| jbicha | highvoltage: congrats on taking over gnome-panel :) | 15:54 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | what desktop do you normally use? | 15:55 |
| highvoltage | jbicha: gnome fallback session | 16:24 |
| Nadeem | Hi | 17:27 |
| designbybeck__ | Ok now on to some other questions! Edubuntu is to big to run on some of the older machines I've worked with for the public. I've used Qimo and/or just LinuxMint XCFE for light installs | 17:28 |
| designbybeck__ | any straight up Edubuntu package for Light / Old machines? | 17:28 |
| stgraber | not really, the lightest we ship with is gnome-fallback and we don't have strong plans to ship another desktop environment just yet as we're trying to reduce our install media size | 17:29 |
| Nadeem | I have only tried LTSP-Live on system that have one NICs, the dialog says ok. Then Inetwork boot other system, the system boots up fine, then I enter a username, it lands on a screen with just the wallpaper | 17:29 |
| stgraber | however it's easy to either install the Edubuntu packages on top of lubuntu/xubuntu or to install another desktop environment on top of Edubuntu | 17:29 |
| Nadeem | designbybeck__: Yeah, just install xubuntu-desktop or lubuntu-desktop | 17:30 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: what version of Edubuntu was that? | 17:30 |
| Nadeem | 12.04 Sir | 17:30 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: was that the 12.04 release media or 12.04.1? | 17:30 |
| designbybeck__ | i haven't been a fan of xubuntu, it seems lacking and very stock. I would have hoped for LinuxMint XCFE style | 17:30 |
| stgraber | we had a bug that sounds like what you're describing but I believe it's been worked around in 12.04.1 | 17:30 |
| designbybeck__ | even thought overall I'm not a fan of LinuxMint | 17:31 |
| Nadeem | stgraber: I am using the 12.04.1 ISO only | 17:31 |
| Nadeem | designbybeck__: Bro, it will give you a Xfce desktop | 17:31 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: hmm, ok. Next time you try, on the login screen, try to explicitly choose the Unity 2D session or the gnome fallback session. My guess is that LTSP is trying to open a 3D session on that machine and failing badly at it. | 17:31 |
| Nadeem | stgraber: tried that | 17:32 |
| designbybeck__ | yes Nadeem just the LM XCFE is pretty polished I feel. Xubuntu just doesn't seem polished, just like they left it hangin' | 17:32 |
| Nadeem | With gnome fallback | 17:32 |
| designbybeck__ | I haven't tired gnome fallback in awhile though so maybe I should give that a go | 17:32 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: hmm, that's odd... so it's not that weird gnome-session bug then. Any chance you can try 12.10 to see if that somehow got resolved in there? | 17:33 |
| Nadeem | stgraber: I will get the 13.04 alpha build then | 17:33 |
| Nadeem | the dload are big and I am from India | 17:34 |
| Nadeem | get 50 kbps here :D | 17:34 |
| Nadeem | that way I can try the latest stuff in the arsenal | 17:34 |
| Nadeem | stgraber: About that 2 nics stuff, is it possible to get LTSP(installed) working with 1 nic | 17:35 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: it's if that network is completely isolated. If it's the same network you use to access internet, then no, ltsp live won't work with that. | 17:40 |
| stgraber | Nadeem: we'll get support for single NIC LTSP server when in an Edubuntu server domain though but that's a pretty different use case and won't work from the live media | 17:40 |
| Nadeem | stgraber: Thanks brother, then that is the reason why it isn't working. | 17:41 |
| Nadeem | I will taking your leave now(late here). Thanks once again stgraber and highvoltage. | 17:47 |
