| 01:21 | * vagrantc realizes that qemu and virtualbox both support vmware disk formats | |
| 01:21 | <vagrantc> probably should have just used that
| |
| 01:54 | <johnny> virtualbox is great
| |
| 01:54 | altho i've just ran into wanting more than 2GB ram ;)
| |
| 01:54 | when i run eclipse, vmware, and then bunch of normal apps..
| |
| 01:54 | plus many browser tabs..

| 08:51 | <Tilllinux> we've set up a debian tftp... let's say "server"... that enables clients to boot from network (for example clonezilla). Is it possible to provide a suse/(ed)ubuntu boot option?

| 10:22 | <npman> Hello, folks... I've been lurking here for a while the past month or so. May I ask a quick (I hope) question?
| |
| 10:25 | I work for an organization that tries to help out non-profits with their IT. So I have been installing servers running LTSP on Ubuntu Feisty.
| |
| 10:26 | I've been running into problems with modern machines- laptops, mostly. And my question is about getting LTSP to work with these machines.
| |

| 10:30 | <npman> Case in point- A Dell Inspiron 6400 Laptop with ATI Radeon X1300- it seems to choke as X comes up.
| |
| 10:31 | I did a sudo chroot on the server and installed the ATI proprietary driver. My question is, do I need to do anything else after this step?
| |
| 10:32 | Like ltsp-update-kernel, etc? Or is installing the driver in the chroot environment sufficient?
| |
| 10:33 | or should I have waited until people were awake to ask this question? :)

| 11:20 | <el_cubano> Hi. I recently upgraded my church's LTSP server from Debian Sarge to Debian Etch. When I did, all the machines that were netbooting using floppies from rom-o-matic quit net booting
| |
| 11:20 | I made new floppy images (the ones I had been using before were a couple years old) but that did not fix it.
| |
| 11:21 | vagrantc has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:21 | <el_cubano> Can anyone point me at what might be going wrong?
| |
| 11:25 | <npman> I think everyone is off having fun on the weekend. Come to think of it... I should be off having fun...

| |
| 11:30 | <vagrantc> warren: so, i've got a debian lenny image that works in both virtualbox and boots to qemu ...
| |
| 11:30 | warren: and it boots with a virtualbox thin client, at least
| |
| 11:31 | warren: seems like the common disk format is vmware's vmdk format...

| 22:27 | <vagrantc> !seen otavio
| |
| 22:27 | <ltspbot> vagrantc: otavio was last seen in #ltsp 1 day, 9 hours, 53 minutes, and 41 seconds ago: <otavio> vagrantc: i did, will do then in few minutes

| |
| 22:27 | <ltspbot> jammcq: sbalneav was last seen in #ltsp 4 weeks, 1 day, 12 hours, 21 minutes, and 40 seconds ago: <sbalneav> I guess the idea is: ship it in the safe, encrypted mode, and then if people decide they can be less safe, in exchange for speed, then they can, easily.
| |
| 22:28 | <vagrantc> wow
| |
| 22:29 | warren: i'm guess you don't need that disk image anymore
| |
| 22:30 | i haven't compressed it, but uncompressed, it came out to about 1.5GB

| 22:43 | or X11 ?
| |
| 22:43 | or X windows?
| |
| 22:43 | then it should run on ltsp.

| |
| 22:44 | e17 with X.org
