| dgroos | normal = desktop user and admin user? | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| dgroos | Ok--thanks again! | 00:02 |
| Svenstaro | There is no admin user. | 00:02 |
| Svenstaro | On the desktop, that is, | 00:02 |
| dgroos | I didn't know that! interesting. | 00:03 |
| dgroos | Good afternoon All, | 23:09 |
| Svenstaro | Sup | 23:10 |
| dgroos | a bit of a reinstall... | 23:11 |
| dgroos | how bout you? | 23:11 |
| Svenstaro | Trying to get some permissions in Edubuntu but people don't seem to like the mailing list. | 23:12 |
| dgroos | 'don't like the mailing list'? | 23:13 |
| Svenstaro | So far I haven't got one person in charge to answer it. | 23:13 |
| dgroos | patience/persistance :-) | 23:14 |
| dgroos | Anyone have an idea about this update message: "Not all updates can be installed" it says that about the "ltsp-server-standalone" package, I think from stgraber's launchpad page which I added to my software sources. | 23:15 |
| dgroos | Yeah, had to do a complete reinstall. | 23:15 |
| Svenstaro | Be more verbose. | 23:15 |
| dgroos | OK--I've reinstalled Ubuntu. I've added stgraber's to my sources: https://launchpad.net/~stgraber/+archive/ppa. This is a fix for java and more in ltsp. | 23:18 |
| dgroos | So, I went to update manager and it listed the package, "ltsp-server-standalone" but was grayed out, and gave a dialog box that said: "Not all updates can be installed"... | 23:20 |
| dgroos | ..."Run a partial upgrade, to install as many updates as possible. This can be caused by: | 23:20 |
| dgroos | --a previous upgrade which didn't complete... | 23:20 |
| dgroos | --problemms with some of the installed software... | 23:21 |
| dgroos | Unofficial softare packages not provided by Ubuntu... | 23:21 |
| Svenstaro | The problem is that the dependecies of the individual packages aren't satisfied | 23:21 |
| dgroos | Normal changes of a pre-release version of Ubuntu. | 23:21 |
| dgroos | then lists the choice of responses as: "Partial Upgrade" and "Close". | 23:22 |
| Svenstaro | Why aren't those packages in the PPA in upstream? | 23:22 |
| Svenstaro | Have you contacted stgraber about it? | 23:22 |
| dgroos | Svenstaro: I'll do that--wasn't sure what the message might mean... | 23:23 |
| dgroos | Thanks! | 23:23 |
| Svenstaro | He might know more about the dependencies. LTSP is quite a large package. | 23:23 |
| Svenstaro | Wait, those are for karmic anyway. | 23:24 |
| stgraber | dgroos: did you put the ppa line for the same version of Ubuntu you're using ? | 23:24 |
| Svenstaro | you aren't installing karmic are you? | 23:24 |
| dgroos | stgraber: hi! Yes I did, I'll double check... | 23:24 |
| Svenstaro | stgraber, why aren't your changes in upstream? :( | 23:25 |
| stgraber | Svenstaro: they are | 23:25 |
| Svenstaro | Or are they and you created backports? | 23:25 |
| Svenstaro | Ah I see. | 23:25 |
| stgraber | Svenstaro: I always do the changes upstream, then backport | 23:25 |
| stgraber | (mainly because I'm upstream :)) | 23:25 |
| Svenstaro | Of course. Well I don't care for backports on a rolling distro :P | 23:25 |
| alkisg | stgraber: got it working *automatically* with 2 or more NICs :) Also ipappend 1/2/3 and static IPs are supported. A little more debugging and I'll send it to you tomorrow. | 23:26 |
| dgroos | stgraber: yes they are set correctly for Jaunty. | 23:26 |
| alkisg | stgraber: there's a hardcoded "DEVICE=eth0" in local-top/nbd, could that be removed? | 23:27 |
| stgraber | alkisg: probably yeah | 23:28 |
| dgroos | Svenstaro: and yes, I'm not installing Karmic :) | 23:28 |
| stgraber | dgroos: what happens if you do: sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone | 23:28 |
| stgraber | it should give you a more useful error message | 23:29 |
| alkisg | stgraber: Good! G'night all... | 23:29 |
| stgraber | alkisg: good night | 23:30 |
| dgroos | stgraber: I did it and it said... the following extra packages will be installed: ldm-server... | 23:31 |
| dgroos | the following packages will be removed: ldminfod... | 23:32 |
| dgroos | the following NEW packages will be installed: ldm-server | 23:32 |
| dgroos | the following packages will be upgraded: ltsp-server-standalone... | 23:33 |
| dgroos | stgraber: should I continue Y/n ? | 23:33 |
| stgraber | ok, so there's actually no error :) | 23:34 |
| stgraber | it's just that the graphic tool won't let you install a new package | 23:34 |
| dgroos | cool... I'll accept... | 23:34 |
| stgraber | you should just do the dist-upgrade from the console with: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 23:34 |
| stgraber | and it'll work just fine | 23:34 |
| stgraber | one of the things I did in karmic is some packages splitting so upgrading from jaunty to karmic's backport will require you to install a few new packages | 23:35 |
| dgroos | Don't plan on doing the karmic thing--I think I'll upgrade each summer when I have time to make sure things work--if something happened to the server in the middle of the year in the October release time, I'd be cooked if I couldn't fix it. But that's what I'm thinking now. | 23:37 |
| Svenstaro | dgroos, hopefully NEXT summer will be a much better time to install Eduubntu | 23:37 |
| dgroos | And I hope to be involved in this ongoing improvement :) | 23:38 |
| dgroos | Thanks Svenstaro and stgraber--Now time for some July 4th Partying! | 23:38 |
| Svenstaro | Why what's up today? | 23:39 |
| stgraber | dgroos: enjoy you July 4th (hope it's not too rainy where you're :)) | 23:47 |
| stgraber | Svenstaro: Independence Day | 23:48 |
