[18:16] <Samper> hey folks...
[18:16] <Samper> I am working with a group that is considering moving some school mahcines over to linux.
[18:17] <Samper> one question was if there is a way to run the following software http://www.jumpstart.com on ubuntu.....
[18:17] <Samper> either nativelyor through something like WINE, Cross over Linux, etc etc....
[18:17] <Samper> also, if there are comprable somparisons in the open source world they can try.
[19:20] <Nubae> Samper: there is a wine apps compatability database somewhere
[19:21] <Nubae> I'd take a look at that and search for the program
[19:25] <Nubae> there is an adventure game called egoboo in Ubuntu which looks similar in style, but its more role playing based
[19:25] <Nubae> there are sure to be some other similar SDL based games
[19:26] <Nubae> but jumpstart seems to work fine under wine
[19:26] <Nubae> http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=6371
[19:26] <Nubae> its at platinum level, which means it will run without any problems
[20:07] <Samper> nubae: great, thanks for the heads up... wine is straight forward enough to use...
[20:07] <Samper> I would love to learn more about the other SDL games... (acronym for?)
[20:09] <Samper> simple direcmedia layer (SDL)?
[20:10] <Samper> ﻿simple directmedia layer (SDL)? (http://www.libsdl.org/)
[20:11] <Samper> dnloading egoboo now.
[20:12] <Samper> can anyone offer up any recomendations for good interactive educational games for gr 2-4?
[20:32] <mattva01> quick question, what is the preferred client management tool for ltsp in jaunty(teachertool,italc?)
[20:36] <alkisg> italc
[20:58] <Samper> looking for sites with good recommendations for effective educational games...
[20:58] <Samper> Linux based of course.
[20:58] <Samper> cheers
[22:44] <Lns> Samper: wanna elaborate a bit? Have you looked at edubuntu.org ? That's kinda what we do... ;)
