<johnny>
it'd be nice if ltspbot had a !tell command
00:20
<rjune_>
use memoserv
00:20
<johnny>
if anybody sees polytan , tell him i'm working on something to ease the installation hassles
00:20
LOL memoserv
00:20
that requires a user to be IDENTIFYed
00:20
!tell doesn't
00:20
<ltspbot`>
johnny: (tell <an alias, 2 arguments>) -- Alias for "Misc tell $1 [whatis $2]".
00:21
<johnny>
oh.. hmm
00:21
!tell polytan i'm working on obtaining a new stage3 tarball that should solve some issues, please wait on that
00:21
<ltspbot`>
johnny: Error: No factoid matches that key.
00:21
<johnny>
oh
00:21
it's something else i guess
00:21
<Ryan52>
!tell johnny docs
00:21
<johnny>
oh that's boring
00:21
<Ryan52>
did that do what I expected it to?
00:21
:p
00:22
<johnny>
what you expected
00:22
but not what i expected:)
00:22* Ryan52 nods
00:22
<johnny>
usually more like a pounce
00:22
so i guess we should have
00:22
!pounce
00:22
<ltspbot`>
johnny: Error: "pounce" is not a valid command.
00:24
<rjune_>
johnny: polytan is online
00:24
<Ryan52>
heh
00:25
<johnny>
ok?
00:25
and?
00:25
but not here at this moment
00:26
a !pounce would jump on him right when he speaks first :)
00:26
<Ryan52>
ah.
00:26
<johnny>
i'm sure he'll see all this now tho
00:26
just a nice feature
00:27
<rjune_>
johnny: you could pm him
00:27
I sent him a memo
00:27
<johnny>
rjune, i know silly
00:27
that isn't the point
00:27polytan has quit IRC
00:27
<Ryan52>
well, that solves that...
00:27
<rjune_>
heh
00:28
<johnny>
see you broke him rjune
00:28
lol
00:30
ok.. night night time

Ryan52: well, the "glitch" with sessions not supporting fulls paths... it just blindly went ahead and decided it was the default session.
00:41
<Ryan52>
full paths in the .dmrc file?
00:41
<vagrantc>
in ~/.dmrc ... i.e.
00:41
Session=/usr/bin/gnome-session
00:41
<Ryan52>
gnome docs don't mention that...are there some that do?
00:42
or is there a *dm that does support that?
00:42
<vagrantc>
i don't know weather it's supposed to be supported or not... but just silently ignoring a value it doesn't know seems a little weird...
00:42
all unknown values are treated as "default"
00:43
<Ryan52>
ya...what should it do? give an error?
00:44
<vagrantc>
maybe just a warning message... "unknown session: fall back to default session?"
00:44
<Ryan52>
that seems scary since afaik there's no specification for .dmrc, so there could be random stuff that's valid to some *dm...
00:44
<vagrantc>
something like that?
00:44
indeed.
00:44alkisg has joined #ltsp
00:45
<Ryan52>
ya, ok.
00:45
<vagrantc>
i think gdm respected the full path when i put it in... but i'm not sure.
00:45
overall, i think what you've done so far is great :)
00:46
ldm 2.0.21-1 should hit debian experimental in a few hours.
00:47
and i already installed it on our lenny ltsp server at freegeek.
00:48
<Ryan52>
vagrantc: once alioth comes back to life can you chgrp -R the whole bzr repo? it's a little pointless to have a group when only you have write access...
00:49
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: heh. sure.
00:49
<Ryan52>
not that anybody else would probably ever use it, but ya :)

We have a problem with our thin clients, It seems like each user has 2 instances of the process "ps" running.. using 2% cpu each.. as you imagine..this is a problem when there is 30 users logged on.. cpu load is at 90-100% what can i do?
03:05
<rjune_>
ps runs then terminates
03:05
the only reason I know of that ps won't terminate immediately is if you are using LDAP or similar and are having a server problem
03:07
<generalsnus>
i am authenticating against M$ AD
03:08
"ps" also seems dissapear if i do "killall firefox"
03:08
but it only takes seconds before they are back again
03:09
<rjune_>
generalsnus: do you know what ps is?
03:10mchelen1 has joined #ltsp
03:11
<generalsnus>
ps displays information about processes... that is all i found on the net
03:11tarbo has quit IRC
03:11
<rjune_>
right, it's a command line program
03:11
if you go to a terminal and run ps, it will show you the programs running
03:11
killall firefox is irrelevant.
03:11
you have something else that's running ps repeatedly
03:12
login to your terminal, and run pstree
03:12
you my have to install pstree
03:12
<generalsnus>
ok
03:12
pstree done
03:13
what now? heh
03:13
<rjune_>
see ps in the tree?
03:14
trace it back to find out what's starting ps
03:15ltsppbot has quit IRC
03:18ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
03:20
<generalsnus>
hm.. i see: ─38*[python───sh─ ps ─grep]
03:20
is this related?
03:24
ok.. pstree output: http://paste2.org/p/113585
03:28
<rjune_>
generalsnus: yes.
03:29
do ps auxwww|grep python
03:29
looks like there's a python something running that's shellng out ps
03:35
<generalsnus>
..the students rebooted their clients.. so ill do that in a min

Ok did the command on a another LTSP Server: http://paste2.org/p/113591 when i did "top | grep ps" i only found 2 instances on the server tho
03:49
<rjune_>
generalsnus: python /usr/bin/scp-client <-- I bet that's what's running ps on you.
03:52
<polytan>
i would loike to use ltsp too :(
03:52
where is the bzr to retreive ldminfo ?
03:52
<generalsnus>
scp-client = thin-client-manager-backend : http://paste2.org/p/113596
03:53
<rjune_>
generalsnus: ok.
03:53bobby_C has joined #ltsp
03:54
<rjune_>
generalsnus: pstree -a should confirm that scp client is what's doing the repeated ps

<generalsnus>
hm.. we tried to killall python, just to get the system responsive again... cpu load went back to 20%
03:58
<rjune_>
so load dropped, then went back up?
03:59
what hardware are you using?
03:59
<generalsnus>
no..still low.. and no PS processes spawned
04:00
x2 xenon 2.6ghz
04:00
is there somthing i can do to the script, to prevent this?
04:03
<rjune_>
probably, but I don't know what's going on
04:03
I'm not too familiar with it anymore.
04:03
likely what's happening is ps queries ADS, which causes wait
04:03
and that's what's causing your load to be so high
04:04
if you run top and look near the top(3rd line) you'll see X% WA
04:04
that's wait time, it's the cpu doing nothing but waiting on data
04:05
a local cache for user info would help.
04:05
so would increasing the responsiveness of the AD connection
04:05
<generalsnus>
hm, cant see this now tho.. since the load is down and all
04:06
<rjune_>
right.
04:06
you could always through more hardware at it, but that's not really a solution
04:09
<generalsnus>
Im gonna restart the servers after launch, then ill see if this happens again.. ill keep an eye at top tho
04:09
<polytan>
rjune, my client has started ldm itself :/
04:09
<generalsnus>
brb ..lunch
04:10
<polytan>
I had started it and forgotten that the system was lauched
04:10
and it appeared :/
04:10
but X seems to fail to startd (screen is going black and back to the shell prompt)
04:11
do I have to set up ldap or if I use the login/pass of an existing user on my server the X session should start ?
04:12ltsppbot has quit IRC
04:13ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
04:16
<rjune_>
polytan: generally ldap is not required unless you are using localapps, or integrating the LTSP server into a larger network
04:20
<polytan>
ok
04:20
rjune, currently, ldm starts automatically instantly after the boot
04:20mikkel has quit IRC
04:20
<rjune_>
that sounds right
04:20
I've not done much since ltsp 4.2
04:20
<polytan>
I think it was because a few componenets where missing on the chroot (I was installing gdm)
04:21
but when I enter a login/passwd that works on the server, X fails to start and blink on the screen
04:22
<rjune_>
look in ~/.xsession-errors
04:22
there may be something else happening that's killing it
04:22
ldm is to my knowledge an X program.
04:23
<polytan>
hum
04:23
it seems to me that it is an X issue
04:23alkisg has joined #ltsp

05:01
do you know if we must unmask xorg-x11 to switch to 7.3 or 7.4 and have this extension ?

hi
06:00
is it normal that ltsp clients do not run a dhcp client daemon?
06:01alekibango has quit IRC
06:03
<moldy>
my clients don't run one, and that means that they fail to renew their dhcp leases
06:07ltsppbot has quit IRC
06:08generalsnus has quit IRC
06:08
<polytan>
I've found a bug in ldm
06:08
in the ldm.log, it is written : "my ip is 192.168.32.1"
06:08
the hostname is 192.168.32.1
06:09
(everything normal here)
06:09
the route is well set to 192.168.32.254 (my server)
06:09
<rjune_>
ok, that's good
06:09
<polytan>
but ldm try to connect by ssh to 192.168.0.254 (0 !)
06:09
<rjune_>
neat
06:09
you sure it's not a typo in a config file somewhere?
06:10
<polytan>
I don't know where is it
06:10
but there is nothing on 192.168.0.x
06:10
and I've never specify any 192.168.0.x
06:10
(or I believe it)
06:10
<rjune_>
ok
06:10ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
06:11
<polytan>
do you know where ldm look at his config file to configure itself ?
06:11
<rjune_>
no

<polytan>
rjune, it seems that the search for the server ip fails so it switches to the defaukt one set up: 192.168.0.254
06:32
I've modified /usr/share/ltsp/lts_cponfig and it works :)
06:32
ly first ltsp client ;)
06:33
<moldy>
ltsp clients do not run a dhcp client daemon, right? this is a bug, right?
06:34mikkel has quit IRC
06:38highvoltage has quit IRC
06:40
<polytan>
moldy, the dhcp is before, during boot
06:41
I think it is simply the search of the server ip wich fails
06:41
I come back
06:41polytan has quit IRC
06:42Chidder has joined #ltsp
06:42
<moldy>
polytan: but dhcp leases must be renewed!
06:42polytan has joined #ltsp
06:42
<moldy>
you cannot simply assume that you can have the ip forever.
06:43
<polytan>
yes
06:43
that's why I would like to know where is the problem
06:43
<moldy>
polytan: so, it's a bug, right?
06:43highvoltage has joined #ltsp
06:43
<moldy>
polytan: the problem is that my clients do not renew their dhcp leases
06:44
<polytan>
moldy, ok
06:44
<moldy>
polytan: i am currently trying to figure out wether that is true for a default ltsp client, or wether i messed up something
06:44
<polytan>
moldy, on mine, it the search of the master ip which fails
06:44
<moldy>
but i think it is normal
06:44
polytan: i see. different problem than mine.
06:44
<polytan>
and I also can't choose neither the keyboard layout in ltsp nor the session (gnome, xfce4, etc)

08:48cosf has quit IRC
08:48
<rjune>
Guevara, it's a known problem, there is a known fix.
08:48
<Guevara>
hi nubae, i install ubuntu 8.04 and have 20 machines clients, i plugged usb in the server and appears in the 20 machines
08:49
<nubae>
ah that, yeah, as rjune said :-)
08:49
<rjune>
nubae, when he plugs a USB thumbdrive into a terminal, it shows up on all terminals
08:49
<Guevara>
rjune, how to fix?
08:49
<rjune>
I don't knowl
08:49
<Guevara>
=/
08:49
<rjune>
wait around for about anhour, and the folks that do know will be here.
08:49
<nubae>
what distro?
08:49* Gadi thinks it only happens if all users have same default group
08:49
<rjune>
in the meantime, have you looked at the ltsp wiki for info?
08:49
<Guevara>
ubuntu 8.04
08:49
<nubae>
right
08:49
u need each user in its own group
08:49
<Guevara>
i have this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP
08:50
<Gadi>
quick fix: each user should have a unique fdefault group
08:50
*default
08:50
<Guevara>
yes, each client is in the own group
08:50alekibango has quit IRC
08:50
<nubae>
hmmm
08:50
<rjune>
Guevara, test that, put each user inhta user(do one to test first)

08:51
<polytan>
I think it is a normal behaviour
08:52
<nubae>
alkisg: u can't edit the main UbuntuLTSP page?
08:52
<polytan>
because all users are on the same desktop
08:52

it might be fixed in Intrepid
08:52
<alkisg>
nubae: I don't know, but still, it won't change the subpage URL, will it?
08:53
<Guevara>
the monitor that took account of the laboratory can not use usb cd and not on the server
08:53
<alkisg>
nubae, I can change it, but the trunking subpage isn't even in there... :)
08:54
anyway... ty!
08:54
<Gadi>
Guevara: if you are plugging it into the server directly, then yes, it will appear for all users
08:54
if you plug into a thin client, it should only appear for that user
08:54ltsppbot has quit IRC
08:55
<Gadi>
if you do not want server-devices to appear on people's desktops, you should modify gconf to not make volumes visible
08:55
<Guevara>
yes Gadi, but is not possible to modify it?
08:55
humm
08:55ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
08:56
<nubae>
Guevara: yes edit the udev rules
08:56
<Guevara>
but it also will not appear on the server, correct?
08:56
nubae: gconf or udev?
08:56
<alkisg>
Gadi: "you should modify gconf to not make volumes visible" - some more info on that?
08:56
<Gadi>
sudo gconf-editor
08:57
apps > nautilus > desktop
08:57
uncheck volumes_visible
08:57
<Guevara>
yes Gadi, but it also will not appear on the server, correct?
08:57
<alkisg>
Gadi: ty!
08:57
<Gadi>
right click on it and "Set as Mandatory"
08:58
<Guevara>
right
08:58
<Gadi>
then, you won't get icons on the desktops for volumes
08:58
<Guevara>
for alll?
08:58
<Gadi>
hmm...
08:58
not sure if it affects our LTSP volumes or not
08:58
<alkisg>
Gadi: ok, I can put a "default=unchecked" for all the users except the teacher there...
08:58
<Gadi>
many things have changed since I last did this trick
08:58
<Guevara>
and if you plug usb, will show his?
08:59
<Gadi>
but, try it
08:59
if you just run gconf-editor (no sudo) you will change just your user
08:59
so, you can change it for yourself
08:59
logout/login
08:59
and see what happens

morning all
09:02alkisg has quit IRC
09:02
<petre>
how do I enable port forwarding on the ltsp server so that fat clients on the TC segment can connect to the internet?
09:02
As I recall it's just a matter of turning on something in the kernel
09:02
<Gadi>
echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
09:02
<petre>
Gadi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
09:03
<Gadi>
edit /etc/sysctl.conf (to make that permanent)
09:03
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
09:03
iptables-save
09:03
(all as root)
09:03
:)
09:03
or some such
09:04
morning, petre
09:04
<Guevara>
the clients are plugged into a switch, the cable network must be crossover or may be normal?
09:05
<petre>
yes, switch
09:05
hmm,
09:05
<Gadi>
cable network?
09:05
<petre>
dns not working on fat client
09:05
<Guevara>
yes
09:05
<Gadi>
use regular cables when plugging into a switch
09:05
<Guevara>
crossover or normal?
09:05
<nubae>
petre: feed dns via dhcp maybe
09:06
<Gadi>
(otherwise home routers would suck)
09:06
<petre>
server is laptop w/wireless & wired port
09:06
wireless is connected to internet (that's how I'm connected to #ltsp)
09:06
<Gadi>
petre: did you specify dns in dhcpd.conf?
09:06
option domain-name-servers
09:06
<Guevara>
yes, but I suspect that the usb is not mounted on clients because of that gadi
09:06alkisg has joined #ltsp
09:07
<petre>
and FC has server as its DNS server
09:07
<Guevara>
i put in lts.conf, module_1: ehci-usb, module_2: ohci-usb
09:07
local-storage: yes
09:08
<petre>
so server ought to just forward the request to internet
09:09alkisg has quit IRC
09:11
<Gadi>
petre: log into the client's shell
09:11
and do some pinging
09:11
also, check route -n on the client
09:12
and see that it is setup with the server as the gateway
09:12ltsppbot has quit IRC
09:13
<petre>
yeah, it's a dns issue
09:13ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
09:13
<petre>
if I wget an ip addy, it works
09:13
but if I wget the dns name, it fails
09:14
<Gadi>
do you set domain-name-servers in dhcpd.conf?
09:14
oh- try the DNS_SERVER param in lts.conf
09:14* Gadi wonders if we ported that to 5
09:14
<petre>
well, the client is being told that the server is the dns server
09:15
which is correct, isn't it?
09:16
dhcpd.conf has domain-name-servers set to the server's addy
09:16
as expected
09:17
warren, is k12linux using dnsmasq?
09:17
hmm, no named running on server

09:29

09:31* Gadi notes that there are many ways to do NAT, with the simple MASQUERADE being the most brainless (but not necessaruly the recommended)
09:32* warren likes brainless
09:32
<Gadi>
++
09:32
<Q-FUNK>
bimbo++
09:32
<warren>
why is it not recommended?
09:32
<Gadi>
well, many tutorials advocate SNAT and DNAT and crap
09:33
I dont know that its wrong to MASQUERADE, I think it is just indiscriminate
09:33
<warren>
indiscriminate in that it works for everyone, while SNAT and DNAT work only when you tell it?
09:34
<Gadi>
no indiscriminate in that you cannot specify who why when how and to where and to what you are masquerading
09:34
you are just masquerading
09:34
with SNAT and DNAT you can masquerade conditionally
09:34
<pscheie>
I haven't tried localapps yet, but wouldn't they require nat/masquerade/dns on the server?
09:34
<Gadi>
no
09:35
local apps sends signals over existing connections
09:35
(ssh and X11)
09:36
<pscheie>
right, but what does, say, firefox think the addy of the dns server is?
09:36
that of the ltsp server? or the dns server listed in the ltsp server's resolv.conf?
09:37
<Gadi>
oh - if it runs on the client, it uses the client's resolv.conf
09:37
<pscheie>
which is just a copy of the server's resolv.conf?
09:37
<Gadi>
perhaps - if that is in the ltsp-build-plugin
09:38
<pscheie>
or is it going to use the dns server setting given out by dhcpd?
09:38
<Gadi>
but, if DNS_SERVER is still honored, that can overwrite it
09:38
oh, by dhcp
09:38
I think
09:38
prolly depends on the distro
09:38
<pscheie>
in k12linux's case, anyway, dhcp says the ltsp server is dns server
09:38
<Gadi>
for example, warren - is resolv.conf writable for you?
09:39
<warren>
Gadi: it can be.
09:39
<Gadi>
is it already?
09:39* warren looks
09:40
<Gadi>
if it is not, then k12linux uses the dns info that wasa inserted when you ran ltsp-build-client
09:40
<warren>
yes
09:40
<Gadi>
ah
09:40
then it may be updated by the dhcp client
09:40
or by DNS_SERVER
09:40
warren: do you remember if we still honor DNS_SERVER in lts.conf?
09:41
<warren>
I've never heard of it before.
09:41spectra has joined #ltsp
09:41* Gadi thinks we need that because dhcp client runs in initramfs
09:41
<Gadi>
so it would not update resolv.conf
09:42
so, DNS_SERVER in lts.conf would make sure resolv.conf is written to
09:42
<pscheie>
Gadi, client's resolv.conf, right?
09:42
<Gadi>
that was in LTSP4 - dont know if the code was ported
09:42
pscheie: yup
09:43
<warren>
Gadi: I might eventually get to merging GX1 into the geode driver. I have GX1 hardware but no GX2.
09:43
<Gadi>
roger, that
09:43
gx2 is already in the driver
09:44
<warren>
I know
09:44
but we need it to detect GX1 vs GX2 or upstream wont let us autodetect GX2
09:45
<Gadi>
right
09:45
is that more than just adding GX1 code + IDs?
09:45Blinny has joined #ltsp
09:45
<warren>
yes
09:45
because the ID's of GX1 are the same as GX2
09:46
<Gadi>
ah
09:46
so what can we key off of?
09:46
<warren>
Gadi: there is something hidden queryable in the hardware that is different between the two
09:46
<Q-FUNK>
Gadi: the old nsc driver has some of the info
09:46
<Gadi>
ah, ok
09:46
well, if you need me to tell you what the GX2 reports, lemme know
09:47
I can ask it as many questions as you like

10:11
:(
10:11
my nodes are working
10:12
<johnny>
no.. i made the ebuild yesterday
10:12
<polytan>
nearly well
10:12
<johnny>
right when i said i would
10:12
and tested, and committed
10:12
<polytan>
I was at home and I needed to sleep :)
10:12
<johnny>
you just had to layman -s ltsp
10:12
<polytan>
ok
10:12
maybe it will help me actually
10:14
<_UsUrPeR_>
warren: could you point me towards the package pertaining to ltsp-localapps...
10:14
<johnny>
polytan, i'm redoing it all anyways
10:14
which i mentioned last night
10:15
i'm going to use a newer stage3
10:15
from daniel robbins
10:15
which means the updates will be quicker
10:15
<chrisinajar>
has anyone ever had problems with ltspfs randomly breaking?
10:15
<johnny>
not me.
10:16
<chrisinajar>
it seems to disconnect, and you get the transport endpoint not connected error, umount and remount it and everything works fine again
10:16
though sometimes the local ltspfs daemon stops working, and you need to restart it..
10:16
<johnny>
i only got transport endpoint not connected via gvfs :)
10:16* johnny kicks it
10:16
<chrisinajar>
it's a pretty rare occurance, and definitely only happens when the user is logged in for along time (days)
10:17
<johnny>
aha
10:17
that is possible
10:17
i guess
10:18
i've never had anybody logged in that long
10:18
good to know
10:18
i bet it is a real live bug
10:18
maybe some fuse timeout thing
10:18
<chrisinajar>
no, it's totally unreliable...
10:18
<johnny>
oh
10:18
<chrisinajar>
sometimes it works for weeks, sometimes it breaks after 3 or 4 days...
10:18
it breaks really rarely too, which makes things worse...
10:18
<johnny>
ouch
10:19
<chrisinajar>
i hate bugs like that...

out of the box
10:22

thus newer stage3 are important

johnny, so
10:22
I solved the problem of ldminfo (I think) because I did "emerge gdm" on the node
10:23
<johnny>
no!
10:23
<polytan>
I wanted to do xdmcp
10:23
<johnny>
that is not ltsp anymore
10:23
oh.. then why are you using ltsp?
10:23
<polytan>
I know
10:23
<johnny>
you won't get sound
10:23
or local devices
10:23
<polytan>
I know
10:23
I wanted to try a few things
10:23
and it was the only way I had to choose a specific session per user
10:23
anyway
10:24
<johnny>
the new ldm is supposed to let you do that
10:24
<warren>
_UsUrPeR_: it is installed as part of ltsp-client and ltsp-server
10:24
<johnny>
it also saves it
10:24
<polytan>
emerge gdm installed X11 depedencies which were (I think) necessary to ldm
10:24
<johnny>
polytan, that just means the installation didn't finish correctly
10:24ltsppbot has quit IRC
10:24
<johnny>
probably due to the issues i mentioned
10:24
<polytan>
yes
10:24
maybe
10:24
<_UsUrPeR_>
warren: you put the whitelist changes upstream?
10:25
<warren>
_UsUrPeR_: no
10:25
I suppose I can work more on that right now
10:25
<polytan>
the only choice I have in the "choose your session" in ldm are "default" and "xterm"
10:25
<warren>
I have two semi-working implementations that upstream must choose from
10:25
<johnny>
i would love to have on an online hackfest with you guys in relation to dbus
10:25

10:26

or have time to fix yet even
10:28
new genkernels are coming out tho
10:28
<polytan>
I had a problem with make.conf config
10:29
when you do the chroot, it goes to /usr/portage/packages/x86 (which is perfect)
10:29
and after, there is nothing specified anymore, so it goes to /usr/packages/
10:29
and if the server is amd64 and the clients x86...
10:30
I would prefer to have everything in x86's folder
10:30

johnny, there was also a problem in "SERVER" ip discovering
10:32
I had to specify it manually in /usr/share/ltsp/ltsp-config
10:32
<johnny>
you might not have setup the netboot right
10:33
what did your pxelinux.cfg/default look like
10:33
it should look like so
10:33
DEFAULT bzImage ro initrd=initramfs root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.2.4:/opt/ltsp/x86
10:35

Lns, ok, let's leave it to "Trunking" then! :P :D
12:00
ty!
12:00
<Lns>
alkisg: np. I'm hoping to find a good chunk of time to set aside and revamp the rest of the pages (standard header/format the index to better display specific versions the page applies to, etc)
12:02
<alkisg>
Lns, I think it would be better if the versions were part of the url... e.g. /8.10/community/UbuntuLTSP, /8.04/community/UbuntuLTSP...
12:03
<Lns>
alkisg: I agree, but how to have a page that applies to multiple versions?
12:03
<alkisg>
.Lns, url rewriting can work wonders! :)
12:03
<Lns>
unless you can sort of symlink ...hmm, rewriting?
12:04
<alkisg>
Lns, yeah, but someone has to have server access.. it would be a very simple script, though
12:04
<Lns>
alkisg: is it something as part of a feature of the wiki software, or a hackish type script?
12:04
are you talking about apache url rewriting?
12:05
<nubae>
alkisg: unfortunately we don't
12:05
<alkisg>
Lns, I don't know about moinmoin, but other CMSs do support url rewriting
12:05
<nubae>
only ubuntu server team has access
12:05
and they willl never go for that
12:05
<alkisg>
nubae, sure, it would have to be for the whole ubuntu community, not just for LTSP...
12:06
<Lns>
So we need to figure out something to better tag the pages for versions.
12:06
<nubae>
well propose it to ubuntu server team then, u never know, they might agree
12:06
<Lns>
I think maybe a (8.04, 8.10) type tag at the end of the link would work pretty well
12:08
Or possibly a new index that simply asks you what version you want to work with, and then has pages under that, that link to the actual relevant pages
12:08
that's more editing, though, than the tag option

Lns, what's the problem with the current scheme? I.e. "This wiki page is specific to Ubuntu Version(s): 8.04, 8.10" ?
12:16
<Lns>
alkisg: the only thing is that it doesn't show on the main page what version it's intended for
12:16
I guess it's semi-moot, but it'd be nice to have them categorized / tagged somehow
12:16
<alkisg>
Lns, ehm... you'd need a script for that!
12:17
<Lns>
alkisg: ?
12:17d3co has quit IRC
12:17
<alkisg>
E.g. I make a page for 8.10, you mark it as such on the index, later I decide to extend it for 8.04, well, it'll be a burden
12:17ogra has quit IRC
12:18
<alkisg>
So a wget script for all the subpages, and then searching for the tags and automatically reconstructing the main page
12:19
<Lns>
alkisg: that's more pain (for me anyway) than it'd be worth to just go through the pages
12:19
The first task is to actually figure OUT which pages are intended for what versions
12:19
A lot of them don't say, and it'd be real hard for me to verify them all on my own :(
12:21
<alkisg>
Yeap... well, if there were different pages for each ubuntu version, and the author had to duplicate & maybe extend the pages for newer versions, maybe it would be easier for maintainance...
12:21
<Lns>
I'd be all for simply extending the pages and not creating duplicates for the same task actually
12:22
case = multiple versions, simply have an anchor link at the top of the page for whatever version
12:23
That would remove the necessity for tagging the main page then too

Lns, what about wiki categories? E.g. "Category UbuntuLTSP 8.04", "Category UbuntuLTSP 8.10" and so on? This way there would be a different index for each version, and it would be autogenerated...
12:48
(Can a page belong in more that one categories?)
12:49
<Lns>
alkisg: I haven't looked into categories..might be worth looking into, but again, yeah.. belonging to multiple categories, not sure
12:50
<alkisg>
Lns: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/Trunking
12:50
Multiple categories
12:50
So, you could define these categories: (1) Ubuntu 8.04, (2) Ubuntu 8.10 (and so on, for all versions), and (3) LTSP.
12:51
So, Trunking would go under Ubuntu 8.04, Ubuntu 8.10 AND LTSP. In 3 categories. Wouldn't that be better organization?
12:52
...and it would be very easy to automatically generate index for 8.04 + LTSP, 8.10 +LTSP...
12:52
<Lns>
alkisg: sounds like a good idea..
12:54
<alkisg>
Lns, if you even need any wget / scripting help, ping me! :)
12:55
<Lns>
alkisg: I will, thanks =) I need to read up on categories - not sure how they work currently.
12:56
<alkisg>
Lns, simple, I just put trunking to 2 categories (documentation and networking), and now it automatically shows in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CategoryDocumentation and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CategoryNetworking
12:56
<Lns>
alkisg: yeah, i'm looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CategoryCategory right now, looks promising
12:57
Doesn't look like "UbuntuLTSP" is an actual category
12:57
<alkisg>
Wow... macros!! :)
12:59
No, but you could define one. You'd loose all of your comments / formatting, though
12:59
<CAN-o-SPAM>
ogra: ping
13:00
<Lns>
alkisg: What do you mean lose comments/formatting? Why would that happen?
13:00
<alkisg>
I mean that the list would be autogenerated, not manually edited along with comments for each page...
13:00
E.g. try to edit CategoryNetworking, you'll see this:
13:00
= List of pages in CategoryNetworking =
13:00
<<FullSearch(category:CategoryNetworking)>>
13:01
That's a list of all the networking pages, but without comments, like you do with UbuntuLTSP
13:02
<polytan>

using a new stage3
13:04
i'm not sure how it will become available yet.. you might have to manually download it
13:04
<Lns>
alkisg: Yeah, the main page should probably stay the same.. maybe have the category stuff in parallel since it's autogenerated?
13:05
of course that's duplicating.. hmm.
13:05
<alkisg>
Lns, maybe... I think we need a little more thinking! :)
13:05
<Lns>
yeah
13:05
<alkisg>
Searching is not a problem, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HelpOnSearching
13:05
Allows searching for example for LTSP + (networking or administration)
13:06
And generating a main page (or as many main pages as you like) with a script is no problem either
13:06
The problem would be with the very nice comments you have in the main page...
13:06ltsppbot has joined #ltsp
13:06
<Lns>
Right - but that'd be pretty ugly imho too
13:07
with no images/nice formatting
13:08
<alkisg>
Lns, you can leave the top image + the intro intact
13:08
I'm talking about automatically generating the UbuntuLTSP page
13:08
So, I think I have an idea
13:08polytan has quit IRC
13:08
<alkisg>
Take for example UbuntuLTSP/mypage
13:09
mypage belongs to these categories: categoryltsp, categoryubuntu8.10, and 8.04
13:10
So, a wget script can visit 5-6 pages (all the ubuntu versions + the ltsp one) and see which ltsp pages are specific to which versions
13:10
Then it can automatically generate the UbuntuLTSP page, with the top image and the intro AND with a nice table with rows = pages and columns = ubuntu versions
13:11
That leaves your nice comments out. *These* should be inside the pages, on the first line, so the script could automatically retrieve them
13:11
...or you could have the comments in a text file on your hard disk
13:12
as a way to specify which pages you think are good enough for UbuntuLTSP and which ones are to be left in CategoryLTSP
13:12
.
13:13
<Lns>
hrm...well all that is a bit beyond me =)
13:13
My main concern is this:
13:13
<alkisg>
Well, I can make the script, you just tell the people to use categories instead of "specific to 8.04 and 8.10"
13:14
<Lns>
When people actually navigate to the "main" page for help, they should be able to find exactly what they're looking for, without having to decipher any cryptic link names
13:14
<alkisg>
Well, UbuntuLTSP won't be cryptic at all, it'll be the same as it is now
13:14hersonls has joined #ltsp
13:15
<alkisg>
OK, let's get this one by one
13:15
<Lns>
alkisg: ok i got that
13:15
<alkisg>
Don't you think it's easier to use categories for marking a page as specific to 8.04 and 8.10, instead of writing it to a line or a tag?
13:16
<Lns>
alkisg: No, because I just cut/paste it. :)
13:16
I'm not aware of the FULL capabilities/benefits of categories (yet)
13:16
<alkisg>
Lns, yeah, but what if *I* make a page and I don't paste it that well?
13:17
<Lns>
alkisg: well that'd be the same as not putting it in the correct category, right?
13:17
<alkisg>
And there's also the added benefit that with CategoryLTSP the users would see *all* ltsp related documentation
13:17
Lns, no, because selecting from a list is less error-prone than writing a tag :)
13:18
<Lns>
alkisg: i'm going to need to look more into it - if there's a way you can demonstrate this without affecting the way the current wiki works, please do

ok, let me think about how I can demonstrate this
13:19
Do you have any special permissions? E.g., can you create an Ubuntu 6.06 category?

I think CategoryDocumentatino is the one most used

alkisg: I'm just wondering if it'd be worth it, really.. I dont' see a problem, though, in doing it.. I just don't know how much good it will do overall, since people will probably still be going to the main page

It'll make it easier for you, maintaining the main page?

Actually, the only difference is "adding to 3 categories" instead of "tagging for LTSP and 2 ubuntu versions"
13:36
So I don't think there is a problem, even if it's not used
13:36
Both of them = 2 lines copy/paste
13:36
<Lns>
Personally I don't see a problem with the way it's handled right now, and if categories aren't a popular way to find content on the wiki, it'd probably be a waste
13:37
<alkisg>
Lns, ok by me... :)

Since you can do searches for titles/text/whatever else as well

I do like that little yellow tag though ;)
13:38
<alkisg>
Lns, how can you search for all the pages specific to Ubuntu 8.04 and LTSP right now?
13:38
<Lns>
I don't
13:38
I go to the main UbuntuLTSP page
13:38
and it's hit/miss, like everyone else i'm sure
13:39
<alkisg>
But you can't see that info from the UbuntuLTSP page
13:39
<Lns>
correct
13:39nicoAMG has quit IRC
13:39
<alkisg>
That's what the script would do, it would cross reference the pages and build you a better UbuntuLTSP page
13:40
Anyway... :)
13:40
<Lns>
I don't mean to dismiss any ideas like categories, especially since i know so little about how they work.. but my personal stance right now is that if a page is good enough to get into UbuntuLTSP main page as a HOWTO/other, it's very minimal to format it like the others
13:40
and finding the versions on the main page would be simple enough through normal tags/whatever that doesn't involve something complex
13:40
of course complex to me is trivial to most others ;)
13:41
i do see the benefit of categories though, and it'd be easy to link to them on the main ubuntultsp page too
13:41
<alkisg>
Lns, I think I scared you with the script... :D :P
13:42
<Lns>
No, I could probably whip up a script too (i've done that to create a TB signature based off my latest blog titles) but it seems that if we "go away" for whatever reason, it's going to die off and nobody will know how to maintain it

13:49

that's useful too =)
13:49

And if you see the code, it's as simple as pasting "This page is specific to these ubuntu versions..."
13:50
<Lns>
alkisg: agreed.
13:50

Of course, creating an "UbuntuLTSP" template would be a good idea to get all the bits in there that we want

Lns, no, it's the other way around. You manually put it and *then* it belongs to a category!
13:51
<Lns>

13:51
so that's how you actually assign a page to a category... *lightbulb*
13:52
<alkisg>
So, ----
13:52
CategoryUbuntu804 CategoryUbuntu810 CategoryLTSP
13:52
would be what you needed to paste
13:52
<Lns>
alkisg: easy enough!
13:52

13:53
Without doing anything different from what you already do.
13:53

not "CategoryUbuntu8xx"

Because for ppl who nav. through the main page, they need to know first off what version it's for..looking at the footer won't be good enough i think

Then you need this on the header: <<Include(Software/804Template)>>

<Lns>
alkisg: yeah..well let me get these categories/tags going, i'll probably create a "template" page too so new pages can be easily added
14:04
alkisg: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/UpdatingChroot
14:05
<alkisg>
Yeap... but it also needs CategoryUbuntu804 at the bottom
14:05ltsppbot has joined #ltsp

<Lns>
alkisg: gotcha, that makes more sense than a new category "UbuntuLTSP804" I guess
14:06
<alkisg>
Lns, yeah, I believe so
14:06
<Lns>
Lemme see if you can have multiple templates for pages that belong to mult. versions
14:06
<alkisg>
I just added it
14:06
<Lns>
heh, saw that after hitting edit =p

<alkisg>
Lns, no, it's double work...
14:10
There has to be a better way
14:12
<Lns>
Too bad there's no Checkboxes in Editing a wiki page to simply refer to a specific version(s)
14:12
to add the necessary tags/etc
14:15
A workaround would be to simply have a template page on the main page that refers to all of the possible tags you'd need to correctly format the page you're creating/modifying
14:15
<alkisg>
Yes... or, the tabs on top (6.06, 7.04, 7.10, 8.04 etc) should also be valid for the community documentation
14:16
<Lns>
yeah

14:51
<stgraber>
Gadi:
14:52
12:45 < stgraber> Gadi: any reason in your branch to run my virtual script in all cases ? AFAIK it's only required for intel, that's why I added the hal test
14:53
<Gadi>
stgraber: my branch adds the X_VIRTUAL and X_VIRTUAL_AUTO options so it can be specified
14:53
your hack is an example of forcing a default for a particular driver
14:53
which is what I would prefer
14:54
eg, warren was concerned that some drivers would fail with it set
14:54
so, perhaps we don't set it automatically
14:54
<stgraber>
hmm, ok
14:54petre has quit IRC
14:55
<Gadi>
personally, I would prefer X_VIRTUAL_AUTO=True as default
14:55
<warren>
I'll test it
14:55
<Gadi>
and add overrides to make it false for particular broken drivers
14:55

I asked Q-FUNK to sell me a BUTTON for his thincans.
15:49
His company laughed at him.
15:50
<Gadi>
warren: thats funny - I asked Q-FUNK for the same thing
15:50
<warren>
Gadi: did you ask for a power button that actually requires no modification of the existing product?
15:50
Gadi: the button goes between the thincan and the DC-in. The button only cuts off power.
15:51
"The Missing Button" only $5 extra
15:53
<Gadi>
lol
15:53
no
15:53
I simply asked for a button
15:53
like an Easy button

how can I ask bzr what my uncommitted changes are?

bzr status
16:19
and to see em.. bzr diff (with no args)
16:19
<Gadi>
doesnt return anything
16:19
<johnny>
then you have no uncommitted changes :)
16:19
<Gadi>
hmm
16:20
<vagrantc>
Gadi: "bzr missing" will show you changes that haven't been pushed
16:20
<Gadi>
but when I try to: bzr merge ../some-other-branch
16:20
it says the other branch has uncommitted changes
16:20
<vagrantc>
bzr st ../some-other-branch
16:21
<Gadi>
oh, I see
16:21
I just went into someotherbranch
16:21
and did a bzr merge
16:21
because it was a branch of trunk
16:22
now, can I go back to trunk and merge this branch in
16:22
and then commit trunk?
16:22
or will that mess up history somehow?
16:22
<warren>
Gadi: if you want to be 100% sure
16:22
Gadi: in a separate directory, bzr clone ldm-trunk
16:22
cd ldm-trunk
16:22
bzr pull ../ldm-yourbranch
16:23
<vagrantc>
well, i'd rather people merged specific features ...
16:23
<warren>
Gadi: the OLPC people said they dropped GX2 because the CPU itself was buggy
16:23
<vagrantc>
though really, there's probably all sorts of preferences...
16:23
<warren>
Gadi: you haven't had problems there?
16:24
<vagrantc>
Gadi: you're trying to merge http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~gideon/ltsp/ltsp-trunk-screensessiond/ into ltsp-trunk ?
16:24
<Gadi>
vagrantc: yes
16:24
warren: no CPU issues
16:25
tho, OLPC uses the CPU differently than most
16:25
:)
16:25
<vagrantc>
Gadi: any uncommitted changes?
16:25
Gadi: last revision i have is 974
16:25
<Gadi>
now that I merged the current ltsp-trunk into ltrsp-trunk-screen-sessiond, I think it needs to be committed
16:25
to have my changes
16:25
right?
16:26
<vagrantc>
Gadi: shouldn't need to merge ltsp-trunk back into your branch
16:26
mostly creates needless diffs.
16:27
<Gadi>
so, should I commit my -screen-sessiond and push that to upstream
16:27
<vagrantc>
no
16:27
<Gadi>
and then pull my golden upstream dir from tehre?
16:28
but I did my work in -screen-sessiond, and then did bzr merge in there
16:28
so now, it should have my work + ltsp-trunk
16:28
(because I had pulled trunk to the newest version)
16:28
<vagrantc>
then you need to re-merge that back into the clean copy of ltsp-trunk.
16:29
<Gadi>
ok
16:29
so, I should go into trunk
16:29
<vagrantc>
instead, just merging your branch into ltsp-trunk would be cleaner
16:29
<Gadi>
and merge ../..-screen-session
16:29
right
16:29
I tried doing that at first
16:29
<vagrantc>
no need to constantly merge ltsp-trunk back into your feature branch
16:29
<Gadi>
but there were uncommitted changes
16:29
<vagrantc>
bzr shelve --all
16:30
<Gadi>
what does that do?
16:30
<vagrantc>
it "shelves" all uncommitted changes
16:30
<Gadi>
ok
16:30
<vagrantc>
you need bzrtools installed to use it
16:31
<Gadi>
ok
16:31
what should I do right now?
16:31
<vagrantc>
or if you don't care about loosing those changes... just bzr revert
16:31
<Gadi>
well, I care about my stuff
16:32
can bzr revert warn me about what its going to do?
16:32
<vagrantc>
i don't see any options for that

Gadi: move aside your current copy of ltsp-trunk, get a new one, and merge into that?

<vagrantc>
i.e. mv ltsp-trunk ltsp-trunk-tweaked ; bzr get ltsp-trunk-tweaked ltsp-trunk ; cd ltsp-trunk ; bzr merge /path/to/ltsp-trunk-screensessionFOO/
16:34
<Gadi>
oh, wait
16:34
I think I got it
16:35
<vagrantc>
although if you're already merged in ltsp-trunk, i guess you can leave it alone.
16:36* vagrantc risks confusion
16:36
<vagrantc>
ignore that last comment
16:36
<Gadi>
oh, before I commit this, I should modify my scripts to use run_parts instead of find
16:37
<vagrantc>
maybe
16:38brendan0powers has joined #ltsp
16:38elisboa has quit IRC
16:39
<vagrantc>
you could do it as part of the merge.... in a clean ltsp-trunk: bzr merge $somewhere/ltsp-trunk-screensessionfoo ; $EDITOR client/screen-x-common ; bzr di ... and then "bzr ci", if the changes look good
16:41brendan0powers has quit IRC
16:41
<vagrantc>
main thing is ensuring you aren't messing with an unclean ltsp-trunk.
16:42
basically, if you're at all unsure of what you're doing, you should keep a pristine ltsp-trunk that you never edit directly (except by merging other stuff into it).
16:43
<Gadi>
right
16:43
ok
16:43
I just pushed it
16:43
I think I did good
16:44
please check
16:44
:)
16:44
and dont yell
16:47
<vagrantc>
looks good :)
16:47
<stgraber>
vagrantc: I just sent the sync request for ltspfs, should be done soon. (It's actually the first time I use our script to request it so I'm not 100% sure it'll work :))

stgraber: there is one more patch you'll probably want from bzr, but i don't think it'll affect ubuntu since you're using older ltsp-client scripts
16:52
<Gadi>
whew
16:52
<vagrantc>
stgraber: and i'll probably upload a new version soon.
16:52
<stgraber>
well, as long as we don't have any delta for ltspfs it'll be auto-synced from debian until the end of December
16:52
then I can always ask for a manual sync from Debian
16:52
<vagrantc>
ah, cool.
