[00:38] <Eeyore-Jr> http://pastebin.com/m44377e7c - can anyone tell me why this would not work?
[00:45] <ogra> it would, but only if you force ltsp to use nfs
[00:46] <Ahmuck> http://www.nubae.com/ltsp-linux-terminal-server-project-netbooted-fat-client-for-ubuntu-hardy-and-intrepid - i followed this document
[00:47] <Ahmuck> It's not working for us, and were not sure why
[00:47] <Ahmuck> vanilla server, and followed to the letter document
[01:05] <ogra> well, only nubae can help
[01:05] <ogra> i wrote big parts of ltsp but have no clue at all abotu fatclients
[01:21] <Ahmuck> :( nubae is gone today ...
[01:21] <Ahmuck> i guess i'll have to stick with thin till i can figure out why switching to a fat client dhcpd.conf like he has listed causes no client boots
[02:05] <Ahmuck> i'll be building a ubuntu ibex binary for ltsp on a g3 mac.  i assume there is not one already.
[03:11] <colton_> What are the advantages of edubuntu over the other ubuntu distros?
[03:28] <Ahmuck> edubuntu is educational centered
[03:28] <colton_> educational centered? oh. 'edu' got it. That's interesting.
[11:55] <rat> hello i just instalt ubuntu 8.04 on a old laptop for the kids
[11:56] <rat> not edubuntu just ubuntu becouse i had it lying aroud
[11:57] <rat> around

[12:04] <nubae> rat: just download the edubuntu add-on cd
[12:05] <nubae> edubuntu is no longer a distro, just an add-on cd with the educational apps

[13:43] <smudge> Hi All, I am setting up a schools computer club project in the Caribbean. I want to (obviously) use Edubuntu... Is there are "community" of other people trying something similar housed at Ubuntu? I am looking for shared ideas and hardware best options.
[13:48] <nubae> smudge: how many computers, what specs?
[13:51] <smudge> Hey Nubae. We have 12 computers now which are very old. Will try installation today, but assume that I will fund raise for others from our free software project (www.barnraiser.org). If that works I will aim to expand. I would like to know what we should aim for. Rugged laptops / cheap desktops / thin clients?
[13:53] <smudge> Also, does Edubuntu case study projects? Anything I can read up on?
[15:31] <mavci> hi, i want to install edubuntu with ltsp to be used in a 30 computer network environment. Clients will use Firefox 3, Open Office and Eclipse most of the time. When we try with 8.04, our main problems were slowness because of sshfs and local program running support. Will 8.10 change anything?
[15:38] <Eghie> Eclipse could be the problem of the slowness
[15:38] <Eghie> Hardy has a problems with the speed op JAVA
[15:39] <Eghie> see also: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+bug/277069
[15:39] <ubottu> Ubuntu bug 277069 in libxcb "Java slow on remote X" [Low,New]
[15:46] <sbalneav> sshfs is, by it's nature, a little slow.
[15:46] <sbalneav> We use sshfs as the primary method of getting home dirs simply because it's guarenteed to be secure.
[15:47] <sbalneav> if you're less concerned about security, you could always bodge the localapps script, and mount using nfs, or the like.
[15:51] <ogra> 8.04 didnt use sshfs anywhere
[15:55] <Eghie> cool, I've got a webpage as "background" :)
[15:55] <Eghie> now 1 step away to a webdesktop
