=== nubae1 is now known as Nubae [13:27] hi everyone [17:10] how is edubuntu or ltsp coming in setting defaults for desktops. ie screen resolution, firefox pref, etc. [17:12] not sure what you mean Ahmuck [17:17] not having the time, i have not set down and went through the docs to locate setting the min resolution for the thin clients. as a result, the thin client is opening up at the highest resolution of the video card which nobody can read [17:18] so i have to go in and set each client when someone logs in [17:18] but a gui to do a system wide configuration would be nice [17:18] and turning off notices to the clients would be nice as well. print notices, update notices, etc. [17:18] well with ltsp u can set it in lts.conf [17:18] just set [default] to the desired res [17:42] Nubae: would you recommend cedega for windows programs? [17:43] no, crossover [17:43] cedega is for games [18:24] hi Lns [18:24] hey Nubae [19:23] hi everyone, i planning to use xfce as window manager with ltsp on edubuntu, since we are implementing the ltsp solution in a big school, is this a good and stable choice ? [19:24] the reason not to use gnome is because you can lock down xfce much easier, since sabayon for gnome is not working out , or are there any other options to lock down the gnome desktop on a user base ? [19:29] test [20:00] is this a ubuntu forum? [20:01] anybody home? [20:01] !ask [20:01] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [20:01] Guest16709: this is an edubuntu channel [20:03] would you happen to know how to install a software I downloaded off the internet? there is no read me [20:47] hi everyone little question, i want to use AWN to show on the desktop with a specific set of application launchers for a group teachers that logs in to ltsp. Is this possible ? [21:01] Guest60212: i dunno about awn but you might want to look at edubuntu-menus [21:05] tx for the advice [21:05] is it stable enough to use in produktion ? [21:06] and can i use with witch XFCE as desktop instead of gnome [21:07] Guest60212: afaik it utilizes xdg so it should be cross-wm [21:08] ok nice, iam gonna check it out, i see here also it will be include in 9.04 :) [21:08] we are testing with XFCE because you can lock down the desktop very easy, shame that sabayon isn't working properly :( [21:09] Guest60212: fairly easy to do w/gconf in gnome [21:10] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/GnomeOptimize [21:11] yes saw that also [21:11] but we are dealing with around 1000 students [21:11] different ages different groups [21:12] and they are smart kids who search for an entry in sometimes [21:12] so we have to be sure their desktop is totaly secured and locked [21:22] mmm gconf is very powerfull [21:22] we are gonna look into that all so, tx for the advice ! [21:27] Guest60212: np.. i've found it's fairly easy to lock down gnome with that info and a few other non-wm specific things (some also in the wiki) [21:28] s/wm/de === Guest60212 is now known as yoshi_ki === jussi01 is now known as android === yoshi is now known as Guest9270 === yoshi is now known as Guest62132
