| 00:18 | <toddobryan> Hey, all. Can someone tell me how to run a desktop environment from inside the ltsp chroot? I'm running a lab of fat clients and I'd like to get everything set up in the image the way I want it and then build the image once I'm happy.
| |
| 00:18 | (I'm also open to other ways of dealing with stuff if people have suggestions.)
| |
| 00:20 | BTW, the computer club is here after school playing Open Arena in the lab. It's about 7:15pm and we're going until 8:00. Today was the last day of school before winter break, so we thought we'd have a LAN party.
| |
| 00:23 | Oh! I'm using Kubuntu 11.10 for the server system, in case that makes a difference.
| |
| 00:27 | <vagrantc> toddobryan: you don't really run from the chroot ... just boot a fat client and update the packages till you get it right
| |
| 00:30 | <toddobryan> One of the things I have to install is Eclipse. (I teach programming.) Unfortunately, there's not an easy way to install Eclipse plugins from the command line. It'd be much easier if I could just fire up the GUI.
| |
| 00:31 | <vagrantc> that's on the mastermind plans for LTSP 6.0
| |
| 00:31 | <toddobryan> Ah. So if there is a way to do it now, it's not easy?
| |
| 00:32 | <vagrantc> still pretty much theory, i think...
| |
| 00:32 | <toddobryan> I mean, I know it's possible to run GNOME and KDE from inside a chroot, because people do that to test new versions before installing them.
| |
| 00:33 | But I haven't found any easy-to-follow instructions.
| |
| 00:33 | <vagrantc> yeah, but LTSP does some writeable stuff that would get overwritten on boot
| |
| 00:34 | <toddobryan> Oh, right. I forgot about that.
| |
| 00:34 | OK. I guess I'll just fiddle until I get it right.
| |
| 00:35 | I'll probably move a terminal next to my server so there's less running around involved, though.
| |
| 00:35 | ;-)
| |
| 00:35 | <vagrantc> use a virtual machine for a terminal :)
| |
| 00:37 | <toddobryan> Oh, that's an idea I hadn't thought of. Just install Virtual Box?
| |
| 00:39 | <vagrantc> virtualbox or qemu or kvm ... whatever works :)

| 00:53 | <toddobryan> Thanks. I'll give everything a try next week.
| |
| 00:54 | This weekend, rest...
