on the server itself it connects and from another computer using terminal. but it asks about some rsa key

where are the localization packages for firefox? My chroot firefox is in English, my server firefox is Portuguese... I tryed to use the same apt repo but them it says the firefox is broken ...
07:22
<alkisg>
maginot: Ubuntu, right? What does this give you? cat /etc/default/locale /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/default/locale
07:24vvinet has joined #ltsp
07:25
<maginot>
alkisg, /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/default/locale doesn't exist but I have put the same that is on /etc/default/locale in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/profile
07:25
LANG="pt_BR.UTF-8"
07:25
LANGUAGE="pt_BR:pt:en"
07:26
<alkisg>
maginot: 8.10 installation with the desktop cd?
07:26
<maginot>
yep
07:26
<alkisg>
OK, a friend of mine had the same problem...
07:26
You need to do ltsp-update-image to get the language settings right, but I don't know if you have to install some firefox locales or what...
07:27
<maginot>
before on 7.10 and I think that in 8.04 I have pt_br localization packages for firefox... now I cant seen to find them
07:27
ltsp-update-image just seting the locale variables doesnt work
07:27
I think I have to install some lang package
07:28
<alkisg>
My friend saw greek interface in firefox only by changing this file and doing ltsp-update-image.... that's what I'm reporting, don't know any more details.
07:29
<maginot>
Hmmm
07:29
well, I copied locale to chroot location
07:29
I will give a try now

<csaba_>
hi
07:42
may I ask for some advice?
07:42
<maginot>
just ask =)
07:42
<csaba_>
well, I have deployed an LTSP setup in a high school
07:42
with 1 server and 22 clients
07:43
using ubuntu
07:43
<maginot>
what ubuntu version ?
07:43
<csaba_>
now I would like to add more servers and clients
07:43
and would like to keep the management centralized
07:43
it is ubuntu 8.04 lternate Cd
07:44
what is the best approach?
07:44
<maginot>
that depends of what you have in mind ... are you trying to have all users in just one server?
07:44
<csaba_>
I want users and home dirs be accessible from any client
07:45
no, I said I want to add more servers
07:45
so that they share the load
07:45
<maginot>
Hmm
07:45
<csaba_>
it already works with one server-to 22 clients
07:46
any ideas?
07:47
<maginot>
you know, I have the same question, sparing the load trhough multple servers
07:47
I know that you can have several servers each with its own dhcp and serving for the clients that are added in dhcpd.conf
07:48
lets see if some of the experts here have anyidea
07:49
<cyberorg>
maginot, ltsp already supports load balancing via get_hosts script, see documentation in the topic
07:50
<maginot>
thanks. =)
07:50
<cyberorg>
you need shared /home and openLDAP server
07:50
<maginot>
I imagine that
07:50
cyberorg, there is any need of both servers be using the same ubuntu version ?
07:50
<cyberorg>
here is how it works on opensuse http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Cluster
07:51
maginot, no
07:51
<maginot>
so basicly is a nfs /home share and a openldap sharing the information
07:51
<cyberorg>
but users will not get same experience when they log into another/older version
07:51
may be their settings could get messed up
07:52
<maginot>
I see...
07:52
<cyberorg>
this is in pipeline http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Fatclient/Cluster, diskless cluster nodes ;)
07:52
<maginot>
alkisg, just updating default locale in chroot didnt solved.. I will look a workaround
07:53
<cyberorg>
maginot, very simple load balancing can be done with LDM_SERVER variable in lts.conf
07:53
<maginot>
I was going to research that, but since csaba_ come with the question ...
07:53
Hmm
07:54
I confess that I did not read all the manual yet, hope to finish this weekend
07:54
but, thanks... Im looking the links now
07:55
I have two servers here, I was thinking about using the older for something else, but maybe its a good oportunite to make a load balance... I think it good to backup too
07:55
<cyberorg>
start with this first http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LtspDocumentationUpstream
07:56
<maginot>
yes, I've print the pdf version
07:56
<csaba_>
wow, sounds interesting
07:56
many thanks , i will look into it
07:57
is there a step-by-step like paper on this
07:57
perhaps with only the major steps

what is spected to happen when using for example LOCAL_APPS_MENU_ITEM = firefox ?
09:49gate_keeper_ has quit IRC
09:50
<stgraber>
if you have: LOCAL_APPS_MENU = True
09:51
and LOCAL_APPS_MENU_ITEMS = firefox
09:51
(not ITEM, ITEMS)
09:51
and have firefox installed in your chroot
09:51
and a recent enough LTSP with localapps activated, your firefox in your menu will be a local one instead of a remote one
09:57
<bud313>
stgraber, Does LOCAL_APPS_MENU = True work with kiwi-ltsp? Also do you put that in the lts.conf?
09:58Subhodip has joined #ltsp
09:59
<cyberorg>
bud313, it should, if it does not there is a bug somewhere, after all LTSP is exactly same on all distros
10:00
<bud313>
cyberorg, Awesome I will try it right now.
10:00
<cyberorg>
bud313, you wont have to install firefox, it is already installed and you should have all plugins available too :)
10:01
bud313, you can add note to this http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Localapps after your test

during installation with ubuntu alternate CD (LTSP server) I got an error saying that I have to config manually the devices DHCP should listen on eth0, how should I modify /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf to do so?
10:34
?
10:39
<bud313>
benste, I don't have enough knowledge to help you directly but does this page help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=943518
10:41
<benste>
bud313 I'll try when I get back my GUI :-)
10:42
<bud313>
I know typically when I have a problem when setting up a dhcp server it is just that their isn't a network face setup with the correct ip addresss. Then I just configure one and restart dhcp
10:43
<alkisg>
benste: you only have 1 nic? the alternate cd assumes you have 2 nics...
10:43
<benste>
alkisg I use only one NIC - cause I'm runinng all in a VM
10:44
i remeber from previous version that I just had to insert one line somthing with listen on eth0
10:44
<maginot>
stgraber, I have everything you said ... but starting from menu is not loading localy ...
10:45
<alkisg>
benste: no, you just have to use a static ip and ensure that the dhcp ranges in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf are within this ip subnet
10:45
benste: but you could also use 2 nics in the vm and everything would be done automatically...
10:45
<benste>
it wasn't auto configured in 8.10 using one eth0 and wlan0
10:46
but hold on a minute, I'm just trying to get my GUI back :-)
10:47
<alkisg>
I think wlan doesn't count, it needs two ethX... k

15:08* Gadi waves to vagrantc
15:08
<vagrantc>
Gadi: finally getting around to hopefully uploading your last ltspfs commits to debian :)
15:08
<Gadi>
great!
15:08
<vagrantc>
just gotta test my one patch, and then i'll upload.
15:08
Gadi: though it still doesn't work properly with localmounts and cdpinger
15:09
<Gadi>
hey, do you have any LTSP servers out there running in VMs?
15:09
serving up to real users?
15:09
<vagrantc>
Gadi: only on VMs
15:09
all xen, for the real users
15:09
<Gadi>
any limitations imposed by the VM that may cap the number of users?
15:09* vagrantc was hoping to upgrade those to virtual users as well, someday
15:10
<vagrantc>
Gadi: not that i'm aware of
15:10
<Gadi>
I know that, for example, vmware server can only use 2 CPUs
15:10
and others have limits on network throughput
15:11
<vagrantc>
i use all xen, virtualbox, and occasionally qemu ... all of which don't tend to put arbitrary limits on things.
15:12
<Gadi>
its not software limits I am worried about
15:12
it is technical limits of the VM engine
15:12
<vagrantc>
xen doesn't have a limit on CPUs, for sure. you can even specify more virtual CPUs than you actually have.
15:12
<Gadi>
in other words, don't use a VM that sees only 2 CPU cores on a quad-core Xeon
15:12
:)
15:13
<vagrantc>
if you've got a quad-core xeon, my guess is KVM would be your best bet, though i haven't tried it.
15:14
since we don't get much, if any hardware that has the in-hardware virtualization support
15:14
<Gadi>
yeah - unfortunately, the tools for the lay-admin are lacking
15:16
<ltsppbot>
"vagrantc" pasted "one last ltspfs patch before upload, hopefully" (30 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/297
15:16
<vagrantc>
Gadi: how's that look to you? ^^
15:16
Gadi: i'm very happy with xen
15:17
but maybe the tools for it aren't the sort of tools you're looking for
15:18DarKnesS_WolF has quit IRC
15:19
<Gadi>
1st: code looks good and definitely shorter
15:19
I would keep some comments, tho
15:19
just so we know what we're doing there
15:20
<vagrantc>
i tried to keep the comments, but i guess i didn't keep enough
15:20
<Gadi>
2nd: with the VM stuff, I'm looking for something easy to administer and easy to teach others to administer
15:21
<vagrantc>
Gadi: 2nd: namely, GUI interfaces?
15:21
<Gadi>
gui helps
15:21
but easy cli is ok
15:22Subhodip has quit IRC
15:23
<vagrantc>
Gadi: suggestions for improving the comments?
15:24bud3131 has joined #ltsp

15:57

:)
15:57
<vagrantc>
Gadi: didn't test USB or floppies
15:57
i may have tested at some point
15:57
<Gadi>
oh
15:57
<vagrantc>
but forget also
15:57
i'll test after i upload, since it's a non-default feature anyways.
15:58
<Gadi>
great
15:58
maybe we can fix it then, too
15:58* vagrantc loves uploading 3 new upstream versions in a single day
15:58* Gadi noticed a lot of tagging
15:59
<Gadi>
have there been changes between these tags?
15:59
or are they only for pkging purposes?
15:59
<vagrantc>
Ryan52 did a bunch of minimal to non-changes
16:00
i also did a tag of ltsp that only really added a single language translation
16:00
did rounds of translation updates for ldm and ltsp
16:00japerry has joined #ltsp
16:00
<vagrantc>
and finally got cyberorg's patches in upstream
16:01
the NOMAD stuff
16:01
<Gadi>
ah
16:02
<vagrantc>
but overall, everything has been pretty stable.
16:03
<Gadi>
that means we aren't doing our job
16:03
:(
16:03
<vagrantc>
pfft
16:03
<Gadi>
I guess thats why we need a hackfest
16:03
:)
16:03
<vagrantc>
it's working too well- quick, let's break things!
16:04
<Gadi>
the way of the world, my friend
16:06
<Lns>
stupid stable software, nothing to point your finger at
16:07* vagrantc suspects there are pleny of bugs in ltsp
16:10
<Lns>
See that's microsoft's whole thing! fix stuff, then break stuff. Sell the broken stuff, get people to complain, release SP1.
16:10
I think we should adopt that marketing plan

<vagrantc>
seem to be experiencing problems with remote pulseaudio in debian/testing ...
18:39
just booted a thin client on squeeze and it started squealing horrendously
18:39
<Ryan52>
my laptop does that for all sound since I dist-upgraded :( (I only do that every few months, tho)
18:39
<vagrantc>
i noticed that sound wasn't working in virtualbox ...
18:39
<Ryan52>
so maybe it's unrelated.
18:40* vagrantc tries the same setup with lenny
18:41
<Ryan52>
but at least the server part works...my (other) squeezish server is plugged into my speakers, and my fedora system plays music through it.
18:41
and I copied and pasted the pulse audio command directly from ltsp's source ;)
18:42staffencasa has quit IRC
18:43
<vagrantc>
there were some fairly recent changes added to the pulseaudio commandline options ... not sure if it's related or not.
18:46
always a good idea to test with real hardware ...
18:57
hrm. well the squealing sounds still happen with ltsp 5.1.64 on lenny ...
18:57Lns has quit IRC
18:57* vagrantc looks up the changes ...
18:59* vagrantc wonders if it is ltsp-trunk 1142 ...
19:01
<vagrantc>
might also be the recent changes with the dynamic volume setting code ...
19:01
even kicks in with SOUND=False
19:10
seems to be setting all channels to 90% volume is the culprit
19:10
setting VOLUME=10 worked without squeal
19:11
ah, it's the MIC channel.

19:13* Ryan52 thinks that that should default to zero..

hey guys, i'd like to have my mother's computer run as a thin client using my computer as the server, is it possible to do this without my computer running a dhcp server?

how to do ltsp5 on debian5.0 lenny without internet connection?
21:36
when i try to run
21:36
ltsp-build-client --mirror file:///cdrom
21:36
it gives the following error:

vagrantc: would it be horrible for us to put a debian mirror in all of the pkg-ltsp debian/watch files?
22:24* Ryan52 doesn't like the "upstream found version is lower than version in unstable (a bug in the watch file?)"
22:26
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: it won't work anyways
22:27
Ryan52: well, it will work from the commandline, but not for DEHS
22:27* vagrantc is using a thin client to fsck an external USB drive ...
22:28
<Ryan52>
what about DDPO?
22:28
or will it completely break DEHS?
22:29
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: what's DDPO ? :)
22:30
<Ryan52>
http://qa.debian.org/developer.php
22:30
<vagrantc>
i believe that just polls DEHS
22:30
Ryan52: what i've noticed is that even when fedora or ubuntu has a newer version, DEHS just grabs the first one it finds.
22:31* vagrantc still pines for an upstream upload location
22:32* Ryan52 would like that very much
22:32* Ryan52 thinks that it could even be automated from when the repo is tagged..
22:32
<Ryan52>
or we could make something like "sf.net" or githubredir.debian.net...tho that's overkill for us :)
22:33
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: something that polls the various *-trunk branches, and puts up a URL that we can grab wouldn't be too difficult.
22:33
Ryan52: i've filed bugs to be able to do that with launchpad
22:34
hrm. the ltspfs local mounting still behaves wonky.
22:35* vagrantc suspects some race condition
22:35
<Ryan52>
it also wouldn't be too difficult to just make a place for upstream tarballs ;)
22:35
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: well, fedora doesn't even use tarballs, does it?
22:35
<Ryan52>
yes it does.
22:36
bzip2, but ya.
22:36* vagrantc wonders why warren gave me a url to a different location
22:37
<vagrantc>
it at least gives me the ability to poll, but didn't have a tarball that i could look at.
22:37
maybe the tarball is buried inside a .srpm or something?
22:38
<Ryan52>
until you're allowed to use format 3.0 it doesn't really matter, does it?
22:38
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: makes it hard to give it a URL for uscan
22:39
<Ryan52>
hm. lemme check where it's downloadable from.
22:39
there's makefile targets that automate this all, so I don't pay much attention to it ;)
22:41* vagrantc ponders uploading ltspfs 0.5.11-2 to experimental to resolve the one outstanding bug: http://bugs.debian.org/454478
22:41
<vagrantc>
well, the one reported bug ...
22:42
<Ryan52>
vagrantc: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/ltsp/
22:42
strange, strange structure..
22:42
<vagrantc>
exactly.
22:42
<Ryan52>
ah.
22:43
that's what you're using?
22:43
<vagrantc>
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/ltspfs/
22:43
that's what i'm using
22:43
what warren told me to use
22:44
<Ryan52>
ya. the second one is what's been uploaded, the first one is what's been uploaded to the binary source file repository.
22:44
<vagrantc>
but the URL you have looks better.
22:44* Ryan52 thinks that this whole
22:44
<Ryan52>
thing is strange
22:44
<vagrantc>
key question is how often will it change format.
22:45
warren assured me the kojipkgs URL wouldn't change much, if ever

he probably only said that because a script he uses on his VPS uses it and he complains really loudly. :)
22:46
<vagrantc>
heh
22:47
debian's ahead of all the other distros in upstream versions for once
22:48
of course, only in unstable
22:49
<Ryan52>
why haven't you uploaded the new ltspfs?
22:49
<vagrantc>
Ryan52: just uploaded today
22:50
it's current with trunk
22:50
<Ryan52>
o i c
22:50
<vagrantc>
i didn't upload ltspfs 0.5.10, because it had a number of regressions from 0.5.9, and i wanted to ensure they were fixed before uploading.
22:50
<Ryan52>
and they weren't I take it? :)
22:51
oh, nevermind.
22:51
<vagrantc>
and they're fixed in 0.5.11 ... though local mounting still has some wonkiness, it's less wonky than 0.5.10

how to give more than one mirror in the  ltsp-build-client command?
23:30
<vagrantc>
ibmanoj: --early-mirror and --extra-mirror
23:31
each take a comma-separated list of mirrors ... i.e. --extra-mirror 'http://foo.bar/debian lenny main,http://baz.bat/something-else UNRELEASED/'

23:54
ibmanoj: you might also have to add --accept-unsigned-packages, if the DVD's do not have Release.gpg files
