29] hes just over there *points* - send him a PM [06:29] kgoetz: is that ltsp channel? as in "there"? [06:30] achandrashekar: "there" is 'in this channel as we speak' [06:31] kgoetz: sorry a little confused here.. i dont seem to see his name in the channel [06:32] woops i see him [06:32] achandrashekar: i can tab complete his name, so he is in here. (unless your not actually talking about moquist ) [06:32] no..its moquist indeed. [06:32] just offline i suppose.. [06:33] so basically send him a private message? [06:33] or email. the key bit is that you need to tell him if his script is busted [06:35] kgoetz: ill be happy to. [06:35] kgoetz: one of the key issues right of the bat, is that slapd.pid is not created and hence the ldappopulate breaks [06:36] but i will definitely let him know [06:36] by email or whatever means [06:36] however... as stated before [06:36] the definitive working guide...the how-to-forge guide works flawlessly [06:37] and is well written. [06:37] and mught save quite a bit of time simply to script that. [06:37] :) [06:37] thanks for letting us know :) [06:37] np...i spent a week on that [06:37] and some sleepless nights wonder what I did wrong. [06:38] but I started all over..and the guide that is how to forge worked first time - [06:39] this is what i am referring to - http://www.howtoforge.com/openldap-samba-domain-controller-ubuntu7.10 [06:40] and for clients this is VERY IMPORTANT as 7.10 no longer makes use of the libpam.conf or libnss.conf https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication [06:40] I really think that the main wiki for setup of ltsp setup such that it uses ldap-auth should refer to those [06:41] and im not sure who to talk to to change or append the guide [06:41] this will keep many people happy in NOT having to spend hours to figure out what the lock up issue is for klog daemon on bootup [06:41] kgoetz: know who appends such guides? [06:45] no i dont [06:46] i see....no problem... [06:46] * kgoetz had the problem with libpam.conf and libnss.conf too [06:47] achandrashekar: actuallyk, ping #ubuntu-doc [06:47] and ask them about it [06:47] the last guide and most definitive for infrastructure setup is the following - https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuDHCPload-balancingFailover [06:48] However from a strategic stand point of setup for standalones, there are some methodical steps [06:48] Id suggest this - 1) setup up BOTH standalones 2) get smb ldap working with shared home drives 3) do the dhcp failover [06:48] in that order [06:48] ;) [06:49] and hence added to the docs for handbook [06:49] but ill suggest that in ubuntu-doc [06:49] with the afore mentioned links above [06:50] I certainly appreciate all the help though...and the documentation is really what got me figured out. [06:50] Ill post progress of our infrastructure in days to come. [06:50] :) [07:04] kgoetz: a bit quiet in the channel..and I might have to try during the day. [07:05] achandrashekar: be patient [07:05] * kgoetz off home [07:05] no issues. [07:06] ;) === RichEd-2 is now known as RichEd [07:58] achandrashekar: i suggest you (1) mail ogra & cc sbalneav or (2) edit the wiki page yourself ! [07:58] for option (1) i'll msg you the email addresses [07:58] great. [07:59] but option (2) is better ... if you've spotted an inconsistency from personal experience, you're the best one to explain to others :) [07:59] and Im considering a bit of write up and I can have it reviewed before publication. [08:04] achandrashekar: if you accurately describe what you experienced, in such a way that it would have helped you, then that's the best review [08:04] Id be happy to do that [08:05] it should take a day or so..but I will formulate all of my thoughts effectively === johnny is now known as vagrantc_ === vagrantc_ is now known as johnny [11:55] ***** meeting reminder, edubuntu meeting in #ubuntu-meeting in 2min ***** [11:56] right, I'll be there but only for the tech part [11:56] then I have to go to an edubuntu deployement :) [11:57] heh [11:57] ***** meeting reminder, edubuntu meeting in #ubuntu-meeting starts now ***** [13:48] ogra, stgraber please see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57575/ [14:07] xivulon, yeah, thats fine [14:07] as i said, i wont cry :) [14:18] ogra_cmpc: sorry for that, will try to make it up to you in the next release [14:53] is there a reason why some computers would get stuck during the pxe boot process after the ................ done. [14:53] and then continue after a minute or 2 [14:53] ? [14:53] boot without quiet and see what they are doing :) [14:54] in the pxe config [14:54] hmmm yeah didnt think of that [14:55] i have seen delays with clocksource detection during kernl unpacking [14:55] check for that [15:44] hi all, I tried a coreduo as a client and youtube still see slow [15:44] the server is a amd 1,2ghz but now i was using just core duo client, so . whats the problem? [16:37] I suppose we had the early meeting today? [16:39] yup [16:40] * ogra_cmpc wonderws what he did to his classmat ... its unusual fast [16:40] :) [16:40] ogra_cmpc: I uploaded 5 squeak packages to NEW last night [16:40] I had to do quite a lot of work [16:40] yeah, saw that [16:40] many many thanks for that [16:40] * ogra_cmpc hugs LaserJock [16:42] I even put in transitional packages and did a test upgrade [16:42] it actually worked ;-) [16:43] wow [16:43] ! [16:43] you see me impressed [16:43] it'll close 10 bugs [16:43] that was fun to put in the changelog ;-) [16:43] anyway, hopefully the archive admins take it [16:44] it's a messy set of packages [16:46] and I *finally* got to send a "It's all fixed" email to gcompris-devel [16:46] and went through their "test suite" on Hardy and everything's looking pretty good === Pricey is now known as PriceChild [19:32] hi all [19:32] is there a problem with intel gigabit integrated adapter and ubuntu? [19:42] wake up all [19:48] ogra_cmpc, ! [19:48] initial patch for fixing sabayon [19:48] or rather.. sabayon in xnest [19:51] libxklavier patch [20:09] johnny, i just have to change chroot kernel by a newer one? [20:10] *have->can [20:10] english isn't my main language [20:12] huh [20:12] to a newer one ? sure? [20:12] but why are you asking me? [20:12] i don't really know how [20:15] ogra, ogra_cmpc http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516318 [20:15] Gnome bug 516318 in plugins "crash when run inside xnest (keyboard plugin)" [Normal,New] [20:15] pawtch attached [20:17] * ogra_cmpc hugs johnny [20:18] somebody can watch fluidly youtube in clients? [20:20] i'd say there are two real bugs that need to be solved for sabayon to be usable truly [20:21] at least.. registered so far that is [20:21] one, is allowing panel applets to be removed and added.. or modified [20:21] the other is the mozilla bookmarks merge [20:22] i'm going to be focusing on the panel applets one when i get more time [20:22] but both were not in former versions [20:22] ? [20:22] and both are whishlist items [20:22] they've been active bugs up til now [20:22] right [20:22] they are not wishlist imo [20:23] but they are no regressions to what we had in former releases [20:23] that is true [20:23] since both are features that didnt work yet [20:23] but that doesn't satisfy me :) [20:23] right, but if the fix requires big changes they are unlikely to get past the release amangers [20:26] the firefox import sounds like a critical candidate here [20:26] sure, but at least i will be providing a deb for seperate usage [20:26] for folks who really need the new features [20:26] well, lets at least try to get them in [20:27] but its hard to convince the guys that its not a new feature but a bug :) [20:28] as a non ubuntu dev, i only care that ubuntu users have the option to get the newer one, if they want the good stuff :) [20:29] as ubuntu dev i care that all our users benefit form a fix :) [20:29] so if its possible to get it in it should ... [20:29] well sure [20:30] cuz that will help uncover any more bugs :) [20:30] many* [20:33] i'm going to email scotty about the local apps thing [20:33] i have a friend who wants help me hack it [20:33] can you send me his email in a pm? [20:34] sbalneav@ltsp.org [20:34] no need for pm :) [20:38] ok. thanks ogra [20:38] i'll start putting time into it as well right after release [20:39] so, what is the best howto to use usptream ltsp for development on? [20:40] been wondering if i should help dberkholz with ltsp in gentoo, as a way to get more of a feeling on how it ties together at a deeper level [20:41] well, the upstream code is the deepest level you can get to i guess [20:41] everuything deeper depends on the knowledge of your os [20:41] since ltsp5 is all about distro integration [20:42] so work on the distro you are most familiar with [20:42] that makes most sense [20:43] dberkholz prolly doesn't have time to truly work on it, he just took over the PR position at gentoo it seems [20:43] plus whatever he does for a day job :) [20:43] well, he started something recently ... with vagrant [20:43] and maintaining most of the sci packages for gentoo [20:43] yes, the hackfest [20:43] right [20:44] i'll be finding more about that [20:44] that should ahve some outcome [20:44] i plan on deploying 99% of ltsp installs on ubuntu [20:44] i think he submitted a bunch of code upiostream [20:44] but, i have spent the most time actually using gentoo [20:44] i thinnk i saw a commit carrying his name [20:45] well, the actual final implementation of gentoo will very likely be massively different from ubuntus [20:45] the way you handle initramfs and netbooting, the way you handle the initscripts etc [20:46] we'll see what we can do to keep it as much commonality as possible [20:46] right [20:46] i think the common stuff is already quite fine after debian, ubuntu and redhat went over it [20:47] i dont think you will find much stuff that would be disturbing [20:47] hmm..so.. maybe i should have dev setup for both then.. [20:47] the tricky bits are the core pieces i listed above [23:40] hi all [23:40] im alumnoXX
