| 07:06 | <EXP_> anyone can help me with HP photosmart C4280 and LTSP 4.2? It's supported in HPLIB, but my machine does not recognize it...
| |
| 07:07 | printin is working OK
| |
| 07:09 | <ogra> i dont think 4.2 shipped hplip ... but i might be wrong
| |
| 07:11 | <EXP_> i have installed hplib
| |
| 07:11 | <ogra> in the client system ?
| |
| 07:11 | <EXP_> yes. to client
| |
| 07:19 | sorry. printer/scanner is connected to client I meant
| |
| 07:21 | sane-find-scanner finds the scanner, but when i try scanimage -L i won't recogize any scanners
| |
| 07:23 | Guaraldo has joined #ltsp | |
| 07:25 | <EXP_> ogra, any suggestions?
| |
| 07:26 | <ogra> EXP_, not really i'm not really familiar with the old 4.2 code
| |
| 07:27 | <EXP_> ok

| 09:07 | <sbalneav> Morning all
| |
| 09:15 | JonNoob has quit IRC | |
| 09:18 | <monteslu> today's the big day. I go with either k12ltsp5-EL or edubuntu
| |
| 09:19 | <ogra> EL ?
| |
| 09:19 | <monteslu> eneterprise Centos5
| |
| 09:19 | still ltsp4.2
| |
| 09:19 | <ogra> yup
| |
| 09:20 | <monteslu> I've got a working smbldap server I probably won't mess with, but I want to update 2 ltsp servers
| |
| 09:20 | theyre both k12ltsp5, (fedora5 ltsp 4.2)
| |
| 09:20 | how's the load balancing in edubuntu 7.04 ?
| |
| 09:21 | <ogra> moquist and dtrask have such setups running afaik ...
| |
| 09:21 | load balancing by selecting applicaton server is just being implemented in the 7.10 release
| |
| 09:22 | <monteslu> do i just spread tell which clients to hit which servers ?
| |
| 09:22 | that's how I'm doing it now
| |
| 09:22 | have all the clients specified in t ltsp.conf
| |
| 09:22 | <ogra> right that works
| |
| 09:22 | 7.10 will have a server selection dialog in the login manager
| |
| 09:23 | <monteslu> its for a k-8 school. I'd rather have it transparent to the users
| |
| 09:23 | <moquist> monteslu: I recommend using ISC's DHCP failover for two servers.
| |
| 09:24 | <monteslu> moquist!!!
| |
| 09:24 | you get those centos5 patches included in the installer?
| |
| 09:24 | <moquist> monteslu: it's not perfect (I checked once and we had a 2-1 split at our HS), but it's very easy to set up (compared to listing all the hosts) and it's very dynamic. If one server goes down, 1/2 of the TCs will need to reboot, but they'll come up fine on the other server.
| |
| 09:24 | er, um...
| |
| 09:24 | * moquist blushes | |
| 09:25 | <sbalneav> The new host selection code in ldm will easily allow you to use a dhcp failover scheme.
| |
| 09:25 | <moquist> I have a passel of smbldap-related emails in my inbox right now. :p
| |
| 09:25 | sbalneav: how will the two be related?
| |
| 09:26 | sbalneav: i.e., I see no need for a relationship. You can use the LDM Coolness(TM), and also, if you want, you can have DHCP failover running.
| |
| 09:26 | <monteslu> moquist, are you still on k12 ?
| |
| 09:27 | <sbalneav> Yes, exactly.
| |
| 09:30 | <moquist> monteslu: Edubuntu Feisty
| |
| 09:30 | <monteslu> what about your smbldap server for those?
| |
| 09:30 | <ltsppbot> "only for german" pasted "icq sending" (32 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/268
| |
| 09:30 | <moquist> We have a dapper server and an edgy server, and three new feisty servers.
| |
| 09:31 | (in various different schools)
| |
| 09:31 | <monteslu> well, i guess edubunt is the new hotness, I'll pull it down
| |
| 09:31 | feel like I'm letting eric down or something
| |
| 09:31 | <moquist> monteslu: we're using webmin ATM, but planning to switch to the new rumor-has-it "eserver" coolness when possible.
| |
| 09:32 | <monteslu> for administration?
| |
| 09:32 | I've got the computer teacher adding users from the cli :)
| |
| 09:32 | <moquist> monteslu: don't feel like you're letting Eric down. He's on board. IMO, RH and Fedora have let *Eric* down.
| |
| 09:32 | <monteslu> good point
| |
| 09:33 | Ok, I'm pulling down edubuntu classroom server and addon cd
| |
| 09:33 | <moquist> monteslu: Yeah, I have "users" (i.e., my boss ;) who really want a GUI available for user admin. It's not unfair; he's got lots of other things to do, and there's way too much opportunity to screw things up on the command line.
| |
| 09:33 | This is better for everyone (here).
| |
| 09:34 | <monteslu> did you have to add anything to webmin?
| |
| 09:34 | <ogra> monteslu, eric founded edubuntu initially
| |
| 09:34 | <moquist> monteslu: Yep, that's whatcha do. Good luck. :)
| |
| 09:34 | monteslu: A version of the smbldap-installer (now renamed "smbldap-configure") asks the questions and writes out the webmin config file.
| |
| 09:34 | <ogra> monteslu, he was the creator of the spec back two years ago
| |
| 09:35 | <moquist> ogra: were you in any of our LTSP meetings in Sydney?
| |
| 09:35 | <monteslu> cool, then I'm on board
| |
| 09:35 | * moquist is just curious | |
| 09:35 | <ogra> moquist, i was at a packaging training session iirc
| |
| 09:35 | together with dholbach
| |
| 09:35 | <monteslu> moquist, I should be able to point those two new 7.04 servers at a centos4.3 smbldap using your client script right?
| |
| 09:35 | * moquist nods | |
| 09:36 | <moquist> monteslu: sure
| |
| 09:36 | <monteslu> cool. I'm kinda psyched to try something new :)
| |
| 09:36 | <moquist> monteslu: you don't need the new version for that; just run './smbldap ldapclient'
| |
| 09:36 | <monteslu> awesome
| |
| 09:36 | <moquist> monteslu: it is /hawt/</wvdl>
| |
| 09:37 | <monteslu> only problem i see is that fedora and ubuntu have differnt .mozilla user profiles
| |
| 09:37 | <ogra> really ?
| |
| 09:37 | <moquist> monteslu: you don't want to mix desktop environments for shared home dirs. that's not happy.
| |
| 09:37 | Though I think Gnome is the bigger worry, not so much FF.
| |
| 09:37 | <monteslu> yeah, but I've got gigs of teacher profiles on the current smbdlap server
| |
| 09:37 | <ogra> ubuntu should use pretty much upstream setup for that
| |
| 09:38 | *upstreams
| |
| 09:38 | <monteslu> I guess I could kill .gnome on their profiles
| |
| 09:38 | maybe .kde too
| |
| 09:38 | <moquist> monteslu: Upgrading isn't a problem. It's just mixing old and new that's not good.
| |
| 09:38 | <monteslu> and the kids all get new directories
| |
| 09:39 | I had planned on redoing the smbldap with centos5, but maybe switching to edubuntu will prove more than enough work as is
| |
| 09:40 | is there a good mailing list like the k12 one?
| |
| 09:41 | <moquist> monteslu: edubuntu-devel gets some traffic. not as much, but there's some really good stuff on there.
| |
| 09:41 | <monteslu> eric should have everyone move to it :)
| |
| 09:41 | <moquist> monteslu: and folks are talking edubuntu on k12osn sometimes. :p
| |
| 09:41 | <monteslu> yeah, i see those from time to time
| |
| 09:42 | could I re-run the smbldap-configure for just he webmin bits on my server without changing anything else?

| 11:16 | <Spec> Heya...I'm about to do a presentation on ltsp...
| |
| 11:17 | I was wondering if anyone could quickly give me some rough figures of how much paid-for-support usually runs for?
| |
| 11:21 | <Lumiere> hi Spec
| |
| 11:22 | Spec: how's pflint's laptop
| |
| 11:27 | <Spec> piece of crap, status quo
| |
| 11:27 | i think i feel dirtier for being on it
| |
| 11:27 | /clear
| |
| 11:27 | :p
| |
| 11:36 | Lumiere, does ltsp have a nifty logo?
| |
| 11:36 | non-edubuntu/k12ltsp specific?
| |
| 11:37 | <ogra> Spec, nearest to that comes the favicon of http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/WebHome i guess
| |
| 11:38 | Spec, if you know any artists that are good at logos, we're looking for a nice ltsp logo ...
| |
| 11:43 | <Spec> i used tux :p
| |
| 11:43 | but yes ,i know an artist who is good at logos, i'll ask him if he wants to make a nice ltsp one

| |
| 19:13 | I get to the thin client login screen OK.
| |
| 19:13 | but when I login
| |
| 19:14 | screen goes black, then to a black X screen with an outline X in the middle and then back to the login screen.

| |
| 19:25 | <spackle> monteslu: I was just asking about edubuntu- why is it now the bark side?
| |
| 19:25 | <monteslu> it's not really. I'm just an long time redhat user
| |
| 19:25 | <jammcq> robbie: Hey !!!!
| |
| 19:25 | <robbie> hi jim
| |
| 19:25 | <jammcq> monteslu: so was I. then, I saw the light
| |
| 19:25 | <robbie> been a while
| |
| 19:26 | <jammcq> robbie: so..... how many kidz you have now?
| |
| 19:26 | <monteslu> fedora will still be my personal and work desktop for a while
| |
| 19:26 | <spackle> I'm never going back to redhat/centos, etc... name your evil.
| |
| 19:26 | <monteslu> at least until i figure out where everything goes in ubuntu
| |
| 19:26 | <spackle> hehe
| |
| 19:26 | <robbie> 2
| |
| 19:26 | 3 one day
| |
| 19:27 | <jammcq> robbie: wow, you are catching up with Faithful
| |
| 19:27 | <monteslu> I think i need an admin group in my smbldap server
| |
| 19:28 | and why isn't synaptic in the menu?
| |
| 19:28 | <jammcq> robbie: I knew you had #2 coming, but I don't know if I heard that #2 actually arrived. Boy or Girl ?
| |
| 19:28 | <robbie> boy

| |
| 19:31 | <jammcq> wow, look at those rosie cheeks
| |
| 19:34 | <spackle> monteslu: did you have any trouble getting thin clients to talk to your server?
| |
| 19:34 | <monteslu> nope, that happened automatically
| |
| 19:34 | haven't converted the second server yet tho
| |
| 19:34 | gotta do some load balancing
| |
| 19:34 | mischko has quit IRC | |
| 19:35 | <monteslu> or alt least tell which clients which server to use
| |
| 19:35 | but for the moment, i gotta find flash.

| 19:54 | gentgeen__ has quit IRC | |
| 19:54 | <monteslu> any reason why apt-get update should be failing to download packages when I can wget the same URL ?
| |
| 19:55 | robbie has joined #ltsp | |
| 19:55 | <spackle> missing requirement?
| |
| 19:57 | <monteslu> I'm getting this early on : bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.
| |
| 19:58 | do you have an edubuntu box you can try an apt-get update on?
| |
| 19:59 | <spackle> I'm at mine
| |
| 20:01 | are you trying to get flashplugin-nonfree ?
| |
| 20:02 | <monteslu> yeah, but I don't think my package list is complete
| |
| 20:03 | and trying to run an apt-get udpate is failing
| |
| 20:03 | <spackle> I can run apt-get update but the flashplugin-nonfree fails for me too.
| |
| 20:03 | <monteslu> I think there's something wrong with the compressed package list on the site right now
| |
| 20:03 | can you try apt-get update
| |
| 20:04 | sometimes the repos temporarily have checksum errors.. at least I've seen that on fedora

| 21:44 | the ltsp5 lts.conf file tells me to look at the lts example gzipped file, which doesn't exist
| |
| 21:52 | <spackle> monteslu: you noticed that too? ;)
| |
| 21:53 | <monteslu> This whole day has been an exercise in frustration
| |
| 21:53 | fedora seemed so much more straight forward
| |
| 21:53 | and k12 seems to have so much more pollish
| |
| 21:54 | <spackle> we need a knoppltsp ;)
| |
| 21:54 | <monteslu> or k12ltsp7 :)
| |
| 21:54 | <Lumiere> sudo from a thin client... are you using an account with admin privs?
| |
| 21:54 | <monteslu> yup
| |
| 21:55 | <Lumiere> and, it is possible that because of an insecurity sudo is failing...
| |
| 21:55 | and if there are problems, maybe submitting a bug report will help
| |
| 21:55 | <monteslu> no sudo is fine, just not connecting to X
| |
| 21:55 | <Lumiere> finally... the ltsp on ubuntu is a completely rewritten app and on a different backend
| |
| 21:56 | <spackle> Thanks Lumiere, that is what I needed to hear. It seemed like a different animal. now I know.
| |
| 21:57 | <monteslu> understand that. Was just hoping given its popularity it would be better tested
| |
| 21:57 | <Lumiere> it is much more secure
| |
| 21:57 | <monteslu> x through ssh is overkill
| |
| 21:57 | <Lumiere> not really
| |
| 21:57 | <spackle> Lumiere: that is probably why I cannot log in via my thin client.
| |
| 21:57 | <monteslu> xdmp was fine
| |
| 21:57 | <Lumiere> password through plain-text is death
| |
| 21:58 | monteslu: ubuntu won't let it in with password -> plain text
| |
| 21:58 | period end of story
| |
| 21:58 | <monteslu> fine, but now I need more cpu on my ltsp servers
| |
| 21:58 | <Lumiere> monteslu: how would you feel sending your credit card over plaintext to the ltsp server?
| |
| 21:59 | <monteslu> its not the same thing
| |
| 21:59 | <Lumiere> it is pretty close
| |
| 21:59 | they just affect different pieces of your identity
| |
| 22:00 | password -> your accounts
| |
| 22:00 | credit card -> your money
| |
| 22:00 | <monteslu> fine... do you have edubuntu servers connecting to ldap ?
| |
| 22:01 | <Lumiere> that I don't know
| |
| 22:01 | but pam_ldap would work I assume
| |
| 22:02 | <monteslu> I've got it working, but I'm wondering if the x authentication has something to do with the ldap setup
| |
| 22:02 | <Lumiere> x authenticates to accounts on the servecr
| |
| 22:02 | <monteslu> because sudo <someGUIapp> works only on the server
| |
| 22:02 | yet sudo <someCLIapp> works fine from a thin client
| |
| 22:04 | <Lumiere> try gksudo guiapp
| |
| 22:04 | <monteslu> maybe there's some other group that's missing or something
| |
| 22:04 | ahh, gksudo
| |
| 22:04 | lemme try that
| |
| 22:04 | <spackle> Lumiere: what is the best source of info fo edubuntu ltsp?
| |
| 22:05 | <monteslu> Lumiere++
| |
| 22:05 | you da man
| |
| 22:05 | <Lumiere> spackle: ltsp.org
| |
| 22:05 | and the edubuntu site
| |
| 22:05 | which I don't know off hand ;)
| |
| 22:06 | np
| |
| 22:06 | <spackle> Lumiere: OK, thanks, I wasn't sure if things from ltsp still applied.
| |
| 22:06 | <monteslu> in fedora, su - sets up all the gui env vars
| |
| 22:06 | <Lumiere> monteslu: su isn't that good
| |
| 22:07 | cause anyone can use su
| |
| 22:07 | unless you lock it down
| |
| 22:07 | sudo you have to add someone as an admin for them to use it
| |
| 22:07 | <monteslu> anyone with my funky root password
| |
| 22:08 | <Lumiere> on a completely unrelated subject... David Beckham loses ;)
| |
| 22:11 | <monteslu> so does everyon that watches soccer :)
| |
| 22:11 | Lumiere, do you have flash sound working on the thin clients?
| |
| 22:12 | <spackle> that always used to be a bit of a tough nut
| |
| 22:12 | <monteslu> the teachers have two requests: that their thumb drives work and that sound works with flash
| |
| 22:13 | flash sound got fixed in k12ltsp6, but I don't see a similar sounding package in edubuntu
| |
| 22:14 | <Lumiere> monteslu: flash sucks? XD
| |
| 22:14 | <monteslu> a bit
| |
| 22:15 | only thing its even usefull for is that low res crap video all the kids are watching these days
| |
| 22:15 | eveything else can be handled just fine with ajax
| |
| 22:15 | <spackle> "all the kids"
| |
| 22:16 | nice one gramps!
| |
| 22:16 | <monteslu> hehe
| |
| 22:16 | <spackle> :)
| |
| 22:16 | <monteslu> I've been at this since this morning, I can be a grumpy old man now
| |
| 22:17 | <Lumiere> monteslu: sorry I can't help more
| |
| 22:17 | I am spending too much time on another project
| |
| 22:17 | <monteslu> no worries, the security admonishment was plenty :)
| |
| 22:17 | <Lumiere> (SchoolTool SIS/CanDo Competency Tracking system)
| |
| 22:17 | well I spend half my time
| |
| 22:17 | <monteslu> open source?
| |
| 22:17 | <Lumiere> beating programmers over the head with the ugly stick for it
| |
| 22:17 | yes
| |
| 22:18 | zope3 based
| |
| 22:18 | <monteslu> cool, someone needs to put the proprietary educational vendors out of business
| |
| 22:18 | the shitware those guys pump out is beyond obscene
| |
| 22:18 | <Lumiere> it's coming along
| |
| 22:18 | but... SIS is a very very hard thing to write
| |
| 22:19 | <monteslu> cause you're not doing it in j2ee
| |
| 22:19 | * monteslu ducks | |
| 22:19 | <Lumiere> j2ee is the lame version of component architecture ;)
| |
| 22:19 | <monteslu> ouch
| |
| 22:19 | it pays my bills
| |
| 22:19 | <Lumiere> go look at zope3
| |
| 22:19 | see how it was meant to be
| |
| 22:19 | <monteslu> i write it fast as hell too
| |
| 22:20 | python's not bad
| |
| 22:20 | and guido is making it more and more like java everyday
| |
| 22:21 | * monteslu ducks again | |
| 22:21 | <monteslu> I think I'm probably too tired and crabby for irc right now
| |
| 22:21 | <spackle> fiesty anyway
| |
| 22:21 | <monteslu> hehe yeah
| |
| 22:22 | <Lumiere> ow
| |
| 22:22 | * Lumiere pulls out his hammer | |
| 22:22 | <sbalneav> Ah, looks like the patch I came up with for nbd-server got put into upstream,
| |
| 22:23 | nice.
| |
| 22:23 | <monteslu> acutally if it works and its cross platform I don't care which language it's written in.
| |
| 22:25 | <Lumiere> monteslu: web apps++
| |
| 22:26 | <spackle> installing software is the pits, updating it 2xpits
| |
| 22:29 | <Lumiere> spackle: yes
| |
| 22:29 | SchoolTool will be in Gutsy...
| |
| 22:30 | but unfortunately it is not going to be everything yet
| |
| 22:49 | <jammcq> sbalneav: you rock
| |
| 22:50 | <sbalneav> :)
| |
| 22:51 | <Lumiere> hi jammcq
| |
| 22:51 | <jammcq> hey Lumiere
| |
| 22:51 | how's it goin?
| |
| 22:51 | <Lumiere> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
| |
| 22:51 | just got off a CanDo/SchoolTool sprint
| |
| 22:51 | <jammcq> yeah, I'm heading upstairs in a few seconds
| |
| 22:51 | <Lumiere> and I am pretty spent ;)
| |
| 22:51 | <jammcq> cool
| |
| 22:52 | <Lumiere> and I am starting to play with compiz-fusion
| |
| 22:52 | <monteslu> web apps++ indeed
| |
| 22:52 | <Lumiere> monteslu: only warning from us is... use firefox ;)
| |
| 22:53 | <monteslu> hehe, I've got that message on the help section of our corporate extranet
| |
| 22:53 | <Lumiere> IE6 is unsupported from my team (I don't care enough to pay them to make it work in IE :)
| |
| 22:53 | <sbalneav> Finally getting around to fixing a longstanding irritant of mine with some of the ltsp init scripts.
| |
| 22:53 | <Lumiere> sbalneav: cool... and ltns scottie :)
| |
| 22:54 | <sbalneav> I'm adding an XORG_CONF variable, which will do the exactly the same thing as the XF86CONFIG_FILE variable, but properly named.
| |
| 22:54 | * Lumiere is contemplating buying a DDR mat and forcing himself to get into shape | |
| 22:54 | <Lumiere> sbalneav: deprication warnings pls ;)
| |
| 22:54 | <jammcq> heh
| |
| 22:54 | <sbalneav> You just got it :)
| |
| 22:54 | <Lumiere> rofl
| |
| 22:54 | not for me ;)
| |
| 22:55 | <sbalneav> I'll keep the old one around, we'll phase it out in a version or two.
| |
| 22:55 | <Lumiere> I don't use the variable (my edubuntu-dapper works just fine w/o it)
| |
| 22:55 | sbalneav: I just suggest some piece of 'omgwtfbbq this is going away soon' ;)
| |
| 22:55 | (speaking of bbq... bbq dinner mmmmm)
| |
| 22:56 | <spackle> mmmmm
| |
| 22:56 | <monteslu> got orange chicken and sweet and sour pork waiting for me at home
| |
| 22:57 | savetheWorld has joined #ltsp | |
| 22:57 | <Lumiere> heh... I got something at the soccer game tonight
| |
| 22:58 | <monteslu> ok, now that I've got one Muekow server up and connected to ldap... what's the best way to get clients to hit the second ltsp server?
| |
| 22:58 | split them up in lts.conf
| |
| 22:58 | <Lumiere> (yes... I was at the beckham game... yes I was screaming boos at him)
| |
| 22:59 | <monteslu> or some other fancier newfangled loadbalancing technique
| |
| 22:59 | soccer--
| |
| 22:59 | though the world cup head butt thing was kinda neat
| |
| 22:59 | saw it just after getting my hd tv
| |
| 23:01 | * Lumiere doesn't like monteslu anymore ^^ (I'm a DC United season ticket holder, and have been for 12 years now) | |
| 23:01 | <monteslu> hehe
| |
| 23:03 | its not that I hate soccer, its just tha basketball is starting up in 2 months
| |
| 23:04 | and my Suns are gonna get it done this year.
| |
| 23:04 | * Lumiere finds basketball to be somewhat boring (although more interesting then baseball or football) | |
| 23:06 | <monteslu> basketball, then football and futbol for a tie, baseball a distant 17th or so after the maybe UFC cage matches or something
| |
| 23:07 | <Lumiere> lol yea
| |
| 23:07 | footy is very fun to watch with teams that are play a fun style
| |
| 23:09 | <monteslu> all they have to do is shorten the goal a little, have the keeper move away from it, and let them use their hands
| |
| 23:09 | oh and shorten the field and make it a hardwood floor :)
| |
| 23:10 | <Lumiere> lol bleh
| |
| 23:11 | my thing is that there isn't the strategy in basketball
| |
| 23:11 | <monteslu> sure there is, purchase big guys
| |
| 23:11 | oh and run fast
| |
| 23:11 | rcy has joined #ltsp | |
| 23:13 | <monteslu> well I better head home. I don't think I'll solve any of my muekow issues tonight. And I've got another day left
| |
| 23:25 | iMav has joined #ltsp | |
| 23:26 | muh2000 has joined #ltsp | |
| 23:26 | iMav has left #ltsp | |
| 23:29 | <spackle> my thin client keeps saying nfsmount: need a path, but I don't see a path option in the DHCP settings, what should it be?
| |
| 23:30 | this is from edubuntu
| |
| 23:30 | lmveloso has quit IRC | |
| 23:30 | <spackle> I assume it picks the option up from dhcp?
| |
| 23:32 | this: option root-path "/opt/ltsp/i386" ?
| |
| 23:33 | savetheWorld has quit IRC | |
| 23:37 | <sbalneav> spackle: Could you paste your /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file to the pastebot?
| |
| 23:37 | !pastebot
| |
| 23:37 | <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.
| |
| 23:45 | <spackle> sbalneav: it's booting now. Just can't figure out why I can't login now.
| |
| 23:46 | <sbalneav> Need to do an ltsp-update-sshkeys?
| |
| 23:46 | indradg has quit IRC | |
| 23:46 | <spackle> locate ltsp-update-sshkeys
| |
| 23:50 | can I add a whole network to the ssh known hosts?
| |
| 23:51 | ooh, hey! 'tis working now!
| |
| 23:51 | sbalneav: many thanks!
| |
| 23:51 | <sbalneav> NP
