[02:01] <chomwitt> hi.
[02:02] <chomwitt> how can i set in a school the teachers computer to ban ip addresses and control internet access?
[02:30] <LaserJock> evening all
[03:30] <MikeAlexi> !rules
[03:40] <chomwitt> join #gambas
[04:06] <MikeAlexi> Does anyone know if i can make an iso image on a flash drive to be bootable?
[04:08] <LaserJock> sure
[04:09] <LaserJock> MikeAlexi: if you're running a recent Ubuntu (9.04 or later I think) you can use USB Startup Disk Creator
[04:10] <LaserJock> UNetBootin is also a good tool. It's a bit more generic
[04:11] <MikeAlexi> thank you
[04:38] <timClicks> to try edubuntu from a vanilla ubuntu install - is it simply a matter of running "sudo apt-get install edubuntu"?
[04:38] <timClicks> e.g. is edubuntu simply a set of applications in the ubuntu repo?
[04:39] <LaserJock> timClicks: well, yes and no
[04:40] <LaserJock> timClicks: if you install edubuntu-desktop you get the educational applications, artwork, etc.
[04:40] <timClicks> LaserJock: but the teachers have their own version?
[04:40] <LaserJock> timClicks: what do you mean?
[04:41] <timClicks> LaserJock: Oh, I just read that it was easy teachers to get going
[04:41] <timClicks> LaserJock: I figured they would have a server-like install
[04:42] <LaserJock> timClicks: oh, you might be talking about LTSP
[04:42] <timClicks> LaserJock: that would allow them to control the thinner clients
[04:42] <LaserJock> timClicks: iTalic is a program to manage the thin clients
[14:28] <LaserJock> morning all
[14:29] <alkisg> Hi LaserJock
[21:48] <LaserJock> anybody around?
[22:12] <AlexisMike> im still tring to set ubantu up i burned a cd-r and a cd-rw the only ones i had left and i boot up to them and they say I/o error so maby they have little scratches so im gonna go get some more disks
[22:16] <alkisg> LaserJock: how's it going?
[22:16] <LaserJock> alkisg: alright, I'm at the Ubuntu Global Jam at MIT
[22:16] <alkisg> Wow, nice :)
[22:16] <LaserJock> I was looking for somebody with an LTSP install
[22:16] <alkisg> I got many of those here :)
[22:17] <LaserJock> I wonder what grep usplash /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/init.d/ltsp-client gives
[22:18] <alkisg> ltsp-client doesn't exist, ltsp-client-setup and/or ltsp-client core are there
[22:18] <alkisg> http://paste.ubuntu.com/284929/
[22:18] <LaserJock> hmm
[22:20] <LaserJock> alkisg: I think that's good enough for me to close this bug
[22:22] <LaserJock> I've squashed about 10 bugs yesterday and today so far
[22:23] <alkisg> Are those on launchpad? Or are they "new" bugs that people there are reporting?
[22:23] <LaserJock> Launchpad
[22:24] <alkisg> Good!
[22:24] <LaserJock> we're at 286 bugs
[22:24] <LaserJock> down from 299
[22:26] <alkisg> There are also about 10 bugs in LTSP in an "incomplete" state that are going to be closed after some time (they're actually abandoned)
[22:27] <LaserJock> right
[22:44] <alkisg> LaserJock: about this one: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/268125
[22:44] <alkisg> It's an italc bug, I send a patch to stgraber some days ago
[22:45] <LaserJock> alkisg: is there already a bug report about it?
[22:45] <alkisg> So I'm thinking to 1) confirm it 2) delete it from ltsp and 3) mark it as an italc bug
[22:45] <alkisg> Hmmm maybe, let me look at the italc bug page...
[22:47] <alkisg> LaserJock: no, I don't see it.
[22:49] <LaserJock> alkisg: ok, so I'll do 1,2,3 and then I'll let you comment with what the current status is
[22:50] <alkisg> OK, I'll comment and mark it as "fix commited" tomorrow or the day after that, because I think stgraber will have commited the patches by then...
[22:52] <alkisg> LaserJock: I found some duplicates: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/400456
[22:52] <alkisg> and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/400384
