=== brandonperry_ is now known as brandonperry [04:57] anyone here? [04:57] I could use some help setting up some systems for a school [04:58] hello? === |hfsdo| is now known as hfsdo [14:36] Does anybody know of patch to the 64bit ltsp so it won't lock up? [14:37] ?? can you elaborate ? [14:37] you have 64bit clients that done work ? [14:37] *dont [14:38] ogra - once we get a about 10 clients going with some multimedia the server just locks up [14:38] define "some multimedia" [14:38] ogra - the box has 8GB or ram and is doing fine and then just stops, I have read some other [14:38] people having the same issue [14:38] like everyone using rhythmbox at the same time ? [14:39] ogra - realplayer and a few and Writer on a few, variety of apps, I even had it happen on a two client test setup [14:39] anything in the logs ? [14:40] Sadly we have already wiped the machine and are testing other options, so I don't know [14:40] I heard 32bit was solid. [14:40] it should be, yes [14:41] (as should amd64 though, i'D really like to know what that was) [14:41] ogra - have you heard of this happening before, or do most people use 32 bit. [14:41] What logs would help you the most [14:42] well, i had a lot good feedback for hardy amd64 vs gutsy, but that was merely because flash finally works there [14:42] ogra: did you see that bug about http proxy and ltsp-build-client ? (reading /etc/apt/apt.conf) [14:42] i havent heard of random lockups though [14:42] ogra: it's easy to fix but I don't know if debootstrap uses /etc/apt/apt.conf, if it doesn't there is no point in fixing it [14:42] stgraber, yeah, its a duplicate [14:43] i was discussing it with vagrant a while ago but we didnt come to a proper solution yet ... since there are at least two places to define the proxy [14:43] yes and IIRC the Ubuntu way is to create a file in apt.conf.d no ? [14:43] either /etc/apt/apt.conf or as http_proxy env variable. the fix needs to handle both [14:44] i dotn want a ubuntu alone solution ... the advantage of having something deban can use too is that they do the maintenance :) [14:44] http_proxy currently works fine for both debootstrap and apt-get, apt.conf doesn't for any, can be solved for apt-get but that's useless if debootstrap doesn't use it [15:01] Does anybody have a good link for setting up autologin with LTSP? [15:01] ogra - we are setting up a new 64bit box for testing? [15:01] you need to set LDM_AUTOLOGIN=True, LDM_USERNAME and LDM_PASSWORD in lts.conf [15:02] ogra - if the usernames are the same, does this cause problems on the server with 100 clients [15:02] yes [15:03] ogra - what do you recommend [15:03] not with the server but with the apps [15:03] can you do login based on hostname [15:03] create one user per client u [15:06] ogra - How do point each host machine to a differnet username? [15:07] i think Gadin in #ltsp had a script for that, try to catch him there [15:07] *Gadi [15:08] ogra - If you were starting with 100 hosts and were planning on going up to 300 very soon, what approach would you take (network authentication etc) [15:09] i dont care about hosts, the question is how many users do you have ? :) [15:09] (often thats more than the number of hosts) [15:10] about 2000 users [15:10] We were looking at network filestorege for file access at school and home [15:10] yeah, well, a separation of appservers vs bootservers would be the first step i guess [15:11] sorry, got a meeting now ... look at the mille-xterm scripts (i think stgraber can poit you to something) they do things like automatic appserver detection in ldm etc [15:11] Thanks ogra, you have been a great help [15:12] i'll be back soon [15:13] join #ltsp [16:41] how to get involved in edubuntu === greeneggsnospam is now known as jsgotangco [17:48] is it possible to install edubuntu on QEMU? [20:24] I need some feedback, would you do Edubuntu 7.1 or 8.04 for LTSP? [20:27] 8.04, it's LTS
