[00:07] <shawn__> whats up guys
[03:03] <subsume> Getting ARP timeout while attempting to get thin client to boot... any clues?
[03:14] <shawn__> hey guys
[03:14] <shawn__> how do i change my parttion so it locks
[03:14] <shawn__> i have them all unlocked right now
[06:17] <cameron> oi, how do you configure the kernel in ubuntu
[06:18] <cameron> in gentoo i would cd /usr/src/linux, make menuconfig
[06:18] <RichEd-1> cameron: is that an edubuntu question or perhaps an ubuntu one ?
[06:19] <cameron> i figure it would be the same
[06:19] <cameron> plus i like smaller chat rooms
[06:19] <cameron> feels more like a community
[06:19] <RichEd-1> smaller has it's plus' as well as its drawbacks ...
[06:20] <RichEd-1> ask the kernel Q in #ubuntu ... there are many more lower level tech guys there
[06:22] <RichEd-1> https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/ia64/kernel-baking.html
[06:22] <RichEd-1> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/kernel-source-2.4.27
[06:22] <RichEd-1> "You may configure the kernel to your setup by typing "make config" and following instructions"
[06:23] <RichEd-1> etc.
[06:23] <RichEd-1> see if those links help
[06:23]  * RichEd-1 is rebooting
[06:24] <LaserJock> cameron: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile I think is maybe what you want
[06:26] <cameron> LaserJock: indeed.
[06:29] <cameron> brb
[06:31] <subsume> almost got my Ubuntu Fat clients working. super exciting.
[06:31] <subsume> one issue is my thin client is booting into initramfs instead of the ubuntu desktop I installed
[06:31] <subsume> could it be error with NFS?
[06:31] <subsume> (output scrolls too fast for me to see)
[06:36] <LaserJock> hiya RichEd
[06:36] <RichEd> morning mr LaserJock
[06:36] <LaserJock> not sure if you saw, but I gave cameron https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to look at
[06:37] <subsume> http://dpaste.com/39773/
[06:37] <RichEd> ah  ... thanks ... the links i popped up were clues, but not a direct match
[06:37] <subsume> That's my issue with the initramfs. I don't get why LTSP is serving it instead of my desktop!
[06:37] <RichEd> just starting my day, still coffee deprived
[06:40] <subsume> Its booting the contents of /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ instead of /opt/ltsp/i386...what gives?
[06:40] <LaserJock> I thought that's what it was supposed to do
[06:41] <kgoetz> LaserJock: it is in ltsp4 (i'd help, but i dont know anything about 5)
[06:41] <subsume> LaserJock: So what is the point of installing anything in /opt/ltsp/i386.... if its just going to give me a RAM fs?
[06:41] <subsume> ...a RAM fs from the tftpboot dir.
[06:42] <LaserJock> well, I know what it's for on a thin client
[06:42] <LaserJock> not sure on a fat client what'd do
[06:42] <LaserJock> hmm, maybe it would be similar
[06:42] <subsume> You don't do ltsp_update_image with a thin client?
[06:42] <LaserJock> yes you do
[06:43] <subsume> so.... the stuff in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ has nothing to do with that.
[06:43] <LaserJock> sure it does
[06:43] <LaserJock> that's the kernel/initramfs that the client boots
[06:43] <subsume> but /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ is a different system than /opt/ltsp/i386
[06:43] <LaserJock> then /opt/ltsp/i386/ is the chroot it botts into
[06:43] <subsume> I see.
[06:44] <LaserJock> yeah, but that's not a problem
[06:44] <subsume> well its not doing a very good job. i'm getting dumped into this darn initramfs
[06:44] <LaserJock> it's just where tftp finds the kernel to boot
[06:45] <subsume> I wish I could see the startup messages on the client
[06:45] <subsume> maybe there is an error triggering this
[06:46] <subsume> LaserJock: maybe NFS failed?
[06:46] <LaserJock> I guess that would be a possibility
[06:47] <LaserJock> I've not really ever run an LTSP setup so I'm just guessing from what I've read/heard
[06:48] <subsume> LaserJock: any theory how I can get my startup messages from client to server?
[06:49] <LaserJock> I don't think you can
[06:49] <subsume> well initramfs doesn't keep startup error logs
[06:49] <LaserJock> because you probably don't have the backward connection setup yet, I'm guessing anyway
[06:50] <subsume> Jeez. this bites.
[06:51] <subsume> stupid ram FS
[06:59] <johnny> tell it all to log to remote syslog?
[11:12] <rft> Hallo! ist jemand hier von Edubuntu.de?
[14:18] <subsume|work> I'm having a problem with my thin client setup -- the client machine boots into initramfs and I can't figure out why.
[16:21] <LaserJock> ogra_, ogra_cmpc_: squeak-vm was *accepted* into Debian!
[16:22] <ogra_cmpc_> LaserJock, i noticed it was gone from NEW this morning
[16:23] <subsume|work> I'm having a problem with my thin client setup -- the client machine boots into initramfs and I can't figure out why. How to get startup error messages from client to server?
[18:50] <moquist> I'm experimenting with diskless thick clients. I've done 'apt-get ubuntu-desktop' in the chroot (this is feisty, actually) and I'm wondering if anybody has any OTOHH advice for me about problems I'll have before I have a workable kiosk-like system.
[18:50] <ogra_cmpc_> he's not here  ...
[18:50] <moquist> ogra_cmpc_: Yeah, I checked after I posted. Maybe somebody else will be able to help, anyway. ;)
[18:51] <ogra_cmpc_> there was at least some community interest recently
[20:24] <juliux> ogra_cmpc, ping
[20:25] <juliux> ogra_, ping
[20:25] <juliux> two pings are better then one;)
[20:26] <ogra_cmpc> heh
[20:29] <juliux> he
[20:30] <suchix> hi
[20:30] <juliux> suchix is searching for you;)
[20:30] <suchix> yo, a little
[20:34] <ogra_cmpc> hey suchix
[20:35] <suchix> ich weiß nicht, hat dir Julius erzählt worum es geht?
[20:36] <suchix> there is a teacher and he needs help about IGEL in a thinclient network
[20:36] <suchix> he lives in Kassel
[20:36] <ogra_cmpc> right, i heard that
[20:36] <suchix> ok
[20:37] <suchix> want you help him?
[20:37] <ogra_cmpc> i'm currently working 16-20h/day is what i told juliux already
[20:37] <ogra_cmpc> i wont have any spare time before release
[20:37] <suchix> i see
[20:37] <juliux> i know
[20:37] <juliux> i think the teacher has to wait
[20:37] <ogra_cmpc> i'm fine with visiting him after release ant take a look
[20:38] <ogra_cmpc> *and
[20:39] <suchix> ich könnte dir seine Kontaktdaten mailen, wenn du das möchtest..
[20:39] <suchix> ich hab ihn gefragt ob das ok geht, und er sagte ja!
[20:39] <ogra_cmpc> gut, tu das
[20:40] <suchix> dann brauch ich nur eine Adresse
[20:40] <ogra_cmpc> heh
[20:40] <ogra_cmpc> ogra@ubuntu.com
[20:40]  * ogra_cmpc thought that was well known enough :)
[20:41]  * ogra_cmpc needs to work more on his celebrity state ... so people dont have to ask :P
[20:41] <juliux> ogra_cmpc, perhaps you only have to switch your nick back to ogra;)
[20:41] <juliux> that the address is shorter;)
[20:41] <ogra_cmpc> heh
[20:41]  * juliux @ubuntu.com
[20:41] <juliux> ;)
[20:42] <ogra_cmpc> well, the suffix points out where i work
[20:42] <juliux> but for me that is not working;)
[20:44] <juliux> ogra_cmpc, btw we have the chance to drink one or two beers in prag;)
[20:44] <ogra_cmpc> yay
[20:44] <ogra_cmpc> thats wonderful news
[20:44] <juliux> or whiskey
[20:44] <juliux> what every you prefer;9
[20:44] <ogra_cmpc> whisky
[20:44] <suchix> ogra_cmpc: you have a mail
[20:44] <ogra_cmpc> never write it with an e ... there could be scots around
[20:45] <ogra_cmpc> suchix, thx
[20:45] <juliux> i know;)
[20:45]  * juliux is drink wishky atm;)
[20:45] <juliux> whisky
[20:45] <suchix> today is St. Patricks Day

[20:46] <suchix> so, we drink cider :)
[20:46] <ogra_cmpc> thats actually a good idea  ... i have some johnny walker green left
[20:46]  * juliux has ballantines 
[20:47]  * suchix drink lapacho tea
[20:48] <juliux> ogra_cmpc, are you flying from kassel to hannover?
[20:48] <ogra_cmpc> there is no airport in kassel
[20:48] <juliux> ohhh
[20:48] <juliux> i thought kassel is called city
[20:49] <ogra_cmpc> they only pretend to
[20:50] <juliux> hehe
[20:50] <juliux> so you are flying from hannover? dortmund?
[20:50] <juliux> frankfurt?
[20:51] <ogra_cmpc> either hannover or frankfurt, didnt book yet
[20:51] <ogra_cmpc> probably even train
[20:52] <juliux> hmm
[20:52] <juliux> i use the travelagents to book my flights;)
[20:52] <juliux> hi LaserJock
[21:02] <shiv> I need to make a bootable iso of my system with the /home folder in it. Which one of these commands should I use? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html
[21:30] <shiv> I unmounted my ntfs partition how do i remount it?
[22:25] <shiv> I unmounted the sda1(ntfs) from the desktop for making remastersys. How do I remount it back on the desktop and make it mount everytime I boot?
[22:42] <theunixgeek> How do I upgrade to GNOME 2.22?
[22:54] <LaserJock> weird questions today
[22:54] <stgraber> indeed :)
[22:55] <LaserJock> not so much weird I guess as really off topic
[22:56] <stgraber> I guess it's hard to know what's Ubuntu and what's Edubuntu related
[23:50] <LaserJock> ogra_cmpc: this debian squeak package is a bit interesting as well
[23:50] <LaserJock> ogra_cmpc: it's got about 1MB worth of dpatches in debian/patches/
