| oneandoneis2 | Got a request for information: Friend of mine works at a large school that's about to lose its Windows site license. She and a few other teachers are trying to make a case for taking this opportunity to switch to Linux rather than buy a new license. Can anyone recommend any resources she can use to convince the Powers That Be that she's right? | 12:34 |
| erosa | Show them the Andalusian project: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andalusian_ICT_schools_Network and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CGA_%28Advanced_Management_Centre%29 | 12:40 |
| erosa | The info is a bit outdated but still useful | 12:40 |
| oneandoneis2 | Thanks erosa, shall pass that along! | 12:41 |
| dgroos_ | Hello All-- | 14:06 |
| sbalneav | Morning all | 14:07 |
| dgroos_ | Can anyone help me with 2 roadblocks I've encountered? They are | 14:07 |
| dgroos_ | working with Sabayon | 14:07 |
| dgroos_ | and installing Java on localapps. | 14:07 |
| sbalneav | ok, what do you need? | 14:08 |
| dgroos_ | Morning sbalneav. | 14:08 |
| dgroos_ | sbalneav: I'm working to use Sabayon and didn't get too far... | 14:08 |
| sbalneav | Whcih packages are you installing? The ones from my PPA? | 14:09 |
| dgroos_ | I installed it from your PPA, yes. | 14:09 |
| sbalneav | Ok, so, describe the prblem. | 14:09 |
| dgroos_ | and once I installed it I started it from the menu and using the instructions I found on a web page I tried to edit a user profile, but couldn't do so. | 14:10 |
| dgroos_ | There were no demo profiles and... | 14:11 |
| dgroos_ | ...when I added a blank one, then clicked on it and tried to edit it, it froze up and I had to end up force quitting. | 14:12 |
| sbalneav | There are no profiles shipped by default, you need to create one. | 14:12 |
| sbalneav | Where did it freeze up exactly? | 14:12 |
| dgroos_ | Sure. | 14:12 |
| sbalneav | Did the window get open? | 14:12 |
| dgroos_ | Well, I just opened it from the menu right this moment... | 14:13 |
| dgroos_ | I click on the profile i made yesterday, then click on the edit button... | 14:13 |
| dgroos_ | and, this is when it freezes up. I can't click on anything else in the window, The Edit button maintains the coloration as if I were holding down the mouse clicker on it. | 14:14 |
| sbalneav | Anything in the /root/sabayon-... log file? | 14:15 |
| dgroos_ | I'll check... | 14:16 |
| sbalneav | Or in your own .xsession-errors file? | 14:16 |
| dgroos_ | Nothing in the sabayon log file, no, just the creation of the profile yesterday. Ill check for the .xsession-errors... | 14:19 |
| dgroos_ | sbalneav: where do I find this .xsession-errors file? | 14:20 |
| dgroos_ | I don't see it with the log viewer... | 14:21 |
| sbalneav | dgroos_: It should be in your home directory. | 14:22 |
| dgroos_ | right! | 14:23 |
| dgroos_ | " Exception AttributeError: "'Sessions' object has no attribute 'temp_xauth)path'" in <bound method ... should I copy this to a pastebin? | 14:25 |
| sbalneav | That would be good. | 14:28 |
| dgroos_ | sbalneav: here's the whole shebang starting from yesterday when I started working on it: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/206256 | 14:28 |
| sbalneav | dgroos_: did xnest get installed? | 14:30 |
| sbalneav | dpkg -l | grep xnest | 14:30 |
| dgroos_ | hmmm.... the reply I got was: | 14:32 |
| dgroos_ | ii xnest Nested X server 2:1.6.0-Obuntu14 | 14:33 |
| dgroos_ | should I have run that command as root? | 14:33 |
| sbalneav | No, that's fine. | 14:34 |
| sbalneav | Hm. OK, when I get back home, I'll have a look at the log, and try to figure out what went wrong. | 14:34 |
| sbalneav | I'm down in Brazil at the moment. | 14:34 |
| dgroos_ | Thanks very much with your work on bringing Sabayon back to the table! | 14:35 |
| dgroos_ | And thanks for working to help me with that issue... | 14:35 |
| dgroos_ | sbalneav--may I ask, what brings you to Brazil? | 14:36 |
| sbalneav | I'm down here for fisle | 14:38 |
| dgroos_ | hmmm... I get music and builders when I google fisle though my Spanish, which is pretty fluent, doesn't take me that far with Portuguese... | 14:44 |
| sbalneav | dgroos_: http://www.fisl.org.br/10/www/ | 14:52 |
| dgroos_ | sbalneav: cool-- enjoy! | 15:07 |
| sbalneav | !j/win 2 | 15:09 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about j/win 2 | 15:09 |
| dgroos_ | Is there anyone who can help me install java in jaunty localapps? I've read and googled but to no avail. | 15:39 |

| dgroos_ | bump... Is there anyone who can help me install java in jaunty localapps? I've read and googled but to no avail. | 16:26 |
| dgroos_ | Hi--I can't get iTALC master to see iTALC clients. | 23:50 |
| dgroos_ | I followed the directions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/iTalc but didn't work | 23:50 |
| dgroos_ | I know they were for hardy and I'm using jaunty, but didn't see others. | 23:50 |
| dgroos_ | Can anyone help? | 23:50 |
| Lns | dgroos_, sorry..I've tried iTalc before too with minimal success...did get it working once, but it was pretty unstable (for me, anyway..i'm sure others have had better luck) | 23:52 |
| dgroos_ | Lns: thanks--what version of Edubuntu? I had some luck with it on hardy. | 23:53 |
| Lns | dgroos_, I'm still on Hardy | 23:53 |
| dgroos_ | Lns: right. | 23:53 |
| Lns | dgroos_, just FYI, hopefully this project (that I'm helping sponsor) will hopefully provide at least some of the functionality that iTalc claims - http://logicalnetworking.net/wiki/ | 23:54 |
| dgroos_ | Lns: ? cool! I'll check it out... | 23:54 |
| dgroos_ | I had seen this (TCM NG) and wondered about it... | 23:57 |
| dgroos_ | Does it have a different approach from iTALC? | 23:58 |
