| RuralZA | Hi guys, anyone able to shed some light on my earlier problem I posted regarding using Lubuntu as a fat client on Edubuntu and it fails after login? | 14:46 |
|---|---|---|
| highvoltage | hey RuralZA | 15:02 |
| RuralZA | Hey Highvoltage! Good to see your still around. Prefer me to talk in prv? | 15:02 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: have you enabled the root account in the ltsp chroot? | 15:02 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: might help to check if the network connection is indeed lost in the terminal | 15:03 |
| RuralZA | After login in the terminal terminates as well. Just the cursor showning | 15:03 |
| highvoltage | hmm, I'm not 100% sure what the /right/ way would be to fix that, but I'd probably just uninstall network manager (or disable it) in the fat client chroot | 15:04 |
| RuralZA | Did that then ran ltsp-update-image and ssh-key. Same effect | 15:05 |
| * highvoltage creates a lubuntu fat client in VM | 15:06 | |
| RuralZA | Main reason for going through this exercise is that 10 of our new terminals are Nvidia bases and the glx drivers didn't want to play nice with a edubuntu thin client setup | 15:07 |
| RuralZA | Hence the choice to do a fat lubuntu client. Glx drivers installed with, with me now being able to see the login screen. Without the glx drivers the ION machines just display garble | 15:08 |
| * highvoltage hopes this chroot finishes building before the vm runs out of space | 15:21 | |
| RuralZA | Haha | 15:26 |
| RuralZA | Busy building a Xubuntu fat client as well quickly. Have no objections to use Xubuntu if its able to load on the terminal | 15:31 |
| highvoltage | I don't have trusty-security locally so that's taking a bit to download | 15:41 |
| RuralZA | Haha I have nothing locally so it's a download each time | 15:42 |
| RuralZA | Luckily a 10mb line.. so it could have been worse | 15:43 |
| highvoltage | ah you can also pass --keep-packages to ltsp-build-client to keep a copy of the packages | 15:43 |
| RuralZA | Will make a note of that | 15:48 |
| RuralZA | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/1330252 Could be the cause. Going to test it after the Xubuntu client builds | 15:52 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1330252 in ltsp (Ubuntu) "ubuntu 14.04 ltsp-server /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40-ltsp-server DESKTOP_SESSION breaks lubuntu-desktop login" [Undecided,New] | 15:52 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: I did a "rm /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/Xsession.d/40-ltsp-client", then a ltsp-update-image and then lubuntu loaded fine | 16:16 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: so either that script or the lubuntu session needs some update (I can't check now though) | 16:16 |
| RuralZA | Highvoltage: Thats more than what I could have asked for. Busy building it now and this should work fine for now. | 16:21 |
| RuralZA | The help is much appreciated. Just going to test it tonight then will deploy the new terminals at the school tomorrow. | 16:21 |
| highvoltage | cool | 16:22 |
| RuralZA | Highvoltage: Have some craft beers we brewed. Owe you some | 16:24 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: heh thanks, I stopped drinking beer though | 16:26 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: pay back by helping out some other lost souls when they come by in #edubuntu :) | 16:26 |
| RuralZA | Will do! | 16:27 |
| RuralZA | highvoltage: Was the "rm /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/X11/Xsession.d/40-ltsp-client" all you did? Tried it and I'm still getting the same problem | 17:01 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: yep | 17:20 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: well followed by ltsp-update-client of course | 17:20 |
| RuralZA | No heck, just created a new vm, new updated Ubuntu and fresh install of ltsp standalone. Ran build-client lubuntu-desktop, rm 40-ltsp-client updated the image and still the same thing | 18:57 |
| RuralZA | Painful | 18:57 |
| highvoltage | ah that's odd | 19:29 |
| highvoltage | I'm sure I didn't change anything else | 19:29 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: what version of edubuntu/ubuntu? | 19:29 |
| highvoltage | RuralZA: btw did you remember to choose the lubuntu session at ldm? (I assume so, but just checking) | 19:30 |
| RuralZA | ubuntu 14.04 amd64 and also just checked the session and it was set to default. After I changed it to Lubuntu it logged in. Feel like such a clutz for overlooking that | 20:09 |
| RuralZA | Updating /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf now to make lubuntu the default session | 20:10 |
| weller | could anyone help me troubleshoot an edubuntu install? | 20:44 |
| RuralZA | weller: What seems to be the problem? | 20:48 |
| weller | im running a box with an intel core 2 quad 8gb of ram and an nvidia geforce gt120 and everytime i try to install it after i try to partition the drive or erase everything and install i get a window that pops open and it only has questions marks and an okay option i am running a mirrored bios raid but it does see my 1 TB disk | 20:50 |
| RuralZA | And have you tried running it without the raid? | 20:51 |
| weller | i cant turn the raid off the only sata mode available is raid if you disable sata you can disable raid but that is the only way idk if there is a way to run non-raided disks in raid mode? | 20:53 |
| RuralZA | There should be a few options available for running your disks in. If the bios is set to raid you wont be able to use the disks without first creating arrays for them. | 21:08 |
| weller | i guess i might need to update my bios or something because my sata controller only has a raid option in the bios when i have them in a mirrored raid they are seen by the installer but it wont install just pop the box | 21:10 |
| RuralZA | Your problem does sound RAID related though. Do you know what the controller model is? | 21:10 |
| RuralZA | Yeah it's probably looking for drivers. What version of edubuntu are you using | 21:10 |
| RuralZA | ? | 21:10 |
| weller | 14.04 lts | 21:11 |
| weller | im looking for my card now | 21:11 |
| weller | i just got this PC yesterday from a friend lol i dont know a lot about it yet | 21:11 |
| RuralZA | Might be easier to get the model number off the motherboard and just look at the specs on the makers website | 21:12 |
| weller | and idk if it is an actual card the only pci card is my nvidia card i think the raid is built into the sata controller | 21:12 |
| weller | ok ill do that and see what i can see i think a bios update might do the trick to | 21:12 |
| RuralZA | Goodluck :) | 21:13 |
| weller | thanks | 21:14 |
| weller | pretty sure i found the solution to my problem if anyone is interested | 21:37 |
