| Evilware | Hi you all! | 03:36 |
|---|---|---|
| Evilware | Do u know a site to learn to setup Ltsp? I installed edubuntu and I thought it was in there but thin clients do not see the server. Do I have to install the ltsp server? | 03:38 |
| highvoltage | stgraber: I got a bunch of new emails the last week for new images, when should I do iso testing? | 12:59 |
| stgraber | highvoltage: today's are the first candidates | 13:38 |
| stgraber | highvoltage: there was a pretty bad unity-5.8 mess yesterday that took the day to fix | 13:39 |
| uros1 | Hello, | 17:20 |
| uros1 | I have this eeepc, actualy 1028 of them, | 17:20 |
| uros1 | and must install Edubuntu 10.04 on every single one | 17:20 |
| uros1 | clonezilla is first choice, but when I try to boot | 17:21 |
| uros1 | machine granted me with thiss error | 17:21 |
| uros1 | http://www.sendspace.com/file/8bo1lx | 17:21 |
| uros1 | any idea how to fi this? | 17:21 |
| uros1 | *fix | 17:21 |
| alkisg | uros1: since that's a clonezilla question, why don't you ask in #clonezilla instead? | 17:22 |
| alkisg | You're missing a network card module, ask there on how to include it in the initramfs | 17:23 |
| uros1 | clonezzila working great with older laptops here | 17:23 |
| alkisg | Yes, those have different network cards | 17:23 |
| uros1 | but with this model no. | 17:23 |
| alkisg | Also edubuntu will work fine once you clone it | 17:23 |
| alkisg | It's not an edubuntu problem, it's a clonezilla problem | 17:23 |
| uros1 | I`m shure | 17:23 |
| alkisg | It doesn't contain the network module for your network card in its initramfs | 17:24 |
| uros1 | any way to include them, with custom made edubuntu ? | 17:24 |
| alkisg | To include them in clonezilla? We don't use it, we don't know | 17:24 |
| alkisg | Again, it's not related to edubuntu at all | 17:25 |
| uros1 | ok | 17:25 |
| alkisg | You could be cloning windows and have the same problem... | 17:25 |
| uros1 | lets go to clonezilla room | 17:25 |
| alkisg | It's a problem in clonezilla, ask them | 17:25 |
| uros1 | tnx | 17:25 |
| alkisg | You're welcome | 17:25 |
| Evilware | Someone here!! Hello! | 17:50 |
| highvoltage | stgraber: so is http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/dvd/20120327.1/ ready for testing or should I hold on a bit? | 17:51 |
| stgraber | highvoltage: we're respinning everything | 17:51 |
| highvoltage | stgraber: k | 17:51 |
| highvoltage | stgraber: did we have some kind of release checklist last time or should we put one together? | 17:52 |
| stgraber | highvoltage: new kernel + an LTSp fix | 17:52 |
| highvoltage | ah a new ubuntu kernel I guess | 17:52 |
| stgraber | highvoltage: we had one on pad.ubuntu.com with a bunch of language and install scenario to test | 17:52 |
| highvoltage | (:p) | 17:52 |
| Evilware | Guys, can I ask u something? I installed Edubuntu but I wonder if it come with a Ltsp server already built-in or do I have to install it? | 17:52 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: yep, it gives you the option to install ltsp in the installer | 17:53 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: (at least since the last few versions) | 17:53 |
| Evilware | mm ok | 17:53 |
| Evilware | thanks | 17:53 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: it asks you in this section: http://edubuntu.org/documentation/11.10/installation-guide#Edubuntu_Options_and_Partitioning_ | 17:54 |
| Evilware | Ltsp live was not working ..I gues I did not install it then | 17:54 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: but it's not ticked by default | 17:54 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: ah ltsp live must work without ltsp being installed | 17:54 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: but ltsp live is just available on the live cd, it's not available for installed systems | 17:54 |
| Evilware | ahh , that is why | 17:55 |
| Evilware | I tried it and it worked..but i had issues installing the OS..it got stuck in the middle several times | 17:55 |
| Evilware | using an USB | 17:55 |
| highvoltage | in the middle? | 17:55 |
| Evilware | finally I got it installed but I think I did not check the Ltsp option | 17:56 |
| highvoltage | it usually does sit there a long time, unfortunately there's not much progress indication while it installs the ltsp part, but it will finish | 17:56 |
| Evilware | may be I was not patience enough, but when I did installed it i alwayed showed the ball spinning, but the other times I it did not move at all | 17:57 |
| Evilware | thanks highvoltage! | 17:59 |
| Evilware | I just want to try iTalc on a Ltsp environment | 17:59 |
| highvoltage | ah it should still be spinning though. | 17:59 |
| highvoltage | for the next version of edubuntu we're dropping italc in favour or epoptes: http://www.epoptes.org/ | 18:00 |
| Evilware | is it easy to install? | 18:00 |
| highvoltage | I haven't tried it yet myself. (although I've been meaning to play with it) | 18:02 |
| highvoltage | the author of it (alkisg) usually hangs out here and if you ask a question and hang around, you'll usually get an answer | 18:03 |
| alkisg | Evilware: http://www.epoptes.org/installation | 18:04 |
| alkisg | It's easier to install than italc | 18:04 |
| Evilware | I will do that..thank you guys for your help | 18:04 |
| Evilware | It looks promising... ahhh how does youtube play on a thin client with Edubuntu? | 18:05 |
| Evilware | have you tried that? | 18:05 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: best way to do that is to run your web browser as a local app, that way the video doesn't travel over the network uncompressed | 18:07 |
| Evilware | Highvoltage still there? | 19:05 |
| Evilware | I had to take a class...:P | 19:05 |
| Evilware | do you know a place that explains what a local app is and how to set it up? | 19:05 |
| highvoltage | Evilware: there's an LTSP manual that should contain it at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ltsp/index.php?title=Ltsp_LtspDocumentationUpstream | 19:10 |
| highvoltage | (it's a PDF) | 19:10 |
| highvoltage | if it doesn't contain that info, then it's a bug | 19:11 |
| Evilware | Thanks again, I will look into that .. I found some cheap thin clients that I would like to try with Edubuntu ..$40 each..does not look bad! | 19:18 |
| highvoltage | beware the cheap thin clients! (although it is possible to get lucky) | 19:18 |
| highvoltage | anything that has "via" writen on it anywhere should be avoided | 19:18 |
| Evilware | because of quality or scams | 19:18 |
| Evilware | ? | 19:18 |
| highvoltage | quality | 19:19 |
| Evilware | good to know | 19:19 |
| highvoltage | you get some really crappy ones that might be ok if you only want to run a point of sales system or a security system or something on it | 19:19 |
| highvoltage | but for any actualy use they're pretty much just a waste of money | 19:19 |
| Evilware | they are a copy of Ncomputing divices | 19:19 |
| Evilware | I understand.. | 19:20 |
| highvoltage | ah, it depends then, becuase some of the ncomputing type hardware isn't really thin clients, they're just keyboard/video/mouse duplicators | 19:20 |
| Evilware | let me show you | 19:21 |
| Evilware | http://www.dealextreme.com/p/nc120-uxp-multiuser-100mbps-lan-workstation-terminal-with-kvm-sound-support-windows-linux-28695 | 19:21 |
| highvoltage | yeah those can't run LTSP | 19:23 |
| highvoltage | (or anything else for that matter, except the UXP stuff) | 19:24 |
| Evilware | :( | 19:24 |
| Evilware | so old computers than | 19:24 |
| Evilware | then | 19:24 |
| Evilware | I will keep reading..thanks man. Take care | 19:26 |
