| 00:22 | <gdi2k> greetings. I'm having trouble getting the correct resolution on my terminal. I suspect I need to have the nvidia module installed to make it work (I've never got correct resolution working with nv). so, how would I go about installing the nvidia module for the clients? (ubuntu edgy). Do I have to chroot in and install that way or something? Can't find much info on it...
| |
| 01:52 | It seems that no matter what I put in the [Default] section of my lts.conf, it gets ignored by the clients. How can I tell if the clients are using lts.conf to get config info at all - to me it seems that the file is being completely ignored...
| |

| 02:00 | <gnat42> anyone here know where I can get information on the FC 7 efforts for integrating LTSP?
| |

| 02:18 | <gdi2k> sorry, I'm a ubuntu user myself. any idea why my lts.conf might be being ignored? My clients seem oblivious to, regardless what I put in there...
| |
| 02:20 | <gnat42> gdi2k: sorry no idea, never used ltsp... yet

| 03:04 | <Tegel> The helps says PCI cards should be auto-detected by the LTSP kernel. But what if I have an on-board networkscard on my Nforce4 motherboard?

| 05:41 | <cliebow> Tegel:i supose it isd possible that card has no support in the initramfs ..can you get a pci id for the card by booting a cdrom or something and using lspci?

| 22:17 | <Fosforo> there is a way to automagically let users login based on MAC address ?
| |
| 22:21 | <sbalneav> Not easily, no
| |
| 22:23 | <vagrantc> well, depends on what you mean.
| |
| 22:23 | Fosforo: you mean automatically log in?
| |
| 22:24 | Fosforo: like, as soon as a particular terminal boots, it logs in with a particular user?
| |
| 22:36 | i seem to recall being able to configure xdm to autologin based on ip, so if you configure static ip in dhcpd, you'd indirectly have it mac based.
| |
| 22:36 | also wrote hooks to sdm/xdm to only allow certain logins based on mac address.
| |
| 22:40 | <mistik1> vagrantc: you got to teach me how to write python GUIs
| |
| 22:40 | <vagrantc> mistik1: i'd have to learn how first :)
| |
| 22:40 | <mistik1> lol
| |
| 22:41 | I think I may have fixed a long running issue with Xdialog today
| |
| 22:41 | <vagrantc> which, wouldn't be such a bad idea... ogra_ was supposedly rewriting ldm to use some new GUI backends ... cairo ?
| |
| 22:41 | i should probably get in on that
| |
| 22:41 | <mistik1> Can you imagine a program called [X]dialog that does not report itself to the window manager AS a dialog
| |
| 22:42 | <vagrantc> heh
| |
| 22:42 | * mistik1 made a patch today that fixed that little issue | |
| 22:42 | <mistik1> at least with gtk2 anyway
| |
| 22:43 | It would take a bit more effort to do it on the gtk1x side
| |
| 22:43 | <vagrantc> what still runs gtk1 ?
| |
| 22:43 | <mistik1> I cant believe the author would not add that one stinkin line of code
| |
| 22:43 | He even defended not doing it
| |
| 22:44 | Do you know anyone that uses Xdialog for a full screen program
| |
| 22:45 | I'm going to send the patch upstream in hopes that he'll even look at it
| |
| 22:45 | If not his loss
| |
| 23:02 | <jammcq> jeez, been quiet all day long
| |
| 23:02 | I turn away for a few minutes, and it's like a party in here
| |
| 23:04 | <mistik1> hehe
| |
| 23:11 | * vagrantc cracks open a wine bottle | |
| 23:12 | <Fosforo> vagrantc: sorry for the delay
| |
| 23:12 | <vagrantc> Fosforo: no apologies needed :)
| |
| 23:12 | <Fosforo> vagrantc: :-)
| |
| 23:12 | vagrantc: yes. automatically login an user in X, based on mac / ip
| |
| 23:13 | vagrantc: i want to made things easier to these people (xpde + gdm) - automatically login
| |
| 23:14 | vagrantc: they only have saw redmond things in their entire life
| |
| 23:15 | <vagrantc> i haven't tried that sor of thing since 2001 or so, so my memories a little rusty
| |
| 23:15 | whenever i wrote sdm, actually.
| |
| 23:16 | <Fosforo> *** searching 4 sdm
| |
| 23:16 | <vagrantc> http://packages.debian.org/sdm
| |
| 23:17 | <Fosforo> hmmm great !
| |
| 23:17 | good security pratices...
| |
| 23:18 | <vagrantc> Fosforo: so ... do you want to be able to specify the user and automatically log in, or just have a specific login for each thin-client?
| |
| 23:19 | <Fosforo> Fosforo: automatically login
| |
| 23:19 | vagrantc:
| |
| 23:19 | vagrantc: a specific login for each thin client i think is set at dhcp3.conf
| |
| 23:20 | vagrantc: dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
| |
| 23:21 | <vagrantc> sure
| |
| 23:22 | well... probably no need to have gdm then, you can just configure xdm to pop up a login whenever the client connects to it
| |
| 23:23 | <Fosforo> vagrantc: i thought about no popups... just the xp-like interface and the software they used to work being displayed
| |
| 23:25 | hmm maybe i found it
| |
| 23:25 | http://www.mail-archive.com/ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net/msg29438.html
| |
| 23:25 | vagrantc
| |
| 23:26 | * vagrantc has little to no familiarity with xp | |
| 23:27 | sbalneav has left #ltsp | |
| 23:28 | <Fosforo> vagrantc: xpde interface...
| |
| 23:29 | <vagrantc> even less familiarity with that
| |
| 23:29 | anyways ... yeah, the gdm stuff will probably work for you.
| |
| 23:34 | <Fosforo> vagrantc: after some tests i'll post result here
| |
| 23:34 | thnx man
