| thismamacooks200 | if I run a repeating playlist or a long video in *any* media player, it stops playing and the player eventually stop playing sound at all until I close and restart it. I also have the same problem with audio in firefox. Games also will not make sound if firefox or a media player are opened first. | 06:34 |

| sbalneav | Morning all | 14:54 |
| Eeyore-Jr | hi. i quite a few questions | 18:15 |
| Eeyore-Jr | can i use ltsp server as a central login/home/storage server but use standalone machines | 18:15 |
| sbalneav | Eeyore-Jr: You could | 18:37 |
| sbalneav | It'd take a bit of modification of things, but not too much | 18:37 |
| Nubae | Eeyore-Jr: take a look at www.nubae.com theres an article about using ltsp to serve fat clients... which is more or less what u want, except there is no data stored on the client machines | 18:48 |
| Eeyore-Jr | Nubae: thx | 19:03 |
| Eeyore-Jr | so ltsp will serve to pii 450 with 512mb ram and work as well as it were if it were running on the server? | 19:11 |
| Eeyore-Jr | someone referred me here, as i was looking at ubuntu intrepid server and installing ltsp. is there a difference between edubuntu and ubuntu + ltsp ? | 19:12 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i'm looking for "lean" | 19:12 |
| sbalneav | edubuntu = ubuntu + ltsp + educational apps | 19:13 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i've looked at the educational apps, and some of them are cheesy. i've been thinking about paying someone to build some apps | 19:13 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i guess my question about edubuntu was, is it pre-configured, or does it matter for ltsp ? | 19:14 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ah, and what about windows apps on wine. run the same way ? | 19:14 |
| sbalneav | Why not pay to have someone help to make the current apps less cheesy :) That benefits us all, then. | 19:15 |
| sbalneav | Yes. | 19:15 |
| Eeyore-Jr | sbalneav: well, yes, there is that | 19:15 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ok, next question, i can install ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, e17 on ubuntu ltsp and let the end user choose his desktop ? | 19:16 |
| sbalneav | Well, you simply install whatever desktops you'd like on the server, and then the user can choose from there. | 19:16 |
| Eeyore-Jr | going the ubuntu server route, i'm going to need xwindows as well | 19:17 |
| sbalneav | yes | 19:17 |
| Eeyore-Jr | nm, i'll kubuntu it and then do e17 | 19:17 |
| Nubae | Eeyore-Jr: if u want ltsp, you're best of sticking with ubuntu | 19:35 |
| Lns | Nubae! | 20:01 |
| DrX | how can you see the version of your RAID driver? | 20:25 |
| sbalneav | DrX: Some context would be useful :) | 20:58 |
| sbalneav | I mean, uname -a gives you your kernel version, which, depending on your raid driver (i.e. if it's a built in one) is also it's version | 20:59 |

| Eeyore-Jr | Nubae: ? | 21:21 |
| Eeyore-Jr | any particular reason why stick with ubuntu? | 21:21 |
| Nubae | cause ltsp has been heavily tested on Ubuntu only... | 21:22 |
| Nubae | its definitely gnome reliant | 21:23 |
| Eeyore-Jr | :( | 21:23 |
| Eeyore-Jr | guess i'll be a guine pig | 21:23 |
| Eeyore-Jr | :) | 21:23 |
| Nubae | doesnt mean u cant run kubuntu, its just apt-getting the ltsp server stuff | 21:23 |
| Nubae | but u'd have less problems with ubuntu | 21:24 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ah, that's what i think i'm doing now with bare ubuntu server | 21:24 |
| Eeyore-Jr | less probelms because edubuntu or ubuntu has better confiugriaon | 21:24 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i noticed in aptitude there is standalone, vs server ... port forwarding boot requests? | 22:00 |
| Eeyore-Jr | what is a fused server? | 22:05 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i suppose i could put the standalone on now and then sepearte the two later | 22:07 |
| Eeyore-Jr | looks like there is clietn and client-core ... but adept doesn't tell me what is so different about them | 22:10 |
| sbalneav | ltsp-server-standalone includes the dhcp3-server package being installed. ltsp-server doesn't include the dhcp3-server package. | 22:18 |
| sbalneav | Most people want the -standalone package, as they typically don't have a dhcp server already. | 22:18 |
| varikk | Hello all | 22:21 |
| varikk | can anyone point me to some documentation that explains setting up an edubuntu server for my school and thin clients? | 22:22 |
| sbalneav | !docs | 22:29 |
| ubottu | documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 22:29 |
| sbalneav | Also: | 22:29 |
| sbalneav | http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LtspDocumentationUpstream | 22:30 |
| sbalneav | Heading home | 22:31 |
| sbalneav | be on later | 22:31 |
| Eeyore-Jr | well, i'm about ready to test the idea of ltsp on a consumer machine with 7 clients and see if it works. :) | 22:32 |
| Eeyore-Jr | k, has anyone tried to use music software with a usb piano keyboard and ltsp server serving the app? | 23:04 |
| Eeyore-Jr | or i guess the question is, does ltsp recognize the local usb ports | 23:04 |
| Eeyore-Jr | is there a way to "monitor" a ltsp workstation? ie, see what is going on video wise? | 23:22 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ah, ha, hit f4 and the ltsp server will install | 23:28 |
| Eeyore-Jr | hrm, 8.10 does not have a ltsp option | 23:31 |
| Nubae | really | 23:32 |
| Nubae | it should... the alpha and beta did | 23:32 |
| Nubae | make sure its the alternative cd | 23:33 |
| Eeyore-Jr | i'm on the beta, and f4 only gives normal and minimal | 23:33 |
| Nubae | alternative cd? | 23:33 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ubuntu server cd or ubuntu alternate? | 23:33 |
| Nubae | ubuntu alternate | 23:33 |
| Eeyore-Jr | is there an ubuntuer server alternate? | 23:33 |
| Nubae | no | 23:33 |
| Eeyore-Jr | ah. booting from ubuntu, xubuntu or kuubntu will install ltsp for that particular flavor? or just a base ubuntu ltsp server? | 23:34 |
| Nubae | particular flavour | 23:36 |
