05:52* alkisg wonders if he could export the whole server root partition (e.g. /dev/sda1) with nbd to avoid ltsp-update-image... and the client, instead of chroot'ing to /root (on ltsp_nbd in the initramfs), would chroot to /root/opt/ltsp/i386...
05:52
<alkisg>
Or would there be any problems because it's also used by the server at the same time?

06:49
<scottmaccal>
Well, I am in Maine. Not physically upside down, though I feel like that. TGIF
06:49
<elias_a>
As said - it is a truly magnificent form of evolution that first a bunch of people are able to sail across the Atlantic and then learn how to walk upside down... :D

<scottmaccal>
Yes. Imagine what the first people went through.
06:50
<elias_a>
This time on Friday it starts to feel my mind is upside down. Empy as a bucket - with nothing to loose.
06:50
(like Paul Simon sang)
06:50
<scottmaccal>
I hear that.
06:51
The weather here is cold and gray. You way?
06:53
<elias_a>
-3 Celcius and sun is shining :)
06:53
A beatiful winter day.
06:53
Did not even recall how blue winter sky is. Wow....
06:55
<scottmaccal>
Yes I have.

Is there a way to use DKMS with LTSP? I think I need to use the fglrx driver to get fat-client acceleration, but I don't want the module to have to be installed every boot. (I'd like to do it in the chroot before I create the image)
07:24klausade has quit IRC
07:25
<alkisg>
lfaraone: just install it to the chroot, then...

scottmaccal, hio!
08:00
scottmaccal, i have a g3 running ltsp4..the last that bill cavalieri built..but havnt found the magic to run either g3 or 4 in karmic..yaboot downloads..yaboot is read..it starts downloading and craps out..
08:00
<scottmaccal>
bummer.
08:02
cliebow: there must be a way to log the yaboot process to get and idea as to what the issue is.
08:03
<cliebow>
i cant tell if it is tftp issue..it never gets the final packet..
08:03
gets to packet 12289..
08:03
<scottmaccal>
Yeah, it would be cool to have a log of the process to isolate the issue.
08:04
Not that I would have any idea what to do after that is accomplished. :-)
08:04
<cliebow>
the client never gets an os to work with
08:05
tftp tells me nothing..Gadi wondered whether packet size was relevant.
08:05
<ogra>
are you sure yaboot and the kernel from karmic even work ? i.e. did you try with a karmic CD first ?
08:05
<cliebow>
well.. i have a g4 running karmic
08:05
<ogra>
ah
08:06
<cliebow>
so built the image there
08:06* ogra wasnt sure how well thats maintained
08:06
<cliebow>
nor am i..i think there is an ubuntu-powerpc channel?
08:07Gadi has joined #ltsp
08:07
<ogra>
no idea
08:07
i havent touched ppc for ages
08:09
<cliebow>
nor have i..but i just got a request to make g3 work
08:09
in ltsp
08:10
so fir starters got the old 4.1 to run..been agess since ive had any call to work with ltsp\
08:10
we have like 500 of the little bas...err machines around here
08:14
yeah..downloading ltsp/powerpc/vmlinux fails at block 12289
08:15
cant read ELF e_ident /e_type/e_machine info
08:15
Gadi suggested in chroot rm mkelf and add mknbi..
08:16
i did not find elf in chroot
08:16
<ogra>
mkelfimage
08:16
<Gadi>
cliebow: chroot /opt/ltsp/ppc apt-get remove mkelfimage
08:16
<cliebow>
ill try again
08:16
<ogra>
and install mknbi
08:18
<cliebow>
couldnt find package mkelfimage
08:18
apt-cache search mknbi..returns nothing
08:19
<ogra>
heh
08:19
both are x86 tools
08:20
so they dont exist on ppc
08:20
<cliebow>
hmmm..figures 8~)
08:22hersonls has joined #ltsp

it was also mentioned to try stgrabers ppa..i am ignorant how to do this..if anyone cares to explain..
08:40
<CAN-o-SPAM>
cliebow: see if this helps ... https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware
08:50
<cliebow>
CAN-o-SPAM thanks..ill look it up
08:50
<CAN-o-SPAM>
cliebow: just check that for adding a PPA... i didn't have a chacne to read through it. then you can look up "stgraber" on launchpad to find his
08:53
<cliebow>
sure..i would assume this would be installed on the server..rather than the chroot

forget the ppa - I think ur image is just too large
09:19
there is a workaround in that link to try

killed it how?

<cliebow>
heh..no screen light at all
09:26
<Gadi>
huh
09:27
<cliebow>
just black..
09:27
<Gadi>
and you cant hold down a magic key on boot to reset it?
09:27
<cliebow>
not so far..cmd-option PR perhaps

hi
10:29
i implemented ltsp through wifi
10:30
but i am having problem with ltspfsd
10:30
the damon is running
10:31
is there any tcp blocking problems
10:31etyack1 has joined #ltsp
10:32
<alkisg>
How are you booting with wifi?
10:33
<slynux_>
using a usb bootable
10:33
<alkisg>
You wrote the whole chroot to a usb stick?
10:33
<slynux_>
yes
10:33
based on pardus linux
10:33
<alkisg>
And what of the initscripts? They expect nfs or nbd...
10:34
<slynux_>
its all based on pardus linux distro
10:34
but i setup sound using pulseaudio
10:34
but i am having problem with ltspfsd
10:34
i think the issue is client side where daemon is running
10:34
<alkisg>
The daemon is running on the clients, but it doesn't mount the sticks?
10:35
<slynux_>
and some probs with tcp settings
10:35
i think so

Anyone have an idea why local printing will work on a new ltsp client and not older client? I have an intel Atom based client that I was testing with today and got local printing to work no problem, then when I try with my older hardware(dell, compaq PII) clients I am unable to print.
12:32
I can telnet in, check the console and make sure that jetpipe is running etc, nothing ever makes it to the printer though.

Gadi: what was the " Do not start a sound daemon if SOUND_DAEMON is set to False, N, or No" about?
15:00
<alkisg>
To avoid the warning in *)...
15:00
<vagrantc>
Gadi: i.e. in what cases would you have SOUND=
15:00
True, but SOUND_DAEMON=False ?
15:00
rdp ?
15:00
<alkisg>
Yup
15:01
<vagrantc>
oh, the assumptions we've made.
15:01
<alkisg>
(he told me about it yesterday...)
15:01
<vagrantc>
i wonder other places where we've assumed that
15:01
i am fairly certain they exist...
15:02
<AndyGraybeal>
my server is amd64 (intel actually, but you understand) my clients are i386, and i want to add a ppc, how would i do that?
15:02nubae_ has joined #ltsp
15:02* alkisg uses SOUND=false when he doesn't want a daemon
15:03
<vagrantc>
AndyGraybeal: get a powerpc server, build a powerpc chroot, and copy it onto your amd64 server.
15:03
<nubae_>
any idea why fglrx would fail to load in my chroot, when my card is clearly supported? (x1350)
15:04
it does try and load the driver, but then fails
15:04
<vagrantc>
AndyGraybeal: qemu isn't yet up to snuff to produce cross-architecture chroots for *most* architectures (armel does work, though).
15:07
<AndyGraybeal>
vagrantc: i'm really sorry but i don't understand.
15:08
<vagrantc>
AndyGraybeal: the short answer is there's no *simple* way to support powerpc thin clients.
15:08
AndyGraybeal: without a powerpc server.
15:09
AndyGraybeal: you can build it on a powerpc server, copy the appropriate files over to your amd64 server.
15:09
<AndyGraybeal>
vagrantc: okay, so i would need to install ubuntu server onto apple machine, install ltsp, and then configure client?
15:09
<johnny>
yes
15:09
and the copy the chroot and tftpboot stuff back onto amd64 server
15:09
<AndyGraybeal>
okay, i'm sorry that this is so hard for me to understand.. i feel like an idiot.
15:11
<vagrantc>
AndyGraybeal: there are some technologies in development (qemu) that will make it easier in the future, but it's not ready yet for powerpc.
