05:38 | ldm it's very slow on ubuntu do u know if there is some enanchements in the future?
| |
05:41 | <cliebow> gypsymauro, you using feisty?
| |
05:41 | if so gutsy Will rock!!
| |
05:42 | <gypsymauro> cliebow: yes feisty
| |
05:43 | <cliebow> ldm is now written in c...
| |
05:43 | and
| |
05:43 | i think we are using squashfs/unionfs for "mounting" chroot.
| |
05:43 | Far faster..
| |
05:45 | <gypsymauro> great news:)
| |
05:45 | so I've to wait the release of gutsy
| |
05:45 | when will be released?
| |
05:45 | <ogra> everything is faster in gutsy :)
| |
05:45 | not only ldm

05:58 | <cyberorg> ogra, we got build service repository, server:ltsp, it is now possible to create packages for all major distros from same tarballs
| |
05:58 | http://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=server%3Altsp
| |
06:00 | <cliebow> very Cool!!!
| |
06:00 | <ogra> cyberorg, thats a proper bzr branch we could merge ?
| |
06:00 | * ogra doest get access, it asks for a PW | |
06:00 | <cyberorg> ogra, that is build service to create packages
| |
06:00 | <ogra> ah
| |
06:00 | <cyberorg> ogra, use any novell/opensuse account to log in
| |
06:00 | <ogra> haha
| |
06:01 | <cyberorg> we can create packages for all buntus, debians, mandrivas, fedoras and suse
| |
06:01 | <cliebow> lacks?
| |
06:01 | slacks?
| |
06:02 | <ogra> well, that wont help you for ubuntu or debian :) the packages for them need to be buiold by the respective archive build servers to end up in the distro :)
| |
06:02 | <cyberorg> cliebow, no slacks yet, http://build.opensuse.org/project/add_target_simple?project=server%3Altsp list of all targets
| |
06:02 | it is open source so slackers can write support for it ;)
| |
06:03 | <cliebow> hehee
| |
06:03 | <ogra> which is waht we do since two years already ... unlikely that we'll change over to a suse build system :)
| |
06:03 | <cyberorg> ogra, of course, this is meant for any developers who want to directly provide packages, it provides mirrors all over
| |
06:04 | <ogra> well, thats fine for suse packages then, great to see you getting forward (even though i'd still love to see that your code integrates with the upstream code)
| |
06:04 | <cyberorg> devs do not have to invest in infrastructure required to build packages for different distros, archs
| |
06:05 | <ogra> (which requires really minimal changes)
| |
06:05 | <cyberorg> ogra, yeah, need help for that, i don't know what is expected
| |
06:05 | <ogra> that undermines the upstream idea of having püer vendor plugins
| |
06:06 | <cyberorg> i can add anyone as maintainers to our svn repo if you like
| |
06:06 | <vpro> do you have any experience of usb headsets?
| |
06:06 | <ogra> it would be better if every distro would use their own plugins dir in the upstream code so we can merge properly
| |
06:06 | <cyberorg> ogra, without any change you can import our entire trunk under suse?
| |
06:07 | <ogra> cyberorg, neither me nore sbalneav or vagrantc will switch from bzr to svn, we're fine with the branches we use
| |
06:07 | <cyberorg> ogra, i understand that :) that was for changes that would be required so it can be merged by you guys
| |
06:08 | <ogra> well, i'd still prefer a bzr branch, but i'll look after gutsy is out how we can import from svn
| |
06:08 | <cyberorg> ogra, to make it easy i created a launchpad project too
| |
06:09 | hopefully they will import svn and convert to bzr https://launchpad.net/kiwi-ltsp/trunk
| |
06:09 | "Launchpad has not yet attempted this import. The vcs-imports operator will review the source details and either mark the series "Do not sync", or perform a test import. If the test import is successful, a public import will be created. After the public import completes, it will be updated automatically."
| |
06:09 | donno how long these vcs-import ops take
| |
06:11 | <ogra> should happen soon
| |
06:11 | that great :)
| |
06:11 | *that's
| |
06:11 | * ogra hugs cyberorg | |
06:11 | <ogra> makes merging really easy
| |
06:12 | and LP has a monitor, if ltsp-drivers subscribes to your code branch we'll get notification for stuff we can merge
| |
06:12 | so ping me if the import is done, i'll subscribe to it
| |
06:12 | <cyberorg> ogra, after doing all this thing to get ltsp5 working i feel integrating into any distro is extremely easy for 'real' developers
| |
06:13 | i need help in getting everything working properly, wish we had help from more suse devs

06:22 | <cdealer> Hi
| |
06:24 | Im going to install ltsp on SLES and I just want to know if the right thing to do is downloading the ltsp-4.2u2-0.iso from http://ltsp.mirrors.tds.net/pub/ltsp/isos/ ... is this the last update?
| |
06:28 | IRCzito has joined #ltsp | |
06:28 | jammcq has quit IRC | |
06:30 | <ogra> cdealer, you can either use the old 4.2 stuff, then there are ltsp5 tarballs of the debisn and ubuntu setups you can use with some maual work on the server side and then there is kiwi-ltsp from cyberorg which is still very young but the neares you can get to ltsp5 on a suse
| |
06:32 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: isnt a better choice and more supported the 4.2 version ?
| |
06:32 | <cyberorg> ogra, it is for opensuse 10.3 only
| |
06:33 | jammcq_ has quit IRC | |
06:33 | <ogra> cdealer, 4.2 isnt developed since two years any more
| |
06:33 | <cyberorg> cdealer, http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP
| |
06:33 | <cdealer> [cyberorg]:: and this will do for SLES 10 ?
| |
06:36 | [ogra]:: you consider the possibility of getting pay to configure a ltsp server ?
| |
06:36 | <ogra> cdealer, i get pay for writing ltsp from canonical already :)
| |
06:37 | <IRCzito> :D
| |
06:37 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: we need ltsp for a production enviroment so we cant have mistakes =/
| |
06:37 | <ogra> be we're all around and availabe here in the channel nearly around the clock ... 64 ppl ... you should find someone to help you for every incident :)
| |
06:40 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: we can pay ..... hehe =D but its ok, I will be around then
| |
06:40 | <ogra> cdealer, where do you sit btw ?
| |
06:41 | <cyberorg> cdealer, sles is too old for our purpose, may be once i have everything figured out for 10.3 i may think of back porting it
| |
06:42 | <ogra> well, for a stable upgradeable and security supported setup i'd really recommend ubuntu or debian then
| |
06:42 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: at floripa, brazil
| |
06:42 | <ogra> 4.2 has no security support or updates at all anymore
| |
06:42 | ah, well, i'm in germany :)
| |
06:43 | (you can buy commercial support for ltsp servers at canonical as well btw)
| |
06:43 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: we have remote support
| |
06:45 | <ogra> http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid ... 9x5 costs $1200/year 24/7 $4000 but indeed thats not for SLES servers :)
| |
06:45 | <cdealer> we thought about SLES for the security and updates reason
| |
06:45 | <ogra> http://system76.com/product_info.php?cPath=29&products_id=62
| |
06:45 | Avatara has quit IRC | |
06:45 | <ogra> and you can buy an edubuntu server with ltsp preinstalled :)
| |
06:47 | (not sure they ship to brazil though and i bet customs would double the price for you down there)
| |
06:47 | <cyberorg> cdealer, sles is not ideal for ltsp as it does not have user applications like even openoffice
| |
06:47 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: buying a server its not that easy for us, we must do audiction and stuff, so we are thinking about itautec or dell, both offer a 16gb quad xeon box
| |
06:48 | [cyberorg]:: I will get back to ubuntu, you convinced me hehe =)
| |
06:50 | <cyberorg> cdealer, heh, i have never used ubuntu for more than 5 minutes, would advise to use opensuse, you can save the money, contribute to the project making it better
| |
06:50 | ubuntu has the best ltsp integration if you are in a hurry
| |
06:50 | <ogra> cyberorg, but which stable production ready options with security support does he have
| |
06:51 | <cdealer> [cyberorg]:: well, im just looking for the best option, its like I said we be a 80 users production server so I must choose wisely
| |
06:51 | <cyberorg> cdealer, how much time have you got?
| |
06:51 | ogra, true, there is nothing even close to what edubuntu offers
| |
06:52 | <ogra> well, debian ...
| |
06:52 | <cyberorg> i thought you guys had the latest
| |
06:52 | <ogra> but you have to find a local company or something that offers support if you have a CTO that demands support contracts
| |
06:52 | <cdealer> [cyberorg]:: I have tested already ubuntu and it worked great, but we have some problems and started testing suse, but we are already at a hurry, I have to have some decision until friday
| |
06:53 | <ogra> we work closely together, debian sid currently has the same as ubuntu gutsy modulo the nbd/squashfs stuff
| |
06:53 | <cyberorg> cdealer, do you have good developer talent?
| |
06:53 | <cdealer> but know we discovery that the problems was not because of ubuntu, but I liked the support of suse and though in this distro, but the most inmportant is the ltsp to work
| |
06:53 | <ogra> during releases we usually get out of sync so for example the etch ltsp is a pretty old version
| |
06:53 | more like ubuntu edgy (which is two releases ago)
| |
06:54 | etch is the last stable debian, so with that they are outdated ...
| |
06:54 | with their next release they might be ahead ... its really depending on our release schedules :)
| |
06:55 | <cyberorg> ogra, do debian have something like edubuntu, preinstalled ltsp?
| |
06:56 | <cdealer> so what Im getting here is the if my question is the best supported distro I must go with ubuntu 7.04 ?
| |
06:57 | <ogra> cyberorg, debian-edu
| |
06:57 | cdealer, yes
| |
07:00 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: have you already get success with skype in clients ? Here it was crashing
| |
07:00 | Avatara has joined #ltsp | |
07:01 | <ogra> no, we dont have sound input out of the box yet on clients ... with feisty we made the big switch to use alsa everywhere but in gutsy there was no time for furter work on the sound stack
| |
07:02 | there is an opensuse guy who develops something on top of ubuntu/ltsp look on the novell wiki, he has some (not so unhackish but apparently working) instructions
| |
07:03 | <cyberorg> ogra, what is required for sound input?
| |
07:03 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: forget suse, Im going with ubuntu... its worked already so we think this is the best choice
| |
07:03 | <ogra> cyberorg, proper detection on te client side
| |
07:03 | <cyberorg> ogra, we have working sound using esd and ESPEAKER export, is that enough?
| |
07:03 | <ogra> cyberorg, there were plans to have hal on the clients, then it shouldnt be any prob anymore
| |
07:04 | we dont use esd anywhere anymore
| |
07:04 | on the client runs a pulseaudio server ... if you log in to the server a virtual asla device is created for you that uses the pulse network transport in the backend
| |
07:05 | <cdealer> I tried the pulseaudio solution but didnt work... probably a configuration problem
| |
07:05 | <ogra> with feisty ?
| |
07:05 | <cdealer> yep
| |
07:06 | <ogra> tha configured out of the box ... what did you try there ?
| |
07:06 | *that's
| |
07:07 | as long as you dont touch any config in ltsp5 in ubuntu everything should just work ...
| |
07:07 | there is one exception for local devcie access you need to anable users to do s for security reasons (add the to the fuse group)
| |
07:07 | all other features should just work
| |
07:08 | no need to configure anything
| |
07:08 | <cdealer> [ogra]:: Im talking about skype
| |
07:08 | <ogra> ah
| |
07:08 | <cdealer> skype didnt work out of the box
| |
07:08 | <ogra> right
| |
07:08 | i thought you tried to get pulseaudio working by manually setting stuff up :) sorry
| |
07:09 | <cdealer> oh, no no... the audio in general worked great
| |
07:09 | the only missing thing was skype
| |
07:09 | <ogra> have a look at the ltsp-client and ltsp-client-setup initscripts under /opt/ltsp/i386 ...
| |
07:10 | Guaraldo has joined #ltsp | |
07:10 | <ogra> there is a function that sets up sound which overrides the pulse configuration
| |
07:10 | if you wnst to do changes to pulse, do them there

07:26 | <burnerx> where can i purchase cheap thin clients ?

08:12 | <ogra> huh ?

| |
08:12 | <sbalneav> ogra: no, the stuff that we added in for the multi-host stuff's writing to /tmp
| |
08:13 | I can change it easily enough.
| |
08:13 | <ogra> hmm
| |
08:13 | how many lines ?
| |
08:13 | <sbalneav> maybe 4-5
| |
08:13 | <ogra> (after beta if at all ...)
| |
08:13 | ok
| |
08:13 | that should be good

08:14 | <sbalneav> just a couple of places in the ldm screen script.
| |
08:14 | I can't seem to generate one.

09:59 | <ogra> book.labelThe Edubuntu Handbook
| |
09:59 | hmm, that looks a tad broken
| |
09:59 | <Guaraldo> ogra: Ok... thanks. I'll do that...
| |
10:00 | <sbalneav> Guaraldo: Without more information, it's hard to say, maybe something's messing up with lbus.
| |
10:01 | <Guaraldo> ogra: both ohci and uhci loaded at the same time can mess up lbus?
| |
10:01 | <ogra> Guaraldo, i have no clue about lbus, sorry, we never used it in ltsp5
| |
10:01 | <Guaraldo> sbalneav: I pass you the question... :-D
| |
10:02 | <ogra> sbalneav, oh sweet :) you even tell the users how many simms they need for the amount of ram :)
| |
10:02 | * ogra really likes the new edubutu handbook :) | |
10:02 | <ogra> *edubuntu
| |
10:03 | <sbalneav> Good.
| |
10:03 | It was a LOT of work.
| |
10:03 | <ogra> that "book.label" thing needs fixage though
| |
10:03 | <sbalneav> Where's that?

10:44 | <bobnormal> hi, its my first time using ltsp. im on gentoo. nfs is running with nfs/portmapper/mountd, PXE starts fine (though for some reason ignores the kernel name in the pxelinux.cfg default file and uses 'linux' instead?!?!) .. though after linux boots i get a kernel panic - not syncing: vfs: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (after VFS: cannot open root device "<null>" ... anyone know whats to blame?
| |
10:45 | <ogra> null ?
| |
10:45 | <bobnormal> ogra: yes it seems strange.
| |
10:45 | <ogra> that sounds like a broken initramfs or so ...
| |
10:45 | as if your kernel or initramfs dont support netbooting
| |
10:46 | <bobnormal> ogra: i am using the default in gentoo, my network card is a common onboard one, though i cant see any network-card-related stuff in the linux boot info
| |
10:46 | ogra: i guess gentoo's ltsp package is based on pxestuff or whatever the standard files are, i can give you md5sum if you like
| |
10:46 | <ogra> i have no clue about the gentoo stuff :)
| |
10:46 | <sbalneav> bobnormal: did you download 4.2 from the ltsp.org website yourself? Or emerge it?
| |
10:46 | <ogra> dberkholz, is your man
| |
10:47 | <bobnormal> sbalneav: emerged .. installed version is 4.2-r1
| |
10:48 | <sbalneav> ok, IIRC, gentoo sort of did their own thing with the 4.2 tree, and last I heard, it was broken.
| |
10:48 | <bobnormal> rocking. i'll try manual install then

| |
10:52 | i've forgotten what it is called
| |
10:52 | and i'm trying to help a friend
| |
10:52 | <ogra> use the intel driver :)
| |
10:52 | <jammcq> yes, the i810 driver?
| |
10:53 | already using it
| |
10:53 | <ogra> or if you really need i810 (largely obsolete) use 915resolution (ugly hack)
| |
10:53 | <jammcq> that's the one
| |
10:53 | <ogra> no, i was talking about the intel driver
| |
10:53 | <jammcq> oh
| |
10:53 | <ogra> not i810
| |
10:53 | <jammcq> ooooh
| |
10:53 | <jcastro> yeah, if you just use the -intel driver it just works
| |
10:53 | <ogra> you should only use i180 if intel doesnt work
| |
10:54 | * ogra has to use it on the classmate ... -intel doesnt support panning over virtual desktops ... they traded it for proper multi display support ... now who needs that rather than panning tsk | |
10:54 | <jammcq> would just installing the intel package automatically make it use it during the next boot-up?
| |
10:55 | <ogra> no, you need to put it in the config
| |
10:55 | <jcastro> replace i810 with intel in xorg.conf
| |
10:55 | <ogra> or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as you like
| |
10:55 | <jammcq> ooh, ok

15:59 | bobby_C has joined #ltsp | |
16:05 | <vagrantc> hrm. well, i got a sparc machine to network boot as far as load and start the kernel and initramfs ... but then ipconfig doesn't seem to work on sparc, so it dies in the initramfs
| |
16:08 | <Gadi> hey, guys
| |
16:09 | so, my random qu for the day is: does a tftp put to an LTSP server work or fail - and what can restrict it?
| |
16:14 | * vagrantc sees no need to use tftp put in a typical LTSP environment | |
16:14 | <Gadi> nice- premission denied
| |
16:15 | * Gadi is concerned about security | |
16:15 | * Gadi wants to make sure no one can, say, tftp put a kernel of their own | |
16:15 | <Gadi> or an lts.conf for that matter
| |
16:15 | but, apparently, on my system they cannot
| |
16:15 | which is excellent
| |
16:16 | <vagrantc> i wonder if it's just ipconfig that's broken on sparc, or if it's something more ...
| |
16:18 | Guaraldo has quit IRC | |
16:18 | <ogra> vagrantc, i think d-i on uubntu sparc works fie
| |
16:18 | fine
| |
16:18 | Guaraldo has joined #ltsp | |
16:18 | <ogra> that shoul use ipcofig
| |
16:18 | *should
| |
16:19 | <vagrantc> d-i in debian definitely uses dhcp3-client
| |
16:19 | <ogra> hmm
| |
16:19 | right

| |
17:15 | sorry for that :)
| |
17:15 | bobby_C has quit IRC | |
17:25 | * vagrantc wonders if it's really ipconfig that's the problem | |
17:26 | <ogra> do you have a working NIC in initramfs at all ?
| |
17:26 | checked the modules ?
| |
17:26 | it could as well be udev not loading the right stuff
| |
17:30 | nicoAMG has quit IRC | |
17:32 | <vagrantc> it spits out: eth0: HAPPY MEAL (PCI/CheerIO) 10/100BaseT Ethernet 08:00:20:c0:68:9a
| |
17:33 | so i'm guessing it's recognized the ethernet
| |
17:33 | i'm trying a different machine, just to see if it's something specific to that other one
| |
17:33 | (actually netbooting the server used to create the chroot image :)
| |
17:34 | one's an ultra10, the other's a enterprise420r
| |
17:35 | <ogra> noisy around you i bet
| |
17:35 | <vagrantc> same problem.
| |
17:35 | <ogra> hmm
| |
17:36 | can you manually set up the ip data ?
| |
17:36 | fernando1 has left #ltsp | |
17:36 | <vagrantc> ogra: good idea!
| |
17:37 | <ltsppbot> "vagrantc" pasted "sparc64 fails to boot ..." (20 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/322
| |
17:37 | <ogra> Begin: Running /scripts/Unimplemented SPARC system call 97
| |
17:37 | ????
| |
17:37 | whats that ?
| |
17:37 | <vagrantc> no idea
| |
17:37 | <ogra> looks broken
| |
17:37 | <vagrantc> but it happens on both
| |
17:38 | <ogra> that really smells like kernel
| |
17:38 | <vagrantc> but the timing of it is right about where ipconfig runs ... and then later you get those ipconfig errors
| |
17:40 | <ltsppbot> Someone pasted "sys_sparc.c snippet" (8 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/323
| |
17:40 | <ogra> see that
| |
17:40 | <vagrantc> hmmm .... http://osdir.com/ml/lib.uclibc.general/2004-03/msg00118.html
| |
17:40 | <ogra> Don't make the system unusable, if someone goes stuck
| |
17:40 | :)
| |
17:41 | <vagrantc> heh.
| |
17:42 | ogra: you think it's more likely kernel than ipconfig
| |
17:42 | ?
| |
17:42 | <ogra> i dont have any clue about sparc ... not sure how deep ipconfig could reach into the kernel to make it get stuck
| |
17:43 | that couldnt happen on x86
| |
17:43 | the message is definately kernel
| |
17:44 | th etrigger must not be kernel though
| |
17:45 | <vagrantc> yeah, the e420r boots fine using initramfs otherwise ... just network boot causing troubles.
| |
17:45 | oh! i should try with etch ...
| |
17:45 | fernando1 has joined #ltsp | |
17:47 | <ogra> boot with break=top or so
| |
17:48 | and try to manage the boot manually so you get an impression when it goes wrong
| |
17:49 | <vagrantc> that's an option to pass to initramfs-tools ?
| |
17:49 | * vagrantc wonders how to pass boot options on sparc | |
17:50 | <ogra> yeah its a boot parameter
| |
17:50 | top stops before the -top scripts are executed
| |
17:50 | "bootom" for the -bottom scripts
| |
17:50 | and premount for the stuff ater that
| |
17:51 | *after
| |
17:51 | break=top will make it stop before nfsroot is exectuted
| |
17:51 | so you can perform the steps manually
| |
17:53 | <vagrantc> hmmm... i should switch it back to the ultra10 ... this takes a while to be
| |
17:54 | er, boot
| |
17:55 | good thing is, i found a bug in the update-kernels script ...
| |
17:55 | which is 90% of what i was trying to do with booting sparc and powerpc
| |
17:57 | <ogra> cool
| |
18:01 | <vagrantc> ogra: ok ... so that worked nicely.
| |
18:02 | <ogra> manual ipconfig ?
| |
18:02 | <vagrantc> ogra: i ran "modprobe sunhme", it detected the network cards, then i ran "ipconfig eth0" and we got "Unimplemented SPARC system call 97" followed by the ipconfig messages in in the boot log i posted before
| |
18:03 | so now i know it's definitely ipconfig triggering the issue
| |
18:03 | haven't tried manual configuration yet ...
| |
18:04 | <ogra> i meant "ipconfig eth0" actually
| |
18:04 | :)
| |
18:04 | nfsroot is loading some modules ...
| |
18:05 | <vagrantc> i'm going to try specifying ip= on the boot prompt
| |
18:05 | <ogra> af_packet ?
| |
18:05 | try if that fixes it
| |
18:05 | <vagrantc> so that we can skip dhcp and see if it boots fine otherwise
| |
18:05 | ah, load af_packet ... maybe
| |
18:06 | <ogra> yeah
| |
18:06 | thats what mountroot() does in the nfs script
| |
18:08 | Gadi has left #ltsp | |
18:10 | <vagrantc> maybe loading af_packet will cause the kernel panic

22:09 | <Dargus_> Is there anyone here who might be able to help with Local Apps using LTSP?
| |
22:10 | specifically, I'm having trouble getting users a passwordless connection to the client machines :(
| |
22:11 | <vagrantc> yes, that's rather tricky.
| |
22:12 | <Dargus_> I have root working, but the users can't get in
| |
22:12 | burnerx has joined #ltsp | |
22:12 | <vagrantc> Dargus_: have you created users in the chroot environment ?
| |
22:13 | have you set up mounting of home directories ?
| |
22:13 | <Dargus_> Sorry, was called away for a minute
| |
22:13 | Yes, I've got mounted home directories.
| |
22:13 | <vagrantc> how are you authenticating ?
| |
22:13 | <Dargus_> What do you mean by "chroot environment"?
| |
22:13 | <vagrantc> /opt/ltsp/i386
| |
22:14 | Dargus_: which linux distro ?
| |
22:14 | <Dargus_> Supposedly NIS is authenticating
| |
22:14 | Ah, Fedora 6
| |
22:14 | <vagrantc> so ltsp 4.2, then?
| |
22:14 | <Dargus_> Yes
| |
22:15 | the installation is /opt/ltsp/i386, and I'm *supposedly* authenticating against NIS, but I can't get ypcat or ypwhich to run on the client's shell
| |
22:16 | <vagrantc> !localapps
| |
22:16 | <ltspbot`> vagrantc: Error: "localapps" is not a valid command.
| |
22:16 | <Dargus_> the only thing I can get to run is ypbind, and that's not giving me any feedback, either.
| |
22:16 | <vagrantc> ltspbot`: search --values

| |
22:17 | <vagrantc> Dargus_: have you looked on wiki.ltsp.org for documentation on how to set up local apps ?
| |
22:17 | <Dargus_> Yes
| |
22:18 | Been perusing those for the last two weeks
| |
22:18 | I only just now got IRC running (didn't know how to use it)
| |
22:18 | !localdef
| |
22:18 | <ltspbot`> Dargus_: Error: "localdef" is not a valid command.
| |
22:18 | <Dargus_> !localdev

22:18 | <ltspbot`> Dargus_: "localdev" is (#1) Information regarding using pluggable devices and cdroms with LTSP can be found at http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LTSP-42-LocalDev, or (#2) for ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EnableLTSP5LocalDevices, or (#3) for debian-edu: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/LocalDeviceLtspfs, or (#4) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebugLocalDev

22:19 | <Dargus_> !sound
| |
22:19 | <ltspbot`> Dargus_: "sound" is http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Sound
| |
22:19 | <Dargus_> *sigh* that bot's not gonna give me anything I haven't seen already
| |
22:20 | I suppose it would be a huge security risk to have all my users run the specific app as root, huh?
| |
22:20 | <vagrantc> likely difficult to implement, even.
| |
22:21 | fernando1 has joined #ltsp | |
22:21 | <Dargus_> Well, like I said, I got ssh'd into it with Root, using both the # ssh ws100 and $ ssh root@ws100
| |
22:21 | <vagrantc> i haven't really worked with localapps in ltsp 4.2 ...
| |
22:22 | <Dargus_> Eh, I would have given up long ago if it wasn't for a class project :(
| |
22:22 | * vagrantc has even less experience with redhat and freinds | |
22:23 | <Dargus_> What distro do you run, Vagrant?
| |
22:23 | <vagrantc> i work on LTSP in debian :)
| |
22:24 | <Dargus_> Heh, I'm running debian on the machine I'm on now. laptop aside the FC6 server I'm working on. My classmates all are debian fanatics
| |
22:24 | I *was* a fedora fanatic until I started using it for projects.
| |
22:25 | * vagrantc tries to put fanaticism aside | |
22:25 | <Dargus_> hehe, it happens at times
| |
22:25 | <vagrantc> though the occasional joking slight isn't beyond me :)
| |
22:26 | <Dargus_> OK, what's the command to show the users in the room?
| |
22:26 | * Dargus_ is an IRC n00b | |
