| Circe | New to using IRC, what does it seem that freenode lags a lot | 03:42 |
| RichEdcmpc | ogra: feeling better today i hope ? | 10:08 |
| stgraber | RichEdcmpc: still in London ? | 10:18 |
| RichEdcmpc | stgraber: indeed ... | 10:20 |
| RichEdcmpc | a lot on the go at the moment ... but looking good to get some more structure & better attention to the channel & requests | 10:20 |
| RichEdcmpc | stgraber: how are things your side ? | 10:21 |
| ogra | RichEdcmpc, slightly better .... no more fever but still headdache like hell, coughing and running nose | 10:21 |
| ogra | will be fun to be on stage on sat | 10:21 |
| stgraber | RichEdcmpc: not much from Ubuntu side, waiting for a new release of iTalc (takes long ...) and I have 4 specs to do by Tuesday + exams next week | 10:22 |
| stgraber | so that's paperwork and not a lot of real tech stuff | 10:22 |

| * stgraber is having fun trying to make a PXE-like wireless boot for thin clients | 16:01 | |
| stgraber | the only problem will be to have all wireless tools and drivers in the initrd, otherwise it's easy as long as you have a hdd (and script updating the kernel on the hdd) | 16:07 |
| ogra | well, look at the initramfs hooks of udev for an example hw to get the wlan tools in | 16:08 |
| stgraber | having iwconfig and wpa_supplicant will be the easy part (I already have them here), my problem is the kernel modules + firmware for intel wireless | 16:08 |
| stgraber | if I have those loaded, you'll only need to boot the computer using standard ethernet once and then you'll have kernel+initrd installed on the hdd updating when they change on the server (checked every boot) | 16:09 |
| stgraber | the wireless config would be stored in the initramfs and everything would just work (doesn't look so hard when described this way :)) | 16:10 |
| ogra | well, *anyone* can get your initramfs via tftp and read the key | 16:11 |
| stgraber | anyone in this case would be someone with access on the network which in most case will be fine | 16:11 |
| stgraber | the key could also be set as kernel parameter, would be a bit better I guess | 16:13 |
| ogra | yeah | 16:13 |
| ogra | i mean, well | 16:14 |
| ogra | yu still can get it via tftp | 16:14 |
| stgraber | nope | 16:14 |
| ogra | there is no real secure solution here i guess | 16:14 |
| stgraber | the key would be set by my install script and would be stored in the menu.lst on the client | 16:14 |
| stgraber | in fact, I never use tftp except for the initial boot (before the local partition is created) | 16:15 |
| stgraber | so the key would be written on the client hdd when installed and would never travel on the network | 16:15 |
| stgraber | (with my setup, the only tftp query that's done is the one to get lts.conf, kernel and initrd are stored locally and updated when changed on the server) | 16:16 |

| lns | Does anyone know if there is a way to install adblock-plus in Hardy for all users with a specific subscription list, so every time a user logs in for the first time it doesn't prompt them to subscribe? I'd love to use adblock but it seems redundant to have each user do this...and dunno whether this is a problem with the addon or with Firefox or with *buntu package... ? | 22:51 |
