Ahmuck | hi. if the server motherboard does not have sound, does the ltsp client that does have onboard sound produce sound ? | 02:24 |
---|---|---|
stgraber | Ahmuck: should be | 03:02 |
Ahmuck | stgraber: thx. found the anser ealier in #ltsp | 03:07 |
Ahmuck | my final question. i'd like to offer ubuntu, kubuntu and opengeu as desktops, perhaps xubuntu as well. these all have sepearate menus. in my testing after "sudo aptitude install kubuntu" i noticed kubuntu items with ubuntu items. is there a way to isolate menus | 03:36 |
Ahmuck | well, next to final. i assume there is a way to "strip" out menu items that require super user access? | 03:36 |
Ahmuck | i assume that i can do normal partitioning, (/, /home, /var, /tmp, /usr/local)? | 03:52 |
HedgeMage | Ahmuck: they are only presented to people in the sudoers file anyway | 03:56 |
Ahmuck | HedgeMage: thx u, thx u | 03:56 |
Ahmuck | i was logging in as a sudoer and noticed the menu selection, have not got as far to test with a normal user | 03:57 |
HedgeMage | np | 03:58 |
Ahmuck | is the wiki a comprehensive manual? | 04:04 |
Ahmuck | that is what i'm looking for now. reading on adding users, etc. | 04:04 |
helpme | hi sorry if i wrong. i want to ask about ltsp 5. problem with old machine ACPI: DMI BIOS year==0, assuming ACPI-capable machine, somebody help? | 04:19 |
Ahmuck | helpme: always just ask/state your question/problem | 04:21 |
helpme | my problem how to set acpi off, in etherboot enviroment? | 04:31 |
helpme | anybody using etherboot? | 04:46 |
Ahmuck-Jr | can user and groups be managed via a thin terminal? | 04:48 |
helpme | can | 04:55 |
Ahmuck-Jr | under "System --> Administration --> Users and Groups" the "Add User" is grayed out. I'm confused | 04:59 |
Ahmuck-Jr | www.adobe is causing a hard lockup of the client. requires a reboot. | 06:05 |
Net_ | Did you have a meeting on Wednesday? | 10:55 |
mssmss | hi there | 13:23 |
mssmss | I can't seem to get more than 2 thin clients boot at once on 8.04.01. looks like dhcp is crawling | 13:25 |
mssmss | looks like other people had the same problem | 13:27 |
mssmss | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/edubuntu-devel/2008-September/002649.html | 13:27 |
mssmss | but could not find any solution ... | 13:27 |
mssmss | anyone know about this ? | 13:27 |
mssmss | I can get multiple clients to work if I turn on one, wait until it is completely booted, then turn on the next one... | 13:29 |
mssmss | logs show dhcp DISCOVER/OFFER messaged long after the client has booted, coming in at 15 s intervals | 13:29 |
mssmss | anyone here ? | 13:31 |
mssmss | anyone familiar with ltsp edubuntu 8.04.1 ? | 13:47 |
nubae | familiar, yes, but your problem doesn't sound familiar | 13:55 |
nubae | mssmss: do you have remote logging enabled? | 13:58 |
mssmss | you mean for the log files ? | 14:06 |
nubae | yes | 14:06 |
mssmss | not sure .. did not touch a thing on the server .... standard installation 8.04.1 of Edubuntu with only network config done ...\ | 14:07 |
nubae | then it should be ok... did u try upgrading to the latest sets of packages | 14:08 |
mssmss | other people have seen the same issues with dhcp ...link I posted above | 14:08 |
nubae | enabling hardy-updates | 14:08 |
mssmss | no.....don't have internet in the location yet .. installed from a CD ..am in India ...but the school is in a rural area with scant internet connectivity | 14:09 |
nubae | hmmm, I would advise ordering the intrepid ibex CD | 14:10 |
nubae | hardy is known to have some issues, and without updates, it could be anything... | 14:10 |
mssmss | but does it not have a shorter support cycle ? also is it an upgrade from Hardy or should I do a completely new install ? | 14:10 |
nubae | u can upgrade I believe... it does have a shorter support cycle, but if you cannot do upgrades from the internet, I dont think you have to worry about that ;-) | 14:12 |
nubae | anyway intrepid is supported for 18 months | 14:12 |
mssmss | :-) | 14:14 |
mssmss | hopefully it's only a short term issue ...hoping to see some connectivity within the next six months | 14:14 |
Ahmuck | good morning. i'm looking for "boot rom?". is anyone familiar with this method? | 14:41 |
Ahmuck | i understand i can install a chip on the nic. does the chip have boot rom already on it or does one flash the nic to get the boot rom there? | 14:41 |
sbalneav | Morning all | 17:04 |
Ahmuck | good morning | 18:29 |
sbalneav | Morning | 18:51 |
Ahmuck | nubae: on a fat client setup does one need the same amount of memory on the server? processing power? or is that all offloaded to the client? | 22:30 |
Ahmuck | i'm getting ready to ditch the server idea if i can offload to 1Ghz clients | 22:35 |
Ahmuck | and make them fat clients. the 1Ghz clients will only cost me 50.00/machine | 22:35 |
