<cyberorg>
hi nubae
06:21
<nubae1>
hiya... I've just installed suse from the link u gave me, and I'm setting up ltsp
06:21
from what I understand the images are downloaded, not created?
06:21nubae has quit IRC
06:22
<cyberorg>
cool, start terminal, su -, easy-ltsp > kiwi > prebuildt image, that is all that is required
06:22
everything required is already in there
06:22
mark the ethernet device you are using to serve ltsp as "internal zone" in firewall
06:22
<nubae1>
ok... I need my ip range to be 192.168 though
06:23
my router already reserves 10.0 for the other interface
06:23
<cyberorg>
nubae1, you can have whatever you like, set up using yast2 lan
06:23
<nubae1>
I did that, but easy ltsp seems to want something different... oh wait... I see u can change it
06:23
never mind
06:24
kinda silly u need to enter the changes again though
06:24
<cyberorg>
http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Quick_start/Easy-LTSP
06:25
easy-ltsp will detect device that does not have default gw assign to it as ltsp device, if you have network configured correctly easy-ltsp will set up everything right
06:26
if you have to change easy-ltsp recommendation mean network is not setup properly
06:26
<nubae1>
so far so good, but its telling me I have the wrong subnet, which I know I dont...
06:26
<cyberorg>
pastebin ifconfig, cat /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp
06:26
<nubae1>
192.168.0.254 is the ip of the ltsp server, subnet should be 255.255.255.0
06:27
sorry netmask not subnet
06:27
why is it telling me thats wrong?
06:27
<cyberorg>
pastebin ifconfig, cat /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp
06:27
<nubae1>
ok
06:30
http://pastebin.be/17771
06:30
http://pastebin.be/17772
06:31
<cyberorg>
this one is wrong there DHCP_SUBNET="192.168.0.0"
06:31
you dont have any interface configured with 192.xxxx
06:31
<nubae1>
well I do, both in yast and easy ltsp
06:32
<cyberorg>
http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Quick_start#Step_One:_Configure_Network_interface
06:32
ifconfig does not show it so it is not configured
06:32
<nubae1>
yeah ifconfig doesn't show it, but its in yast
06:32
<cyberorg>
you dont have to configure anything in easy-ltsp manually
06:33
follow Configure_Network link and check ifconfig again
06:33
<nubae1>
im restarting network services
06:33
<cyberorg>
rcnetwork restart
06:33
activate device is set at "boot time"?
06:33
<nubae1>
yeah now eth0 dissapeared completely..
06:33
maybe not
06:34
<cyberorg>
so dont edit easy-ltsp config, set up network correctly and run easy-ltsp > kiwi > prebuilt image again :)
06:35
<nubae1>
ah, it was set to never
06:35
now its up
06:36
<cyberorg>
now what does easy-ltsp show?
06:36
it should show all configuration correctly, it will take the device that does not have default gw attached
06:36
<nubae1>
yup
06:36
all working
06:37
<cyberorg>
cool :)
06:37
boot up clients, then you can run some tests
06:37
btw, remove/change passwords of linux1-5 accounts
06:38
those were test accounts for live DVD, i need to clean that up in next update, it is fixed in "unstable" iso which is now in the repo
06:38
<nubae1>
yeah domain is set to digitalairlines.com too :-)
06:39
<cyberorg>
that you need to change to whatever you got, you can edit /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp directly
06:39
<nubae1>
yeah I did, just a weird default
06:39
<cyberorg>
it is not if you know the story behind it ;)
06:40
when you change anything in /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp, run kiwi-ltsp-setup -c for changes to apply
06:40
<nubae1>
ok dhpc doesn't seem to be running
06:41
though easy-ltsp setup said it was
06:41
at least netstat doesnt show it
06:41
<cyberorg>
pastebin output from kiwi-ltsp-setup -c
06:41
rcdhcpd status should say if it is running
06:42
<nubae1>
hmm ok it is
06:42
then something else is wrong, thin client is not picking anything up
06:42
let me check cables
06:42
<cyberorg>
firewall, internal zone?
06:43
<nubae1>
does opensuse come default with firewall on?
06:44
<cyberorg>
yes, that is why we have to mark device we are using to serve ltsp(eth0) as "internal zone"
06:45
<nubae1>
ok, in firewall settings now... where do I set that?
06:45
broadcast?
06:46
<cyberorg>
http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Quick_start#Step_One:_Configure_Network_interface
06:46
see pictures ^^ :)
06:47
<nubae1>
gotcha
06:47
<cyberorg>
even in yast2 firewall, when you click on interface you can set them to internal/external/dmz
06:48
you can do rcnetwork restart after that if the settings don't apply
06:50
<nubae1>
coolio
06:50
was my router
06:50
all working now
06:50
so, nice to see thincan works out of the box
06:50
<cyberorg>
i am quite proud of this live DVD :)
06:51
<nubae1>
so instructions are a little bit different than ubuntu/debian, but still quite easy
06:51
<cyberorg>
you can check out italc, nomad, AOE etc
06:51
<nubae1>
yeah it looks good
06:51
what is AOE?
06:51
<cyberorg>
instead of NBD you can use AOE - ata over ethernet http://en.opensuse.org/Category:LTSP
06:51
<nubae1>
oh... never heard of that
06:52
<cyberorg>
just change IMAGETYPE to AOE in /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp and run kiwi-ltsp-setup -c, to switch ;)
06:52
<nubae1>
I am curious about nomad...
06:52
<cyberorg>
if you do USE_NOMAD="1" LDM will use rdesktop instead of ssh for login
06:53
<nubae1>
so with that, if u loose network connection on the client, it doesn affect it right=
06:53
?
06:55
<cyberorg>
of course network is required, nut if you lose it, user can resume from where they left
06:55
*but
06:55
<nubae1>
yeah thats gerat
06:55
great
06:56
what would be nice is to adapt that even more so that when connection is lost, local desktop takes over
06:56
for laptops and the like
06:56
<cyberorg>
check out local icewm too, you can run entire session as a local app
06:57
<nubae1>
how about sugar?
06:57
<cyberorg>
install it on the server http://en.opensuse.org/Sugar unfortunately i haven't got much time for it, so unless someone takes on it is not going to be too good
06:58
<nubae1>
whats missing?
06:58
<cyberorg>
once you install it, sugar will be available on all clients
06:58
collaboration stuff, you'll see when you install
07:01
but first check out all the coolness and do a thorough review, tell me whats missing, you need added, could be improved etc :)
07:01
<nubae1>
in regular client u mean
07:01
hmmm, just tried to login and it threw me back to ldm
07:02
<cyberorg>
as what user?
07:02
<nubae1>
user I created ltsp
07:02
what groups are required?
07:02
<cyberorg>
defaults are fine
07:03
check if sshd is running, rcsshd status, and see /var/log/messages on the server
07:03
<nubae1>
weird then... it tries to login... I get the x cursor, and then it throws me out to ldm
07:04
I'll tail the lof
07:04
log
07:04
<cyberorg>
pastebin /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp and output of kiwi-ltsp-setup -c please
07:05
and /srv/tftpboot/KIWI/lts.conf
07:05
<nubae1>

Apr 12 14:03:52 linux-paqp sshd[15167]: subsystem request for sftp
07:05
thats the log
07:05
<cyberorg>
how did you create user?
07:05
<nubae1>
useradd
07:05
<cyberorg>
on suse, you do useradd -m username
07:05
<nubae1>
yeah I know
07:06
<cyberorg>
without -m there is no /home/username
07:06
ok, get me those files, and try to ssh -X into the box from somewhere else
07:06
<nubae1>
ok, let me try and create through gui
07:08
ok, I must have not used -m
07:08
I thought I did
07:09
<cyberorg>
you can always create alias if you are used to using just useradd
07:09
<nubae1>
yeah, I am, but need to learn the suse way
07:09
my new job is running a altix SGI supercomputer running sles
07:09
<cyberorg>
we discoverd suse's useradd is special, it handles ldap users too
07:10
<nubae1>
I need to look at suse's ldap implementation actually
07:10
<cyberorg>
required links for that is here: http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Fatclient
07:11
it is quite simple, like our ltsp implementation ;)
07:12
<nubae1>
I guess thats an either or scenario right? what about running fat together with slim?
07:13
<cyberorg>
you can serve multiple AOE images, fat/ltsp together
07:13
take is easy, there are tons of stuff to discover :)
07:13
<nubae1>
:-)
07:14
<cyberorg>
multiple AOE with cluster is already in production, intelliant/shrek is using it
07:15
<nubae1>
well, so far I'm impressed... looks very nice
07:15
did u get my mail with the edu apps?
07:16
<cyberorg>
yups, there are lot of them installed in your server already, check them out
07:16
<nubae1>
yeah I can see that :-)
07:16
<cyberorg>
our edu repo is over 6G already, there would be very few apps that might be missing
07:17
<nubae1>
yeah just content creation tools for teachers mostly
07:17
lke jclic, salasaga
07:17
<cyberorg>
btw, check out italc, it should work out of box, add your admin user to italc group, log out and back in, or run italc-launcher as root
07:17
<nubae1>
need to make keys
07:17
it just complained about old keys not working
07:18
<cyberorg>
someone is on to jclic, others i dont know
07:18
no, dont make keys
07:18
<nubae1>
ok? then it wont start
07:18
<cyberorg>
user needs to be in italc group or run as root
07:18
italc-launcher
07:18
<nubae1>
oh right
07:19
<cyberorg>
its got stgraber's auto detection magic included :)
07:20
on live DVD it just works, i've put launcher icon on the desktop :)
07:20
<nubae1>
no authentication keys or old ones were broken I get
07:21
<cyberorg>
even as root?
07:21
<nubae1>
Sun Apr 12 14:19:41 2009: [critical] privateDSAKey::load( ... ): could not open file /etc/italc/keys/private/teacher/key
07:21
Sun Apr 12 14:19:46 2009: [critical] privateDSAKey::sign( ... ): invalid k
07:21
yep
07:21
<cyberorg>
open terminal , su - > italc-launcher
07:22
<nubae1>
key doesnt exist
07:22
yeah I did that, thats how I got the above
07:22
teacher/key doesnt exist
07:22
<cyberorg>
hmm, strange, let me do full installation and see whats up with that, you can create new keys then
07:23
<nubae1>
k...
07:28
yeah italc runs nice... autodetection and all
07:29
<cyberorg>
cool, i need to figure out what happened to keys on transfer from live DVD to hard disk
07:31
btw all the paths are symlinked so lts.conf or the nbd image can still be found in place people reading the upstream docs expect
07:39
<nubae1>
oh thats good
07:40
that fixes some of the unhappiness amongst devs :-)
07:41
apparmor... is that like se linux on redhat?
07:43
I'm gonna write an article at nubae.com about your livedvd
07:45
<cyberorg>
why would devs be unhappy about how suse puts all their servers under /srv :)
07:46
yes apparmor is for human beings what selinux is for geeks
07:46
i disable apparmor too
07:46
<nubae1>
yeah I just need to learn a little about it for my job
07:46
<cyberorg>
you can configure it in your sleep ;)
07:47
<nubae1>
nice
07:47
<cyberorg>
it basically "learns" stuff itself when you create application profile, i have yet to create one for ltsp
07:50
<nubae1>
where is the link to the livedvd again?
07:50

here is a how to keep yourself up to date http://dev.compiz-fusion.org/~cyberorg/2009/04/11/most-efficient-ways-to-download/
07:55
<nubae1>
how is kde with ltsp?
07:55
has anything been done with that?
07:56
<cyberorg>
works fine :)
07:56
what was the problem you had?
07:56
<nubae1>
well, my previous suse install was a total fiasco to be honest
07:57
using kde4
07:57
<cyberorg>
ah, kde4 was a fiasco when they released it :)
07:57
<nubae1>
it overwrote the wrong partition, asked hundreds of questions
07:57
and kde just didnt work
07:57
<cyberorg>
use this http://en.opensuse.org/KDE4
07:58
<nubae1>
I'll stick to gnome for now, I have enough to play around with :-)

i'll be doing kde4.x dvd later, wanted to have it on the same dvd, but we are capped to 2G on oBS at the moment due to space constraint
08:04BugsBunnyBR has joined #ltsp
08:04
<BugsBunnyBR>
hello, someone here?
08:04
<nubae1>
ask away
08:05
<BugsBunnyBR>
I am having a small problem here...when I put "SCREEN_07=ldm" in the lts.conf..the thin client doesnot show ldm
08:05
but when I remove it...the ldm gives me the login scrren
08:05
why?
08:06
<nubae1>
why do u need the screen option?
08:09
<BugsBunnyBR>
I am developing a web ltsp configurator...the scrren option should acept some values...and I would like to could set up this option to any scrren...i mean (SCREEN_02=shell or SCREEN_04=rdesktop)..I will have more work if I have to create a special case to the ldm screen)
08:10
I will need to say to the wizzard ..."hey, if you meet a SCREEN_07-ldm...don't write that in the lts.conf"
08:11
<nubae1>
u know there is already a ltsp configurator that is non web based right? easy-ltsp
08:11
<BugsBunnyBR>
yes
08:11
but I am developing mine
08:11
=D
08:12
the easyltsp does not allow you to set up each terminal (by the screenshots I saw)..my configurator allow you to set up configuration for each terminal
08:12
<cyberorg>
nubae1, just installed one in VM to test italc, works fine without changing the keys here
08:13
BugsBunnyBR, it allows each client configuration
08:13
<nubae1>
strange, well for me, the public key didnt exist
08:13
<BugsBunnyBR>
oh..I didn't know
08:13
<nubae1>
I had to create a keypair and hten chmod 640
08:14
<cyberorg>
does changing network configuration required new keypair?
08:14
i am using default network config that is on the DVD
08:14
<nubae1>
maybe could be
08:14
<BugsBunnyBR>
any way..I would like to know..why I can not put 'SCREEN_07=ldm' in the lts.conf??
08:14alkisg has quit IRC
08:15
<cyberorg>
BugsBunnyBR, as it happens you are in luck, download live DVD and check out easy-ltsp yourself :)
08:15
http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP/Live
08:15
SCREE_07=ldm works fine
08:16
<nubae1>
the problem with having 10.0.0.254, other than it not being the default as in other distros, is that many routers use that subnet
08:16
I would use something else as default
08:17
10.0.1.x would probably be better
08:17
<BugsBunnyBR>
I am sorry..but I don't want to use the easy-ltsp..I have nothing against it
08:18
<cyberorg>
BugsBunnyBR, not to use it, to check out what it already does so it helps to write new app better
08:18
<nubae1>
BugsBunnyBR: maybe have a look at its code, it will probably show what it does
08:18
<BugsBunnyBR>
ok
08:19
<cyberorg>
BugsBunnyBR, btw Jan weber is rewriting it in python, you can join forces with him if you wish
08:19alkisg has joined #ltsp
08:19
<BugsBunnyBR>
But..donwload a dvd just to look into the code??..it has no repository or git repository?
08:20
Mine in in python..
08:20
<cyberorg>
initial code is here https://forgesvn1.novell.com/viewsvn/kiwi-ltsp/branches/easy-ltsp-ng/
08:20
old code https://forgesvn1.novell.com/viewsvn/kiwi-ltsp/branches/ltsp-gui/trunk/
08:20
old one is in c#
08:21
<BugsBunnyBR>
ok
08:21
<cyberorg>
BugsBunnyBR, so why not work together to create something more awesome?
08:22
you can reach him "Jan Weber" jan at luckylemon.de, he is online sometimes
08:22
<BugsBunnyBR>
I went to the site..his work seens to by in the begining...
08:23
<cyberorg>
stgraber's cluster control tool is also web based, i think it can configure lts.conf too, check with him
08:23
yes python one he is just starting
08:23
<BugsBunnyBR>
if I fix this problem..my will by amost ok to use
08:25
<cyberorg>
it should work, if not file a bug :)
08:26
<BugsBunnyBR>
well..in the lts.conf I am setting 2 screens.. the SCREEN_02=shell and in the SCREEN_07=ldm ..if I put just one..it works...may it be the problem?
08:27
<cyberorg>
which distro? i think suse has that issue
08:27
<nubae1>
cyberorg: when using a nomad image, can I restart the server, and then continue using the thinclient?
08:27
<cyberorg>
nubae1, no
08:27
<nubae1>
ubuntu does too, u can only use one screen
08:28
hmmm... shame
08:28
<cyberorg>
though you can restart the client and continue using it :)
08:28
<BugsBunnyBR>
I am using kubuntu 8.04 to the tests..
08:29
so is that..
08:29
<cyberorg>
nubae1, of course we use almost the same init script as ubuntu
08:30
<BugsBunnyBR>
so there is not way to configure two scrrens?
08:30alkisg has quit IRC
08:30
<BugsBunnyBR>
screens*
08:31F-GT has quit IRC
08:34
<BugsBunnyBR>
so there is not way to configure two screens in the same thinclient?
08:35F-GT has joined #ltsp
08:35
<cyberorg>
BugsBunnyBR, there should be, it seems to be broken atm, file a bug
08:35
<BugsBunnyBR>
I am sorry..what is atm??
08:36
<Drakonen>
at the moment
08:36
<BugsBunnyBR>
thanks
08:37
so I will disable this option in my wizzard..
08:37
some thing more what had function in the ltsp 4.2 and does not work in the ltsp 5.0??
08:38
<nubae1>
its a bug, it should work, but doesnt
08:39try2free has joined #ltsp
08:40
<BugsBunnyBR>
yes..I got...but I need to know if there is more bugs like that..if ltsp 5.0 can't handle something..have no sense put that in the wizzard
08:40
when this be fixed..I will enable in the wizzard
08:41
I always use two scrrens in my thinclients in ltsp4.2..but now I will need to think in something
08:42
it's ok..I am not mad with ltsp 5.0 ..I just need to know..

Anyone interested in testing ULGI - Ubuntu LTSP GUI Installer alpha ?
09:22
<cinch>
hi all, im starting out with ltsp and setup a server and discless client. there's something fishy though, if i'm on the client and launch firefox, it gets executed locally instead of on the server.. how can i make it run on the server?

09:24
<cinch>
if i launch processes, and do a "ps aux" on the server they dont show up, so they must be running locally
09:26
sofar im using the default install under debian stable, im using xdm instead of ldm, maybe thats the problem, that xdm launches X locally.. dunno
09:26
ldm has a segfault when i type in the username/password
09:28
<cyberorg>
cinch, turn off localapps from lts.conf
09:29
ah, xdm, sorry no idea about that
09:30
<cinch>
ive set LOCAL_APPS=N, and rebuilt the image, but doesnt make a difference hmm

10:13
<Goldeneyes>
CYBERORG,I have installed Debian Etch and running XEN 3.3, I created a Domu with etch all running in text mode
10:15
CYBERORG, Now the process of installing LTSP on this is as Domu how to
10:15
<cyberorg>
Goldeneyes, it is like you do in normal server
10:16try2free has left #ltsp
10:18
<Goldeneyes>
CYBERORG, a question ... if the process is normal, the Domu has no X installed, you must have X on the server that can run LTSP.
10:19
<cyberorg>
yes, so install it :)
10:22
<Goldeneyes>
CYBERORG, I do not know how to install X on Xen, as an Domu can not directly access the video device, you know how to install an X in a XEN virtual machine, you know how to

Suse's samba server could incorporate user accounts in yast too, thats my one complaint about it
10:22
<cyberorg>
nubae1, can or can't?
10:22
<nubae1>
cannot
10:23
<cyberorg>
of course it can
10:23
<nubae1>
need to do smbpasswd from terminal
10:23
where?
10:23
<cyberorg>
edit user, plugins tab
10:24
<nubae1>
ah plugins... ok, I didnt think of that
10:24
hmm, under user plugins, I have manager user quota
10:25
<cyberorg>
you probably need ldap configured and samba configure to use ldap
10:25
<nubae1>
yeah well, I didnt want that
10:25
I just wanted a regular user for samba
10:25
as is created by smbpasswd
10:25
ldap is often overkill
10:26
especially for a small home environment
10:26
<cyberorg>
its not too much work to get samba+ldap http://digiplan.eu.org/ldap-samba-howto-v4.html :)
10:26
<nubae1>
Its not too hard to use the terminal, but since everything else is so gui based, it would be nice to have smbpasswd incorporated too
10:26
its overkill for a home server... I'm sure u agree
10:26
<cyberorg>
it is incorporated, we always use ldap so never missed it :)
10:27
right for few users, yes
10:27
you can skip certificate part if you dont want to use TLS

nubae1, btw, the SGI cluster sounds pretty cool, i want to get HPC implemented in kiwi-ltsp one of these days, get it to work right off the live DVD :)
10:31

LA PRIMERA: LTSP SE PUEDE EJECUTAR EN UN SERVIDOR QUE NO TIENE INSTALADO X
10:31
ES DECIR TODO EN MODO TEXTO
10:32
<nubae>
no
10:32
necesitas X
10:32

OK ES NECESARIO ENTOCES x
10:32
<nubae>
yeah, the only problem with the sgi altix is it runs on itaniums
10:32
pretty shitty processors
10:32
<Goldeneyes>
SEGUNDA DUDA: Como se instala X en una maquina vistual con XEN 3.3
10:33

igual que en una maquina normal
10:33
instala desde un cd/dvd or imagen

que te dice?

<Goldeneyes>
por que XEN no permite el acceso directo al Video
10:36
<nubae>
hmm, no lo necesita acceder normalmente... si estas en una VM
10:37
intenta instalar un sistema base con X, no del package manager

I am a new to ltsp. I have just followed this tutorial (https://fedorahosted.org/k12linux/wiki/InstallGuide). Everything works fine I can log in but then it shows a blank screen.
20:34
<Ryan52>
what version of Fedora?
20:34
<Vyas>
And nothing after it. I want the clients to be able to use a web browser.
20:35
Ryan52: F10
20:36
<Ryan52>
is this blank screen black?
20:36
all black?
20:37
<Vyas>
Yeah, its all black
20:37
just a mouse pointer and all black screen
20:37
<Ryan52>
add "SCREEN_02 = shell" to your lts.conf
20:38
then reboot
20:38
switch to vt 2 after the screen goes blank
20:38
and look at teh log (might be /var/log/ldm.log, might be syslog)
20:38
hm. mebbe it'll also need a syslog daemon installed if it isn't already..
20:38
check ldm.log first, tho
20:39Shingoshi has joined #ltsp
20:42
<Vyas>
Ryan52: You mean add SCREEN_02 = shell to /etc/ltsp/ltsp-server.conf ?
20:43
<Ryan52>
no
20:43
actually, it should be "SCREEN_02=shell"
20:43
but to lts.conf
20:44
not ltsp-server.conf
20:44
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf
20:51MikeMc has quit IRC
20:53
<Vyas>
Ryan52: I tried adding SCREEN_02=shell in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf but it still shows the same black screen :(
20:55
And I dont have /var/log/ldm.log. I use rsyslog
20:56
<Ryan52>
you are confused. well, I am confusing, so that's understandable :)
20:56
SCREEN_02=shell shouldn't fix it.
20:56
it should make it so that you can switch to the second vt on the client.
20:56
<johnny>
Vyas, rsyslog matters not for ldm.log
20:56
<Vyas>
Oh I C
20:57
<Ryan52>
and then you are on the client. and you can look at the client's ldm.log.
20:59
<Vyas>
Actually, I am using command line "ltsp-vmclient" and if I try to change VT it changes in my host machine. And I dont know how to do that :(
20:59
<Ryan52>
ctrl-alt-2
20:59
you'll get a qemu command prompt
20:59
enter the command "sendkey ctrl-alt-f2"
21:00
then do "ctrl-alt-1" again to get back.
21:04
<Vyas>
wow, something new to learn.
21:05
Well I tried sendkey ctrl-alt-f2 but it doesnt look like it is changing terminal, cause I dont see any shell prompt
21:05
<Ryan52>
what do you see?
21:06
"I dont see" ... that leaves a bunch of possibilities.
21:06
<Vyas>
(qemu)
21:06
<Ryan52>
"I do see" ... that explains it.
21:06
ok.
21:06
that's expected.
21:06
<Vyas>
oh
21:06
<Ryan52>
you need to follow my last step.
21:06
18:59 < Ryan52> then do "ctrl-alt-1" again to get back.
21:07
then you should see a real shell prompt.
21:08
<Vyas>
em, I did sendkey ctrl-alt-f2 and then ctrl-alt-1 but I still dont see a shell prompt
21:08
:(
21:09
Just black screen. This time I dont see mouse pointer too
21:12
<Ryan52>
maybe it starts at zero...lemme check.
21:12
no.
21:13
and you rebooted the client after changing lts.conf?
21:14
<Vyas>
yes, I rebooted the client. I also restarted all the service
21:14
<Ryan52>
are you using nfs or nbd?
21:14
<Vyas>
I am using nfs
21:17
I also tried to put 01 instead of 02 in lts.conf. Just check if it starts on VT1. but no change. still see the same black screen
21:19
<Ryan52>
uhh....after logging in?
21:19
01 is where your login screen is.
21:19
so you should have no login screen at that point.
21:19
(I think)
21:20
<Vyas>
hmmm, I changed it to 02
21:20
but still the same
21:20
I have followed this tutorial: https://fedorahosted.org/k12linux/wiki/InstallGuide. Is there anything missing in it ? I am sorry I am new to this so I dont know
21:20
<Ryan52>
ok, which file exactly are you editing, and please pastebin it's full contents.
21:20
<Vyas>
sure
21:22
<Ryan52>
gah, crap.
21:22
I think I meant for you to be editing /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf
21:22
add that under the default section and see if it works.
21:22* Ryan52 be back later..
21:22
<Vyas>
ah okay, lemme try that :)
21:22
<Ryan52>
(sorry)
21:23
<Vyas>
np :)
21:27
yeah, I now see a shell prompt :)
21:28
So what do I look for here ?
21:31
Link to my lts.conf file >>> http://fpaste.org/paste/8905
21:33
<Ryan52>
after you get the blank screen, and while that's happening, pastebin your /var/log/ldm.log
21:33
on the client
21:43Shingoshi has quit IRC
21:43
<Vyas>
I am trying to scp the ldm.log file to my host machine and it is taking a long while to do that
21:44
still not copied
21:45
<Ryan52>
and you're using the ltspbr0 address?
21:46
<Vyas>
no my eth0 address
21:49
<Ryan52>
that would explain why
21:49
use the ltspbr0 address.
21:57
<Vyas>
wow, instantly
21:57
Ryan52: logs >>> http://fpaste.org/paste/8910
21:58
<Ryan52>
hm.
22:00* Ryan52 is confused
22:01
<Vyas>
dont see anything wrong ?
22:01
<Ryan52>
dunno why it's telling us about it's environment..
22:01
that shouldn't happen, afaik.
22:02
<Vyas>
hmm
22:04
Any way I can get a GUI and atleast run firefox ?
22:05
<Ryan52>
no
22:05
if your setup is broken, you can't get anything to work.
22:05
that's kind of the point of "broken" ;)
22:06
<Vyas>
hmmm, what do you suggest now ? How can I fix it ?

<Vyas>
Ryan52: http://fpaste.org/paste/8911
22:23
<Ryan52>
ok, so it's connected..
22:24
what about the output of "pstree" on the server?
22:25
<Vyas>
Ryan52: http://fpaste.org/paste/8912
22:27
looks okay ?
22:28
<Ryan52>
that gnome-session is on the server
22:28
?
22:28
I mean, are you logged into the server itself with gnome?
22:29
<Vyas>
yes
22:30
<Ryan52>
`ps aux | grep ssh` on the client
22:33
<Vyas>
Ryan52: http://fpaste.org/paste/8913
22:35
<Ryan52>
turn off LDM_DIRECTX
22:35
and try again.
22:38
<Vyas>
you mean turn off in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf right ?
22:38
I tried it, doesnt work
22:42* Ryan52 has no clue, sorry
22:42
<Vyas>
arrrg, its almost 12 and m still at uni, I think i'll give up on this, enough for today
22:42
np
22:42
Thanks for help Ryan52 :)
22:43
Ryan52: Do you have a better how to for F10 by any chance ?
22:44
I mean a better tutorial for ltsp on F10
22:46moquist__ is now known as moquist
22:46
<Ryan52>
i doubt that you messed it up..
22:46
I mean, the basic set up part.
22:47
there's just something wonky in there. anyway, that howto is the official one, and it works..
22:47
<Vyas>
hmmm, may be i'll try that again tomorrow
