I think the problem is more in the other way
06:09
to receive audio from the clients
06:10
Hmmm

Maybe Pulseaudio, I've not tried it yet

06:21
now i need usb and local device support
06:21
any idea
06:21
am downlaoding fuse
06:21
<f3ew>
envite, phones :P
06:22
<envite>
ltsp4.2 works great with usb local devices
06:22
and yes, you need fuse to do it
06:22
<root>
ok
06:22
<f3ew>
Hmmm
06:23
<envite>
f3ew: I know. but a usb phone plugged in the client is not more than a speaker and a microphone
06:23
thus you need to send audio in two ways

root: wow- old kernel. why not just upgrade to a newer kernel? fuse has been in the kernel since 2.6.11 or 2.6.14 something like that
07:02
if you need to compile against your current kernel, you'll need the kernel *source* (which you can get from the distro's repository)

gadi one more thing
07:21
i agve installed fuse
07:21
i add fuse group manually
07:21
is that right
07:21
<Gadi>
take a look at Step 11 in the link above
07:22
it talks about things that might happen when you install fuse yourself
07:22
doesnt matter that you are using novell
07:22
that link should still help troubleshoot

<happywithed>
Hello there.
07:50
<moquist>
happywithed: Hi.
07:50
<happywithed>
I recently installed an Edubuntu classroom and would like some help with some configuration issues
07:50
Here is a diagram of the setup http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21271/
07:51* moquist prepares a batch of Instant Respect(TM)
07:52
<happywithed>
The problem, as you can see, is that I have two different subnets. One serving my LTSP clients and one serving my *other* machines
07:52
<highvoltage>
moquist: ooh
07:52
<moquist>
happywithed: can you do DHCP on the Edubuntu system instead of the router?
07:53
<happywithed>
Moquist. That's exactly what I would like to do
07:53
<moquist>
Instant Respect was an inter-channel joke...
07:53
<happywithed>
I just don' t know how
07:53
OK, LOL
07:54
<moquist>
happywithed: connect the switch above the Mac to the switch under the Edubuntu server...? that's one way that would get the job done.
07:54
Oh, right. You need the routing.
07:55
happywithed: 1) stop DHCP on the router. 2) connect the DHCP interface of the Edubuntu server to the switch above the Mac.
07:55
happywithed: 3) connect the TCs to the same switch, or connect their switch to the Mac switch.
07:55
<happywithed>
Do you mean to physically connect an ethernet wire between the two switches in the diagram?
07:55
<moquist>
happywithed: 3) connect the TCs to the Mac switch, or connect their switch to the Mac switch.
07:55
happywithed: Sure, that's the second formulation of #3. :)
07:56
happywithed: You'll additionally have to make sure that the dhcpd configuration on the Edubuntu server has the correct router, DNS servers, and (perhapse) netbios-name-server info.
07:56
<happywithed>
I think I tried that already and it didn't work, thus the current config
07:57
<moquist>
Oh.
07:57
What I've described is exactly how I recommend that people do it, when possible.
07:57
<happywithed>
The problem is that the Edubuntu only does dhcp to thin clients for security reasons.
07:57
<moquist>
That's what we do in each of our 10-or-so schools.
07:58
happywithed: I don't follow you there. You can do DHCP anywhere you want, except that you need to be able to tell TCs where to get their kernels and root filesystems.
07:58
<happywithed>
Ok, let me see if I understand. 1) I stop the dhcp router (the Lynsys, right?)
07:59
<moquist>
happywithed: It's generally the most convenient just to leave DHCP on the Edubuntu server.
07:59
1) yep, stop DHCP on the Linksys(sp?).
07:59
<f3ew>
Linksys
07:59
<happywithed>
2) I connect the internet raw wire to the edubuntu server directly
07:59
<moquist>
f3ew: yeah, but I wasn't sure that's what happywithed has. :)
08:00
2) Nope, connect the Edubuntu server to the Linksys, which (I trust) is serving as a firewall for your network.
08:00
2) Nope, connect the Edubuntu server to the Linksys, which (I trust) is serving as a router&firewall for your network.
08:00
<happywithed>
OK, so on one I don't physically disconnect the Lynksys router, but I just dissable DHCP, right?
08:00
<moquist>
happywithed: Right.
08:01
<happywithed>
Yes, the lynksys is servering as router/firewall
08:02
Now, on 3) I connect all the machines including the TCs, printers, Macs and, dare I say, Windows machines to the same switch?
08:02
<moquist>
happywithed: for example, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21273/
08:02
happywithed: yep.
08:02
happywithed: Wait, scratch that.
08:02* moquist fixes the paste
08:04joebaker has joined #ltsp
08:04
<happywithed>
OK, just as a test. I am going to connect a WinXP Laptop to the switch serving the TCs
08:04
<moquist>
http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21274/
08:05highvoltage has quit IRC
08:05highvoltage has joined #ltsp
08:05
<moquist>
happywithed: OK. That should work fine as long as you have "option routers 192.168.0.1;" in your /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file.
08:05
<happywithed>
Let me see
08:06
<moquist>
happywithed: and (probably) "option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1;"
08:07
happywithed: If you wish you can run 'apt-get install bind9' on the edubuntu server and put "option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.254;" in your dhcpd.conf instead.
08:07
happywithed: If you have a netmask of 255.255.255.0, then the above IP addresses won't work, BTW.
08:08
happywithed: I recommend changing the IP address of the edubuntu server to 192.168.0.254, and make sure dhcpd.conf is handing out address is the 192.168.0.* range instead.
08:08* moquist munges the paste again
08:08
<joebaker>
You can reference a dns server outside your subnet so long as the "option routers" is correct.
08:09
<happywithed>
Ok,here is what I have on /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21276/
08:10
My "option routers" points to 192.168.1.1 instead
08:11
In my setup eth0 is on 192.168.1.1 and is the interface to the TC
08:11
eth1 is on 192.168.0.1 and is the interface to the router
08:14
BTW, here is my /etc/network/interfaces file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21277/
08:14
<joebaker>
happywithed: Option routers should point to the LTSP server itself at 192.168.1.254 shouldn't it? Your drawing shows the Edubuntu server's IP address as 192.168.1.254
08:15
<happywithed>
Yes, the edubuntu server is at that IP address
08:15
<joebaker>
Is the edubuntu server also the gateway?
08:16
<moquist>
happywithed: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21278/
08:16
<happywithed>
Yes, but just for the TCs
08:16
<moquist>
joebaker: But he doesn't actually want the edubuntu server to be a rounter, if I understand him correctly.
08:16
<joebaker>
...the gateway for the thin clients... ok. the dhcp server you're setting up is just for the thin client subnet?
08:17
<moquist>
happywithed: Do you *want* the edubuntu server to be a router/gateway? I thought you didn't.
08:17cliebow_ has joined #ltsp
08:17
<happywithed>
Actually yes, but I would like to have them on the same subnet.
08:17
<joebaker>
thanks moquist. I joined the conversation half way in. I was impressed by happywithed's diagrams so I thought I'd jump in.
08:18
<happywithed>
I would prefer to keep the current router as a router, firewall and gateway
08:18
<cliebow_>
anyone else using winblows dhcp to pass pxe options?>
08:18
<moquist>
joebaker: Ha! happywithed was told in #edubuntu that he would get "instant respect" by flashing those diagrams in here. :)
08:18
<joebaker>
:)
08:18
<moquist>
cliebow_: Not lately.
08:18
<happywithed>
LOL
08:18
<cliebow_>
moquist:pingoo
08:18
<moquist>
cliebow_: pongo! purdy!
08:18
<cliebow_>
any p[lace where unh courses discussed?
08:19* moquist remembers the "barking chain"
08:19
<moquist>
cliebow_: Not yet, but I'll be working like a mad hatter on that today.
08:19
<cliebow_>
cool..got some interest here..
08:20
<happywithed>
OK, once I change my setup, what do I need to do to stop, start, reboot, rehash, replenish, respect, my services? ;-)
08:20
<cliebow_>
bad or missing discoveryserver mean ought to you?
08:20
<joebaker>
/etc/init.d/dhcp3-server stop
08:20
<cliebow_>
i have next-server(option 66
08:20
<joebaker>
/etc/init.d/dhcp3-server start
08:21
<moquist>
happywithed: I think you want a dhcpd.conf like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21279/
08:21
<cliebow_>
and 67 just like the last pxe machine
08:21
<moquist>
happywithed: That's assuming that your router (192.168.0.1) is providing DNS service.
08:21
happywithed: /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
08:21
happywithed: sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
08:21
<happywithed>
yes, it is providing DNS as well
08:22
<moquist>
cliebow_: Er, um, nope. Sorry.
08:22
<joebaker>
Do you actually have a machine/router at 192.168.1.1 ?
08:22
<moquist>
joebaker: I don't think he does, but that didn't matter before 'cuz TCs didn't need the router.
08:22
<joebaker>
probably true....
08:23
<happywithed>
moquist: so the option routers should be left as 192.168.0.1, right?
08:23
<joebaker>
But if you put a laptop into that subnet... and wanted internet access....
08:23
<moquist>
happywithed: Yes. that should point to your actual router.
08:23
joebaker: exactly. that's what we're fixing. :)
08:24
<happywithed>
joebaker: 192.168.1.1 is the interface (eth0) on the edubuntu server serving the TCs
08:24
<joebaker>
Does Edubuntu enable IP packet forwarding by default as a gateway/router? I use Ubuntu with LTSP-server-standalone added.
08:25
I'll get you the magic IPTables command for enabling packet forwarding... one second.
08:25
<moquist>
happywithed: But you're changing eth0 to be 192.168.0.254, right?
08:25
joebaker: No, it doesn't automagically do masquerading. But happywithed doesn't want it to, anyway.
08:26
happywithed: Quite honestly, this would be simpler if you just removed eth1 from your edubuntu server. :)
08:26
<cliebow_>
joebaker..push that on to me as well
08:26
<moquist>
happywithed: Then we wouldn't be confused about its role (which should be "to sit idle").
08:26
<happywithed>
I see
08:27
that's interesting, because the edubuntu manual suggests a server with two nics
08:27
<meduxa>
hi, we are going to do some benchmark in college classroom where we are going to use XEN + LTSP on the server and some thin clients (e2300 among them),some recicled computers and some new PC's
08:27
<moquist>
happywithed: Yeah, that's for a different setup than what you're aiming for.
08:27
<happywithed>
right
08:27
<meduxa>
what tools do you thinks are interesting to benchmark the client
08:28
we are using ltsp 4.2
08:28
<happywithed>
I have no problem removing eth1 if that would solve the problem
08:28
<moquist>
happywithed: They're recommending something that's really easy to drop into a much larger network where the Edubuntu admin has much less control than you seem to have over your network.
08:29
happywithed: It won't actually solve any problems, it would just simplify our discussion. So now that we've discussed it, that's probably sufficient. :)

08:30
any idea
08:30
<joebaker>
happywithed, moquist.... edit this file -> /etc/sysctl.conf remove the comment symbol "#" from this line... net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 then reboot
08:31
<moquist>
happywithed: I think you want an /etc/networking/interfaces file like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21280/
08:31jsgotangco has quit IRC
08:32
<moquist>
joebaker: but happywithed doesn't *want* that.
08:33
happywithed: the interfaces file I posted just swaps 'eth0' for 'eth1' and vice-versa, and then comments out the (new) 'auto eth1' line, so eth1 won't come up by default.
08:34
<cliebow_>
gd windows
08:34
<happywithed>
ok let me recap: 0) stop dhcp on the router 192.168.0.1 0.1) Change my /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21279/ 1) stop DHCP on the router 2) connect the DHCP interface of the Edubuntu server to the switch above the Mac. 3) connect the TCs to the same switch, or connect their switch to the Mac switch.
08:35
Then /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server stop and /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server start
08:35
<cliebow_>
root:you arent really root are you?
08:35
<joebaker>
happywithed: You don't currently run DHCP on your network do you?
08:35
<moquist>
happywithed: Sure. The point is that you only have one Edubuntu network interface in use, and it's on the same subnet as all your other machines and the connection from your router. You run DHCP on the Edubuntu server instead of the router.

joebaker: his router (192.168.0.1) currently runs DHCP.

Two dhcp servers on the same "collision domain" is a very bad idea unless you're an expert and have a great deal of control over the clients.

how i can remove a program from menu in gnome, so that it removes it from all users?
08:37
<moquist>
_EXP: rm /usr/share/applications/program.desktop

<happywithed>
I think I only want one DHCP server that will be running on the Edubuntu server as mosquist suggested
08:37
<moquist>
_EXP: Of course, any smart user can still execute the program from a shell, or simply create a new launcher.

Tell me about the 192.168.0.1 machine . Is it a Linux box? Can you put your dhcpd.conf file into it?
08:38
<happywithed>
I am dissabling the DHCP as in step 0 in my recapt above
08:38
<joebaker>
happywithed: never mind, that's a good plan so long as you only have one DHCP server runnign.

http://www.ducea.com/2006/08/01/how-to-enable-ip-forwarding-in-linux/ happywithed: Here's a page which discusses making a linux box pass traffic between two seperate "networks" or "collision domains" where each network card is dedicated to it's own subnet.
08:50
<happywithed>
what do I do with my my /etc/network/interfaces file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21277/
08:51
joebaker: thanks for the link
08:52
<joebaker>
happywithed: if you get rid of the second network interface, you need to change the subnet for everything to 192.168.0
08:52
<happywithed>
OK
08:53
So, I'll comment out the eth1 block and change everything on eth0 to 192.168.0.* right?
08:53
<joebaker>
Some people run multiple subnets on a single ethernet interface, but that's advanced stuff. It can be done, but I wouldn't recommend it.

That happens for me for example when removing a usb memory stick just before lbussd on the server has added the icon on the user's desktop.
09:08
<root>
lsmod |grep fuse
09:08
fuse 58008 0
09:08
<vmlintu>
The problem seems to be that ltspfsd doesn't call am_umount when the connection breaks while the device is mounted and I got it working better by adding an extra am_umount in ltspfsd, but I'm not sure if that's the right way to fix it.
09:09

morning, sbalneav

09:17
sbalneav: That happens for me for example when removing a usb memory stick just before lbussd on the server has added the icon on the user's desktop.
09:17
<root>
i /etc/ld.so.conf file i have an entry /usr/lib
09:18
<ogra>
sbalneav, i decided to not wait on the second udev run to finish ... that could break badly but gains us around 30sec
09:18
<sbalneav>
vmlintu: This is on 4.2?
09:18
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: yes
09:18
sbalneav: The problem seems to be that ltspfsd doesn't call am_umount when the connection breaks while the device is mounted and I got it working better by adding an extra am_umount call in ltspfsd.c, but I'm not sure if that's the right way to fix it.
09:19

09:19

i did still link -s /usr/local/lib/libfuse.so.2
09:19
i run that but still fuse is not found
09:19
<Gadi>
ah
09:19
<ogra>
sbalneav, the "Loading hardware drivers ..." step is supposed to wait until udev has settled i let it run in the background and just move on with the boot ... it seems not to break but i wonder what happens with faster clients, there will be races
09:19
<Gadi>
add /usr/local/lib to ld.so.conf
09:20
then run "ldconfig" as root
09:20
it should show up in ldd then
09:20
<root>
i did
09:20
still no use
09:20
hay see the link u send me
09:20
its says after compliing the fuse from source
09:20
go to /usr/lib
09:20
duir
09:20
<sbalneav>
vmlintu: If the connection's broken, that instance of the ltspfsd will die. So, probably, I should call the umount as standard procedure before I exit.
09:20
<root>
and run this link -s /usr/local/lib/libfuse.so.2
09:21
i did ln -s /usr/local/lib/libfuse.so.2 instead of link -s
09:21
<sbalneav>
ogra: Wonder why udev takes so long on that box. 30 seconds seems a LONG time for udev.
09:21
Normally udev's quite fast.
09:22

2.6.5
09:26
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: Could ltspfsd somehow figure out that the device was removed and it failed for that reason?
09:26
<sbalneav>
Fuse doesn't work reliably with anything 2.6.9
09:27
<root>
gadi i recompile it and run ldd /usr/sbin/ltspfs
09:27
it still says libfuse not found
09:27
<ogra>
yeah .5 is ancient and surely not very secure
09:27
<sbalneav>
vmlintu: no, that's not ltspfsd's job. ltspfsd is just reading and writing to files on a filesystem, it doesn't have any concept of devices. That should be udev's job.
09:27
sorry, anything before 2.6.9
09:27
<Gadi>
root: can you simply install a newer kernel?
09:28
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: What happens now is the the users don't wait long enough for ltspfsd to call umount after initial mount as they think that the usb stick works because it takes a few seconds for the icon to appear on the desktop
09:28
sbalneav: So I should go to udev to call umount on the mount point that ltspfsd left behind?
09:29
<root>
gadi what u mean
09:29
simple install new kernel on ?
09:29
<Gadi>
root: upgrade the kernel on the server
09:29
to 2.6.14 or greater
09:30
<sbalneav>
There shouldn't need to be a umount
09:30
vmlintu: if you take a look in the remove_fstab_entry, there's a umount in there.
09:31
I'm confused. Are you getting a hung mount on the CLIENT, or a hung ltspfs mount on the SERVER?
09:31
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: on the client
09:31
<sbalneav>
So, people are pulling the stick, and if you're on a text console on the client, the mount is still there?
09:32
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: The problem is quite time critical and it happens only when you remove the device after ltspfsd has done initial mount on it and before it has called am_umount for the first time after lbussd has created the icon
09:32
sbalneav: yes
09:32
<sbalneav>
That shouldn't be happening, as the remove_fstab_entry does a umount -l
09:33
<vmlintu>
sbalneav: where should the remove_fstab_entry be?
09:33
<sbalneav>
On 4.2, I can't remember. /usr/lib/udev, or /lib/udev
09:34
cd /opt/ltsp/i386 ; find . -name "remove_fstab_entry" will find it for sure :)

root: you need to get 32 bit fuse libraries.
09:56
<ogra>
and in the default branch
09:56
<root>
gadi i have on one ln
09:56
its in /usr/lib

<moquist>
ogra: will there be any difficulty testing the C greeter on an otherwise feisty system?
09:56
<root>
should i remove it
09:57
<Gadi>
yes
09:57
<root>
sbalneav
09:57
<Gadi>
remove the symlinks you made
09:57
<root>
if these are 32bit then what to do
09:57
<Gadi>
and do 'make install' again
09:57
<ogra>
moquist, it was written on feisty :)
09:57
<root>
it wont work for 64 bit
09:57
<moquist>
ogra: great. :)
09:58* ogra tries to get used to the classmate keyboard
09:58
<sbalneav>
root: How you get 32 bit fuse libraries on your SuSE box is really a distro problem. I'd look for help on that in the suse channel.
09:58
<moquist>
ogra: I'm hoping I can come up with some simple steps to get feisty to boot those infernal laptops more quickly, and thereby sell my boss' boss on Edubuntu.
09:59
<ogra>
moquist, i have an evil trick for you if you dont tell anybody ;) i just shoved off 30secs of the ltsp5 bootprocess with it
09:59
<Blinny>
jammcq: The VESA driver works fine with no X_VIDEORAM, but I can't go higher than 800x600
10:00
<moquist>
sbalneav, jammcq: I don't have an LTSP 4.2 system available ATM. Is the kernel config included in there somewhere, or is there an easier way for me to get a copy? (such as asking in #ltsp ;)

<moquist>
ogra: Oooooo, I'm *SO* up for evil tricks right now. how shall we arrange for me to learn this evil trick?
10:01
<ogra>
jammcq, btw, measuring with break=top-bottom showed that your kernel is pretty exactly 11secs faster
10:01
<sbalneav>
ogra: bzr get http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ogra/ltsp/ldm-greeter, right?
10:02
<ogra>
moquist, edit the udev initscript and comment the udevmonitor and udevtrigger/settle blocks
10:02
sbalneav, yep
10:02
<moquist>
ogra: will do. (not today at home, but tomorrow at work)
10:02
ogra: thanks!

sbalneav, you want the diff of the last two versions, that should be all changes to the default tree
10:03
<sbalneav>
ogra: Yikes! Python blows chunks on that!
10:03
<ogra>
moquist, tell me if it worked, i'm considering to use it as default if we dont see any breakage around
10:03
<moquist>
sbalneav: does that mean "this is way faster than the python implementation"?
10:03
<root>
gadi no use

but its empty
10:04dean_za_ has joined #ltsp
10:04
<ogra>
yeah, saw it
10:04
<sbalneav>
root: right, because you have 64 bit libraries for fuse, and an ltspfs program compiled for 32 bit.
10:05
<root>
so what to do
10:05
i have to run usb
10:05
any idea waht to do
10:05
<sbalneav>
yeah, get your fuse libraries going with 32 bit.
10:06
<root>
but i have 64 bit machine
10:06
its hp prolient
10:06
<sbalneav>
right, so you need 32 bit libraries. You need to compile them for 32 bit.
10:08
<root>
hum
10:08
ok
10:08root has left #ltsp

10:09
I'm surprised that suse doesn't have fuse as an installable package.
10:09vanya has quit IRC
10:09
<sbalneav>
An the kernel you're running is like, getting close to two years old.
10:11
root: usually how you do this is install the 32 bit library package that your distro provides for fuse, and that works.

Are you guys still here? mosquit? Joebaker?
10:15
<sbalneav>
ogra: That's the binaries
10:15
<sutula>
Does anyone know what needs to work so that my clients can be configured from lts.conf symbolically, rather than with IP only. For example, [192.168.1.131] works but [thin1] doesn't
10:16
<ogra>
sbalneav, nope
10:16
sbalneav, http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/ldm-new-greeter.tgz is binary stuff
10:16
<Blinny>
sutula: Probably a hosts or dns problem.
10:17
<sbalneav>
ogra: ah, my mistake.

10:17
<happywithed>
good luck
10:17
<ogra>
whee
10:17* sutula notes that this he's using the Debian/Ubuntu packaging (ltsp-server) and the clients don't seem to be able to resolve any hostnames...maybe that's part of the problem
10:17
<ogra>
sbalneav, dont forget, use update-manager ;)

OK, I guess moquist is gone and joebaker must be busy
10:19
<sbalneav>
happywithed: anything we can help you with?
10:19
<happywithed>
I need some help resolving some remaining issues with my ltsp setup. Here is what I did:
10:19
<Blinny>
sutula: Probably, yes. Fix that and you'll resolve the other problem.
10:20
<happywithed>
I had the following setup initially http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21271/
10:20
<sbalneav>
ogra: compile.sh? Looks like someone needs their C programming friend to get them autoconf'd :)
10:20
<ogra>
shudder ... autoconf
10:20
<happywithed>
I changed it to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21278/ on moquist suggestion
10:20
at the same time I did the following:
10:20
<sbalneav>
ogra: it's not so bad, after the lobotomy.
10:21
<ogra>
hahaha
10:21
being able to build it -static would be nice ...
10:21
<happywithed>
stopped the dchp server on the router because my intention is to have one single dhcp running on the edubuntu server
10:22
<ogra>
even though i suspect we'll get several megabytes
10:22tiagovaz has quit IRC
10:22
<happywithed>
then I changed my /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf as follows: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21279/
10:23
<sbalneav>
happywithed: Wait, didn't I get you all sorted out before with the thin clients hanging off the second ethernet port?
10:23
<happywithed>
and then restarted the /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server
10:24
I remember you nick, so maybe. But I wanted to have all the thin clients and other machines in the lab on the same dhcp instead of two subnets as in the first diagram
10:25
<sutula>
ogra: With Debian/Ubuntu setup, my client seems to be taking resolv.conf from /opt/ltsp/i386/etc ...does this sound right?
10:25
<happywithed>
So far everything is working fine and they seem to be working fine with some minor problems
10:25sepski has joined #ltsp

Problem 1) I can ping from my non-thin-client machines to my thin client machines, but not the other way around
10:26Mineque has quit IRC
10:26
<happywithed>
sbalneav: I am trying to solve that issue now. Can you help?
10:26Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp
10:26
<ogra>
sutula, yes, you dont need it, if you urgently want values in there, set DNS_SERVER and SEARCH_DOMAIN in lts.conf
10:26
<sepski>
happywithed, iptables --list ?
10:28
<happywithed>
sepski: do you mean /etc/iftab ?
10:28
<sbalneav>
happywithed: When you say, ping from my thin clients, are you logging into the thin client, opening a window in gnome, and running the ping?
10:28larry has quit IRC
10:28
<sutula>
ogra: The reason I *think* I need correct values in there is that without it being correct, the clients don't seem to get their own name symbolically, and thus can't get their config values out of lts.conf by hostname (only by IP)
10:28
<ogra>
sutula, but everything in ltsp5 is ip based so there shouldnt be a need for that file
10:29
<sutula>
ogra: OK, so getting away from hostnames for this?
10:29
<ogra>
well, we usually use MAC adresses ... but if you want to have it name based, feel free
10:29
its just involving a lot of extra work
10:30
like setting up a DNS or maintaining a big hosts file ..
10:30
<happywithed>
sbalneav: wait, I was logging from a thin client to my server as admin
10:30
I'll try to log as a different user and try that
10:30
<sutula>
ogra: OK, I see the tradeoffs...thanks
10:30* sutula says "thanks" to Blinny as well
10:31
<happywithed>
sbalneav: It didn't work as a different user
10:31
I can ping from the server to any of the thin clients or PCs, but not from the thin client to the PCs or viceversa
10:32
I can ping the server from the PCs, though
10:32
and from the thing client to the server

sbalneav: correction, I can ping from the PCs to the thin client, but not from the thin client to the PC
10:36
<sbalneav>
happywithed: ok, can you ping something else?
10:36
like say, 205.200.162.11?
10:37
<happywithed>
For instance: I have a WinXP with ip address 192.168.0.249 and a thin client on 192.168.0.248, I can ping from the WinXP to the thin client, but not the other way around
10:37
I'll try
10:38
Yes, from both
10:39
<sbalneav>
ok, then there's nothing wrong with the edubuntu box. Perhaps the firewall on the windows machine is blocking ICMP ECHO REQUESTS
10:39
<happywithed>
how do I check that?
10:40
Wait, that's a silly question.
10:40
<sbalneav>
205.200.162.11 is my firewall.
10:41
if you can ping that, then the edubuntu box is sending pings. You also respond to pings, because the windows boxes can ping the edubuntu box.
10:41
therefore, problem is on your windows box.
10:43
<happywithed>
OK, then that's fine.
10:43
I really don't need to ping to my Wintels.

What I need is to be able to setup all the machines in the lab, thin clients, wintels and macs to share a couple of printers and eventually the same NFS and LDAP
10:45
<Blinny>
jammcq: So in a chat with Dell about this crashing box, they say that the video ram settings (1MB) cannot be changed. Does this mean I'm stuck with VESA?
10:45

But for now, I would appreciate some help with setting up my DHCP server on edubuntu, which currently serves all the machines to share the printer

print to a network printer
10:55
also, one of the network printers is pretty old and needs to be setup on static ip, can this be done with dhcp3?
10:56
<cliebow_>
sure
10:56
<sbalneav>
ok, well, printing is independent of dhcp.
10:57
What kind of printer are they, and how are they connected to the network>
10:57
<cliebow_>
sbalneav: what perl operator will test if there is a remainder after a division
10:57
<sbalneav>
?
10:57
cliebow_: buhhh, %?
10:57
<cliebow_>
like 7/7 is a natural..no remainder...
10:57
6/7 would have a remainder
10:58
<sbalneav>
6 % 7?
10:58
<Blinny>
modulus?

<sbalneav>
Do they have internal network cards?
10:59
And do the other machines print to them currently?
10:59
<happywithed>
Yes
10:59
Yes
10:59
<Blinny>
cliebow_: Yeah, just test if int1 % int2 ==0 .. If so, then there's no remainder
11:00
<happywithed>
gnome-cups-add can see both,
11:00
I was able to confirm that while we were chatting
11:01
<sbalneav>
ok, so all you should need to do in Edubuntu is set up an lpd connected printer.
11:01
That should work fine.
11:01
<happywithed>
I just sent a test page to the HP 7400 from a thin client and it worked fine
11:02
How do I set up an lpd?
11:02J45p3r_ has joined #ltsp
11:02
<cliebow_>
Blinny, does that imply addition?
11:03
<Blinny>
cliebow_: I don't understand the question. The % operator simply returns the remainder when you divide int1 by int2.
11:03
10 % 3 == 1
11:03
10 % 5 == 0
11:03
<sbalneav>
happywithed: if you set up a printer, and sent a test page, you're already done :)

I need help
12:05
I instaled Ubuntu 7.04 and ltsp 5
12:06
installation went ok
12:06
I have 5 terminal clients
12:06
but only 4 wont to boot up
12:06
fifth wont
12:06
and it is not alwas the same one
12:07
it is last started
12:07
It promts error with nfs.premount

could you paste the error to the pastebot ?
12:08
!pastebot

hi, vagrantc :) nf1 is with me. We figured out the problem with the client with the kernel panic. We tested it on another LTSP server, Now after the machine boots up to LDM, instead of showing ldm it crashes with black screen... Nothing on the thin client responds, we can't ping it from the server

plamengr: how much memory does it have?
12:15

with some output
12:15

plamengr: maybe try running memtest86+ on it
12:15
<plamengr>
by spec 128 mb

plamengr: sounds like it *might* be bad memory ... run memtest on it
12:16
<plamengr>
the client is integrated in monitor, there's only usb and LAN, no HDD
12:17
<vagrantc>
so run memtest on it
12:17
that's my best idea at this point
12:18
<plamengr>
Unfortunately, we can't load any OS :(
12:18
<vagrantc>

can you send a link?

and boot
12:22
might have to symlink /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/memtest86+ to something without the + ... some versions of syslinux are kind of stupid

What is $monthstart?
13:01
<cliebow_>
heh..i just ant to break out to the next $i if a variable is 0
13:01
if you use localtime in perl it will tell you what day the month starts
13:02
<Blinny>
as in, 'Friday'?
13:02
<cliebow_>
well it would give 5

Do you have any experience with AMD Geode LX Video cards and LTSP5? We can't choose right driver

13:03
Blinny:$i starts at one and goes up one everytime trhough the loop until it reaches days_in_month..
13:04
which is 31 for may
13:04
<Gadi>
plamengr: have you tried installing the AMD driver in universe?
13:04
<Blinny>
Why wouldn't $sunday be $saturday+1? Also, you should check into breaking out using the continue statement. It's executed just before the conditional is evaluated again.
13:04
<Gadi>
you would have to modify /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/apt/sources.list
13:04
and apt-get it into the chroot
13:05

I just want it to bail if it is Saturday or Sunday..heh..you see where i am going

"write a calendar program in php"...
13:06
;)
13:06* Gadi wonders if he has any code on his lappy
13:06
<Blinny>
cliebow_: then you'll want to look at the 'last' operator to break out of the loop
13:06vagrantc has quit IRC
13:07
<cliebow_>
Gadi:i thought you gave me a "next if "framework if i wanted to break out of a loop
13:07
<Gadi>
next will go to the next iteration in the loop
13:07
<cliebow_>
i have a calendar program i want to tweak to only show Mon. thru Fri
13:08
<Blinny>
Yeah then you want 'next' not 'last'
13:08
<Gadi>
cliebow_: you never want to subtract from a mod
13:08
you should subtract and then mod
13:09
otherwise the mod is useless
13:09
<cliebow_>
i wondered about the implications of that
13:09
<Blinny>
cliebow_: You could also substr the localtime return value and check for !Sat || !Sun
13:10* Gadi likes the exercise for interns because many programmers hate/don't use math
13:10
<Gadi>
oddly enough
13:10
:)
13:10
<cliebow_>
k..ill play with that..
13:10
<Blinny>
cliebow_: ala if (substr((localtime ()), 0, 3) != 'Sat' && substr((localtime ()), 0, 3)!='Sun') then { do_yo_thang();}
13:10
<Gadi>
cliebow_: if the result of the mod is 0, its sunday, if its 6 its saturday
13:10
nbd
13:12
<cliebow_>
Blinny: localtime gives you.. current..not fiuture ..information ..that make any sense to you?
13:12

cliebow_: Yes. I'll shush now (;

if the hardware on the clientside is capeble of running 3D, is it than possible with ltsp5?

not directfb or dri

er, method
14:34
<yanu>
i just mean beryl , but that's glx i suppose
14:34
<Gadi>
and you would need to bypass ssh, i believe
14:34
write directly to the xserver
14:34* Gadi is not sure about beryl
14:35
<Gadi>
tho, it would certainly strain ur network
14:35
with a lot of folks doing it
14:36

hmm, beryl must be running localy, right?
14:36
<Gadi>
no
14:36
im not sure
14:36
good question
14:36
:)
14:36
<yanu>
it become complicated
14:37
<Gadi>
have you tried launching it from the terminal?
14:37
<yanu>
the windowmanager must have access to the hardware directly
14:37

it most likely will not work through ssh

<sutula>
Rob_F: I didn't know about the wiki page you pointed at, so probably can't help all that much, but I followed the *very* brief instructions in /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server/README.Debian and it worked fine
17:40
Rob_F: I recall the only significant manual step was looking at dhcpd.conf from the examples/ subdir of the above dir and integrating it with my (already working) dhcpd.conf
17:43
Rob_F: Also, are those instructions dated? The Debian Etch release contains code that uses ltsp 5. Someone else here may know for sure.
17:43
<Rob_F>
Thanks - that folder (/usr/share/doc/ltsp-server) does not even exist on this machine

Rob_F: Which Debian version?
17:45
<Rob_F>
4.0
17:46
<sutula>
Rob_F: Have you installed the ltsp-server package?
17:47
dpkg -l ltsp-server
17:48* sutula needs to take off, but notes that he removed all the "by hand" attempts at getting ltsp running, "apt-get install ltsp-server", then followed the afore-mentioned README.Debian
17:48
<Rob_F>
installing now (Why was that not in the instructions I used I wonder)
17:49
Thanks for your tips
17:49
<sutula>
Rob_F: My guess is that the instructions predate the ltsp-server package being viable
17:50
Rob_F: You might want to purge (or be aware of) your attempts to install it by hand. The ltsp-build-client script does a lot of what's in the wiki instructions and there might be conflicts.
17:50* sutula runs
