| 09:28 | <irule> hi, I am installing my first termianl and am stuck where it says "ramdisk at 34kjlekrtj3 size ·$%&$&%$&", how can I proceed?

| 09:47 | <irule> ping
| |
| 09:47 | <g333k_work> Hello, I'm migrating from ltsp 4.2 to 5, I dont know where is the lts.conf located and if it has the same structure, besides I'm having troubles setting up the autologin with specific users, is the same way that ltsp 4.2?
| |
| 09:48 | <Gadi> quiet room today.
| |
| 09:48 | irule: what version of LTSP?
| |
| 09:48 | <g333k_work> Gadi, yep :(
| |
| 09:49 | <jammcq> nice and quiet
| |
| 09:49 | FernandoMM has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:49 | <irule> how can I know the version?
| |
| 09:49 | <Gadi> g333k_work: same structure as 4.2, but not all configs supported
| |
| 09:49 | irule: how did you install it?
| |
| 09:49 | <irule> good morning all lol
| |
| 09:49 | a cdrom :D
| |
| 09:49 | <Gadi> heh. which one?
| |
| 09:49 | :P
| |
| 09:49 | <irule> I downloaded from ltsp.org
| |
| 09:49 | <g333k_work> Gadi, is located ion the same place? how can I know what options are not supported?
| |
| 09:50 | <Gadi> g333k_work: LTSP 5 (ubuntu's version) does not need an lts.conf
| |
| 09:50 | but you can put one in the same place as 4.2
| |
| 09:50 | there should be an lts-parameters.txt file somehwere
| |
| 09:50 | er, somewhere
| |
| 09:50 | jammcq: is there a CD on ltsp.org?
| |
| 09:51 | <irule> it contains the tsp-kernel-2.6.17.3-ltsp-1-0-i386.ltsp
| |
| 09:51 | among other things ;)
| |
| 09:51 | <Gadi> hmm, well it sounds like 4.2
| |
| 09:52 | do you remember running a command called "ltsp-build-client" or one called ltspadmin?
| |
| 09:52 | <irule> /root/ltsp-4.2u2-0.iso du, lol
| |
| 09:52 | <Gadi> ah
| |
| 09:52 | there ya go
| |
| 09:52 | :)
| |
| 09:52 | FernandoMM has quit IRC | |
| 09:52 | <irule> ltspadmin only, Ive gone through that already
| |
| 09:53 | <Gadi> so, whats the point where you get hung up?
| |
| 09:53 | <irule> where is "ltsp-build-client"?
| |
| 09:53 | <Gadi> its not
| |
| 09:53 | thats ltsp5
| |
| 09:53 | dont mind that
| |
| 09:53 | <irule> ramdisk at $%&$%&%, size $%&///7
| |
| 09:53 | <Gadi> we like to keep things confusing for job security ;)
| |
| 09:53 | <irule> ok?
| |
| 09:53 | <Gadi> jk
| |
| 09:53 | <irule> :s
| |
| 09:54 | well at least you got me confused already lol
| |
| 09:54 | <Gadi> are there numbers where charlie brown is cursing?
| |
| 09:54 | <irule> yes
| |
| 09:54 | <Gadi> are there any lines that precede that one?
| |
| 09:54 | <irule> and before that it says "top of ramdisk is 0X21632362..."
| |
| 09:55 | yes there are many lines before that, is there a logfile I can pastebin to you?
| |
| 09:55 | dotted lines ;)
| |
| 09:55 | <Gadi> heh. given that they are ramdisk issues, my first suspicion is bad ram
| |
| 09:55 | do you have a second terminal handy?
| |
| 09:56 | <irule> not yet :s
| |
| 09:56 | <Gadi> if its a hardware problem, best not to tear your hair out up front
| |
| 09:56 | hmm...
| |
| 09:56 | what kind of machine?
| |
| 09:56 | can you add/remove/replace any RAM?
| |
| 09:56 | <irule> but the terminal does have windows 98 installed and I am using an eb-xxx-.com
| |
| 09:56 | and win98 is not complaining about the ram
| |
| 09:57 | should I still replace ram?
| |
| 09:57 | <Gadi> so you set up your bootloader to dual boot between network and win98?
| |
| 09:57 | or you have the etherboot on a disk?
| |
| 09:58 | <irule> even easyer, I added the eb-xxx.com into autoexec.bat before it runs win.com so I got a quick terminal ;)
| |
| 09:58 | <Gadi> hmm... can you try with a straight etherboot disk
| |
| 09:58 | <irule> nope, eb-xxx.com is on the same hard disk as the win98
| |
| 09:58 | <g333k_work> Gadi, what about the autologin feature... can you help me to se it up well? when I restart the gdm daemon my clients didnt restart... they keep connected
| |
| 09:58 | <Gadi> g333k_work: you need to set SCREEN_07=startx
| |
| 09:58 | <irule> straight etherboot? sounds like I am using a gay disk? lol
| |
| 09:58 | <Gadi> otherwise you will use ldm by default
| |
| 09:59 | irule: heh. not that there's anything wrong with that. if you have a floppy/cd drive,I would burn a disk and etherboot that way
| |
| 09:59 | (or if you have PXE in the bios....)
| |
| 09:59 | <irule> ok thanks Gadi Ill try that :)
| |
| 10:00 | * Gadi worries about the RAM to load the kernel image not being available because autoexec.bat is already loading | |
| 10:00 | * Gadi never booted that way | |
| 10:00 | <irule> my girlfriend's best friend is a hopeless homo, I send them shopping together sometimes and she comes back sparklingly happy afterwards lol
| |
| 10:01 | <jammcq> wait a sec, your girlfriends best friend.... shouldn't that be you ?
| |
| 10:02 | <irule> ok, seconf best friend ;) ...it actually was my idea that the go shopping together, so I can do usefull stuff while they try clothes on together
| |
| 10:02 | I still get to take the clothes off at home tho lol
| |
| 10:03 | my girlfriend's clothes only, of course! ;)
| |
| 10:03 | <g333k_work> Gadi, Oooh, is not working like ltsp 4.2 anymore? from screen_01 in advance?
| |
| 10:04 | <Gadi> g333k_work: on Ubuntu, ldm runs on screen_07 by default. Im not sure if the lower screens have tty's available
| |
| 10:04 | but, I know screen_07 should work
| |
| 10:05 | note: until sbalneav shares his XDMCP removable media support, you will not have removable media with XDMCP (not sure if he's released this yet or not?)
| |
| 10:06 | but, ldm has no autologin feature
| |
| 10:06 | so if you are looking for autologin + removable media + LTSP5, you will need some hacking atm

| 10:07 | <irule> can I use rawrite to flash the eb-xxx.lzdsk on the floppy?
| |

| 10:08 | <irule> hi
| |
| 10:08 | <psyco-obiwan> yes iirc

| |
| 10:10 | <psyco-obiwan> hi efra
| |
| 10:12 | <irule> can I use rawrite to flash the eb-xxx.lzdsk on the floppy?
| |
| 10:13 | <g333k_work> Gadi, or using K12LTSP instead?

| 10:30 | <budgee> jammcq: any news re the VNC mail?
| |
| 10:30 | no replies to the mailing list posting
| |
| 10:30 | am i barking up the wrong tree?
| |
| 10:32 | <jammcq> budgee: what are you expecting?
| |
| 10:32 | <budgee> jammcq: well, the gentoo guys want to remove ltsp-4.2 from the tree unless it is updated to fix the vnc exploit.
| |
| 10:32 | <jammcq> ok, what is your proposal?
| |
| 10:32 | <budgee> must i bypass the ltsp supplied vnc pakage and make gentoo use another?
| |
| 10:33 | <jammcq> or remove vnc altogether
| |
| 10:33 | all work is going towards LTSP-5
| |
| 10:33 | <budgee> yes, i understand that.
| |
| 10:33 | <jammcq> that's where i'd like people to spend their time
| |
| 10:33 | libvnc is used by a very small number of people
| |
| 10:33 | just remove it from the ebuild and move on
| |
| 10:34 | MoL0ToV has quit IRC | |
| 10:34 | <budgee> if someone had replied to my mail with a "dude, you've go no chance of any work being here, we're all working on ltsp5" i would not have go to such great effort to try "fix" 4.2
| |
| 10:34 | i will fix the gentoo version
| |
| 10:34 | thanks
| |
| 10:34 | will join donnie and the gentoo/ltsp effort
| |
| 10:34 | thanks
| |
| 10:34 | sbalneav has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:34 | <budgee> ciao
| |
| 10:35 | <jammcq> SCOTTY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| |
| 10:35 | <sbalneav> I'm BAAAAAAAAK
| |
| 10:35 | Good morning!!!
| |
| 10:35 | <pscheie> scott, you're alive--still!
| |
| 10:35 | <sbalneav> Cleared the decks, finally. Things are settling down.
| |
| 10:36 | <pscheie> jim said you were rolling out...something. What was it?
| |
| 10:36 | <g333k_work> Hey buddies! can you help me please? I have lots of doubts about ltsp 5, beginning from where the list of my clients? in the same /etc/hosts file?
| |
| 10:36 | <jammcq> budgee: I don't think I saw your mail on that. I saw emails a few days ago, but nobody offering to do anything about it
| |
| 10:36 | <sbalneav> pscheie: Huge new program. Poorly written. Lots of fixes needed to make it usable.
| |
| 10:37 | We went live on Jan 2, it's been hell since then.
| |
| 10:37 | <budgee> jammcq: kewl thanks, i didn't have any idea ltsp was effectively unmaintained. no problem, but if i did, i would never have bothered trying to provide you guys with a "fix"
| |
| 10:37 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: Yep, same /etc/hosts
| |
| 10:37 | <jammcq> it's not so much that it's un-maintained
| |
| 10:37 | <budgee> jammcq: np, thanks - will workaround for gentoo ebuild and work toward 5
| |
| 10:37 | <jammcq> but, we never came out with a version for Gentoo. somebody else did that
| |
| 10:37 | <budgee> jammcq: just that next to nobody uses libnvc
| |
| 10:38 | <jammcq> the gentoo port was never an official LTSP port
| |
| 10:38 | <g333k_work> When I put SCREEN_07 = startx in my lts.conf the clients load and I see a X in the middle of the screen
| |
| 10:38 | <budgee> jammcq: yes, but it is not the gentoo "version" that is the issue, it is the fact that 4.2 uses an exploitable vnc library compiled into x11vnx binary
| |
| 10:38 | <g333k_work> btw I'm using Xubuntu edgy + ltsp5
| |
| 10:38 | <pscheie> jammcq: doesn't fl_teachertool use libvnc? (which wouldn't affect the gentoo folks unless they wanted it)
| |
| 10:39 | <budgee> jammcq: just as far as i can see, the gentoo guys identified it.
| |
| 10:39 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: Well, you'll need some kind of display manager on the server.
| |
| 10:39 | <jammcq> budgee: yes, but we don't even load the x11vnc binary
| |
| 10:39 | it's only used by a select few, and even then, they have to do some gymnastics to get it loaded
| |
| 10:39 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: Either that, or don't use startx, use ldm
| |
| 10:39 | <budgee> jammcq: then why include it? i assume it was included to allow for "Remote Asssistance"?
| |
| 10:39 | <jammcq> we included it, cuz we *thought* we'd have remote assistance easily available
| |
| 10:40 | that never happened
| |
| 10:40 | <budgee> jammcq: oook
| |
| 10:40 | jammcq: never knew that
| |
| 10:40 | <jammcq> it's what we call "Kruft" :)
| |
| 10:40 | <g333k_work> sbalneav, Well I'm just commenting that line... but when I restart the gdm daemon my clients keep connected... they dont see the changes in gdm.conf
| |
| 10:40 | <budgee> jammcq: i just saw them bitchin about the exploit and wanting it fixed otherwise they'd remove it
| |
| 10:40 | jammcq: if it is not useful, i'll just remove the libvncserver package from the ebuild
| |
| 10:40 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: You'll probably need to enable xdmcp in gdm
| |
| 10:41 | <budgee> jammcq: thanks
| |
| 10:41 | <jammcq> budgee: we didn't put LTSP into gentoo, we we weren't really concerned about it being removed. For 4.2, we'd rather have people install it the "official" way with ltspadmin
| |
| 10:42 | <budgee> jammcq: ok, i get you there.
| |
| 10:44 | Egyptian[Home] has quit IRC | |
| 10:44 | <budgee> jammcq: one more thing, are there archives of this channel?
| |
| 10:44 | <jammcq> there used to be, but I don't think there are anymore
| |
| 10:45 | <budgee> ok
| |
| 10:45 | thanks
| |
| 10:48 | <psyco-obiwan> why is the content on ltsp.org and www.ltsp.org so different ?
| |
| 10:48 | FernandoMM has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:48 | <jammcq> psyco-obiwan: 'ltsp.org' is hosted on sourceforge. that is going away
| |
| 10:49 | <budgee> psyco-obiwan: ltsp.org is the old site
| |
| 10:49 | <jammcq> www.ltsp.org is the new site
| |
| 10:49 | <budgee> psyco-obiwan: www. is the nre wiki-based site
| |
| 10:49 | jammcq: sorry, my bad
| |
| 10:49 | <psyco-obiwan> always checked there for updates *lol*...happy to find out about 5 now
| |
| 10:49 | thx. but it might confuse lazy typers..
| |
| 10:50 | <jammcq> I need to have 'ltsp.org' be directed to 'www.ltsp.org'
| |
| 10:50 | <pscheie> sbalneav: I've got a LDA problem
| |
| 10:51 | when I plug in a usb stick, I get an icon for the stick, plus one labelled 'floppy'
| |
| 10:51 | even tho' the client has no floppy drive
| |
| 10:52 | I don't think it's a second partition on the stick because if I save something in the floppy folder, it
| |
| 10:52 | bip has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:52 | <pscheie> stays there even if I plug in a different USB stick
| |
| 10:52 | <bip> ogra, i was reading this :
| |
| 10:52 | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ltsp-fat-clients
| |
| 10:53 | <sbalneav> pscheie: What does your udev rules file look like
| |
| 10:54 | <bip> i m askin u because i think u mantain that code, im doin a vmware xubuntu ltsp test instal and i was wondering if that code is feisty specific or if it might worh with edgy as well ogra
| |
| 10:54 | <g333k_work> sbalneav, have yo ever tried to set up autologin with ltsp 5? I tried to follow this guide but I cant make it works... http://www.k12ltsp.org/mediawiki/index.php/A_more_complete_How-To_for_setting_up_autologin_of_clients_using_Gnome_&_GDM
| |
| 10:54 | <pscheie> it's the stock 4.2, I haven't modified it. lemme look
| |
| 10:54 | <ogra> bip, its feisty specific and not ready yet ...
| |
| 10:54 | <bip> ok
| |
| 10:55 | do u know if that might work buy the time first beta will be released ?
| |
| 10:55 | <pscheie> sbalneav: what's the pastebot address?
| |
| 10:55 | <ogra> we already released the second beta fo feisty ... so no
| |
| 10:55 | <bip> as we have discussed in the past im highly interested in testing fat clients and fat/thin clients integration
| |
| 10:55 | <ogra> its missing the network authentication parts yet
| |
| 10:56 | <pscheie> ?pastebot
| |
| 10:56 | <bip> well the last imagae release was stil labeled alpha or maybe i have missed something ogra
| |
| 10:56 | <ogra> you can work without network auth though
| |
| 10:57 | <bip> can i work w/out it ?
| |
| 10:57 | <ogra> just do your user maintenance in the client chroot ...
| |
| 10:57 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: No, I never use autologin
| |
| 10:57 | <bip> well i sorta need to integrate that ino a ms AD structure ...
| |
| 10:57 | <ogra> sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 adduser bleh
| |
| 10:57 | <bip> so im really lookin foward to see the auth part solved too
| |
| 10:57 | <g333k_work> Well maybe my question should have been: Does anybody here have set up autologin with ltsp 5?
| |
| 10:57 | <ogra> will just create local user called bleh in the client environment
| |
| 10:58 | <sbalneav> g333k_work: If you're going to use GDM + startx, then it should be the same.
| |
| 10:58 | <bip> ok could act as workaround
| |
| 10:58 | <sbalneav> It's just a gdm configuration issue.
| |
| 10:58 | <ogra> apart from that the code i the spec should work right ...
| |
| 10:58 | <g333k_work> sbalneav, The same what?
| |
| 10:58 | <bip> ok i ll play a bit with it and let u know what i get out of it ...
| |
| 10:59 | <sbalneav> It should be the same way to do things. I.e. autologin's handled by gdm.
| |

| |
| 12:30 | im having trouble getting a shell on ltsp 4.1 ,netvista 8363, kernel 2.4.32 self compiled ..I have penguinduring boot-up..
| |
| 12:30 | lts.conf has SCREEN_02=shell
| |
| 12:30 | but when i do ctr-alt-f2 ,all i have is a blank screen
| |
| 12:33 | foRza has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:39 | <joebaker> HA! I got LTSP5 to do startx instead of ldm by renaming the ldm script then creating a symlink of ldm to startx.

| 12:47 | <troels> Anyone here who knows a bit about ALSA
| |
| 12:48 | I have tried to GET ESD working and it works on all of my thin stations
| |
| 12:49 | <joebaker> troels: I've just used it in an LTSP environment. I set alsa to use ESD and set up an environment variable of ESPEAKER=hostname:xxxx
| |
| 12:49 | I think alsa speaks to artsd --- I could be wrong.
| |
| 12:50 | foRza has left #ltsp | |
| 12:50 | <troels> I installed the package from the LTSP website http://downloads.sourceforge.net/symbiont/LTSP-esd-alsa_1.0.0-2.tgz?use_mirror=osdn
| |
| 12:52 | rafiks has quit IRC | |
| 12:52 | <troels> The reason why i need alsa is because allmost all softphones uses ALSA not ESD
| |
| 12:52 | <cervajs> Zweisteine: which distro?
| |
| 12:52 | <joebaker> http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Sound Have you seen this page?
| |
| 12:53 | <troels> Xubunto
| |
| 12:54 | Yes this guide i followed to get ESD working, and it works just fine
| |
| 12:55 | daniQ has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:55 | <troels> It says: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
| |
| 12:56 | But if I switch to a tty on the thin client i can run the alsamixer without problems, and change the volume etc..
| |
| 12:58 | <cervajs> Zweisteine: plz send me mail to cervajs at fpf.slu.cz, i have same problem

| 12:59 | <macjunki1> i just updated our ltsp install to 4.2 from 4.0 and updated the server from core 4 to centos 4.4 now when i try and boot my workstations its booting the older 2.4 kernel instead of the 2.6 kernel and drops to asking for a run level
| |
| 12:59 | i'm looking ont he website and don' see where i shoudl be looking to troubleshoot this
| |
| 13:00 | gigabytes has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:01 | <sbalneav> macjunki1: You need to update your dhcpd.conf file.
| |
| 13:01 | Look in the ltsp 4.2 installation guide, it's got a sample dhcpd.conf in there.
| |
| 13:01 | <troels> cervajs i havent solved the problem yet, but when i do i will send you a mail
| |
| 13:02 | Avatara has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:02 | <macjunki1> duh sorry its been about 3 yrs since i set this up
| |
| 13:02 | thx :)
| |
| 13:05 | <troels> macjunki1 i think its because your dhcp server points to the old kernel, remember to change the version name of the kernel
| |
| 13:05 | <macjunki1> yeah it is :)
| |
| 13:05 | just fixed it and testing
| |
| 13:08 | like i said its been about 2-3 yrs since i last looked at this beacuse its worked so well and its used for a beginining linux class so i can't realy touch it during the term
| |
| 13:09 | now i'm getting an error that the bzImage-2.6.9-ltsp-3 isn't a valid image
| |

| |
| 13:18 | }
| |
| 13:18 | <macjunki1> yeah

| |
| 13:19 | thats mine
| |
| 13:21 | <troels> I think you need to change filename "/lts/bzImage-2.6.16.1-ltsp-2"; to filename "/lts/bzImage-2.6.16.1-ltsp-2/pxelinux.0";
| |
| 13:21 | check if the path exists on your system
