| cyclops | ogra, hi. thanks again for help. I rebuilt the patch-kernel and made some config changes & cluster nodes now boot up. Have 2 as test units. | 14:36 |
| cyclops | diego@jessica:~$ sudo krgadm nodes | 14:36 |

| whatch | I installed ubuntu 8.10 on a dell optiplex desktop, and added the education software to make it edubuntu. It is serving thin clients via xdmcp. Tux paint is in the education menu but when you select it nothing happens. I have tried reinstalling from synaptic but with no luck. | 14:36 |
| whatch | suggestions to remedy appreciated | 14:37 |
| Ahmuck | whatch: ubuntu 8.10 or edubuntu? | 14:43 |
| Ahmuck | oh, nm | 14:43 |
| Ahmuck | does tux paint work from the server? | 14:43 |
| whatch | I initially installed ubuntu 8.10, but have since added the educational software from an additional cd I downloaded. | 14:44 |
| whatch | yes, it works on the server directly | 14:44 |
| whatch | all other applications seem to work | 14:49 |
| stgraber | whatch: tuxpaint won't work without sound | 15:07 |
| whatch | ahhh | 15:10 |
| whatch | no way to disable sound? | 15:10 |
| whatch | thanks. diable sound in tuxpaint.conf fixed problem | 15:21 |
| Ahmuck | stgraber: why ? | 15:38 |
| Ahmuck | that's odd | 15:38 |
| stgraber | Ahmuck: something buggy with SDL IIRC | 15:41 |
| Ahmuck | SDL again | 15:41 |
| Ahmuck | is SDL going to get fixed? | 15:41 |
| cyclops | hi all , would it be possible to have a swap file inside a chroot directory available to clients booting via tftp? | 18:41 |
| alkisg | cyclops: is there a problem with the nbd swapping method? | 18:42 |
| cyclops | alkisg, I am running a cluster via tftp boot. nodes are showing up , but with live ram memory. I could use a swap file if it were doable. | 18:46 |
| alkisg | cyclops: isn't your chroot transferred to the clients as an nbd image? | 18:50 |
| cyclops | yes. | 18:51 |
| alkisg | So, a swap file would use tempfs and nbd. | 18:52 |
| alkisg | Why not use the nbd swap deamon that is already installed with ltsp? | 18:52 |
| cyclops | maybe i didn't create it when installing ubuntu in chroot /nfsroot | 18:52 |
| alkisg | cyclops: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LtsConf#USE_NBD_SWAP | 18:53 |
| cyclops | I didn't install ltsp, went straight to config cluster for nodes. | 18:53 |
| alkisg | It's just an entry in lts.conf... | 18:53 |
| alkisg | Ah, so you would just use the same service | 18:54 |
| alkisg | *could | 18:54 |
| cyclops | I will look into the ltsp swap , thanks | 18:54 |
| alkisg | See also this: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/SwapNbd | 18:55 |
| alkisg | It looks ancient, but maybe it'll give you the necessary steps | 18:55 |
| cyclops | am reading it now. It might do the job. thanks | 18:57 |
