| |
| 00:02 | <gaga> would like to set up ltsp 5 on mandriva 2007.0 but can't seem to find a step by step how to
| |
| 00:03 | is there a guide online I can refer to?
| |
| 00:03 | <Nikopoika> heh, i have mandriva 2007.0 too :) but i'm using ltsp 4.2, i thought that ltsp 5 is still in some kind of "beta"-state
| |
| 00:04 | oh sorry, forgot to read topic
| |
| 00:05 | <gaga> I see, well, ltsp 5 is working on ubuntu, but haven't tried it though, anyway, on the diskless workstation on 4.2, was it easy to connect an ipod and/or digital camera?

| 01:17 | <cyberorg> can anyone tell if this is right way to specify lib dir path? greeter = subprocess.Popen(["/usr/lib/ltsp/greeters/gtk", "/usr/lib64/ltsp/greeters/gtk"], i want it to check in either lib or lib64 as 64bit suse uses /usr/lib64 as default lib path

| 02:04 | <bao> my dell laptop INSPIRON 640m use broadcom 44x network card
| |
| 02:04 | it seems ltsp dosn't support it, any idea?

| 02:16 | <bao> hi ogra
| |
| 02:16 | <ogra> hey
| |
| 02:16 | <bao> my dell laptop INSPIRON 640m use broadcom 44x network card
| |
| 02:17 | it seems ltsp dosn't support it, any idea?
| |
| 02:17 | <Q-FUNK> the 43xx driver might support it
| |
| 02:17 | <bao> how do I do? using 43xx?
| |
| 02:17 | <Q-FUNK> yup
| |
| 02:17 | <bao> in dhcpd.conf?
| |
| 02:18 | <Q-FUNK> but generally speaking, broadcom hardware is not well supported, because broadcom refuses to publish their specs.
| |
| 02:19 | <bao> en
| |
| 02:19 | I know broadcom is not nice
| |
| 02:19 | but dell claims its laptop can run linux

| |
| 02:20 | bao, see that
| |
| 02:20 | <bao> oh, thank you very much
| |
| 02:20 | <ogra> you need to use fwcutter to obtain the firmware
| |
| 02:20 | then the builting bcm43xx driver should just work
| |
| 02:21 | *builtin
| |
| 02:21 | <bao> firmware?

| 04:03 | <trust-server_> hello, i have a problem with edubuntu 7.04 and ltsp. every client is able to connect to the server, but now i'm trying to boot from a toshiba notebook (with a marvell 88e8036 pci-e network-card), it shows the bootsplash, and after that te screen is freezing...
| |
| 04:04 | after i've turned off the splash screen, there was the following error-message:
| |
| 04:04 | ipconfig: eth0: SIOCGIFINDEX: No such device
| |
| 04:04 | ipconfig: no device to configure
| |
| 04:04 | Kernel panic
| |
| 04:06 | help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| |
| 04:06 | help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| |
| 04:09 | <str4nd_> Troll...
| |
| 04:09 | <Burgundavia> not really
| |
| 04:10 | somebody frustrated
| |
| 04:10 | <trust-server_> yes
| |
| 04:11 | <yanu> maybe the marvell-chipset is not supported in the ltsp-kernel
| |
| 04:12 | <trust-server_> i also think so
| |
| 04:13 | but i've already included the "sk98lin"-module into the /etc/modules file and into the lts.conf....
| |
| 04:13 | <sep> trust-server_, check what driver the chipset uses. check if the provided kernel have that driver. if it don't you must upgrade your kernel. if it does you should check if the initrd contains the driver. if it does not. you must rebuild the initrd and include that driver.
| |
| 04:14 | <trust-server_> should i copy the sk98lin.ko into the initrd directory?
| |
| 04:19 | <sep> no, you should edit etc/initramfs-tools/modules and recrete the initrd (i usualy do that with dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$version)
| |
| 04:19 | adjust acording if you use a different initrd script.
| |
| 04:21 | Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:21 | <trust-server_> thank you... i'm checking that now
| |
| 04:23 | mh... that won't work
| |
| 04:23 | <sep> trust-server_, works for me
| |
| 04:24 | <trust-server_> i also can't run the lsmod command... it says there is no /proc/modules file
| |
| 04:24 | <sep> you probably have not mounted proc
| |
| 04:25 | <trust-server_> the folder is empty...
| |
| 04:27 | how can i mount proc?
| |
| 04:29 | <cyberor1> mount --bind /proc /whereever
| |
| 04:29 | <trust-server_> i've got it
| |
| 04:30 | Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:30 | <trust-server_> lsmod shows the sk98lin module...
| |
| 04:31 | trying to boot the laptop...
| |
| 04:31 | kernel panic
| |
| 04:34 | i really dont know what i should do...
| |
| 04:35 | ipconfig: eth0: SIOCGIFINDEX: No Such Device
| |
| 04:35 | ipconfig: no devices to configure
| |
| 04:36 | Kernel-Panic - not syncing...
| |
| 04:37 | its working with any other pc or notebook... i can't explain that..
| |
| 04:46 | thanx @all .... fuck toshiba

| |
| 07:31 | best thing you cann do is dod the steps and post the results succinctly on pastebot.ltsp.org..perhaps scotty will take a lok when you do..
| |
| 07:32 | <Mineque> cliebow: "Step 9: Is the fuse module loaded?" i dont have module for fuse, i have it hard selected in kernel
| |
| 07:33 | <cliebow> i aam not sure ..is /dev/fuse created..and with proper perms?
| |
| 07:35 | there are a couple gentooistas around...dberkholz i think..
| |
| 07:35 | vagrantc has joined #ltsp | |
| 07:39 | <Mineque> so i need to wait :)
| |
| 07:40 | dev/fuse exist with 660 perms
| |
| 07:40 | maybe i must set 666?
| |
| 07:41 | <cliebow> if you have not created members of the fuse group..set to 666 1
| |
| 07:42 | /1/!
| |
| 07:43 | <marek82> isit possible ltsp integrate somehow with vnc..

| 08:12 | <sbalneav> juaquim_XVII: What happens when you try this?
| |
| 08:13 | <cliebow> SCREEN_01 = telnet server2.mydomain.com
| |
| 08:13 | You can also specify any options that Telnet understands, But, if you do specify any options, then you
| |
| 08:13 | must also specify the server to connect to.
| |
| 08:14 | <juaquim_XVII> Automatic user login on diskless, understand me ?

| 08:18 | <anrke> Hello. I bought two LTSP Term 1220 PXE Thin Client. My server is a Debian
| |
| 08:18 | Etch with ltsp5.
| |
| 08:18 | When I want to start the 1220 PXE Thin Client, I have this series of messages
| |
| 08:18 | http://fr.pastebin.ca/raw/477062
| |
| 08:19 | <sbalneav> juaquim_XVII: is this machine connected to the internet?
| |
| 08:19 | <anrke> When I test the server LTP5 with a PC without hard disk, all functions correctly .
| |
| 08:20 | <sbalneav> anrke: You haven't got your dhcp or tftp properly going, looks like...
| |
| 08:21 | <juaquim_XVII> No, no, only in local area....
| |
| 08:22 | <sbalneav> So, I'm confused. Is this not working for you?
| |
| 08:23 | <anrke> sbalneav : Then why that functions with a PC and not with my Thin Client
| |
| 08:24 | I does not understand
| |
| 08:24 | <sbalneav> anrke: Not sure, can you paste your dhcpd.conf file to the pastebot?
| |
| 08:24 | !pastebot
| |
| 08:24 | <ltspbot`> sbalneav: "pastebot" is The LTSP pastebot is at http://pastebot.ltsp.org. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebot, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. A link to the content will be pasted in the channel.
| |
| 08:24 | <sbalneav> juaquim_XVII: So, is the telnet line working?
| |
| 08:25 | <juaquim_XVII> Yes...

| 08:26 | <Guaraldo> sbalneav: He wants the clients telneting without password need... I think it's not a good idea and I don't now if it's possible...
| |
| 08:27 | <sbalneav> It will work. It's a very, VERY bad idea, but it will work.
| |
| 08:28 | <genjix> hi!
| |
| 08:28 | <sbalneav> anrke: Hmmm
| |
| 08:28 | You might need the "next server" directive
| |
| 08:29 | let me check the syntax
| |
| 08:29 | <anrke> sbalneav : it is a serious doctor ?
| |
| 08:30 | <sbalneav> anrke: I assume the server is on 192.168.0.254?
| |
| 08:30 | <anrke> no the server is 192.168.0.5
| |
| 08:30 | <sbalneav> ok
| |
| 08:31 | <anrke> 192.168.0.254 it the gateway
| |
| 08:32 | <sbalneav> try adding the line (after "authoritative"):
| |
| 08:32 | next-server 192.168.0.5;
| |
| 08:32 | and restart your dhcpd.conf file
| |
| 08:32 | sorry
| |
| 08:32 | restart the dhcp3-server
| |
| 08:32 | <anrke> sbalneav : i try
| |
| 08:32 | <sbalneav> invoke-rc.d dhcp3-server restart
| |
| 08:32 | <anrke> sbalneav : ok
| |
| 08:33 | sbalneav : I test
| |
| 08:42 | it goes, but I have a problem with the screen. The view of the screen is not supported. H:90.1Khz V:60.1Hz

| 09:57 | <jkommeri> Mineque: shouldn't it mount the stick automatically?
| |
| 09:58 | <Guaraldo> jkommeri: yep, it should...
| |
| 10:00 | jkommeri: maybe you put the line "mount -a" at the end of /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/udev/scripts/ltsp-device.sh
| |
| 10:00 | jkommeri: maybe it resolve your problem...
| |
| 10:01 | <jkommeri> I don't have that directory
| |
| 10:01 | <Guaraldo> jkommeri: LTSP4.2 or 5?
| |
| 10:02 | <jkommeri> 5?
| |
| 10:02 | I mean 5
| |
| 10:02 | <Guaraldo> jkommeri: Oh, so it should mount automaticaly...
| |
| 10:04 | <Mineque> jkommeri: maybe... mine doesnt work :/
| |
| 10:05 | <jkommeri> Guaraldo: for some reason the usb-stick is not mounted when it is inserted
| |

| 10:18 | <sutula> vagrantc: Do you know what the status of sound is for the ltsp-server package in Debian Etch?
| |
| 10:19 | vagrantc: What I'm seeing is that the client's kernel has /proc/asound entries, but udev isn't building /dev/dsp, so esd won't run on the client
| |
| 10:21 | <vagrantc> sutula: hmmm... it's been a long while since i've tested sound.
| |
| 10:21 | sutula: you might need to load the oss compatibility modules
| |
| 10:22 | sutula: or libesd-alsa00
| |
| 10:22 | er
| |
| 10:22 | sutula: or libesd-alsa0
| |
| 10:23 | <sutula> vagrantc: This seems to be more related to getting a valid /dev/dsp on the client, but I'm not sure
| |
| 10:24 | vagrantc: I can keep working on it...just was wondering if there was some "oh yeah, you need to turn on xyz"
| |
| 10:24 | vagrantc: Is the client kernel basically a stock Debian kernel?

| 10:40 | <jkommeri> sbalneav: i don't know where to start searching for the problem
| |
| 10:41 | <sbalneav> jkommeri: You could start by actually giving me some useful information, like, what version of LTSP are you running, what host are you running, what isn't working, etc.
| |
| 10:41 | <jkommeri> sbalneav: ltsp5 ubuntu feisty
| |
| 10:42 | <Mineque> sbalneav: ws191.ltsp:0.0
| |
| 10:42 | <sbalneav> jkommeri: How did you install ltsp5?
| |
| 10:42 | <jkommeri> sbalneav: usb-sticks wont mount automatically but they can be mounted manually
| |
| 10:42 | <sbalneav> Mineque: You could always try starting ltspfsd on the client with the -a option, which would disable auth.
| |
| 10:43 | jkommeri: Did you do an apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone?
| |
| 10:43 | <jkommeri> sbalneav: I installed ltsp from ubuntu package ltsp-server-standalone
| |
| 10:44 | <vagrantc> sutula: yes, it should be a stock debian kernel

| 10:54 | <sbalneav> So, I'm confused.
| |
| 10:54 | <jkommeri> :)
| |
| 10:54 | <sbalneav> Where are you wanting the session on?
| |
| 10:55 | The LTSP server?
| |
| 10:55 | Or do you have a central XDMCP server somewhere you're wanting everyone to log into?
| |
| 10:55 | <jkommeri> the machine that has the ltsp installation is different from the machine that has gdm/gnome etc
| |
| 10:56 | <sbalneav> I don't beleive we support that.
| |
| 10:56 | As yet.
| |
| 10:57 | <nicoAMG> hello!; What's the state of LTSP on Ubuntu 7.04?
| |
| 10:58 | <sbalneav> No, I don't think we have an SSH_HOST variable.
| |
| 10:58 | <jkommeri> works
| |
| 10:58 | ok
| |
| 10:58 | <sbalneav> nicoAMG: Your question's a little open ended.
| |
| 10:58 | What do you want to know?
| |
| 10:59 | <nicoAMG> Hmm, I want to know if the LTSP software is integrated or not?
| |
| 10:59 | <jkommeri> sbalneav: where does the ldm startup script take the ip it uses?
| |
| 11:00 | for ssh connection
| |
| 11:00 | <nicoAMG> sbalneav: and, if it works with local devices an local sound..
| |
| 11:00 | <sbalneav> jkommeri: by default, it goes after the SERVER variable
| |
| 11:00 | nicoAMG: yes, yes, and yes.
| |
| 11:00 | <nicoAMG> sbalneav: :)
| |
| 11:01 | <Mineque> sbalneav: and when it would be integrated in gentoo? :P
| |
| 11:01 | in 2009.0 version? :P
| |
| 11:01 | <sbalneav> Mineque: When someone from gentoo does it :)

| |
| 11:09 | spectra has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:10 | <kaminski-ltsp-br> nicoAMG: you can use debian + ltsp5 via apt

| |
| 11:12 | Guaraldo has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:12 | <vagrantc> yes, we do support a different NFS server from an application server with LDM
| |
| 11:12 | set SERVER= in lts.conf
| |
| 11:12 | and then add the ssh keys ... somewhere
| |
| 11:14 | add your ssh keys to ... (oh, this is ugly) ... /etc/ltsp/ssh_known_hosts.extra
| |
| 11:15 | <jkommeri> is that a default location?
| |
| 11:15 | Guaraldo has left #ltsp | |
| 11:16 | <jkommeri> so need to make keys to application server and to nfsroot in access-server
| |
| 11:16 | ?
| |
| 11:17 | Guaraldo has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:17 | <vagrantc> you don't need to make keys, you just need to copy the .pub keys ...
| |
| 11:18 | /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key.pub
| |
| 11:19 | <jkommeri> which the thin client can use to make ssh connection to application server?
| |
| 11:19 | <vagrantc> cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key.pub | sed -e 's,^,SERVER ,g'
| |
| 11:20 | it is just a validation option
| |
| 11:20 | so that someone doesn't pretend to be your server and steal your password
| |
| 11:20 | <jkommeri> ok
| |
| 11:20 | <vagrantc> ssh requires it by default
| |
| 11:21 | <jkommeri> ok, thanks
| |
| 11:21 | * vagrantc is not explaining it very well | |

| 11:22 | <vagrantc> cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key.pub | sed -e 's,^,SERVER ,g' > SERVER.ssh_known_hosts
| |
| 11:22 | and then .... for each SERVER.ssh_known_hosts file ... add the lines to /etc/ltsp/ssh_known_hosts.extra
| |
| 11:23 | on the NFS server
| |
| 11:23 | <jkommeri> ok
| |
| 11:23 | <vagrantc> and run ltsp-update-sshkeys
| |
| 11:23 | i think that'll work.
| |
| 11:23 | <physis> ltsp can be installed in any linux?
| |
| 11:23 | archlinux for example
| |
| 11:23 | <vagrantc> there is only ltsp5 on debian and ubuntu so far
| |
| 11:24 | but you can use a debian or ubuntu tarball on other distros
| |
| 11:24 | <physis> ok
| |
| 11:24 | <vagrantc> might have trouble getting all features to work, but the basics are possible
| |
| 11:24 | !tarball

| |
| 13:03 | was fixed?
| |
| 13:05 | <anivair> Ok, I feel less dumb. Remote login wasn't enabled, but enabling it didn't solve the problem
| |
| 13:06 | basically, they get the login screen, login, and then get dumped right back out ot it

| 13:43 | <joebaker> The X server autodetect chooses nv. The problem is that these are 1st generation RIVA128 integrated chipsets with only 4mb of shared ram.

| 13:44 | Can I simply rename the nv driver to become a symbolic link to the vesa driver?
| |
| 13:53 | sepski has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:53 | <anivair> sure you can. You can also change the xorg.conf and tell lts.conf to use that one

| 13:54 | I'd save the vesa driver somewhere, though

| 14:19 | mage has joined #ltsp | |
| 14:19 | <anivair> so what line was that really?
| |
| 14:19 | any clue?
| |
| 14:19 | <mage> do you guys custom patch for swap with nbd to work?
| |
| 14:21 | <anivair> i don't think so
| |
| 14:21 | <joebaker> mage... In LTSP 5 I don't believe nbd is used rather there's some new swap over network implementation .... I think it's called ltspfs but I could be wrong.
| |
| 14:21 | I know the way swap files has been handled has changed though.
| |
| 14:22 | Q-FUNK has quit IRC | |
| 14:23 | <joebaker> anivair... I guess that file is only about 200+ lines long... :)
| |
| 14:23 | <anivair> yup

| 14:23 | <mage> awww hell

| 14:23 | <mage> last time I used ltsp was version 3 :)
| |
| 14:25 | <nicoAMG> anivair: some fix ?
| |
| 14:25 | Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp | |
| 14:26 | <mage> I thought ltspfs was for getting local storage to work
| |
| 14:26 | <kuzew> Mmm, yeah, thats what I thought.
| |
| 14:27 | <joebaker> Why do you need to know about the swap technique Mage?
| |
| 14:28 | <mage> firefox just looooves to waste ram
| |
| 14:28 | running a hacky nfsroot
| |
| 14:29 | <Mineque> mage: use lynx it use little of ram :P
| |
| 14:30 | <anivair> I'm still not sure what line is causing the new error
| |
| 14:30 | <joebaker> Yes. You should have some swap available to run Firefox. I remember going to a page which had a huge background image and it would kill my x server.
| |
| 14:31 | Mage: another way is to run vncserver on the server and run vncviewer with it's display directed to the thin client.
| |
| 14:32 | Hey maybe I'm mistaken. I see option NBD_SWAP = True in my lts.conf file
| |
| 14:38 | <mage> Invoking swapoff on all 'nb*' files in /dev...
| |
| 14:38 | ubuntu seems to know what im going to use it for :)
| |
| 14:41 | anivair has quit IRC | |
| 14:47 | <mage> well I also want to run vmplayer, and it doesn't like /tmp being nfs, so I had to use tmpfs which resulted in it having two copies of the vm's ram, in ram

| 15:05 | juaquim_XVII has quit IRC | |
| 15:06 | <joebaker> mage: I've run VMWare inside a vncserver so that the guest OS could run un-interrupted.
| |
| 15:08 | maybe that approach could help you? Full Screen didn't work back in version 4.5 from within a vncserver, although you could use other remote access tools talking directly to the guest OS.
| |
| 15:10 | <mage> I'm going to try nbd swap for now, and if that screws up, /tmp via nbd
| |
| 15:19 | <lindi-> mage: i have used nbd with swap for years (not with ltsp)
| |
| 15:20 | vykarian has joined #ltsp | |
| 15:22 | <joebaker> lindi-: You've captured my interest... How do you use swap over nbd?
| |
| 15:23 | <sepski> joebaker, i use it by having nbd-server installed and working on the server and putting NBD_SWAP=Y in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf
| |
| 15:23 | <lindi-> joebaker: just normally? ;)
| |
| 15:23 | joebaker: nbdclient ... ; swapon /dev/nd0
| |
| 15:25 | a5benwillis has quit IRC | |
| 15:27 | <joebaker> lindi-: I'm sorry I thought you said that you used it somewhere other than with LTSP.... Oh, you use the LTSP server as the swap device, but your client machine just executes the nbdclient command. I've thought about doing this with an old laptop of mine that can't expand beyond 192 MB of ram.

| |
| 15:39 | <dberkholz> Mineque: hm?
| |
| 15:39 | <Mineque> ltsp installed on Gentoo OS :)
| |
| 15:40 | <dberkholz> Mineque: well, i've got an ongoing (slowly moving) project to port ltsp5 to gentoo. you can install 4.2 from portage already, just emerge ltsp
| |
| 15:40 | i think there's even a doc for that
| |
| 15:41 | <Mineque> i've got it installed and writing from terminal, but i have little problem with mounting local dev like pendrives
| |
| 15:41 | <dberkholz> i can't help you with 4.2
| |
| 15:42 | but that should be a fairly generic thing that anyone in here could try to troubleshoot who knows 4.2
| |
| 15:42 | <Mineque> not good...

| 15:43 | <Mineque> dberkholz: and how about status of porting ltsp5?
| |
| 15:44 | <joebaker> lindi-: I have some servers with LOTS of unused RAM. I've often thought of making RAM disks accessable via nbd. An interesting way of increasing swap speed I would think.

| |
| 15:46 | <mage> I was going to try and burn eeproms with my intel etherexpress pro 100
| |

| |
| 15:46 | <dberkholz> Mineque: help from people quite familiar with writing gentoo-style init scripts, FHS, and portage's ROOT support

| 15:47 | <sbalneav> Evening all
| |
| 15:47 | <Mineque> so... if you would need betatesters i could help :)
| |
| 15:47 | <sbalneav> Mineque: did you disable the ltspfs authentication?
| |
| 15:48 | <Mineque> sbalneav: yes but that didnt help
| |
| 15:48 | <lindi-> joebaker: possibly
| |
| 15:48 | <sbalneav> Mineque: So, you still get an authentication failed?
| |
| 15:48 | <joebaker> mage: I'm sorry I didn't understand your "manual allocations" question.
| |
| 15:49 | <rjent> any takers on the image type? I am not sure between zpxe and zrom
| |
| 15:49 | <sbalneav> If you're trying to burn a rom, you'lll need the rom type.
| |
| 15:50 | <mage> hmm, I'd guess zee rom, because zat is vere you are putting zfile, no?
| |
| 15:51 | <Mineque> sbalneav: hmm.... back... one test have to make...

| |
| 15:53 | <sbalneav> can you paste your lts.conf file to the pastebot?

| |
| 15:59 | <rjent> yes
| |
| 15:59 | I will test again to be sure
| |
| 16:02 | <Mineque> sbalneav: sth wrong with my lts.conf?
| |
| 16:03 | <sbalneav> Which version of ltsp did you say you were running?
| |
| 16:03 | <Mineque> 4.2
| |
| 16:03 | <sbalneav> because you've got a mix of ltsp 3, 4.1, and 4.2 localdev stuff in there
| |
| 16:04 | And you HAVE NOT disabled the ltspfs authentication.

| |
| 16:05 | <sbalneav> Nope
| |
| 16:05 | I said -a
| |
| 16:05 | <Mineque> ehh, my mistake...
| |
| 16:06 | <sbalneav> Check on the docs page, I can't remember if it's LTSPFSD_ARGS = "-a" or LTSPFSD_OPTS = "-a"
| |
| 16:06 | It's one of the two.
| |
| 16:06 | <Mineque> ok
| |
| 16:06 | <sbalneav> I'm not working on LTSP 4.2 anymore.
| |
| 16:06 | so I can't remember off the top of my head
| |
| 16:07 | <yanu> LTSPFSD_OPTIONS = "-a"
| |
| 16:08 | that is the magic-option :)
| |
| 16:08 | <rjent> sbalneav: yes boot iso works great. I have already tried the zpxe on an eprom and it does not work. So I should now download the zrom and try?
| |
| 16:08 | <Mineque> yanu: thx

| |
| 16:12 | <Mineque> sbalneav: and now restart ltsp?

| 19:41 | <anco> Hello my first Irc experiance ever... so sorry if I make mistakes or stupid errors. At least did an hour reading manuals first.
| |
| 19:42 | I just installed a edubuntu 7.04 ltsp setup with two clients in Bamako in a little cybercafe as a test.
| |
| 19:43 | First impression great. Hope this will help Maliens to reuse older computers in a good way.
| |
| 19:43 | A little weird thing I got today. If I put in a usb-key in the server than it show up at the clients....
| |
| 19:44 | If I put in a usb-key in a client it only shows up in that client... good.
| |
| 19:44 | Anybody experience with this?
| |
| 19:45 | <petre> anco: I get the same thing on K12LTSP
| |
| 19:45 | <anco> In my case it is unpredictable on what client the usbkey shows up.
| |
| 19:46 | It looks like the first who clicks on the folder get the real view of files.
| |
| 19:46 | <petre> do you mean when you plug it in at the client or at the server?
| |
| 19:46 | <anco> the other get only empty window
| |
| 19:46 | the problem is only when plugging into the server
| |
| 19:46 | <petre> don't use the server as a client
| |
| 19:47 | <anco> But I like to use the server also as workstation....
| |
| 19:47 | if possible
| |
| 19:47 | At least the "teacher should be able to use and work on it, or not?
| |
| 19:47 | <petre> since everything is running on the server, anything plugged in there is going to be at least seen by all clients
| |
| 19:47 | <anco> ah
| |
| 19:47 | <petre> I have the teachers use a client just like the students
| |
| 19:48 | server is just a box in the corner, no monitor even
| |
| 19:48 | <anco> mmm okay so should put it in a corner too...
| |
| 19:49 | Next thing pluging in a usbkey on the client... folder comes up, but no way to unmount it?
| |
| 19:49 | People search for safe unmount...
| |
| 19:49 | <petre> you don't need to unmount it, it's done automatically after 2 seconds of inactivity
| |
| 19:49 | just unplug it
| |
| 19:49 | other OSs are lacking in this area ;-)
| |
| 19:50 | <anco> oh that's good to know.
| |
| 19:50 | so you are not using the thinclient manager if the server is in a corner...
| |
| 19:50 | <petre> just tell the users to close the folder, count to 2, then unplug
| |
| 19:51 | I don't think the thinclient manager has to be run on the server, but I haven't tried it yet.
| |
| 19:52 | <anco> I liked the possibility to set the client dark for a moment. Strong option for teacher to get interrest of all students.
| |
| 19:53 | I use this edubuntu since two weeks now in a prison in Bamako and in a little cybercafe
| |
| 19:53 | <petre> K12LTSP has fl_teachertool, which does similar things
| |
| 19:53 | what country?
| |
| 19:53 | <anco> Mali west Africa
| |
| 19:53 | <petre> cool
| |
| 19:53 | <anco> where are you using K12LTSP
| |
| 19:54 | I did not try that one yet.
| |
| 19:54 | <petre> Minnesota, US
| |
| 19:54 | K12LTSP is Fedora + LTSP
| |
| 19:54 | all in one package
| |
| 19:55 | <anco> I use Ubuntu for over two years now on my laptop but I'm very new to Edubuntu and LTSP
| |
| 19:55 | <petre> Edubuntu is more cutting edge, as it's LTSP 5, whereas K12LTSP is still LTSP 4.2
| |
| 19:55 | <anco> Nice you are in school setup? With many clients?
| |
| 19:56 | <petre> but I think K12LTSP is more...a complete package
| |
| 19:56 | Also, LTSP 5 uses LDM, LTSP Display Manager, which uses encryption between the client & server
| |
| 19:56 | that's good in a security context, but there's a performance hit
| |
| 19:57 | <anco> I have in prison only two clients and the server. Where our youthworker tries to teach the kids in prison some knowledge to get more chance for a real job
| |
| 19:57 | <petre> K12LTSP still uses GDM (or KDM) and can use lesser machines for the clients
| |
| 19:57 | <anco> so in prison I make the same error, using the server as one workstation too..
| |
| 19:58 | <petre> it matters more that you just use it rather than hair-splitting over which version
| |
| 19:58 | <anco> That sounds interesting K12LTSP, because I use fairly old machines.
| |
| 19:58 | <petre> 100mhz Pentium will work for clients with K12LTSP
| |
| 19:58 | <anco> I have another 15 p2 200mhz available for future setup
| |
| 19:59 | <petre> those will work fine for K12LTSP, not sure about the minimum for Edubuntu
| |
| 19:59 | <anco> I tried a p133 with edubuntu... takes nearly 5 minutes to boot
| |
| 19:59 | edubuntu asks on their website for minimal P2 200mhz
| |
| 19:59 | <petre> Try K12LTSP; P133 client will work fine
| |
| 20:00 | But...K12LTSP is 6 CDs, or one 4GB DVD, takes a while to download
| |
| 20:00 | <anco> Especially the graphical login is irritating in edubuntu
| |
| 20:01 | if you mistype the login name and or password it takes upto 40 seconds to get another chance to do it right....
| |
| 20:01 | <petre> what's irritating about it?
| |
| 20:01 | Yeah, that's the LDM.
| |
| 20:01 | It's interesting technology, but that's why I think K12LTSP is better at this point
| |
| 20:01 | That may change down the road.
| |
| 20:02 | <anco> What is used in K12LTSP for this login? or actually I don't want a login. I just need a workstation ready after a boot but did not find how to do that..
| |
| 20:02 | <petre> I'll be right back, I have to put my son to bed...
| |
| 20:03 | <anco> thanks see you soon
