[17:43] <zoobab_> hi
[17:43] <zoobab_> where can I report a bug?
[17:44] <zoobab_> the live LTSP feature does not work fine:

[17:47] <highvoltage> hi zoobab_
[17:48] <highvoltage> do you have another dhcp server running?
[17:48] <highvoltage> you got boot server ip: 192.168.0.1, but iirc ltsp live uses 192.168.0.254
[17:52] <highvoltage> an you'd also get a prompt that says "Starting Edubuntu Live LTSP... Press F8 for boot menu.", so I'm pretty sure you got a dhcp response elsewhere than a live ltsp system
[18:08] <zoobab_> I did an ifconfig by hand because the server did not had any IP
[18:08] <zoobab_> trying again with 0.254
[18:17] <highvoltage> you should restart the dhcp server too if you change the ip address (probably a good idea to just run ltsp-live again, that should do it too)
[18:18] <highvoltage> there's a bug we didn't get to fix yet that if you start ltsp-live before network manager settles down, then it doesn't get set up properly. that's high on my fix-list for the next cycle
[18:22] <zoobab_> tried with 0.254, same failure
[18:22] <zoobab_> running ltsp-live again
[18:23] <zoobab_> have you tried tcos?
[18:23] <zoobab_> I am on their mailinglist, but it is very spanish centric
[18:26] <zoobab_> ah works now
[18:30] <highvoltage> what's tcos?
[18:30] <zoobab_> another ltsp solution
[18:30] <highvoltage> (I guess not The Canadian Orthoptic Society)
[18:31] <highvoltage> ah got it
[18:32] <zoobab_> what is the default login?
[18:32] <highvoltage> ah seems similar to ltsp 4
[18:32] <zoobab_> I would like to shutdown this noisy harddisk with hdparm
[18:32] <highvoltage> for ltsp live you should just be able to click on the guest login button
[18:32] <highvoltage> (bbl)
[18:33] <zoobab_> I have 4 laptops, 2 of them do not have onboard ethernet, only via a pcmcia card
[18:33] <zoobab_> any idea how to make a liveCD out for a client?
[18:33] <zoobab_> yes, but I want to have a console
[18:34] <zoobab_> and when I launch xterm, I am on the server
[18:41] <zoobab_> any idea how to get a local shell on the terminal?
[18:58] <highvoltage> zoobab_: you can put "SCREEN_02=shell" under the default section in the lts.conf file
[18:58] <highvoltage> (can be found at /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386)
[18:59] <highvoltage> gpxe might have pcmcia etherbet drivers, I'm not sure but it's worth a try: http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/howtos
[19:00] <zoobab_> I was thinking about using some kexec trick
[19:26] <zoobab_> how do I add hdparm to the image that is booted by the thinclient?
[19:27] <highvoltage> you can chroot into /opt/ltsp/i386 and apt-get install it in there
[19:27] <highvoltage> (you can't do that on ltsp live though)
[19:38] <zoobab_> that's what I am using at the moment :)
[19:43] <zoobab_> I have the possibility to boot on an ISO file
[19:44] <zoobab_> is there any iso I could create for a client that cannot do PXE?
[19:44] <highvoltage> ltsp live is useful for some demoing but unfortunately it's not as flexible as the installed version
[19:44] <highvoltage> hmm? that cannot do pxe?
[19:44] <zoobab_> yes
[19:45] <zoobab_> but has a pcmcia ethernet card
[19:45] <zoobab_> or a wifi card
[19:45] <zoobab_> I was thinking about modifying kexec-loader distrib
[19:45] <zoobab_> and add some iwconfig/wicd-curses
[19:45] <highvoltage> you could do that, but trying to pxe from an iso will be easiest: http://rom-o-matic.net/gpxe/gpxe-1.0.0/contrib/rom-o-matic/
[19:46] <zoobab_> so that at least a kexec enabled kernel can load something else
[19:47] <zoobab_> gpxe does not has support for pcmcia AFAIK
[21:37] <zoobab_> I am looking at pxe-kexec
[21:45] <zoobab_> there is also http://myllynen.fedorapeople.org/pxkxc-0.1.1.tar.gz
