[16:05] <highvoltage> morning sbalneav, charlie-tca and mhall119!
[19:23] <djs> I was reading http://fsmsh.com/3465 and it says "big Edubuntu deployments are based on X’s network transparency." What does that mean? Where can I find information on where Edubuntu has been officially deployed?
[19:24] <djs> It says deployments based on X's network transparency; from what I understand 'network transparency' is X.org server's ability to display the output on a separate monitor than where the server is running -- or something like that
[19:24] <djs> What are they doing with Edubuntu that requires that? Sounds cool and I'd like to read about it.
[19:25] <cprofitt> the issue for Edubuntu is likely LTSP
[19:25] <cprofitt> and iTalc
[19:25] <cprofitt> djs: the LTSP is a terminal server -- one 'powerful' computer can serve up many sessions to less powerful or even terminal boxes
[19:26] <cprofitt> iTalc may also require X
[19:26] <cprofitt> and that works in a normal lab environment and allows control of the workstations
[19:26] <djs> Does the powerful computer run multiple instances of X server? One one each session that's logged in?
[19:27] <cprofitt> no, I would not even think it has to run X server
[19:27] <cprofitt> in LTSP
[19:27] <cprofitt> each client needs to
[19:28] <cprofitt> the server just has to be able to process the applications -- which due to dependencies might require X libs on the server
[19:28] <cprofitt> http://www.ltsp.org/
[19:28] <djs> Another good link, thanks!
[19:29] <cprofitt> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP
[19:29] <cprofitt> that is the Ubuntu specific information
[19:29] <djs> Dense (:
