[12:13] Hi [12:13] I upgraded from 8.04LTS to 10.04 LTS and clients would not connect anymore .. [12:16] On ltsp-build-client --arch i386, I am getting the error : [12:16] error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally [12:16] what am I doing wrong ? [12:27] Hi === andrewsinclair is now known as andrewsinclair-l [19:21] dinda: are you going to be at UDS at all? [19:23] mhall119: it's looking doubtful [19:23] mhall119: just listening on the plenaries right now [19:24] michelle says :( [19:24] do you have anything prepared for your server in a box session? [19:28] mhall119: will try to participate remotely - that is a general requirements discussion, to see what services would make sense for that product [19:29] ok [19:29] if you're not there, I'll try to keep it going [19:30] mhall119: I can't believe neither jonathan or I could be there! :( [19:30] yeah, it's really a shame [19:48] dinda: we've been working quite a bit on the user management and authentication side of what is listed in the "School Server in a Box" blueprint [19:50] vmlintu: wonderful [19:50] The goal was to have it all public by now, but production setup took longer than expected. The user management side is available here, though: http://github.com/opinsys/puavo-users [19:51] vmlintu: I was trying to find more info on what OLPC has in their School server stack [19:51] We are also LDAP+kerberos setup tools here: http://github.com/opinsys/puavo-tools [19:51] Device management will be there too really soon [19:52] "LDAP, samba and kerberos" awesome, all three and some of the most asked for [19:52] dinda: what kind of setup does OLPC have? [19:53] vmlintu: I didn't really find any specs at all, they list it on their wiki but that's about it [19:55] dinda: Puavo is now in production use and it seems to work nicely in our environments. We have ltsp thin clients and fat clients + laptops + windows machines using the same setup. It's all kerberized too.. [20:01] We'll be next adding web authentication to the stack next, so after that it should be able to support most of the items listed in the blueprint [20:02] dinda: are you aiming the blueprint to be more of a school management system or a user management system? [20:04] vmlintu: both at the moment but more of an emphasis on schools. . .it would be ideal to have a $300- $400 device that could ship as a plug-n-play solution for small schools [20:04] vmlintu: and those with little or no bandwidth [20:05] dinda: the box would be a separate box with no other functions in it? [20:06] vmlintu: at this stage, I see it as a stand alone box [20:06] vmlintu: but that's what the blueprint is for to discuss all the possibilities [20:15] dinda: the concept is certainly something I've never thought myself - we are ourselves relying on always-on good connections everywhere [20:16] vmlintu: :) yes but the reality is that the majority of the world is still very bandwidth poor and schools even moreso [20:16] vmlintu: you should have heard the flak we got for removing the modem dial-up software in recent releases [20:18] dinda: scary.. I cannot remember last time I saw a modem.. [20:20] dinda: Puavo should run fine in a stand-alone box too, just have never tried it like that. [20:21] I really need to find time to cleanup the code and get the website up for it.. [20:49] hey dinda, long time no talk! [20:50] dinda: my US visa got approved today, and I should get it tomorrow, I'm still undecided whether it's worth while going over for 2 days [20:50] dinda: but the LTSP BTS also starts on Friday and mgariepy would drive for 8 hours alone if I didn't leave on Thursday so I decidede to just do that [21:09] highvoltage: big plans for BTS? [21:37] highvoltage: congrats! I'm still uncertain - getting very tempted to hop on a plane wednesday night for last 2 days as well [22:02] vmlintu: nothing earth-shaking :) [22:07] highvoltage: who else from Revolution Linux is there?
