stgraberhttp://www.stgraber.org/download/ubuntu/ltsp/ contain both packages00:03
stgraberI couldn't test the package on a jaunty system but the intrepid backport I made is working fine (and is actually kind-of in production as we needed these features)00:04
LaserJockstgraber: are you going to get that into -updates or -backports?00:09
stgraberLaserJock: well, for now the intrepid one is in my PPA, it won't be uploaded to -updates as it's really hard to cherrypick fixes for ltsp but I'll probably ask for a backport.00:23
LaserJockstgraber: how much is feature addition though?00:23
LaserJockI wonder if it could get squeezed into a SRU00:24
stgraberLaserJock: integrating the whole ltsp-cluster, getting a replacement for configure-x (xorg configuration file generation), adding a xdg menu generator for the localapps, addind xinitrc.d and screen-session.d, moving a good part of the C code to shell when possible (mainly in ldm)00:25
stgraberas I said, not easy to cherry-pick from :)00:25
LaserJockwhat's the reason for C -> shell ?00:26
stgraberand these are really new features, I don't think there is any reported bug on LP fixed by that (I'd need to have one more look)00:26
stgraberbecause starting X from the C code was really weird and making changing the X parameters really hard00:26
LaserJockI see00:27
stgraberwe also moved the session open from the C code to an rc script, so we can easily add a script changing the environment (as we source these and the final (gnome-session/kde/..) has the whole environement set)00:27
stgraberoh, we also added .dmrc support to store the language and session00:27
stgraberadded serial printer support too00:27
LaserJockok, well I know sbalneav was eager to get some Intrepid stuff into Hardy00:28
LaserJockI just wondered how much of this new stuff would be bug fixing00:28
stgraberyeah, hardy is a bit broken00:28
stgraberso intrepid => hardy needs a few SRU, jaunty => intrepid doesn't it's mostly new features00:29
LaserJockright00:30
stgraberLaserJock: ogra_ did the upload00:49
LaserJockstgraber: good, I haven't even got my jaunty chroot made :-)00:52
ogra_who needs a chroot ...00:56
* ogra_ just debsigned 00:56
LaserJockogra_: old habit I guess ;-)00:58
ogra_no need for that for stgraber's ltsp uploads ... just do them :)00:59
ogra_he should do them already, it's just buerocracy thats in the way00:59
stgraberyeah ...00:59
ogra_slacking motu council ...00:59
nubaeLaserJock: should I make the apps page with an app icon?01:01
LaserJocknubae: why not01:02
nubaeyeah did without one and it looks quite silly...01:03
nubaeproblem is not all apps have icons... what do I do for those?01:11
LaserJocknubae: which ones don't?01:12
nubaeweird ones, for example: DDV Sequence Alignment Viewer01:14
nubaemaybe I'm looking in the wrong place... I'm using the net to look for relevant websites01:17
LaserJockwhy the heck is DDV Sequence Alignment Viewer doing on your list?01:18
nubaeI'm using the  the ubuntu-apps edu spreadsheet01:19
LaserJockdon't use that01:19
LaserJockuse the seeds01:19
nubaek01:19
LaserJockonly a handfull of the apps on the list are in Edubuntu01:19
nubaeok? ???01:19
nubaealso.. should I make them clickable install then?01:20
nubaeU did tell me to use the spreadsheet as a base...01:21
LaserJocknot for Hardy and Intrepid01:22
LaserJockfor Hardy and Intrepid we need to list what we *actually* support/ship01:22
LaserJockfor Jaunty we're looking at expanding all that and using these bundles01:22
LaserJock*which* will come from the spreadsheet01:23
nubaeok, so the spreadsheet is Juanty related then?01:23
LaserJockyeah01:23
nubaek, I learn something new... :-)01:24
LaserJockthat's why I said to not worry about the spreadsheet so much01:25
LaserJockbecause it's sort of a different issue than the app lists for Hardy & Intrepid01:25
LaserJockand also why I showed you the seeds :-)01:26
LaserJockso hopefully that will make your life *much* easier ;-)01:26
nubaefor the current distro yes01:26
LaserJocknubae: perhaps though could you make a new column on that spreadsheet that gives which apps you found didn't have an icon?01:30
nubaeok, so I list all, but put a generic edubuntu icon infront of non icon apps?01:33
LaserJocknot on edubuntu.org01:34
LaserJockI just meant in that spreadsheet if you could mark which ones didn't  have an icon01:35
LaserJockit might be something we look at later01:35
nubaejust to clarify I've made a edubuntu page for this... should I make this elsewhere?01:36
Ahmucknubae: i'm getting an error, and wondered if you would know anything about it?01:37
* nubae listens01:39
Ahmuckbrb01:40
LaserJocknubae: I don't think you need it elsewhere01:41
nubae(02:34:53 AM) LaserJock: not on edubuntu.org01:41
Ahmuck-Jrexportfs: /etc/exports:1: syntax error: bad option list01:44
Ahmuck-Jrwhen i try the third line "sudo exportfs -a"01:44
Ahmuck-Jrany clues?01:45
nubaeAhmuck-Jr: be more inclusive please... what are u trying to do?01:46
Ahmuck-Jrsudo apt-get install portmap nfs-kernel-server nfs-common01:46
Ahmuck-Jrecho "/home 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,async)" | sudo tee -a /etc/exports /dev/null01:46
Ahmuck-Jrsudo exportfs -a01:46
Ahmuck-Jrthat01:46
nubaeand what error do u get, abviously u are trying my fatclient script...01:47
LaserJocknubae: I meant to mark down which don't have icons in the spreadsheet01:48
LaserJocknubae: the ones that will go on edubuntu.org should all have icons01:48
Ahmuck-Jrexportfs: /etc/exports:1: syntax error: bad option list - i get this error01:48
nubaeAhmuck-Jr: can u edit that file and tell me whats in it: /etc/exportfs/01:59
Ahmuck-Jrit appears that /etc only has a file named "exports"02:03
Ahmuck-Jrno exportfs directory02:03
nubaeshould be file /etc/exportfs02:05
Ahmuck-Jrexports file has three lines, and the first line had a syntax error02:05
Ahmuck-Jryes, no file exportfs.  is that one you were trying to create via the script ?02:05
nubaeincluding /home/whatever 192.158.0..00/24/2402:05
nubae0.002:06
Ahmuck-Jryes.  did nfs installation on ubuntu 8.10 change the file location?02:06
Ahmuck-Jrer, name?02:06
Ahmuck-Jrbut, yes, /home/whatever is there in exports02:07
Ahmuck-Jrexportfs: /etc/exports [1]: Neither 'subtree_check' or 'no_subtree_check' specified for export "192.168.0.0/24:/home".02:08
Ahmuck-Jr  Assuming default behaviour ('no_subtree_check').02:08
Ahmuck-Jr  NOTE: this default has changed since nfs-utils version 1.0.x - and now this error02:08
nubaetelll me where the exportfs instaled.02:08
Ahmuck-Jri saved exports to exportfs02:08
nubaeno subtree is normal02:08
Ahmuck-Jrk, let me look02:08
Ahmuck-Jrhttp://pastebin.be/1539002:09
nubaeshow me /etc/exportfs02:11
Ahmuck-Jrthere was no exportfs ... i can create one from exports02:11
Ahmuck-Jrlet me do that02:11
Ahmuck-Jrhttp://pastebin.be/1539102:12
nubaethats great except its exports and not as it should be /etc/exportfs/02:14
Ahmuck-Jrso, i'm confused should there have been an exportfs by default on ltsp server?02:16
Ahmuck-Jr /etc/exportfs?02:17
Ahmuck-Jrecho "/home 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,async)" | sudo tee -a /etc/exports /dev/null - should this line say "exportfs" rather than exports ?02:18
nubaenope sorry that is correct02:20
nubaeexports02:20
Ahmuck-Jrso, i'm lost now i guess02:21
Ahmuck-Jri don't understand what is happening or what should be happening02:21
nubaeit should just work...02:22
Ahmuck-Jr"exportfs -a" should just work?02:23
nubaeyes02:23
Ahmuck-Jrhrm.  before i tried your script, i "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade"02:23
Ahmuck-Jrso i'mat the latest update02:23
Ahmuck-Jrwould this be an indication my system was comprimized?02:24
nubaethat should be fine02:25
Ahmuck-Jrwhat should be fine?02:25
Ahmuck-Jroh, nm02:25
nubaeyour systen should not be compromised02:26
Ahmuck-Jri see.  originally i had a syntax error, now it exports and gives me the other error which is ok02:26
Ahmuck-Jrbecause i went and looked at the file and removed the line with the syntax error and saved back.  k, thx nubae i'll go from here02:26
nubaecool02:26
alex_21I am using Edubuntu Server, and I added the line default_server = 127.0.0.1 to the file /etc/pulse/client.conf03:15
alex_21Now what do I do for the changes to take effect?03:16
=== alkisg1 is now known as alkisg
Ahmuck-Jr0 stray cats were added ?!15:40
Ahmuck-Jrodd message15:40
Ahmuck-Jrnubae: is there a way to overwrite entries in /usr/opt/fati386 without having to redo the entire thing?15:42
Ahmuck-Jrsorry, /opt/ltsp/fati38615:44
Ahmuck-Jrnubae: just saw ur artilce on xo.  reading some of your articles, i'm really interested in what your doing with ltsp15:47
Ahmuck-Jrspecifically, it appears that you are making a concentrated effort to ease ltsp for the classroom learning environment15:48
Ahmuck-Jrto run fat clients, do i need to create a "local apps" menu?16:25

nubaeAhmuck-Jr: u can set it to use nfs instead of nbd, and that way u won't have to rebuild the image all the time I suppose19:05
nubaeand localapps is not needed for fat client19:06
Ahmuckkewl, thx19:06
Ahmucki've been trying to get the fatclient installation to work, but it keeps erroring out partway through the install19:06
* Ahmuck needs to wait until it gets to that point again19:06
nubaewhere's it dying?19:06
Ahmucki'll know in about 10min19:10
Ahmuckit's at 76% download right now19:10
Ahmucki'll post to pastbin.be if it does it again.  i deleted the script to make sure i did not install hardy script and am trying again19:11
nubaek I updated it recently... so make sure u are using the latest one from nubae.com19:12
Ahmucki am19:13
Ahmuck-Jrk, it asks to enter main root user, which i assume is the account i created when intalling ubuntu ltsp server.  user119:33
Ahmuck-Jrnubae: http://pastebin.be/1540519:34
nubaeedit the script and remove the part about kde-guidance19:42
nubaein any case, by that time the script should have gone through and done everything, u just have to build the image19:43
Ahmuck-Jrwhat should the script say there.  i just noticed it's at the end19:44
nubaejust take out the if... fi19:45
nubaeso the last 3 lines... but keep the esac at the end19:45
Ahmuck-Jrk.  the last three lines are not needed i guess.  i'm going to post my dhcpd.conf to make sure everything is kosher19:49
Ahmuck-Jrhttp://pastebin.be/1540819:50
Ahmuckhrm, when i reboot the thin client it is still being served the thin client address.  need to reboot the server to enforce ltsp/dhcp addressing?20:06
Ahmucknubae: well, after using the dhcp change, the thin client fails to boot thin or thick20:24
* Ahmuck is going out for sunshine20:28
