<vagrantc>
but it may require a dist-upgrade rather than a regular upgrade
00:01
Ryan52: near the bottom of debian-policy 7.6.1 it mentions something regarding conflicts
00:02
Ryan52: "it can only happen if they do not conflict or ..."
00:03
<Ryan52>
what does Replaces do then?
00:04
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: other than wholly replacing a package, it's not real clear to me...
00:08
Ryan52: seems like using "Breaks" might be more appropriate, once it's supported ...

<greenmang0>
cyberorg, do i need to have DNS server running for ltsp?
03:20
<cyberorg>
greenmang0, no, but it is nice if you have one
03:21
<greenmang0>
cyberorg, ok, actually ltsp install on debian doesn't install any dns package
03:21
but dnsmasq is listed on ltsp wiki
03:23
cyberorg, i actually read a wikipedia article about how ltsp works, and found nothing mentioned about DNS
03:25
<cyberorg>
i think dnsmasq is used in place of dhcpd
03:29
<greenmang0>
cyberorg, yeah, as mentioned on ltsp wiki
03:29
<cyberorg>
on suse we install dns server just to make setting things up simple
03:30
<greenmang0>
which one? dnsmasq?
03:30
<cyberorg>
named for dns
03:31
<greenmang0>
cyberorg, ok, bind9 you mean

03:33
<cyberorg>
named is just a DNS server

<yggdrasill_>
still no success with Xorg configuration
12:41
does anybody give me an Idea?
12:42
Scenario: fuji siemens server with ubuntu 8.04 installed and a video card Matrox g200
12:42
clients Fujy futro with ati radeon installed
12:42
monitor wide 1680x1050
12:43
in lts.conf CONFIGURE_X=true
12:43
and XSERVER set to radeon
12:43
No way.
12:43
Only vesa mode accepted at 1280x1024
12:44
any aidea?
12:44
<Gadi1>
yggdrasill_: the xorg log file on the client is your friend
12:45
<yggdrasill_>
hmmm.... I saw no relevant info there...
12:45
<mushroomblue>
yggdrasill_: what's the video chipset?
12:45
<yggdrasill_>
I also tried to install the proprietary ati drivers
12:46
on the image but got errors
12:46
the chipset is ati radeon x1250
12:46
<Gadi1>
yggdrasill_: if you cannot get a display, xorg log should tell you why
12:47
<mushroomblue>
yggdrasill_: yeah, at that point, it's really not an LTSP issue; it's X-related. :)
12:47Remaille has joined #ltsp
12:47
<yggdrasill_>
i was suppose so...
12:48
<mushroomblue>
anyone run an LTSP server in Virtualbox?
12:48
<yggdrasill_>
I did in my tests
12:48
<alkisg>
mushroomblue: yeah, I've tried it once...
12:48
<mushroomblue>
I'm trying to rule-out that being my problem; forwarding a USB printer isn't working.
12:49
<Gadi1>
mushroomblue: did you set up a print queue?
12:49
ltsp only makes it look like a jetdirect printer
12:49
<mushroomblue>
I did.
12:49
wait.
12:49
so it'll be /dev/usblp0 locally only?
12:49
<Gadi1>
it does not set up the queue
12:50
huh?
12:50
<yggdrasill_>
gadil, but you mean the xlog on the server /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
12:50
<Gadi1>
yggdrasill_: no on the client
12:50
server is irrelevant
12:50
<yggdrasill_>
I see, so you mean the var/log of image..
12:51
<mushroomblue>
Gadi1: I was expecting to see a /dev/usblp0 (or /dev/usb/lp0) being forwarded to the server. I'm assuming I'm totally wrong?
12:51
<Gadi1>
yggdrasill_: you should install ssh on the client image, and give a root password, so you can ssh into the client with the server set to radeon and see why it failed in the client xorg logs
12:51
<yggdrasill_>
virtual box still have problem in usb forwarding
12:51
<Gadi1>
mushroomblue: indeed
12:51
<mushroomblue>
awesome.
12:52
<Gadi1>
mushroomblue: all we do is redirect /dev/usblp0 as a jetdirect printer (ip of client: port 9100)
12:52
<yggdrasill_>
vmware 2.0 server solved the usb forwarding and in my case works perfectly
12:52
<Gadi1>
so, you need to, on the server, add a printer, type jetdirect, host=ip of client, port = 9100
12:53
and treat the printer as a network printer
12:53
<mushroomblue>
Gadi1: thank you. that makes me feel way less angry about life. I spent the last day trying to figure that out. :)
12:53
<Gadi1>
think of it as having a little HP JetDirect box connected to the printer
12:53
hehe - no worries
12:53
<yggdrasill_>
but listen, to install something on the image... you shold move to //opt/ltsp/i386 and chroot this, isnt't it?
12:53
<Gadi1>
I assume the docs are rough around the edges on this one
12:53
:)
12:53
<mushroomblue>
oh god yes.
12:54
<Gadi1>
yggdrasill_: do this:
12:54
sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386
12:54
apt-get update
12:54
export LTSP_HANDLE_DAEMONS=False
12:54
apt-get install ssh
12:54
passwd
12:54
(enter root password)
12:54
passwd -u root
12:55
exit
12:55
sudo ltsp-update-image
12:55
then, reboot the client
12:55
<yggdrasill_>
ok
12:55
<Gadi1>
with no XSERVER or CONFIGURE_X entries
12:55
and see what it does by default
12:55
and by see, I mean ssh into the client as root
12:56
and look at /var/log/Xorg.*.log
12:56
<yggdrasill_>
i see....
12:56
great
12:56
thank you for the info.
12:56
<Gadi1>
no problem
12:57
I find with Xorg's major shift, I am debugging video drivers a lot these days
12:57
:)
12:57
<yggdrasill_>
but if you chroot to /opt...
12:57
<mushroomblue>
major shift?
12:57
<yggdrasill_>
you have no ltsp-update-image available cause it it on different root
12:57
<Gadi1>
yeah, Xorg 1.5 changed a lot of things
12:57
and drivers had to adapt
12:57
some adapted better than others
12:58
:P
12:58
yggdrasill_: note the "exit"
12:58
<mushroomblue>
hah.
12:58
<Gadi1>
usually the ones that are the most open and most popular adapted better

13:12
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: Yep...
13:13
<Gadi1>
thats weird
13:13
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: maybe youe heard about this enviroment... Do you remember Marlon?
13:13
<Gadi1>
I am trying to think what would explain that
13:13
which marlon?
13:13
<Guaraldo>
Marlon Dutra
13:13
<Gadi1>
sure
13:13
mfdutra
13:13
right?
13:14
<Guaraldo>
So... I work to him...
13:14
exactly
13:14
<Gadi1>
hmm...
13:15
when it unmounts, does the ltspfs mount go away?
13:15
in the server's /proc/mounts
13:16
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: Yes...
13:17
<Gadi1>
does it happen with all usb sticks or just this one?
13:18
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: Sometimes, plugging pen-drive again corrects the problem, othertimes, it doesn't...
13:19
<Gadi1>
is it an unpartitioned stick?
13:19
that is, does it come up as /dev/sda and not /dev/sda1
13:19
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: All sticks that those old udev finds... there are some sticks that can't be found by udev...

We'll have to think a way to make LTSP5 be expansive to reach sistems like this (clusters, more than 1000 clients, and so)...
13:22
load/users balance...
13:22
things like that...
13:22
<Gadi1>
have you looked at ltsp-cluster?
13:23
stgraber's guys deploy ltsp in just that way
13:23
<Guaraldo>
But for now I need to make it work fast...
13:23
<Gadi1>
1000s of clients, etc
13:24
<Guaraldo>
Gadi1: I'll test this..
13:24
<Gadi1>
yeah, not sure about the usb stick problem
13:24
back then, we were using lbus+ltspfs
13:24
not sure how fragile the whole thing was
13:27Gadi1 is now known as Gadi
13:28
<Guaraldo>
Gadi: I'm sure it is nearly a workarround... :-D Just kidding...
13:30
Gadi: Used to work very well untill we change to Ubuntu 8.04
13:30
<Gadi>
hmm... may be a nautilus issue?
13:30
try accessing the drive from the terminal
13:30
and see if it unmounts
13:31
<Guaraldo>
Gadi: The same thing occurs on rdesktop enviroment
13:32
<Gadi>
are there a lot of files on the drive?
13:33
if there are a lot of images, I seem to remember issues with graphical file browsers and creating thumbnails and such
13:33
<rjune_>
!seen cliebow
13:33

rjune_: cliebow was last seen in #ltsp 1 week, 0 days, 23 hours, 58 minutes, and 24 seconds ago: <cliebow> there is ome Great stuff there!

Gadi, you're up new england way, do you know if the maple season is three months long?
13:34

13:34

13:34

13:35
ambitious

ok, i can boot into the ltsp greeter
15:06
but when i enter username and password of a user on the server it stalls for 30s with
15:06
verifying password. please wait
15:06
and then a no repsonse from server, restarting
15:06
<alkisg>
knipwim: distro, version?
15:06
<knipwim>
gentoo, ltsp 5
15:06
<johnny>
and sshd is running on the server?
15:07
<knipwim>
yep
15:07
<johnny>
check your ldm.log on the client
15:08
<knipwim>
ah
15:08
expect saw: The authenticity of host '192.168.0.52 (192.168.0.52)' can't be established.
15:08
<johnny>
hmm.. it should have copied the keys over
15:08
<knipwim>
might have something to do with it
15:08
<johnny>
yes it does
15:09
it means the client doesn't have the server keys
15:10
run ltsp-update-sshkeys
15:10
it sounds like your install got interrupted
15:10
which according to your bug comments.. is true
15:10
i really need to fix the ebuild for ldm to require iso-codes

15:18
my first ltsp boot!
15:20
<johnny>
knipwim, i've been really hoping for pieces of gentoo itself that we need to stabilize before really pushing forward and dealing with certain issues
15:20
like udev 135 (or above) being stabilized
15:20
and openrc being stable

I want to create a wineuser to install wine programs, and all other users to be able to see his .wine directory as writable, but any changes to it to be discarted. What do I need? tmpfs and unionfs?

wine still doesn't have a way to install programs in say /opt?

why not just make the ~/.wine reg files look elsewhere for the progs..

johnny: it would be difficult to manually change the ~/.wine reg files for all installed programs. No, I don't think wine supports installing programs in /opt, unless one manually specifies that with env WINEPREFIX=/opt/...
