I have an ATI Radeon 7000-m (I'm pretty sure). I think I have it figured out though. Just need to reboot to make sure...
00:20
<dan__t>
What was it/
00:20
?

<vinny_>
I don't know. I rm'd my lts.conf, used ltspcfg to generate and new one and now things are (seemingly) working.
00:23
Now I'm just trying to get the resolution configured. X_MODE_0 doesn't seem to like me.
00:23
<dan__t>
You know, I had a few problems with it, as well.
00:24
<vinny_>
Got another baby step done, got the montior working at 1280x1024. Is it possible to specify multiple resolutions?
00:25
<dan__t>
Yes, via X_MODE_{0,1,2}
00:30
<vinny_>
When use X_MODE_1 and X_MODE_2, I can't get into 1280x1024 (X_MODE_0)
00:30
I guess I can live with being "stuck" at a higher resolution...
00:33
Thanks dan, looks like the XServer is working well now.

hi
08:20
i serach the code from ltsp-server-pkg
08:20
<ogra_>
ubuntu or debian ?
08:21
https://launchpad.net/~ogra/+branch/ltsp/feisty-ltsp is the most recent development branch
08:21gigabytes has quit IRC
08:22
<sumpfdotterblume>
gentoo and a sparc64 :-D
08:22
<ogra_>
https://launchpad.net/~ogra/+branch/ltsp/ltsp-mainline is the upustream branch (merged from debian and ubuntu development)
08:23
dunno where gentoo development takes place, they didnt commit anything to the upstream source yet
08:25
<sumpfdotterblume>
is there a download link?
08:30
<ogra_>
you need to use bzr
08:30
or pull the sourcfe package from archive.ubuntu.com
08:30
<sumpfdotterblume>
ok thx
08:31bricode has joined #ltsp
08:31mistik1 has quit IRC
08:31
<ogra_>
does gentoo already have an ltsp-server package ?
08:32
(did dberkholz already package something ?)
08:32
if so it would be nice to merge the code into the upstream branch ...
08:46
<sumpfdotterblume>
Can you say me wath i must do with ltspswapd-startscript? must init it load?
08:47
<ogra>
we dont use ltspswapd in ltsp5 anymore ... so no, i could only tell you something about integrated nbd swapping in ltsp5 :)
08:49
<sumpfdotterblume>
:-(
08:49
wath's better ltsp-4.2 or 5?
08:50
<ogra>
that depends on your distro :)
08:50
with ubuntu and debian use 5
08:50
with all others you woint be able to use 5 ... unless you implement it yourself

Can someone offer a HOW-to, URL or comments on this: I have an LTSP system with some P-III clients that properly boot via PXE. However the P-II clients tftp the kernel and then stop at the "Ok, booting the kernel" message. keyboard dead, end of show. Has the current LTSP 4.2 default kernel been configured to explicitly support P-III of better?
09:44
<irule>
what does AFAIK mean?
09:46
<mtnbkr>
As far as I Know
09:51
Everything I am reading (google, LTSP etc) seems to indicate otherwise, and that a P-II should be perfect client. Perhaps it is a memory (low memory) issue on the P-II?

Ok, then... next question... where can I get the .config file that the default LTSP-4.2 kernel is using so I might start from a known point? :)
10:23
from the shell on the client there doesnot seem to ba a /proc/config.gz file to work from ...
10:23
Oh wait... there it is! nevermind

afternoon ! ! xD i'm plannin a simple admin here, with what I can do (php) ... can I get the username, date/time logged in? what command?

11:18

mtnbkr: its a lan house, so I need to manage how much time a customer uses the terminals... so, if there is some shell command I can run that gives me the username and the time logged in, i do the math on php and store it in db...

oh the "time logged in" not "the time the user logged in" I see now... But the default last field in the last output already gives you this information, no?

UG! Oh yea... I vaguely remember an issue now with last and graphical logins. I am pretty sure that I was able to come up with a working work around... but I have NO idea since that was a long time ago - and the client never endedup needing that solution in the end. Oh wait... I think since I was automounting user's home directories (on another server via NFS) I was able to parse that info from the other server's logs... That sounds fa
11:34
miliar. Bu that only got us logon times, not "amount of time logged in" so I don;t think that will help you. Sorry. :(

I have KDM working just fine on my Ubuntu 6.10 box, but the clients are presented with GDM when they boot
16:58
What I REALLY want to do is have auto login happening with a specific user per thin client. KDM seems to allow this simply if I can get it to load!

Hello All, I've got a problem with the KDM windows manager

It isn't used by the Client computers

18:42jmalone68 has joined #ltsp

<jmalone68>
Anyone out there?
18:43
<cliebow>
so you want to use kdm as the dm?
18:43
<jmalone68>
That's correct, cliebow
18:43
<cliebow>
tis is fc6 or something?
18:43
<jmalone68>
I've got kdm running on the server fine
18:43
I'm using Ubuntu
18:44
<cliebow>
ltsp5 uses a local display manager which is ldm
18:44
<jmalone68>
But when the client boots up it uses gdm
18:45
What I REALLY want to do is have an auto login which is specific for each client computer, identified by IP or hostname or something... KDM seemed to allow that
18:46
<cliebow>
i am not that familiar with it..but if you are using ubuntu;s ltsp you have what looks like gdm
18:47
<jmalone68>
Correct.
18:47
<cliebow>
you'll need to talk to ogra toget the eal poop..it is under active development...for sure
18:47
<jmalone68>
Any ideas on the individual auto login per machine?
18:48
<cliebow>
i havnt used it enough to help...

Hey, thanks for chatting though.... I appreciate the effort.

k12ltsp 5
19:48
<jammcq>
umm, no clue
19:48
<petre>
I've been using this client with another k12 5 server for the past week, testing pci sound cards
19:48
which work with Gadi's patch
19:49
but ISA cards fail
19:49
<jammcq>
isa cards can't be auto-detected
19:49
<petre>
so I figured I'd plug it into my 'production' server which doesn't have the patch to see if it behaves differetnlyt
19:49
right, but right now there's no sound card in it
19:50
it boots to a command prompt 'cause I set screen_0 to that
19:50
but lsmod for example showd usbcore, usbkbd
19:51
but there's no usb on this client
19:51
and it wasn't acting like this with the other k12 5 server
