[02:44] <supreme> I finally discovered the problem with session restarting in a intel chipset !!!
[02:44] <supreme> it's cause e1000 module
[02:45] <kgoetz> e1000 has firmware doesnt it?
[02:46] <supreme> i actually dont know, but reading about the problem I realize intel chipset has a problem with its gigabit integrated network card
[02:47] <supreme> 'Corrupted MAC on input'  <--- that was exactly the error in auth.log after rebooting x session in some terminal
[05:23] <BBlake> Hello, is anyone willing to try and help me with installation woes on a laptop?
[05:28] <LaserJock> what kind of woes?
[05:41] <BBlake> Sorry, I got distracted.
[05:41] <BBlake> It's having trouble with the hdd. I can install Vector Linux but Edubuntu wont play nicely.
[05:42] <LaserJock> what does it do?
[05:43] <BBlake> Okay lets see
[05:44] <BBlake> I get as far as writing the partition changes to disks - that's where it craps out
[05:44] <LaserJock> not a particularly great spot to do that
[05:45] <LaserJock> does it give and error message or anything?
[05:45] <LaserJock> have you done the CD check that's in the boot menu?
[05:45] <BBlake> It can give one of several, this time it shows babble about "The instalelr needs to remove operating system files from the install target, but was unable to do so. The install cannot continue". It can also give other complaints though.
[05:46] <BBlake> And that is babble because it's unformatted :P
[05:46] <LaserJock> weird
[05:46] <BBlake> I tried using the generic IDE driver but that didn't help
[05:47] <LaserJock> and what kind of install are you doing exactly?
[05:47] <BBlake> normal
[05:47] <BBlake> um, as in workstation
[05:47] <LaserJock> k
[05:47] <LaserJock> on 7.10?
[05:47] <BBlake> I'm using the hardy dvd
[05:49] <LaserJock> BBlake: oh
[05:49] <LaserJock> BBlake: you might talk to #ubuntu+1
[05:50] <LaserJock> the text-based installer for Edubuntu is the same as for Ubuntu
[05:50] <LaserJock> and they have a larger audience
[05:50] <BBlake> Mkay
[05:50] <LaserJock> I really don't know how to help you at the moment
[05:50] <LaserJock> other than doing the CD check to make sure you got a good burn
[05:50] <BBlake> Thanks for your time (and I've checked the DVD)
[05:50] <LaserJock> since it's hardy it could be a bug
[05:51] <BBlake> I get the same thing with the 7.10 CD tho
[05:51] <BBlake> (I tested)
[05:51] <LaserJock> hmm
[05:51] <LaserJock> odd
[05:56] <LaserJock> BBlake: I gotta get to bed, sorry I'm not much help
[05:57] <BBlake> No problem.
[06:24] <remitaylor> i have multiple working thin clients, but one, which is using a pxe emulator from rom-o-matic, sees my gateway as the rootserver and dhcp's to my main LAN network instead of to the LTSP server ... all mounts fail because it things 10.5.5.1 (my LAN gateway) is the LTSP server ... has anyone run into something similar?
[08:13] <remitaylor> as soon as my thin clients start to boot (after dhcp-ing properly from my ltsp server), they re-dhcp and hit my LAN's main dhcp server ... this gives them a new IP and, more importantly, they lose their rootserver (becomes the gateway instead of my ltsp server) and their rootpath (becomes empty) ... and they drop to busybox.  anyone know how i can prevent this?  can i add something to my /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf or some
[08:19] <remitaylor> you can see what it's doing here [http://remi.org/ltsp-redhcp.png] ... it gets an IP from my ltsp's dhcp and starts to boot ... but re-dhcps, gets a new ip, and loses my rootserver/rootpath  :(  (gw=10.5.5.1,ltsp=.99,gw-dhcp-range=.100-110,ltsp-dhcp-range=.170-180)
[11:36] <kwak> 	hi, does anyone here know of a presentation about opensource not just ltsp but also using Linux. I will present open source and the use of Linux OS in our school in two weeks
[11:36] <kwak> I want to show them the PROs and the CONs and other information.
[11:36]  * ogra_cmpc points kwak to RichEd-1 
[11:36] <mcfloppy> hello
[11:37] <mcfloppy> i have a runnung LTSP under Debian Etch. yesterday i done a server reboot. now the clients dont show the loginmanager. when i use the ldm, it works, but slow.
[11:37] <mcfloppy> what can this be?
[11:39] <ogra_cmpc> no idea, we dont suport anything but ldm in ubuntu (its possible to use xdmcp, but not encouraged)
[11:40] <ogra_cmpc> (also etch is pretty ancient, it would be on par with ubuntu edgy which will be unsupported soon, ltsp changed a lot in these 18 months since then)
[11:41] <ogra_cmpc> mcfloppy, best is to sit in #ltsp and wait for vagrantc, he maintains the debian port
[11:43] <mcfloppy> thank you
[11:43] <mcfloppy> ill do so
[16:00] <supreme> hi all
[16:01] <supreme> somebody knows about 'Corrupted MAC on input' error?
[16:06] <supreme> somebody?
[16:10] <supreme> ubotu, have you ever used edubuntu as thin client server, right?
[16:11] <supreme> lol
[16:11] <supreme> ogra_cmpc, have you ever used edubuntu as thin client server, right?  And wich specific hardware configuration have you used?
[16:28] <supreme> somebody... help... me
[16:28] <LaserJock> supreme: try #ltsp, they might be more help
[18:01] <LaserJock> ogra: seems like most of the responses for specs are LTSP related
[18:03] <ogra> thats what i suspected
[18:03] <ogra> i'm actually waiting for the first request for AD integration :P
[19:44] <Muhammad_Saad> Hello ogra_cmpc, The keyboard layout file is not Ubuntu specific. It is a part of the xkb-data package. What should I do?
[21:58] <sl0000> has anybody install edubunut 7.10 with ltsp
[21:59] <LaserJock> lots of people have
[21:59] <LaserJock> :-)
[21:59] <LaserJock> sl0000: do you have a particular question about it?
[22:00] <sl0000> yes, I have just install edubuntu 7.10 and I cannot get my client to boot in pxe
[22:03] <LaserJock> sl0000: do you have one NIC or two on the server?
[22:07] <sl0000> i have two nic and whe I boot my thin client up.  I keep getting the cursor.
[22:34] <LaserJock> ogra: should I do one last edubuntu-docs upload now?
[22:35] <ogra> do you have fixes öeft ?
[22:35] <ogra> *left
[22:35] <LaserJock> no, it would just be updating translations
[22:35] <LaserJock> well, kinda I guess
[22:35] <ogra> sure, thats always good
[22:35] <LaserJock> I had a mistake with the release month of Hardy
[22:35] <LaserJock> I accidentally said Hardy was being released October 2007 ;-)
[22:35] <ogra> heh
[22:36] <LaserJock> I thought I had it all fixed, but my .pot had a mistake
[22:36] <LaserJock> so I reuploaded a few weeks ago
[22:36] <LaserJock> to get "April" translated
[22:36] <LaserJock> so I'd like to pick up as many of those as possible
[22:36] <sl0000> helo
[22:36] <LaserJock> ogra: do you have a sec to help sl0000 with a 7.10 LTSP problem?
[22:37] <LaserJock> sl0000: another place you can ask is #ltsp
[22:38] <LaserJock> my guess is that it's an X problem with your video driver
[22:38] <ogra> tell me abount it
[22:40] <LaserJock> ogra: from earlier: sl0000: i have two nic and whe I boot my thin client up.  I keep getting the cursor.
[22:40] <ogra> sl0000, do you know which graphics hardware is in the client ?
[22:41] <sl0000> i install on a dell 6550 server
[22:42] <sl0000> join /#ltsp
[22:42] <LaserJock> sl0000: but what about the thin clients?
[22:43] <sl0000> i install on a compaq with intel integrate card built in.  I boot up and the splash screen comes up
[22:44] <sl0000> after the splash it has a cursor. i heard that I need to use the ltsp-manger to configure the client environment but I install the package and was unble to run in terminal
[22:44] <ogra> no, you dont need that
[22:45] <ogra> sudo gedit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf
[22:45] <ogra> add the following lines:
[22:45] <ogra> [default]
[22:45] <ogra>     X_COLOR_DEPTH=24
[22:46] <ogra> save the file, reboot the client
[22:46] <ogra> (thats fixed in hardy btw)
[22:46] <sl0000> the client boot up through pxe
[22:48] <sl0000> let me try .
[22:52] <sl0000> I runing ltsp 5 and cannot find lts.conf on /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lst.conf
[22:54] <ogra> just create it as i showed above
[23:01] <sl0000> ok, now pxe is now working
[23:03] <ogra> you see the login screen ?
[23:04] <sl0000> no, I having problem pxe booting
