need to know something, can i use "esound" to stream sounds to thin clients? atm all sounds comes from the server...
04:29
i've heard this is a common problems and it needs some sort of a 1337 h4x0r to get sounds working in thin clients...
04:31
but is there a "easy-way-around" to get sounds from the thin clients..?
04:31
<jammcq>
if you use LTSP-5 on Ubuntu 7.04, it should just work
04:32
<Nikopoika>
well... i'm using ltsp-4.2 on mandriva 2007...
04:32
<jammcq>
umm, you *should* be able to get it working, but i'm not the sound guru
04:33
if you check with some of the others, in the US a bit later today, you might get an answer

jammcq: sladen says he thinks the slowness of the Ubuntu kernel in LTSP might be caused by something that's called an interrupt delay. it's something they tweaked in the ubuntu kernel. have you talken to any ubuntu kernel guys yet?

<jammcq>
talked to 2 kernel guys, BenC and someone else

Hmm, TCOS.. :o
07:26
<yoho>
anyone: which distro should i use if i want software RAID and LTSP?
07:27
<ogra>
ubuntu or debian indeed :)
07:27
<Blinny>
heh
07:29
<meduxa>
jurl, let me check
07:29
<yoho>
ogra: right , but which version, is 'Alternate Install CD' available for ubuntu 7.04?
07:29
<ogra>
sure
07:29
<yoho>
i understand i need 'Alternate' for RAID, right? (i really want edubuntu)
07:30
<ogra>
http://www.bernardbelanger.com/computing/NaDa/
07:30
erm, sorry, wrong link

07:30vagrantc has joined #ltsp
07:30
<meduxa>
str4nd: http://www.tcosproject.org/
07:30
<ogra>
grab it from there, install a normal desktop with raid from the alternate CD and then follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPQuickInstall
07:30
<meduxa>
it is right for me
07:30
I'm able to see the web page normally
07:31
<yoho>
ogra: and how do i add the other packages that are in edubuntu?
07:31
<ogra>
yoho, oh, you want edubuntu ?
07:31
then ignore the above
07:31
<yoho>
y
07:31
<ogra>
http://releases.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/7.04/
07:32
grab the classroom server and the classroom server addon CDs
07:32
have a server with two NICs and install from the server CD ... that will set up the ltsp stuff automatically
07:32
<yoho>
that has raid?
07:32
<ogra>
after your first login just pop in the addon CD
07:33
<str4nd>
Host www.tcosproject.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
07:33
<ogra>
its identical to the ubuntu alternate CD but has the ltsp autosetup and different branding
07:33
<str4nd>
my *cking dns :D
07:33
<yoho>
for a production (school) environment, 7.04 is better than 6.06?
07:34
<ogra>
7.04 has far more features
07:34
<yoho>
great, thanks!

08:21
<jammcq>
usb is already in ltsp-4.2
08:21
do you have a USB device ?
08:22
<Guaraldo>
krinns: Its simple... Just two or tree lines on your lts.conf and one package to be installed (maybe already installed)
08:23
<krinns>
what is that package n what lines?
08:23
<jammcq>
krinns: WHAT are you trying to do?

08:27zege has joined #ltsp
08:27
<Guaraldo>
fallow the lines: LOCAL_STORAGE = Y MODULE_01 = "uhci-hcd" MODULE_02 = "usb-storage" MODULE_03 = "sd_mod"
08:27
<jammcq>
Guaraldo: he doesn't need those MODULE lines
08:27
that's all automatic
08:28
<mhterres>
even for 4.2 version ?
08:28
<jammcq>
yes
08:28
<Guaraldo>
jammcq: Oh!, sorry... I still use those lines...
08:29* Guaraldo will correct his documentation...

Hi. I've got a Problem with ltsp. I've installed a full ltsp environmenton my ubuntu 6.06.1 server, tftp is up and running, dhcpd works and nfs is sharing the filesystem. But when i try to boot my thin client (IBM Netvista) it says: no pxe server found, using standard boot file. Then it tries tftp, but i seems that it doesn't find a kernel to boot. Can someone help me?
08:29
<mhterres>
We didn't knew that
08:29
<krinns>
jammcq
08:29
then wgt line
08:29
i add?

oand novel linux desktop
08:32
<jammcq>
novell ?
08:32
<Guaraldo>
krinns: ???
08:32
<jammcq>
this should work for Ubuntu, but not for Novell
08:33
you should add: LOCAL_STORAGE = Y
08:33
<krinns>
only single line
08:33
for novell
08:33
and for ubuntu
08:34
<Guaraldo>
krinns: For Ububtu...
08:34
<zege>
Nobody an idea?
08:34
<sbalneav>
zege: what does your dhcpd.conf file look like?
08:34
Paste it to the pastebot
08:34
!pastebot
08:34
<ltspbot`>
sbalneav: "pastebot" is The LTSP pastebot is at http://pastebot.ltsp.org. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebot, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. A link to the content will be pasted in the channel.

<zege>
mom
08:34
<Guaraldo>
zege: Does the thinclient boots???
08:35
<jammcq>
zege: IBM Netvistas are very problematic
08:35
<zege>
jammcq: it was running some time ago, with the same install
08:36
<jammcq>
zege: check this wiki page: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Clients#IBM_NetVista_clients
08:36
<joebaker>
One of my LTSP 5 Ubuntu 7.04 users just "hibernated" the ltsp server :)
08:36
<zege>
i set it up to be a pc and now i'm using the intel etherboot client
08:36
<jammcq>
joebaker: ooops
08:36
<joebaker>
I can confirm that indeed the dhcp server doesn't restart properly after resuming from hibernation.
08:38
<krinns>
Guaraldo
08:38
i wont understand
08:38
<zege>
sbalneav: http://files.zege.at/dhcpd.conf
08:39
<Guaraldo>
krinns: I cant confirm it works on novell
08:39
<krinns>
ok
08:41
<joebaker>
man :Command not found --- this is weird...
08:41
The manUAL command..
08:42
<Guaraldo>
joebaker: Oh!, its not a good new...
08:42
<sbalneav>
zege: looks like those netvistas are going to be tough to get going.
08:43
<joebaker>
Guaraldo: Ubuntu-desktop doesn't seem to include man in it's base packages. apt-get install man did the trick
08:43
<zege>
sbalneav: they worked fine some time ago. But then they stopped, and i don't know why. Now I'm setting up the server again, but i can't get them working. :(
08:45
<sbalneav>
Looks like the netvistas are non-standard devices. The last time anyone updated the info on that page jammcq sent you was back in 2002
08:45
the kernel they were using was 2.4.x
08:45
<jammcq>
cliebow has done alot with netvistas
08:45
but I seem to remember it requiring a 2.4 kernel, which means it won't work with ltsp-4.x
08:45
<sbalneav>
jammcq: has he got them going with ltsp5?
08:45
<jammcq>
no
08:46
but I don't think zege is trying ltsp-5, is he?
08:46
<zege>
jammcq: i dunno
08:46
jammcq: how do i check what version i use?
08:48
i use the default ubuntu 6.06.1 package ltsp-server-standalone
08:48
<sbalneav>
That's ltsp 5
08:49
No work has been done on that to make it work on netvistas.
08:49
<zege>
ok, but as i sayed before, the netvistas worked with this setup some time ago
08:50
i just putted them into PC mode, and used the Intel Etherboot client
08:50
<sbalneav>
ok, so it used to work on ltsp3, with kernel 2.4
08:50
we're now on ltsp5, with kernel 2.6
08:50
<zege>
sbalneav: no, they worked with ltsp5
08:50
<jammcq>
zege: what distro?
08:50
<zege>
ubuntu
08:50
6.06.1 dapper drake
08:51
<sbalneav>
wait, you're using etherboot?
08:51
<zege>
yes
08:51
<ogra>
joebaker, why would you need a man command in an environment where you have no user accounts even ... we dont install man in the chroot
08:51
<sbalneav>
your dhcpd.conf is wrong.
08:51
<zege>
why
08:52
<sbalneav>
you're only doing pxe boots in that one.
08:52
<ogra>
joebaker, also what kind of desktop are you using ? gnome is patched and wont provide any hibernate options if a user comes from an ltsp client
08:52
<sbalneav>
you don't provide the etherboot option.
08:52
if substring( option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9 ) = "PXEClient" {
08:52
filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";
08:52
}
08:52
else{
08:52
filename "/ltsp/i386/nbi.img";
08:52
}
08:52
you need something like that, to differentiate between pxe and etherboot.
08:53
<zege>
mom
08:53
but there is no nbi.img ...
08:54
<ogra>
sbalneav, dapper had no etherboot support out of the box ... mknbi was buggy, remeber ?
08:54
joebaker, feel free to add something to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/48212 about the dhcpd stuff if you feel like
08:54
<sbalneav>
zege: Well, if you had it going before, then you must have had an nbi img
08:54plamengr has joined #ltsp
08:55

08:55
<zege>
ok,sry
08:56
now the kernel got loaded, but it can't mount the root file system, permission denied
08:56
lets see
08:56
do i have to add hosts to hosts file, like the ltsp-admin utility did?
08:57sbalneav has quit IRC
08:58
<ogra>
zege, ltsp5 does everything automatically ...
08:58
imagine a lveCD that sets up X for you etc
08:58
*liveCD
08:58
<zege>
ogra sure?
08:58Burgundavia has quit IRC
08:58
<ogra>
you *can* override that in lts.conf
08:58
<zege>
because there are no entries in hosts hosts.allow and hosts.deny
08:58
<ogra>
but it usually works out of the box
08:58
no need for that
08:59
<zege>
ok, but why do i get permission denied with nfs?
08:59
<vagrantc>
some other reason, for sure.
08:59* vagrantc thinks a bit
08:59
<ogra>
dhcp ?
08:59
or network package size ?
09:00Burgundavia has joined #ltsp
09:00
<ogra>
check the wiki.ltsp.org site about nfs
09:00
<vagrantc>
!nfs
09:00
<ltspbot`>
vagrantc: "nfs" is the protocol that serves the files needed by LTSP. You can find info at http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/NFS
09:00
<ogra>
ah :)
09:03
<zege>
ogra: but nfs is working, i have some mounts no my local pc
09:04
<vagrantc>
zege: grep root-path /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
09:04
<ogra>
then its likely to be dhcp not pointinhg to the right nfs server or so ...
09:05
<jammcq>
zege: also, do this: showmount -e
09:05
make sure it agrees with what your root-path is set to
09:06irule has joined #ltsp
09:07
<zege>
shomount -e: Esport List for ONENATION: /opt/ltsp *
09:07
and the dhcpd.conf points to the right server
09:07
<jammcq>
what's the path?
09:08
<vagrantc>
zege: could you please paste the output exactly as it says
09:08
<zege>
very difficult, because i'm on a terminal, and i don't know how to paste from tty1 to tty3
09:08
<jammcq>
then type it. it's not that long
09:09
<joebaker>
ogra: It's the main LTSP server that needed the man command. I wasn't referring to the LTSP chroot. Is there a way I could have said that better. Wow this NoMachine is great. I though when you suspended a session that IRC wouldn't continue receiving messages. To my delight and astonishment I can look back through the evening logs of the #ltxsp channel.
09:09
<zege>
ok
09:09
<vagrantc>
zege: does it contain an ip address?
09:09
<zege>
mom#
09:10
the netvista tryed to mount 192.168.1.1:192.168.1.1:/opt/ltsp/i386 so i fixed the dhcpd.conf and now waiting for the netvista
09:11
and now everything is alright. it boots up normally<
09:11
thanks everyone :) !
09:12
<vagrantc>
zege: if you had just grepped the line from dhcpd.conf i could have told you that much quicker :P
09:14
<zege>
yes, what shall i say now .... ;)
09:14
<vagrantc>
well, you already said thanks, so :)
09:14
<zege>
THANKS!
09:15
and i say it again, only for yiou
09:16
<vagrantc>
heh
09:16
<zege>
vagrantc: do you know the default xdmcp port?
09:16
<vagrantc>
grep xdmcp /etc/services
09:16
<zege>
because i want to set up xdm instead of gdm, but i don't know the port
09:17
<vagrantc>
why do you need to know the port?
09:17
<zege>
thx
09:17
for the config file
09:17
there was a 0 instead of the port
09:20* vagrantc suspects zege is editing the wrong file

for starters...what distro?
13:27
<PY1NB>
tnx
13:27
where does lts.conf lives?
13:28
/opt/ltsp-4.2/i386/etc/lts.conf ?
13:28
what do I need to restart in order to the server reflect the changes I made?
13:29
<Blinny>
PY1NB: Yes. Check out the X_MODE_0 directive.
13:29
PY1NB: Just the thin client.
13:29
<PY1NB>
cool! tnx
13:32
I changed there, but when I reload the client (ctrl-alt-bkspace), stills at 640x480
13:32
<Blinny>
PY1NB: You're just reloading the previously-created XF86Config file. You need to restart the client.
13:35
<PY1NB>
ok
13:37
hmm, no change

X11 ?
13:40
I think its the default one
13:41Q-FUNK has quit IRC
13:43
<Blinny>
PY1NB: If it's staying at 640x480 then it's probably running VESA. This is the fall-back video mode that works on almost all video cards, but is really slow. XOrg usually can guess what kind of card you have, but in your case it probably isn't guessing correctly. You may need to specify which xserver to run. Read up here: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/VideoCards
13:44
<PY1NB>
hm, thats an old trident adapter
13:48
XSERVER = trident ?
13:48
or XSERVER = X.org

13:55
<Blinny>
Scan you xorg.log to see what is being used
13:55
(on the client.. is located in vt2)
13:55
probably
13:56
<Gadi>
PY1NB: if this is LTSP5, you may need to specify X_VERTREFRESH and X_HORZSYNC
13:57
<PY1NB>
Gadi: I did
13:57
<Gadi>
what values?
13:58
<PY1NB>
X_HORZSYNC = 30-54 X_VERTREFRESH = 50-110
13:58
its a phillips 105s monitor
13:58

that horizontal sync is very low

14:00
http://www.sprint.net.au/~terbut/usefulbox/p105s.htm also tells the same
14:02
<Gadi>
ok, well: 1. put them in quotes
14:02
like: "30-54"
14:02
2: make sure you have: XSERVER=trident
14:02Q-FUN1 has quit IRC
14:03
<Gadi>
and: X_MODE_0 = "1024x768"
14:03
if it continues to be stubborn, you can set: SCREEN_02 = shell in lts.conf
14:04
then hit ctrl-alt-f2 on the thin client, bring up a shell, and look at the client's Xorg log file
14:04
<PY1NB>
http://pastebin.us/33406
14:04
<Gadi>
it will tell you why the videocard refuses to give you the resolution you want
14:06
<PY1NB>
where is the xorg log file?
14:06
<Gadi>
LTSP5: /var/log/X.org.....
14:07
<PY1NB>
/var/log is empty
14:07
<Gadi>
thats interesting
14:07
hmm
14:07
how about /tmp
14:08
<PY1NB>
neither
14:08
it is logging remotely at the server
14:09

hmmm
14:09
should still produce a Xorg log file
14:10

bah

<cy_co1>
trying to setup a thinclientlab (edubuntu 7.04), there is a configurationtool named ltsp-manager, which does not work. Can anybody confirm that?
14:25
<PY1NB>
Blinny: log says: insufficient memory for mode :( is this video card memory? or pc memory?
14:25
<Gadi>
video memory
14:25
you may need to specify
14:25
the driver may not be able to determine how much video mem there is
14:26
<PY1NB>
also, the other workstation which was working, now only loads X, not the x_login_thing
14:26
Gadi: how dould I do it?
14:27
<Gadi>
try: X_VIDEORAM = 2048
14:27
in lts.conf
14:27
<PY1NB>
tnx
14:27* Gadi is not sure if this was implemented in ltsp5
14:27
<Gadi>
but worth a try
14:28
otherwise, you may need to create a static xorg.conf file for that machine and call that file with XF86CONFIG_FILE
14:29
specifying the video memory as you would in xorg.conf
14:30
<PY1NB>
great success!!!
14:30
tnx for help folks!
14:30
but I do have a small problem now... it doesnt load the X login daemon, only that X cursor :(
14:31
and I only played on the lts.conf file
14:31
<Gadi>
PY1NB: ldm is really slow
14:31
try waiting a bit
14:31
:P
14:32
or try specifying more video memory (if you know how much the card has)
14:32
more video memory will help speed that a bit
14:36

waiting for more than 10 minutes
14:36

are you putting entries in [Default] in lts.conf?
14:41
if so, then they will affect all terminals

and put the specific entries there

16:50
<lns>

16:51
<cliebow>

16:51
<lns>
can i rm -r /opt/ltsp/i386 without having to download all the packages again? i have to wait like 20 mins every time i try again
16:51
<cliebow>
the cache should not be affected
16:51

16:56
<lns>
well i just did the server dist upgrade and i'm wondering why it didn't upgrade ltsp-server...
16:56
this is on 64-bit ubuntu server btw
16:56
<PY1NB>
mage, any idea?
16:56
<mage>
cliebow: inetd isn't tftp daemon
16:56
<cliebow>
no..but it passes out tftp
16:56
<mage>
PY1NB: I'd grab a manual, or try and find standard modelines
16:56
PY1NB: typically I've only had to specify a higher refresh rate in the x config and the standard modes work
16:57
<lns>
ok it's upgraded now...wtf, do you know why the dist upgrade didn't upgrade ltsp-server?
16:57
<mage>
hah and my workstation doesn't have an X config :-/
16:58
<PY1NB>
which part is the refresh rate? the first number?
16:58
<lns>
i used the commandline deal that was recommended on the ubuntu update site
16:58
<mage>
hangon, gotta go grab one
16:58
<cliebow>
so dpkg -l|grep ltsp-server gives?
16:58
5.?
16:58
<lns>
yep, it does now
16:58
<mage>
yea it is
16:58

irc support is kinda like bittorrent for me...if i'm at home anyway, i usually hang out after i get some questions answered and try to help other ppl out
17:00

been doing that like 7 years..repaying the debt..
17:01

the server i'm using is so hot... dual quad xeon 3GHz... 8 total CPUs, 8GB Ram, 120GB SAS hdds
17:01
i want it to have my children
17:01
<cliebow>
heh he
17:01
<lns>
don't tell my wife though =p
17:01
<cliebow>
she ought to fly..
17:01
<lns>
she'd be pissed
17:02
it does!!
17:02
<cliebow>
the server i mean
17:02
<lns>
hahaha
17:02
yes
17:02
i feel privledged to even put ubuntu on it
17:02
and if this project goes well, there are 7 other servers just liek this one for other schools to replace aging M$ environments
17:02
<cliebow>
what do you have for childre...i mean clients
17:03
<mage>
heh
17:03
<lns>
We got a bunch of NeoWare e100 thin clients, and then the rest are older Compaq iPaqs
17:03
<cliebow>
lns: i support 12 schools..only four for ltsp
17:03
<PY1NB>
mage: how do you suggest tweaking that? ?
17:03
<lns>
we had a major problem with the newer iPaqs (there were 2 different models in the classrooms) that had PXE issues and no support
17:03
cliebow, nice!!
17:03
that's still 4 better than 0
17:04
<cliebow>
yep..you using nx?
17:04
<lns>
i'm just supporting one after-school place now, but this one is going to launch a bunch more
17:04
<mage>
hmm
17:04Q-FUNK has quit IRC

nx absolutely rocks for remote admiin
17:04
<lns>
i've dabbled in it, i'm amazed with ti but haven't implemented it outside my testlab
17:05Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp

PY1NB: well its a CRT right? figure out its range for vertical/horizontal refresh rates
17:05
<lns>
i've read that x11 over ssh is very comparable to nx..? i wasn't sure if i should trust that
17:05
<mage>
or start out with, "what modes work in windows?"
17:05
<lns>
it was on a credible site though iirc
17:05
<cliebow>
it is SO easy to install in ubuntu..
17:05
<lns>
cliebow, that is VERY good to hear
17:05
that would be so awesome for the kids workign from home
17:05
they could access everything
17:06
<cliebow>
yes..we got roped into citrix before nx came along
17:06
<lns>
that would be like, the holy grail of LTSP/linux remote workstations
17:06
yikes
17:06
is freenx good?
17:06
or should ya stick with commercial nx
17:06
<mage>
PY1NB: you'll probably want to look at the log file, I know Xorg has a ton of builtin modelines that are pondered against the supported refresh rates
17:06
<cliebow>
lns:they can also import any damn thing in tru your firewall
17:06
i use o nly freenx
17:06
i have no budget
17:06
<mage>
also what video adaptor?
17:07
<lns>
cliebow, that is too cool
17:07
not about the budget...but these things make that matter less
17:08
i'm installing this LTSP to the elementary school I used to attend..its weird!
17:08
<cliebow>
we are orphaned..my clients have no memory..anf most wont load a 2.6 kernel
17:08

when I went here, we had Apple IIe systems...ahh, Lemonade Stand and Oregon Trail...haha
17:08
<cliebow>
yeah..
17:08
<lns>
oh wow
17:08
<cliebow>
i predate most of that..
17:09
<mage>
hmm does 2.6 run on a 486? my 486 laptop is still running 2.4
17:09
<lns>
you had the abacus? ;)
17:09
<cliebow>
our computer lab was punch card machine
17:09
<lns>
haha... that rocks
17:09
i bet those things taught you real well to mind your syntax
17:10
<mage>
hehe us young people have it too easy
17:10
<lns>
oh no
17:10

i had a lot of scratch pad

im curious what video card PY1NB has from trident that can do 1024x768 because none of mine can
17:11
<lns>
i remember when i was 5, typ‌ing programs in for my c64 line by line...and didn't know how to re-edit a line, so if i had a syntax error i had to input it all again
17:12
<mage>
oucg
17:12
;)
17:12
<lns>
trident cards are awesome...they are (were?) such good generic video cards
17:12
<PY1NB>
mage: maybe I am trying the wrong one
17:13
<cliebow>
amazing where it has gone...biill gates was a hairy hipy like me..dont know where i went wrgong
17:13
or did i
17:13
<lns>
cliebow, you had a conscience? ;)
17:13
<PY1NB>
mage: 9660 or similar
17:13
<mage>
how much video ram?
17:14
<PY1NB>
lemme see
17:14
actually 9680 1Mb
17:14
<mage>
ah
17:15
I guess you could run it at 8bit color
17:15
<PY1NB>
how do I set it?
17:16
X_COLOR_DEPTH
17:17
<mage>
probably
17:18
<PY1NB>
mage: that worked, but when I opened firefox, colors became bizarre
17:18
<mage>
yea
17:18
<PY1NB>
why?
17:19
<mage>
blah blah blah palettes
17:20
<PY1NB>
how to solve?
17:20
unsolvable?
17:20
<mage>
the X window system isn't exactly known for dealing with color depth issues
17:20
try and get more video ram
17:20
<PY1NB>
new card?
17:20
<lns>
PY1NB, if you're in 8-bit color, everything is gonna look like crap...like safe mode in windows
17:21
<mage>
http://www.geekwerk.com/store/images/VC008.jpg
17:21
yea I'd go with new card
17:22
<lns>
hehehe, i remember those!!
17:22
<mage>
I think the expansion ram would be difficult to find even in western world
17:22
<lns>
i remember being all excited when i got some more ram for mine
17:22
oh yeah
17:22
try ebay, but you'd be much better off getting a new card
17:22
<mage>
PY1NB: it'll do 800x600
17:23
calc 800*600*2/1024 = 937.5
17:23
<lns>
i dealt with those exact cards all the time where i used to work
17:23
<mage>
I dont have any tridents but I have mach64 and s3 that has those slots
17:24
nope, I only have a mach 64 now
17:25
<PY1NB>
I had another card laying around, just changed, works fine now :)
17:26
<mage>
thats good
17:27
<PY1NB>
tnx for helping, I should go home now ;)
17:27
<mage>
I'd label the 9680 "2007-05: works, max 800x600, only 1mb ram"
17:27
<PY1NB>
cool

odd
18:33
<muh2000>
the kernel panic also says:
18:33
mount: mounting ip:/bla on /newroot/nfsroot invalid argument
18:35
hmmmmmm mage it seems to be something with rpc.
18:36
tried to mount it on my workstation...
18:37
mount: RPC: authentication error; why = Failed (unspecified error)
18:38
but rpc. i dont know what it could be. never touched anything with rpc. or not that i know of it ^^
19:09

yea nfs is still voodoo for me
19:12
maybe you need to run rpc
