[03:02] hey JasonO [03:12] Hi highvoltage [17:38] hi all [17:39] I have edubuntu working, ie i am able to boot a "thin client" remotely, however the widescreen monitor doesnt display a larger resolution than 1024x768, any idea on how to get the bst resolution? [17:39] bst* [18:05] dyllan: do you know how much display memory the graphics card has assigned? [18:05] dyllan: do you know what chipset it uses? [18:13] highvoltage, it uses an Intel chipset 945 [18:14] not sure how much memory it has assigned, would i check the BIOS for that? [18:14] dyllan: yep [18:14] dyllan: if you only have 1MB assigned you won't be able to go higher than 1024x768 [18:14] broken cable can also cause problem with resolution. [18:15] highvoltage, ok ill check the BIOS - ty [18:15] mgariepy, i tried different monitors + cables, but thanks for the suggestion! [18:15] ok [18:15] np [18:18] just fyi, checking the Xorg log file my card is definitely detected correctly, however Modeling doesnt have a resolution larger than 1024x768 [18:20] BIOS Settings: [18:21] On-Chip Frame Buffer Size [ 8MB ] <-- that's the largest, other option is [ 1MB ] [18:21] DVMT Mode [ DVMT ] <-- other options are FIXED or BOTH, i chose BOTH for now [18:22] DVMT/FIXED Memory Size [128MB ] <-- other option is [ 224MB ] change to that. [18:23] I should probably also mention that the cable connection the monitor to the thin client is a VGA cable with a converter on the thin client to DVI because the thin client only has a DVI port. [18:23] not sure if that would make a diff. [18:25] Unfortunately no change, going to try and find a DVI cable so I can take the DVI converter out of the equation. [18:30] That did it! [18:31] Using a straight DVI cable solved the problem, mgariepy you were on the right track ;-) [18:31] Thanks for being a sound board all. [18:33] yay [18:45] :) [19:43] dyllan: did you solve your resolution problem? [19:43] Too late :) [20:24] it's been quite quiet lately.. [20:56] calm before the storm [20:56] when the archive is frozen before release [20:56] but I agree we could do with more energy and buzz here [21:52] are there plans yet for the next cycle? [22:05] I could really try to do something, but somehow I always miss the real action.. [22:31] hello [22:31] I need help setting LTSP on edubuntu for the first time. A tut would be great [22:33] This is a working fresh install of edubuntu following instuctions on the website
