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