morning all, is there a way (I am using k12ltsp) to set the server to allow a 32Mb ram system load the GUI. I have to increase the TC ram to 64 for it to load the Gnome GUI of Fedora

I finally got usb-sticks working (ltsp 4.2), but cdrom isn't working. =)
08:19
Manually I can mount it from shell (on thin clients), but it doesn't appear in /etc/fstab at all. floppy & usb is there.

hi, i just tried to find a good scanner supported by sane for my ltsp env: None of the ones i have (scanjet 3770 and 3800) are supported, looked with our supplier: none of the ones the sell is supported from sane... does anybody have any recommendation on a good from sane supported scanner that is still on sale somewhere ?

<McPolo>
Ok, my problem solved. I had in lts.conf line MODULE_01=ide_generic, because previously id seemed that thin clients do not even load any ide-drivers. But i commented it out and now it works. :)

Hello, I have read the wiki's manual, but I'm still cant execute firefox locally in my clients, can somebody help me to do that?
12:48
btw I'm using Ubuntu + LTSP 4.2
12:54egypcio has quit IRC
12:56
<g333k_work>
no clues?
13:02egypcio has joined #ltsp
13:03
<McPolo>
g333k_work: Perhaps not so trivial task :)
13:04
<g333k_work>
McPolo, it hard to do that?
13:05
<McPolo>
g333k_work: I have no clue. Just looked at the wiki-page.
13:06
Why need to run firefox locally?
13:08
we tried googlevideo and some random movie .avi in thin clients. Sound and video does not sync very good, and .avi does pause a little once in a while.
13:08rjune has joined #ltsp
13:08
<McPolo>
But ofcourse, that's not main priority when using ltsp system.
13:09
<prpplague>
McPolo: googlevideo use adobe flash player?
13:10
<McPolo>
prpplague: yep, something like that.
13:10
<prpplague>
McPolo: there is a known bug with flash7 and linux that causes the audio to be out of sync with the video
13:10
<McPolo>
Sound needs some tweaking but those things are documented nicely in wiki.
13:10
<prpplague>
McPolo: there is a new flash9beta for linux
13:10
McPolo: that addresses the issue
13:11
<McPolo>
We didn't have time to play with it, because this ltsp isn't coming for real production.
13:11
But perhaps it would be nice to see, so that we don't include totally wrong information into our report.
13:11
<prpplague>
McPolo: well, it affects all liinux clients not just ltsp, just a note
13:12
<McPolo>
I know. :)
13:15
<hrc>
McPolo: I'm still having that blank desktop issue
13:15
<McPolo>
hrc: =)
13:15
hrc: I thought your firewall was solution.
13:16
<hrc>
McPolo: Yeah, me too. This is a real pain in the butt. It's driving me crazy.
13:16
<McPolo>
hrc: Why you need full desktop into windows?
13:16
hrc: Isn't some apps enough?
13:16gigabytes has joined #ltsp
13:17
<hrc>
I want to be able to work with the box full GUI style just like I was at console, from any of my other computers, be they linux or WIndows
13:17
<McPolo>
Ok.
13:17
Why not try cygwin?
13:17
<hrc>
McPolo: Same results
13:17
<McPolo>
HEh.
13:18
<hrc>
McPolo: My goal is to take 2 Ubuntu boxes and make them app servers, so I can connect to them from any old desktop and use a full, rich GUI. Then I will cluster them for high availability.
13:18
<McPolo>
hrc: Then I don't know anything else but run network scanner like ethereal and see what's going on.
13:19moose5435 has joined #ltsp
13:19
<McPolo>
hrc: If your gdm is configured right (there isn't much to do in xdcmp-section though, so probably it is ok in any case)
13:20
<hrc>
McPolo: Here's the kicker, once in a great while, the full desktop displays
13:22rjune has quit IRC
13:23
<hrc>
Ethereal doesn't seem to wanna work so that's out
13:25cliebow has joined #ltsp
13:28
<McPolo>
hrc: You need to run ethereal with sudo.
13:29
<hrc>
McPolo: Ethereal on WIn

Hello I followed this manual to run opera locally: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/LocalAppOpera, I have success in all the steps, now my client has booted, but how do I start Opera?

You might try contacting him by email.

<g333k_work>
sbalneav, Have you ever done something like that? running a web browser locally?
14:46
<sbalneav>
No, I never want to run them locally.
14:46
I'd much rather run them on the server.
14:46
That way I can kill them if they hang up.
14:47
<McPolo>
Ofcourse if clients are powerful, there's some reason to run them locally.
14:48
<sbalneav>
IMHO, no, but that's just me. :)
14:48
<g333k_work>
sbalneav, Is there much difference running firefox on the server or locally, I mean about the memory that takes from the server and the speed that reduces to the server
14:49
<sbalneav>
g333k_work: I have servers that have 40 people running firefox at the same time. So long as you're not running flash, they'll be fine.
14:50
We will be working on local apps this week.
14:50
So it should be better in ltsp5
14:50
<cliebow>
i also have 30 40

getting rumbly in your tumbly 8~)
14:52
<McPolo>
How does it handle firefox bookmarks etc. if they run locally?
14:52
<sbalneav>
You'd have to have your home mounted somehow.
14:52
<McPolo>
Oh, that was the way, right.
14:53
<sbalneav>
Plus, the workstation needs to have some idea of "who" you are.
14:53
<McPolo>
Now i understand why home directories were shared via nfs.
14:53
<sbalneav>
In the past, it's been by NIS
14:53jammcq_ has joined #ltsp
14:53
<sbalneav>
In the future it would be via LDAP.
14:53
<McPolo>
Well isn't all user accounts in LDAP in large system in any case?
14:54
<sbalneav>
Sometimes.
14:54

i'm running ltsp 4.2, and am having a screensaver issue.. i set the kde screensaver to start after 1 min, and it does, but about a minute later, something else kicks in and the screen goes blank.. how can I let the kde screensave continue to run?
15:08
<McPolo>
rstory: power savings go on?
15:08
turn on
15:13
<rstory>
no, the monitor light stays green... it goes yellow for power savings mode..

also, i tried adding 'X_DPMS_STANDBYTIME = 5' in lts.conf (before there were no DPMS entries), but the behavior is the same either way...

Hi folks, I'm having "trouble with sound". I've got a basic K12LTSP 5.0 setup, a PIII machine with an Ensoniq AudioPCI card, and I've been dealing with some folks on the k12ltsp list who finally referred me here.
