[00:07] whats up guys === mcfloppy is now known as kaffee === kaffee is now known as mcfloppy [03:03] Getting ARP timeout while attempting to get thin client to boot... any clues? [03:14] hey guys [03:14] how do i change my parttion so it locks [03:14] i have them all unlocked right now [06:17] oi, how do you configure the kernel in ubuntu [06:18] in gentoo i would cd /usr/src/linux, make menuconfig [06:18] cameron: is that an edubuntu question or perhaps an ubuntu one ? [06:19] i figure it would be the same [06:19] plus i like smaller chat rooms [06:19] feels more like a community [06:19] smaller has it's plus' as well as its drawbacks ... [06:20] ask the kernel Q in #ubuntu ... there are many more lower level tech guys there [06:22] https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/ia64/kernel-baking.html [06:22] http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/kernel-source-2.4.27 [06:22] "You may configure the kernel to your setup by typing "make config" and following instructions" [06:23] etc. [06:23] see if those links help [06:23] * RichEd-1 is rebooting [06:24] cameron: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile I think is maybe what you want [06:26] LaserJock: indeed. [06:29] brb [06:31] almost got my Ubuntu Fat clients working. super exciting. [06:31] one issue is my thin client is booting into initramfs instead of the ubuntu desktop I installed [06:31] could it be error with NFS? [06:31] (output scrolls too fast for me to see) [06:36] hiya RichEd [06:36] morning mr LaserJock [06:36] not sure if you saw, but I gave cameron https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to look at [06:37] http://dpaste.com/39773/ [06:37] ah ... thanks ... the links i popped up were clues, but not a direct match [06:37] That's my issue with the initramfs. I don't get why LTSP is serving it instead of my desktop! [06:37] just starting my day, still coffee deprived [06:40] Its booting the contents of /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ instead of /opt/ltsp/i386...what gives? [06:40] I thought that's what it was supposed to do [06:41] LaserJock: it is in ltsp4 (i'd help, but i dont know anything about 5) [06:41] 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] ...a RAM fs from the tftpboot dir. [06:42] well, I know what it's for on a thin client [06:42] not sure on a fat client what'd do [06:42] hmm, maybe it would be similar [06:42] You don't do ltsp_update_image with a thin client? [06:42] yes you do [06:43] so.... the stuff in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ has nothing to do with that. [06:43] sure it does [06:43] that's the kernel/initramfs that the client boots [06:43] but /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ is a different system than /opt/ltsp/i386 [06:43] then /opt/ltsp/i386/ is the chroot it botts into [06:43] I see. [06:44] yeah, but that's not a problem [06:44] well its not doing a very good job. i'm getting dumped into this darn initramfs [06:44] it's just where tftp finds the kernel to boot [06:45] I wish I could see the startup messages on the client [06:45] maybe there is an error triggering this [06:46] LaserJock: maybe NFS failed? [06:46] I guess that would be a possibility [06:47] I've not really ever run an LTSP setup so I'm just guessing from what I've read/heard [06:48] LaserJock: any theory how I can get my startup messages from client to server? [06:49] I don't think you can [06:49] well initramfs doesn't keep startup error logs [06:49] because you probably don't have the backward connection setup yet, I'm guessing anyway [06:50] Jeez. this bites. [06:51] stupid ram FS [06:59] tell it all to log to remote syslog? === blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog === blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog === mario_ is now known as pygi [11:12] Hallo! ist jemand hier von Edubuntu.de? === blue-frog_ is now known as blue-frog === RichEd-1 is now known as RIchEd === RIchEd is now known as RichEd [14:18] I'm having a problem with my thin client setup -- the client machine boots into initramfs and I can't figure out why. === blue-frog__ is now known as blue-frog === juliux_ is now known as juliux === mcfloppy is now known as floppybaer [16:21] ogra_, ogra_cmpc_: squeak-vm was *accepted* into Debian! [16:22] LaserJock, i noticed it was gone from NEW this morning [16:23] 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] 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] he's not here ... [18:50] ogra_cmpc_: Yeah, I checked after I posted. Maybe somebody else will be able to help, anyway. ;) [18:51] there was at least some community interest recently === ogra_cmpc_ is now known as ogra_cmpc [20:24] ogra_cmpc, ping [20:25] ogra_, ping [20:25] two pings are better then one;) [20:26] heh [20:29] he [20:30] hi [20:30] suchix is searching for you;) [20:30] yo, a little [20:34] hey suchix [20:35] ich weiß nicht, hat dir Julius erzählt worum es geht?

[20:37] i'm currently working 16-20h/day is what i told juliux already [20:37] i wont have any spare time before release [20:37] i see [20:37] i know [20:37] i think the teacher has to wait [20:37] i'm fine with visiting him after release ant take a look [20:38] *and [20:39] ich könnte dir seine Kontaktdaten mailen, wenn du das möchtest.. [20:39] ich hab ihn gefragt ob das ok geht, und er sagte ja! [20:39] gut, tu das [20:40] dann brauch ich nur eine Adresse [20:40] heh [20:40] 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] ogra_cmpc, perhaps you only have to switch your nick back to ogra;) [20:41] that the address is shorter;) [20:41] heh [20:41] * juliux @ubuntu.com [20:41] ;) [20:42] well, the suffix points out where i work [20:42] but for me that is not working;) [20:44] ogra_cmpc, btw we have the chance to drink one or two beers in prag;) [20:44] yay [20:44] thats wonderful news [20:44] or whiskey [20:44] what every you prefer;9 [20:44] whisky [20:44] ogra_cmpc: you have a mail [20:44] never write it with an e ... there could be scots around [20:45] suchix, thx [20:45] i know;) [20:45] * juliux is drink wishky atm;) [20:45] whisky [20:45] today is St. Patricks Day [20:46] hehe [20:46] so, we drink cider :) [20:46] 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] ogra_cmpc, are you flying from kassel to hannover? [20:48] there is no airport in kassel [20:48] ohhh [20:48] i thought kassel is called city [20:49] they only pretend to [20:50] hehe [20:50] so you are flying from hannover? dortmund? [20:50] frankfurt? [20:51] either hannover or frankfurt, didnt book yet [20:51] probably even train [20:52] hmm [20:52] i use the travelagents to book my flights;) [20:52] hi LaserJock [21:02] 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] I unmounted my ntfs partition how do i remount it? [22:25] 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] How do I upgrade to GNOME 2.22? [22:54] weird questions today [22:54] indeed :) [22:55] not so much weird I guess as really off topic [22:56] I guess it's hard to know what's Ubuntu and what's Edubuntu related [23:50] ogra_cmpc: this debian squeak package is a bit interesting as well [23:50] ogra_cmpc: it's got about 1MB worth of dpatches in debian/patches/
