[03:36] <Evilware> Hi you all!
[03:38] <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?
[12:59] <highvoltage> stgraber: I got a bunch of new emails the last week for new images, when should I do iso testing?
[13:38] <stgraber> highvoltage: today's are the first candidates
[13:39] <stgraber> highvoltage: there was a pretty bad unity-5.8 mess yesterday that took the day to fix
[17:20] <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
[17:21] <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
[17:22] <alkisg> uros1: since that's a clonezilla question, why don't you ask in #clonezilla instead?
[17:23] <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
[17:24] <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
[17:25] <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
[17:50] <Evilware> Someone here!! Hello!
[17:51] <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
[17:52] <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?
[17:53] <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
[17:54] <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
[17:55] <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?
[17:56] <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
[17:57] <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
[17:59] <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.
[18:00] <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?
[18:02] <highvoltage> I haven't tried it yet myself. (although I've been meaning to play with it)
[18:03] <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
[18:04] <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
[18:05] <Evilware> It looks promising... ahhh how does youtube play on a thin client with Edubuntu?
[18:05] <Evilware> have you tried that?
[18:07] <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
[19:05] <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?
[19:10] <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)
[19:11] <highvoltage> if it doesn't contain that info, then it's a bug
[19:18] <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> ?
[19:19] <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
[19:20] <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
[19:21] <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
[19:23] <highvoltage> yeah those can't run LTSP
[19:24] <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
[19:26] <Evilware> I will keep reading..thanks man. Take care
