| 08:18 | <Munkie> what is the command to regenerate the i386.img file (Debian 5.0.39 packages)? TIA
| |
| 08:20 | <cliebow_> in ubuntu is ltsp-update-image
| |
| 08:20 | <Munkie> I was afraid of that answer. Command does nothing here
| |
| 08:20 | <cliebow_> and vagrantc is missing here
| |
| 08:26 | <Munkie> oh well, will search around. thanks anyway

| 10:55 | <ace_suares> hi all
| |
| 10:56 | I am trying to run a ltsp server (ubuntu gutsy) with only one interface.
| |
| 10:56 | I have a dhcp server on my lan and I added the options I find in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf to that server
| |
| 10:57 | the thin client gets an ip address (of course) but it seems not to find the tftp server (that is on a different serrver then the dhcp server).
| |
| 10:57 | How can I specify the thin client server to look at the correct server ?
| |
| 10:57 | dniel has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:57 | <stgraber> what are the lines you put in your dhcp server's config ?
| |
| 10:58 | <ace_suares> option root-path "ip-of-server:/opt/ltsp/i386
| |
| 10:58 | <stgraber> ok, do you have a next-server line ?
| |
| 10:58 | next-server 172.16.4.253;
| |
| 10:58 | filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";
| |
| 10:58 | <ace_suares> and the if{}else{} stuff that is in the
| |
| 10:58 | no no next-server
| |
| 10:58 | <stgraber> that's what I have on my LAN with 172.16.4.253 as the thin client server
| |
| 10:58 | <ace_suares> I can add that
| |
| 10:59 | I'll try
| |
| 11:03 | doesn't work
| |
| 11:05 | should work tough
| |
| 11:08 | nope
| |
| 11:08 | I don't see packets either
| |
| 11:12 | <stgraber> that's weird as it works fine here, are you sure the next-server IP points to a reachable LTSP server and that you reloaded your dhcpd config ?
| |
| 11:12 | <ace_suares> yeah
| |
| 11:13 | restarted dhcp3-server
| |
| 11:13 | did nmap -sU on the ltsp-server
| |
| 11:13 | 69/udp open|filtered tftp

| 11:27 | <riddlebox> do you guys think it is a good idea for me to run LTSP on my ubuntu server which run Asterisk and a mythtv backend? it would only be for 1 laptop(with no hard drive)?
| |
| 11:29 | <joebob777as7> riddlebox, should be fine
| |
| 11:32 | rasmuson has quit IRC | |
| 11:34 | <riddlebox> joebob777as7, cool I have been wanting to try LTSP and coming into this laptop with no hard drive will be awesome
| |
| 11:34 | <joebob777as7> lol whatever you say riddlebox... ;) let me know how "awesome" it is
| |
| 11:36 | <riddlebox> joebob777as7, will I need to nic cards?

| 15:55 | Q-FUNK has quit IRC | |
| 15:58 | <Munkie> I think there is a bug in the debian package. I have done a reinstall and the config set itself (again) to boot via NBD instead of NFS. Unfortunately I forgot the config file which controls this option. I thought it was under /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/initramfs-tools but I can't find it there...
| |
| 16:01 | anyone know which file controls the boot method of clients?
| |
| 16:02 | does this channel get logged anywhere? I asked the question a coupla days ago and got the right answer from a dev. If I could find the log...

| |
| 16:55 | <Munkie> I don't think there is a Spanish ltsp channel....
| |
| 16:55 | edgarin has joined #ltsp | |
| 16:56 | <heliedgar> ooo ok
| |
| 16:56 | i have a problem
| |
| 16:57 | a client boot from flopy and show only davicom_poll
| |
| 16:57 | vidcom_poll sorry
| |
| 16:58 | <Munkie> heliedgar: What is vidcom_poll?
| |
| 16:58 | <heliedgar> i dont know
| |
| 16:58 | i boot from floppy
| |
| 16:59 | show only vidcom_poll o screen+
| |
| 17:00 | davicom_poll
| |
| 17:00 | ??
| |
| 17:01 | <Munkie> vidcom_poll gives nothing on google, davicom_poll gives dhcp references...
| |
| 17:02 | heliedgar: Have you setup dhcp server?
| |
| 17:02 | <heliedgar> yes
| |
| 17:02 | i think....
| |
| 17:02 | <Munkie> I think davicom is something to do with your network card?
| |
| 17:03 | <heliedgar> i read the driver are broken
| |
| 17:03 | but where can i find aother one
| |
| 17:03 | another one
| |
| 17:04 | <Munkie> Does your network card support PXE?
| |
| 17:05 | Heliedgar: I think Davicom is tha NIC maker. Try www.davicom.com.tw
| |
| 17:07 | <heliedgar> http://www.davicom.com.tw/eng/products/dm9102d.htm
| |
| 17:08 | http://www.davicom.com.tw/eng/download/Driver/driver_9102a.htm
| |
| 17:09 | <Munkie> No mention of PXE so I guess it isn't supported. Shame, it does make things a lot easier
| |
| 17:10 | <heliedgar> in this page say something about pxe
| |
| 17:10 | http://www.davicom.com.tw/eng/download/Driver/driver_9102a.htm
| |
| 17:13 | <Munkie> Heliedgar: What kind of system is it? Thin client, PC, laptop, etc?
| |
| 17:13 | <heliedgar> thin client
| |
| 17:13 | <Munkie> have you looked in the bios for PXE or network boot options?
| |
| 17:14 | <heliedgar> yes
| |
| 17:14 | only say wake on lan
| |
| 17:15 | <Munkie> The file you showed me has a readme which says: While system booting up, DM9PCI PXE Boot ROM will display a greeting message,"
| |
| 17:15 | Do you see any bios messages on screen BEFORE booting?
| |
| 17:16 | <heliedgar> noo
| |
| 17:16 | <Munkie> What make/model thin client?
| |
| 17:17 | <heliedgar> i an 350 mghz
| |
| 17:17 | 128 ram
| |
| 17:18 | <Munkie> Manufacturer? Dell, HP, Neoware, ?
| |
| 17:19 | <heliedgar> no
| |
| 17:20 | <Munkie> Its a PC?
| |
| 17:20 | <heliedgar> yes
| |
| 17:21 | but has no manufacturer
| |
| 17:22 | <Munkie> I'm not sure, but looking at the files you would first need to program the EEPROM using the dos progs on the site. Otherwise you could check the boot order in the BIOS to see if you see any kind of network option, they have different names such as UNDI resources, INT 18 boot so you will have to look around.
| |
| 17:23 | I have not used the floppy boot option so can't really help you with that
| |
| 17:23 | I must set more coffee, its late. brb
| |
| 17:26 | <heliedgar> mmm ok
| |
| 17:26 | i'll try
| |
| 17:26 | tnks
| |
| 17:26 | <Munkie> you're welcome
| |
| 17:26 | sorry I couldn't help more
| |
| 17:27 | <heliedgar> it say Boot From lan First
| |
| 17:29 | <Munkie> ok, the BIOS should be good. You will need a boot ROM on your NIC. Sometimes you get messages at POST that say PXE or something like that and press <some key> to boot from network. Only if you have the boot ROM on the card though!
| |
| 17:30 | <heliedgar> here are a rom file
| |
| 17:30 | http://www.davicom.com.tw/eng/download/Driver/driver_9102a.htm
| |
| 17:30 | <Munkie> I have an old 3com card and it says: Initializing MBA. Press Ctrl-Alt-B to configure...
| |
| 17:32 | <heliedgar> how do i put that rom into a booteable floppy
| |
| 17:32 | ?
| |
| 17:33 | <Munkie> Do you have a dos boot floppy?
| |
| 17:33 | <heliedgar> no
| |
| 17:33 | but i can make one
| |
| 17:33 | then??
| |
| 17:33 | <Munkie> OK. Make one and boot from it. Then on another floppy, put the unzipped EEPROM programmer and one of the PXE roms
| |
| 17:36 | when you are in dos, put the floppy with EEPROM and ROM file and run the pgsrom file and see what it says
| |
| 17:36 | <heliedgar> ok
| |
| 17:36 | <Munkie> If your machine blows up, the pieces are yours to keep :-)
| |
| 17:37 | <heliedgar> wait i need to start win
| |
| 17:37 | heliedgar has quit IRC | |
| 17:37 | <Munkie> I do not think you can do it from within windows..
| |
| 17:37 | or are you going to make boot floppies?
| |
| 17:39 | There is also a warning in the text file. The program will overwrite all ethernet adapters without checking the vendor ID.
| |
| 17:46 | the ltsp-update-image command has stopped working again. I get no error and no output. Is there a fix for this?

| |
| 17:57 | <heliedgar> no
| |
| 17:58 | the program ask me for Start Node ID
| |

| 21:10 | <MRH2> hi I am only getting 1152x864 on a matrox mga450 card and can't seem to set it for 1280x1024 despite being specified any ideas what could be wrong? possible card problem?
| |
| 21:10 | (i've got other machines with the same model card working finr)
| |
| 21:13 | <vagrantc> different monitors?
| |
| 21:14 | <MRH2> all the same
| |
| 21:15 | only difference is the client hardware one is a HP t5720 and one is an HP 5710
| |
| 21:15 | <vagrantc> marketing names != actual hardware of cards/monitors ?
| |
| 21:18 | <MRH2> so the theory is what? the card is actually completely different hardware?
| |
| 21:19 | <vagrantc> sometimes ...
| |
| 21:20 | MRH2: all of one model work, and all of the other don't ?
| |
| 21:20 | <MRH2> i only have one of the model that doesn't work
| |
| 21:47 | i'm gonna call it a night on that one...
