Ashfire908What do I install to get LTSP clients to have a GUI?02:13
Ashfire908Do I just install the GUI I want?02:14
dan63043do you have clients booting into a terminal session?02:15
Ashfire908They boot to ldm but logons result in an error saying it can't start the X session.02:17
Ashfire908It says it can't find any .xsession file, a window manager, session manager, or a terminal emulator.02:18
dan63043did you google on any of the messages?02:19
Ashfire908This isn't actually going to be a real edubuntu install, but I assume this is the best place to ask about LTSP.02:19
dan63043a .xsession file is usually in a user's home directory02:19
Ashfire908dan63043: Well, I know what the errors are...02:19
dan63043there's a chroot command that occurs as ltsp starts up02:20
dan63043you might not have anything setup02:20
dan63043do you have directory named /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11 ?02:20
Ashfire908Yes, but I have no actual GUI.02:21
Ashfire908So i'm asking what do I do to install one.02:22
Ashfire908Do I just install the normal package for the GUI?02:23
Ashfire908Or do I do something special?02:23
dan63043ahh, i've read something just lately (i'm pretty new at this too)02:24
dan63043to get the same packages on your clients, I think I have a link you can read02:25
Ashfire908Ok.02:25
dan63043Updating your LTSP chroot02:26
dan63043http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/edubuntu/handbook/C/ltsp-updates.html02:27
dan63043I know that this is specifically for updates, but I think you need to do something similar to add packages for the clients02:29
dan63043but remember that i'm a noob (to ltsp)02:29
Ashfire908I bet there is a better way...02:31
Ashfire908Acutally, nvm.02:32

juliuxwhere have you been saturday?11:32
juliuxwe missed you at linuxtag11:32
ograyeah, stuck in kassel11:32
ograno trains11:33
juliuxtsts11:33
juliuxi talked with hans-peter merkel at linuxtag, liunux4afrika will switch to x2go11:33
juliuxand they are not sure if they will use ubuntu longer11:33
highvoltagejuliwhat is linux4africa?11:51
ograjuliux, why is that ?12:04
ograstgraber, hmm, did x11vnc change ? italc seems to break on it13:45
* ogra just got a bunch of FTBFS mails13:46
stgraberogra: oh ?15:16
stgraberogra: I don't think it synced the x11vnc code ... can you forward the ftbfs mail ?15:17
ograare you not getting the edubuntu-italc-team mails ?15:18
ograhttp://launchpadlibrarian.net/14902204/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-i386.italc_1%3A1.0.8-0ubuntu1%7Eppa5_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz15:18
juliuxogra: he doesn't like ltps any more an no ubuntu because he needs ldap support15:35
juliuxogra: but i only get this via a very short notice at the last day, so let's see what realy happen15:36
juliuxogra: and i think they are a little bit frustrated that they didn't get any support from canonical15:37
ogradid they ask ?15:39
stgraberogra: I'm giving 1.0.9 a try in a pbuilder15:59
stgraberogra: 1.0.9 fails too, so it's something in Intrepid that goes wrong ... /me wonders what16:06
ogravnc being out of sync with X ? do we use any extrenal vnc builddep ?16:06
stgrabernope16:06
stgraberx11vnc is entirely integrated in iTalc's code (slightly modified IIRC)16:07
ograhmm16:07
stgraberogra: do you know if x11vnc built fine ?16:10
ograno idea16:10
stgraberaccording to Tobias it should show the exact same problem16:11
stgraberI'm trying a rebuild of x11vnc here, if it fails it's either a bug we introduced in some build deps or an upstream bug (new gcc ?)16:13
stgraberogra: x11vnc 0.9.3 built fine but iTalc's based on 0.9.4 so the bug might have been introduced in 0.9.4 beta16:19
ograah16:19
stgraberit's now building a 0.9.4 package of x11vnc (I just took the beta from upstream, no packaging changes were needed)16:27
stgraberif it fails it'll likely be an upstream bug16:27
ograyeah16:28
cwatersGood morning.16:42
cwatersIf I have an Ubuntu install already, to get edubuntu, is it just a matter of selecting the edubuntu-desktop packages?16:43
cwatersI have an old laptop that would be great for my son to use but there is no optical drive so I have to pxe boot etc....to do an install so I am hoping for a shortcut.16:44
johnnyyes..16:44
cwatersExcellent.16:44
johnnyit's just an addon cd in hardy16:44
cwatersThat's what I thought but I just wanted to be sure before I started.16:44
cwaters#ubuntu16:45
cwaterswhoops sorry16:45
juliuxogra: they mailed more then onetime somebody from canonical18:01
juliuxogra: for example jono about the linuxtag but there was no response18:01
