ScorpKinghi everyone. is there a way to change the usplash theme of ltsp clients?13:08
LnsAnybody have a howto/link for getting msttcorefonts/defoma functional in edubuntu/ltsp?19:26
LnsI've installed & followed the directions, and the docs say to add the following lines to your xorg.conf:  FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"19:27
Lns FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID"19:27
LnsNot sure if lts.conf has an option to add these lines in dynamically without having to create a custom xorg.conf for every client on the network19:28
LaserJockLns: have you tried it locally on the server?19:31
LnsLaserJock: nope19:31
Lnsprobably a good place to start, eh? :)19:32
alkisgLns, huh? There's a package for msttcorefonts, you just install it... Am I missing something?19:32
Lnsalkisg: yeah, they don't show up ;)19:32
alkisgEhm... where? E.g. I can see them in xfontsel...19:33
Lnsalkisg: can you give some msttcorefont names for me to check?19:33
LaserJockTimes New Roman19:34
alkisgI'm not sure if all of them are part of msttcorefont, but these are the ms fonts I have: verdanda, webdings, arial, arial black, ...19:34
Lnsthat's in msttcorefonts??19:34
LaserJockLns: yeah19:34
Lnshmm, maybe you're right then. weird.19:34
Lnslemme check a server i know i didn't install it on yet19:34
alkisgLns, the list is in `cat /var/lib/msttcorefonts/ms-fonts` (on a PC where you have installed it)19:37
Lnsah, you're right. It sure doesn't seem like there are many new ones installed though! TNR is definitely not there w/o msttcorefonts. nice. Are there other font packages? I'm getting requests to install more, prettier fonts.19:37
Lnsalkisg: thanks :)19:37
Lnscat /var/lib/msttcorefonts/ms-fonts|wc -l: 60 .. .nice, at least 60 more, it didn't look like that scrolling through them though. I'm just not awake enough yet.19:38
LaserJockLns: you should look into liberation fonts and Dejavu fonts, they're pretty nice19:39
LnsLaserJock: awesome!19:40
