| 01:29 | <deavid> Hi!
| |
| 01:30 | I'm new to LTSP, and I'm following Debain's HowTo.
| |
| 01:31 | <rcy> deavid: and hows it going?
| |
| 01:31 | <deavid> I don't know if it is possible to boot a Client box without using PXE. Instead of his, I want install a LTSP client kernel on it.
| |
| 01:31 | It is possible?
| |
| 01:32 | Or I must use a DHCP?
| |
| 01:33 | I want to use it in places where is another DHCP server

| 01:34 | <deavid> It seems easy to configure the LTSP server; but all tutorails are telling me to enable Network boot on the client.
| |
| 01:36 | I'm reading about Eherboot, but I must know what kind of ROM has the machine to build a boot CD.
| |
| 01:36 | I don't know why I can't simply install Grub onto that machine, and place the kernel for boot...

| 01:40 | <deavid> I'm looking to /opt/ltsp/i386/boot and there's the kernel
| |
| 01:40 | and there is the config
| |
| 01:41 | "DEFAULT vmlinuz ro initrd=initrd.img root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp"
| |
| 01:41 | it seems that I can replace "dhcp" with the LTSP-Server IP.
| |
| 01:42 | none of you know if this will work or not?
| |
| 01:43 | <ogra__> deavid, try to drop: root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp and add boot=local
| |
| 01:44 | <deavid> ah, ok; thanks!
| |
| 01:44 | how can I tell the client where's the server?
| |
| 01:44 | (in DHCP this is done by dhcp...)
| |
| 01:45 | basanta has quit IRC | |
| 01:45 | <ogra__> you can use nfsroot=<serverip>:<path>
| |
| 01:46 | <deavid> :))

| 02:02 | <ogra> morning vagrantc
| |
| 02:02 | * vagrantc waves from the train in spokane | |
| 02:02 | <ogra> actually "from the train" ?
| |
| 02:03 | <vagrantc> sitting in the train
| |
| 02:03 | <ogra> wow, nice
| |
| 02:03 | wlan is something they still miss out on in germany ...
| |
| 02:03 | <vagrantc> this town has some 2 hours of free wifi program ... decent bandwidth, it seems.
| |
| 02:03 | <ogra> you got power plugs on every seat though
| |
| 02:04 | <vagrantc> well, in my car, there's no power plugs, but the one in front has em ... and i apparently can go for about 6-7 hours on battery before i figured that out
| |
| 02:04 | <ogra> ah, so you dont have it "on the train" actually
| |
| 02:04 | (wlan)
| |
| 02:04 | <vagrantc> no. i figured since i was at a stop for a while, i'd give it a try ...
| |
| 02:05 | <ogra> heh
| |
| 02:06 | i tried the lufthansa WLAN on a plane once ... was workable for IRC ... but not really anything more heavyweight
| |
| 02:06 | sadly they dropped that project again ...
| |
| 02:08 | <stgraber> too bad, having IRC would already be great :) (ok, probably not so useful for most of their customers)
| |
| 02:10 | mikkel has joined #ltsp | |
| 02:12 | <johnny_> hmm..
| |
| 02:14 | <vagrantc> well, time to sync all my bzr repositories with the changes i've made on the train :)
| |
| 02:17 | cyberorg has quit IRC | |
| 02:20 | <johnny_> anybody here ever run into pxe-t04 unsupported operation?
| |
| 02:20 | i found out some of my thin clients will pxe boot today.
| |
| 02:21 | 2 are now floppyless..
| |
| 02:21 | the 3rd could be.. if i could knew what was going on with that :)
| |
| 02:26 | chup has joined #ltsp | |
| 02:27 | chupa has quit IRC | |
| 02:41 | <deavid> hey, im triying with "ogra__: you can use nfsroot=<serverip>:<path>"
| |
| 02:41 | but, the path is relative to? or absolute?
| |
| 02:41 | the absolulte path is /opt/ltsp/i386/
| |
| 02:42 | <vagrantc> that's the one
| |
| 02:42 | <deavid> 192.168.0.1:/opt/ltsp/i386
| |
| 02:42 | ok :)
| |
| 02:42 | isn't loading the root file system
| |
| 02:43 | "Waiting Root file System ...."
| |
| 02:43 | How can I test the server to know if it is providing the NFS?
| |
| 02:44 | <vagrantc> if you're using NFS
| |
| 02:45 | <rcy> deavid: try to mount the nfs directory from another machine manually
| |
| 02:46 | <deavid> This is a good idea; I never used NFS before... I'll try to find some documentation about it.
| |
| 02:47 | lexa_ has quit IRC | |
| 02:47 | <rcy> "mount 192.168.0.1:/opt/ltsp/i386 /mnt" from another host on the network
| |
| 02:47 | <johnny_> hmm.. anybody have machines with intel boot agent?
| |
| 02:47 | <deavid> easy :)
| |
| 02:48 | <rcy> johnny_: yeah
| |
| 02:48 | <johnny_> with ltsp?
| |
| 02:48 | <rcy> yeah
| |
| 02:48 | <johnny_> any problems/
| |
| 02:48 | ?
| |
| 02:49 | <daduke> vagrantc: bonjour!
| |
| 02:49 | <rcy> istr some clients not booting properly with some intel nics, but generally, no, pretty smooth
| |
| 02:49 | <deavid> rcy: "mount.nfs: 192.168.3.12:/opt/ltsp/i386 failed, reason given by server: Permission denied"
| |
| 02:49 | Is the server :P
| |
| 02:49 | <johnny_> not booting properly?
| |
| 02:50 | <rcy> johnny_: i cant recall off the top of my head though. generally i grab an intel card, and netbooting works, after going into the netboot bios to make sure its trying a network and not a local boot
| |
| 02:50 | <johnny_> oh.. it's trying to boot..
| |
| 02:50 | <rcy> johnny_: what problems are you having?
| |
| 02:50 | <johnny_> it just tells me pxe-04
| |
| 02:51 | err
| |
| 02:51 | vagrantc has quit IRC | |
| 02:51 | <rcy> deavid: check the logs on the server. check /etc/exports to make sure it looks right
| |
| 02:51 | <johnny_> pxe-t04
| |
| 02:51 | vagrantc has joined #ltsp | |
| 02:51 | <johnny_> unsupported request from 192.168.1.15
| |
| 02:51 | which is actually the IP of the machine itself.. lol
| |
| 02:51 | <rcy> interesting.... so it gets dhcp?
| |
| 02:51 | <daduke> vagrantc: Hi. Got a minute?
| |
| 02:52 | <johnny_> yes
| |
| 02:52 | <rcy> johnny_: can you post the complete output somewhere?
| |
| 02:53 | <vagrantc> daduke: my internet connection isn't very stable ...
| |
| 02:53 | daduke: might just ask anyone.
| |
| 02:53 | <daduke> vagrantc: unfortunately, no. We have an issue here that you might be interested in... talked to ogra already
| |
| 02:54 | <vagrantc> daduke: try email ... i'll be on a train for about 2.5 more days.
| |
| 02:55 | daduke: ltsp-developer@lists.sourceforge.net
| |
| 02:55 | ogra_cmpc has quit IRC | |
| 02:55 | <daduke> vagrantc: all right. I can also wait, I think irc would be better than email. Bon voyage!
| |
| 02:56 | <johnny_> uhmm..
| |
| 02:56 | <vagrantc> daduke: you can go ahead and bring it up ... but i might disappear
| |
| 02:56 | <daduke> vagrantc: must be a long train....
| |
| 02:56 | <johnny_> the complete output is..
| |
| 02:56 | i'mma have to type it
| |
| 02:59 | <daduke> vagrantc: thing is that one of our users discovered that you can connect to any LTSP client's :6 from anywhere. I had ogra's xeyes directly from Kassel, Germany, and I could also tap all keystrokes. ogra and yours truly weren't able to figure out whether it's a problem of our setup (but why?) or more general. I worked around with iptables now, but that's not the solution.
| |
| 02:59 | <deavid> rcy: I found the problem!
| |
| 03:00 | nfs-kernel-server is in standalone mode. Not run by inetd server.
| |
| 03:00 | All tutorials are saying that I must change exports file and then restart inetd
| |
| 03:00 | <vagrantc> daduke: from the very first day of looking at the code for LDM, i have suspected the "-ac" flag being passed to the X server.
| |
| 03:00 | <deavid> but in my Debian, nfs-kernel-server is a standalone daemon.
| |
| 03:01 | thanks a lot !
| |
| 03:01 | <vagrantc> daduke: disabled access controls ... access controls are what you use to prevent people from snooping ...
| |
| 03:02 | <rcy> deavid: that seems weird. i dont think ive ever seen the nfs server being run by inetd
| |
| 03:02 | <daduke> vagrantc: I don't think I can follow you here... are you aware of the problem?
| |
| 03:02 | <rcy> deavid: what's the link to the documentation you are following
| |
| 03:03 | <vagrantc> daduke: i have not actually tried it, but i suspect that LDM's passing the "-ac" option to the X server *may* be what allows anyone to connect to your server.
| |
| 03:03 | hrm.
| |
| 03:04 | <deavid> rcy: http://wiki.debian.org/LTSP/Howto
| |
| 03:04 | 5. Start tftpd. By default, tftpd-hpa is started from inetd. you may need to restart inetd after installing tftpd-hpa.
| |
| 03:04 | <daduke> vagrantc: with ogra we found that our /root was ro -> no .Xauthority generated, but even with rw and .Xauthority connection was possible even tho X has -auth /root/.Xauthority...
| |
| 03:05 | <vagrantc> tftpd != nfs
| |
| 03:05 | <johnny_> rcy, http://pastebin.ca/928786
| |
| 03:05 | <daduke> vagrantc: it's pretty nasty as soon as ppl actually use the clients for anything real like webmail...
| |
| 03:05 | <vagrantc> daduke: yes, i would call that a release-critical bug. software that wide open should not be used.
| |
| 03:06 | daduke: "-ac" disables access controls ... which i think means that anything can access your display.
| |
| 03:07 | daduke: file bugs on debian and/or ubuntu about this please.
| |
| 03:07 | <rcy> johnny_: does /var/log/daemon.log on your tftp server show anything? you might want to crank up the verbosity of the tftpd
| |
| 03:08 | <daduke> vagrantc: sure. I just wanted to see if anyone else could reproduce the problem
| |
| 03:09 | * daduke wonders that nobody else has ever tried this before... | |
| 03:09 | * vagrantc fears that ldm relies on it | |
| 03:10 | <daduke> vagrantc: what's the -auth here for then?
| |
| 03:11 | <rcy> johnny_: ive definitly booted intel boot agent, pxe 2.1 clients successfully
| |
| 03:11 | I'm not where I can test it out now, but I can look at it tomorrow
| |
| 03:13 | <vagrantc> daduke: well, i'm not in a position to reproduce it at the moment...
| |
| 03:13 | i guess we could possibly X with xinit instead of calling X directly ...
| |
| 03:13 | daduke: the -auth is there because people think it is doing something.
| |
| 03:13 | daduke: but i think -ac trumps that, and nobody had a clue what -ac actually did.
| |
| 03:13 | that's my guess.
| |
| 03:14 | <daduke> vagrantc: ok, this might keep some ppl busy for some time now I guess ;)
| |
| 03:15 | vagrantc: I'm happy to provide any help and support I can. I wrote a bunch of iptables rules that at least restrict X access to the terminal server. In case anyone's interested...
| |
| 03:17 | <vagrantc> all users come from the terminal server, though ...
| |
| 03:18 | <daduke> vagrantc: sure, but it's the best I could do as a quick fix and at least no 'untrusted' ppl from all over the world can snoop
| |
| 03:18 | <vagrantc> ogra: i've been thinking we could just use X.org's autodetection without a configuration file if none of the configuration options for tweaking the xorg.conf are present ...
| |
| 03:18 | ogra: seems a good deal faster.
| |
| 03:18 | daduke: heh.
| |
| 03:18 | * daduke thinks ogra left | |
| 03:19 | ogra_cmpc has joined #ltsp | |
| 03:19 | <daduke> vagrantc: the only other idea for a workaround we had would be an OpenVPN tunnel - but that might be more work than actually fixing the problem....
| |
| 03:20 | <deavid> ha! it's working!
| |
| 03:20 | :))
| |
| 03:20 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: hey there! just brought up the 'X wide open' issue...
| |
| 03:20 | <vagrantc> daduke: i think we just need to use xinit to start the X session ...
| |
| 03:21 | <ogra_cmpc> daduke, did you manage to test with a proper Xauthority file ?
| |
| 03:22 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: well with the rw /root it did create one and the X call seems to use it, but snooping is still possible
| |
| 03:22 | <ogra_cmpc> weird
| |
| 03:22 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: i am moderately sure it has to do with passing the X server the "-ac" option, which "-ac disable access control restrictions
| |
| 03:22 | "
| |
| 03:22 | <ogra_cmpc> vagrantc, where would xinit help here ?
| |
| 03:22 | <vagrantc> because we wouldn't have to use -ac
| |
| 03:22 | <ogra_cmpc> hmm
| |
| 03:23 | where does that come from
| |
| 03:23 | <vagrantc> it would actually set things up properly, than relying on having no access controls to display the greeter.
| |
| 03:23 | the very first ldm code i ever saw.
| |
| 03:23 | and i said "this sounds like a security hole".
| |
| 03:23 | <ogra_cmpc> i was wondering if we could just use -notcp the encrypted mode
| |
| 03:23 | <vagrantc> i'm not 100% certain that's the issue, but i suspect it is.
| |
| 03:23 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah, sounds like it
| |
| 03:24 | i'm not sure ltspfs would survive dropping the -ac though
| |
| 03:24 | that needs testing
| |
| 03:24 | but to be honest i dont really care about the directx mode ...
| |
| 03:24 | as long as we get the default closed
| |
| 03:25 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: the problem is also present with LDM_DIRECTX = False !
| |
| 03:26 | <johnny_> rcy, what tftp server are you using?
| |
| 03:27 | <ogra_cmpc> daduke, yes thats what i just said :)
| |
| 03:27 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: sorry, didn't get it then...
| |
| 03:27 | <rcy> johnny_: tftpd-hpa
| |
| 03:27 | <ogra_cmpc> i dont care if its there with directx ,,, but i do care for the default mode
| |
| 03:31 | <daduke> vagrantc: do you want the bug report in bugs.debian.org or someplace else?

| 03:57 | Nubae has joined #ltsp | |
| 03:57 | <Nubae> hi, ogra, u intrigued me yesterday, how would I mount /home via sshfs?
| |
| 03:58 | chupa has joined #ltsp | |
| 03:58 | chup has quit IRC | |
| 03:58 | <ogra_cmpc> Nubae, find out how to attach to an existing ssh tunnel with sshfs and make a ldm rc.d script for it that gets executed on login
| |
| 03:59 | <Nubae> would it be fusermount -u /home/username ?
| |
| 03:59 | <ogra_cmpc> that would ask you for a password
| |
| 03:59 | you need to re-use the existing ssh socket from ldm, else it gets tricky (needs user credentials on teh client then)
| |
| 04:03 | <Nubae> well ldap is what I'm using on the clients already
| |
| 04:03 | or maybe I'm misunderstanding
| |
| 04:08 | Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:09 | <deavid> ... another question: how works the login in the ltsp-client?
| |
| 04:09 | I must configure the users vía chroot first?
| |
| 04:09 | or there's a method to use the server's accounts?
| |
| 04:11 | <Nubae> hmm, I see the problem, sshfs always asks for a password, I guess I can't get it to ask ldap...
| |
| 04:11 | this is going over my head a too much I think
| |
| 04:13 | soneyka has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:14 | <ogra_cmpc> deavid, ltsp *only* uses server accounts, there are no users on the client and root is locked by default
| |
| 04:15 | <deavid> thanks! ¿how autenticates these users?
| |
| 04:15 | how can configure any user on ltsp?
| |
| 04:15 | cause it seems to be zero users configured to login on
| |
| 04:15 | <ogra_cmpc> with the pam setup of the server against the auth mechanism you use at the server
| |
| 04:16 | which is likely to be a standard /etc/passwd login by default in most cases
| |
| 04:16 | but can also be ladap or so
| |
| 04:16 | *ldap
| |
| 04:16 | so all users you create on the server should just work
| |
| 04:18 | <deavid> but I've tried common logins on the server and does not work
| |
| 04:18 | on ther client*
| |
| 04:18 | then, these logins aren't working
| |
| 04:19 | <Nubae> use ldap, that works fine
| |
| 04:19 | <deavid> oook! now it's working;
| |
| 04:19 | need to update ssh keys;
| |
| 04:20 | <Nubae> yeah
| |
| 04:20 | was gonna say that, if you are on normal thin client
| |
| 04:20 | <deavid> sorry; I'm a newbie with LTSP
| |
| 04:20 | That is, I'm using a client that boots via GRUB.
| |
| 04:20 | there isn't any PXE, or etherboot on it
| |
| 04:21 | And I didn't found documentation relative to "how LTSP it is mean to do the work"
| |
| 04:21 | :)
| |
| 04:21 | <johnny_> i use floppies
| |
| 04:21 | <deavid> thank for your help!
| |
| 04:21 | <johnny_> from rom-o-matic
| |
| 04:21 | <Nubae> another issue I've noticed on my low fat clients is I cannot log out
| |
| 04:21 | <johnny_> with etherboot
| |
| 04:21 | Nubae, if you have autologin.. you cannot logout..
| |
| 04:22 | <Nubae> its not autologin
| |
| 04:22 | <johnny_> not sure if you are, just putting it out there for you in the future
| |
| 04:22 | <Nubae> its a low fat client authenticating against ldap
| |
| 04:22 | but at least I have flash and java working now
| |
| 04:46 | johnny_ has quit IRC | |
| 04:48 | <Nubae> damn, and how do I execute the script after logging into gdm?
| |
| 04:48 | Faithful has joined #ltsp | |

| |
| 04:49 | jamey_ has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:51 | <Nubae> how do you know all this stuff? seems like there is a never ending stream of knowledge
| |
| 04:51 | <jamey_> Would a server machine of the following specification be able to handle 36 LTSP thin clients without lag or delay? Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, 16 GB DDR2-800 RAM, 1TB SATA RAID HDD, NVIDIA 7600GT graphics, dual Gigabit Ethernet, 700W modular PSU.
| |
| 04:52 | bobby_C has joined #ltsp | |
| 04:52 | <Nubae> depends on what its running, flash... no
| |
| 04:52 | anything else yeah
| |
| 04:52 | <jamey_> flash really kills it? what about video?
| |
| 04:52 | <ogra_cmpc> Nubae, i'm working on ubuntu since it exists ... you grasp one or the other thing ;)
| |
| 04:53 | <Nubae> if its via flash, it'll kill it too
| |
| 04:53 | <ogra_cmpc> flash wont kill yousr server :)
| |
| 04:53 | <jamey_> :D
| |
| 04:53 | Nubae: otherwise, what would you change from that spec to make it better for LTSP?
| |
| 04:53 | <ogra_cmpc> the connection might get saturated but the server will surely cope
| |
| 04:53 | <Nubae> sure it will, at least it does here
| |
| 04:53 | ok, yeah kill the server is the wrong word
| |
| 04:54 | <jamey_> slowdown?
| |
| 04:54 | <Nubae> use the processor to its maximum capacitry
| |
| 04:54 | <ogra_cmpc> that server looks perfect, the flash lagging isnt a server performance thing
| |
| 04:54 | <jamey_> what're you running over there?
| |
| 04:54 | <Nubae> lot of ram
| |
| 04:54 | <jamey_> oh okay well the intended environment is an office anyway
| |
| 04:54 | <Nubae> u dont need 16 gigs of ram
| |
| 04:54 | <jamey_> oh right, i thought it was 512 + 256 * 36
| |
| 04:54 | <ogra_cmpc> you can surely make use of 16G :)
| |
| 04:54 | <jamey_> which is like 9.5 GB
| |
| 04:55 | i thought so ogra :D
| |
| 04:55 | <ogra_cmpc> jamey_, nah, we're not *that* mean yet
| |
| 04:55 | <jamey_> so I thought it'd be best to "round up" to 16 GB from 9.5
| |
| 04:55 | <ogra_cmpc> 128M per running session
| |
| 04:55 | <jamey_> ahh, well it's going to be an ubuntu LTSP server
| |
| 04:55 | does that make it heavier lol
| |
| 04:55 | <Nubae> I run about 40 concurrent connections at any one time and never see the server go above 7 gigs
| |
| 04:55 | <ogra_cmpc> +256 for the server to operate
| |
| 04:55 | <jamey_> righty, so you both think 8 GB would be plenty?
| |
| 04:55 | <Nubae> although I'm killing user sessions continously
| |
| 04:55 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah
| |
| 04:55 | <jamey_> then I can get a cheaper motherboard...
| |
| 04:56 | okay cool
| |
| 04:56 | <ogra_cmpc> having another 8 might speed up disk access through better caching etc
| |
| 04:56 | <jamey_> ah okay, well it's so cheap right now...
| |
| 04:56 | <Nubae> yeah true it is
| |
| 04:56 | <ogra_cmpc> so it surely makes sense and is future oriented :)
| |
| 04:56 | <Nubae> if the motherboard can take it
| |
| 04:56 | spectra has quit IRC | |
| 04:56 | <ogra_cmpc> but its not mandatory
| |
| 04:57 | 8G should suffice
| |
| 04:57 | <jamey_> yeah I haven't really researched it enough, most boards take only 8 GB unless you go gaming/server
| |
| 04:57 | <ogra_cmpc> another 8 is a nice extra
| |
| 04:57 | <jamey_> :)
| |
| 04:58 | <Nubae> yesterday my server almost collapsed after running 20 gnash sessions concurrently
| |
| 04:58 | i hate flash
| |
| 04:58 | <jamey_> ew that's disgusting, can't there be a processing limit on gnash processes or something
| |
| 04:58 | <ogra_cmpc> Nubae, well, gnash is still young it might have more memory leaks than firefox at the current state :)
| |
| 04:59 | <Nubae> heh
| |
| 04:59 | yeah it spawns multiple processes per page
| |
| 04:59 | but its the only thing that runs youtube for me
| |
| 04:59 | <ogra_cmpc> even though i heard it works with most videos nowadays
| |
| 05:00 | <Nubae> yeah and it works on 64 bit
| |
| 05:00 | <ogra_cmpc> i'm working on libflsahsupport ... flash should be fine by release as well
| |
| 05:00 | with a lib32 version for amd64
| |
| 05:02 | <Nubae> oh nice
| |
| 05:03 | <ogra_cmpc> its just a matter of time ... i need to find some to invest there :)

| 09:18 | <alumno10> hi all
| |
| 09:19 | how can i umount usbdrive in clients by command?
| |
| 09:21 | <ogra_cmpc> they are not mounted so you cant unmount them... just pull them out
| |
| 09:21 | <alumno10> but if data get corrupted?
| |
| 09:22 | <ogra_cmpc> the device is actually only mounted during read or write operations
| |
| 09:22 | two seconds afterthe last operation was done it gets transparently unmounted
| |
| 09:22 | <alumno10> wow, nice!
| |
| 09:22 | ok, thanks
| |
| 09:22 | <ogra_cmpc> so generally: as long as you see a progress bar, dont poull it out ;)
| |
| 09:23 | <alumno10> I see, ok thanks a lot
| |
| 09:23 | <ogra_cmpc> thats the magic of ltspfs, it pretends its actually mounted all the time until you remove it physically
| |
| 09:24 | mccann has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:24 | <alumno10> another question, when i use another server, sometimes clients closes connection

| 09:24 | and restart X on it
| |
| 09:25 | why it could be happening?
| |

| 09:36 | <alumno10> hi jammcq
| |
| 09:36 | <jammcq> hey
| |
| 09:37 | <alumno10> do you know something about ltsp?
| |
| 09:37 | i have a question
| |
| 09:38 | <jammcq> ok
| |
| 09:40 | <alumno10> my clients have sis7019 sound hardware, which is not longer supported by kernel since 2.6.14 or so, then i found an usb sound adapters, do you think it could be the solution?
| |
| 09:41 | <jammcq> hmm, what version of LTSP ?
| |
| 09:41 | <cliebow_> alumno10, yes he does know a little qbout ltsp
| |
| 09:42 | <alumno10> ltsp5
| |
| 09:42 | <jammcq> well, it *should* work. perhaps ogra could chime in here
| |
| 09:46 | <alumno10> jammcq, and with the sis7019 hardware, do i have a solution?
| |
| 09:47 | i've tried to compile module sources, and i got bad module format or so
| |
| 09:47 | <jammcq> I don't think the driver has ever made it into ubuntu repositories. I've tried many times to contact the author of the driver, but i've never gotten the permission to push the driver code upstream
| |
| 09:47 | and the version of the driver that I have is quite old
| |
| 09:49 | <alumno10> :/ damn, i have like 30 clients with that hardware :/
| |
| 09:49 | how i put edubuntu gutsy and sound obviously stops working
| |
| 09:49 | *now
| |
| 09:50 | ogra_cmpc has quit IRC | |
| 09:50 | mikkel has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:50 | <alumno10> how can i contact driver author, maybe i can make him change your mind

| |
| 09:52 | ogra_cmpc has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:52 | laga has left #ltsp | |
| 09:55 | <alumno10> jammcq, do you have email or something to contact sis7019 driver author?
| |
| 09:55 | <jammcq> I don't have it here right now. I'd have to dig into very old emails to find it
| |
| 09:56 | the problem is, SiS wrote the driver, and they said we could use it for whatever we want, but they haven't given "Official" permission. and that is what is needed for upstream inclusion
| |
| 09:58 | <alumno10> when you have free time, could you pls find it , its kind of important, since im working in nice free basic computing learning center for childs, and we have like >30 clients with its sound hardware you know.
| |
| 10:00 | I really apretiate if you contact me to give that info
| |
| 10:01 | <ogra_cmpc> jammcq, i heard oss is pretty much over in the kernel ... it will vanish soon
| |
| 10:01 | <jammcq> ah yes, there's always that problem too
| |
| 10:01 | <alumno10> i have this driver, but i cannot make it work
| |
| 10:01 | <jammcq> the driver is oss, not alsa
| |
| 10:02 | <alumno10> i know but i dont know much about how to configure it to work
| |
| 10:02 | could you please help me?

| 10:17 | <bjorn> i'm having trouble rebuilding the client kernel on ubuntu ltsp (i'm trying to test a kernel bugfix). i'm an ltsp newbie, so hopefully my error is obvious:

| |
| 10:22 | <alumno10> ogra_cmpc, how can i use oss sis7019 drivers in clients?
| |
| 10:24 | <ogra_cmpc> make the kernel build the oss stack and compile the module against that its a very hard task and you wont have fun with the result as i told you before the sound isnt usable even if you get the module running
| |

| |
| 10:28 | <sutula> bjorn: dpkg seems to know that the nbi file is already owned by another package...perhaps you can get around it with a force option to dpkg

| 10:33 | <bjorn> sutula: see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10138 . only happens if you run X with DRI enabled

| |
| 10:43 | <bjorn> ogra_cmpc, but i suppose i can work around it by making my rebuilt kernel 2.6.22-15-386 instead of 2.6.22-14-386?
| |
| 10:43 | <ogra_cmpc> mccann, https://code.launchpad.net/~ltsp-upstream

| 10:43 | <bjorn> i'd prefer that anyway, so i don't clobber my working kernel

| 10:43 | <ogra_cmpc> bjorn, i wonder why you have the same script in postrm and preinst

| |
| 10:48 | bjorn, do you use etherboot anywhere ?
| |
| 10:50 | <bjorn> ogra_cmpc: i don't use the etherboot package. i do (of course) boot my t5710 over the LAN, but that's using the lanboot support that's standard on the t5710
| |
| 10:50 | <ogra_cmpc> is that PXE compatible ?
| |
| 10:51 | you could just mv /usr/sbin/mkelfImage /usr/sbin/mkelfImage,orig ...
| |
| 10:51 | the test in the script acts on: which /usr/sbin/mkelfImage
| |
| 10:51 | so if you rename it and remove the nbi image etherboot images should be skipped completely

| 10:54 | <bjorn> sutula: you're not using aw's custom DSDT, are you? guess you must not, because you'd have to rebuild your ltsp kernel to do so. take a look at your /proc/interrupts and see if it has the VGA device in it
| |
| 10:54 | * sutula looks | |
| 10:56 | <ogra_cmpc> you have to recompile to use a different dsdt ???

| 11:42 | <bjorn> ogra_cmpc: oops, looks like ubuntu has CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD=y, so you wouldn't have to recompile. but in general, that's only good for developers, not users
| |
| 11:42 | steph_ has quit IRC | |
| 11:43 | <ogra_cmpc> bjorn, well, if you have a support case it might help to guide the user through putting a new dsdt in place and runing update-initramfs
| |
| 11:44 | i think there is more use than developing in it :)
| |
| 11:44 | <bjorn> ogra_cmpc, yes, but ultimately the firmware workaround should go in the OS, because a custom DSDT is not really supportable (IMHO)
| |
| 11:45 | <ogra_cmpc> that doesnt help with a released system a customer wants to have running *right now*
| |
| 11:45 | <bjorn> right
| |
| 11:45 | <ogra_cmpc> dont forget canonical only lives from software integration and support ;)
| |
| 11:46 | indeed we try to make our work as easy as possible :)
| |
| 11:47 | <bjorn> i don't really understand the nbi thing. are you saying that nbi is only required by the etherboot pkg, and since i don't use that, all i need is the vmlinuz and initrd.img?
| |
| 11:48 | <ogra_cmpc> nbo is an etherboot image
| |
| 11:48 | if your clients do etherboot they will ask for this one
| |
| 11:48 | <warren> ogra_cmpc, meaning you have no job if you eliminate all bugs?
| |
| 11:48 | <ogra_cmpc> warren, haha
| |
| 11:49 | * ogra_cmpc giggles about "eliminate all bugs" | |
| 11:49 | <warren> "kill all humans"
| |
| 11:49 | <ogra_cmpc> heh, yeah
| |
| 11:51 | <bjorn> ogra_cmpc: my /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default edits do make a difference, so i infer that my client requests /ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0 rather than /ltsp/i386/nbi.img. so i guess that means i indeed don't need nbi.img
| |
| 11:53 | <ogra_cmpc> simple check ... mv it away, boot a client :)
| |
| 11:57 | <warren> Anyone on Fedora 8 up for testing LTSP5? I need some private testing before I put it up for public testing.

| 12:00 | <alumno10> hi all
| |
| 12:01 | <warren> Q-FUNK, how goes amd driver release?
| |
| 12:03 | <Q-FUNK> warren: waiting for pciaccess port.
| |
| 12:05 | <alumno10> warren, do you know usb sound adapter?
| |
| 12:06 | <warren> No, haven't met him yet. I only met his father.
| |
| 12:06 | alumno10, what do you mean?
| |
| 12:07 | <alumno10> those usb sound adapter
| |
| 12:07 | its like an usb drive but with mic/speaker female plugs
| |
| 12:08 | the problem is that my clients have sis7019 sound hardware but is not longer support by kernel since 2.6.14 or so
| |
| 12:08 | then, i was thinkin what about if i use thouse usb sound adapters
| |
| 12:10 | TelnetManta has joined #ltsp | |

| |
| 12:13 | <Guaraldo> alumno10: There is a package to change sound system on terminals from oss to alsa...
| |
| 12:14 | <alumno10> Guaraldo, i dont know how to make sis7019 sound driver works
| |
| 12:15 | i have like 3 kinds of sis7019 modules, included sources, but i cannot make it works with 2.6.22-14-386 client kernel
| |
| 12:16 | <cliebow_> 3
| |
| 12:17 | <Guaraldo> alumno10: hummm... are you using LTSP5???
| |
| 12:17 | <alumno10> yes, with edubuntu gutsy
| |
| 12:17 | <Guaraldo> Oh!, sory, I thoght it was 4.2... :-D
| |
| 12:19 | <alumno10> maybe in 4.2 sound could works, but i lose features of ltsp5

| |
| 12:26 | then, if i use k12 i could make sis7019 sound hardware works in clients?
| |
| 12:26 | <ogra> warren, you have a driver with legal code for it in fedora o_O
| |
| 12:26 | ?
| |
| 12:26 | * warren checks | |
| 12:26 | <ogra> afaik there was never a licensed version of the code

| |
| 12:27 | ogra, we wouldn't include it if it weren't GPL
| |
| 12:27 | I only did some cursory testing of this
| |
| 12:27 | no idea if it works
| |
| 12:27 | <ogra> \it cant be gpl
| |
| 12:27 | it was never licensed by sis
| |
| 12:28 | <warren> ogra, the sources that jim was pointing out earlier was a broken OSS driver
| |
| 12:28 | ogra, you mean that?
| |
| 12:28 | <ogra> it will likkely work as well as the one for 2.6.16 that floats around on the ltsp wiki
| |
| 12:28 | <warren> we don't ship any OSS at all
| |
| 12:28 | this is an ALSA driver
| |
| 12:28 | <ogra> huh ?
| |
| 12:28 | <alumno10> warren, in the web you wrote, it says that this sound hardware works in feisty
| |
| 12:28 | <warren> we ship with OSS completely disabled
| |
| 12:28 | alumno10, web I wrote?
| |
| 12:28 | <ogra> where did you get that ?
| |
| 12:29 | <warren> ogra, upstream alsa
| |
| 12:29 | <ogra> trhats not in alsa upstrem
| |

| 12:39 | <bjorn> ogra, i patched my kernel, ran "dch -i", and rebuilt with "fakeroot debian/rules binary-386", hoping it would build a linux-image-2.6.22-15-386 instead of linux-image-2.6.22-14-386. but it just built linux-image-2.6.22-14-386 again. what should i have done?
| |
| 12:40 | <ogra> bjorn, no idea, i have compiled my last kernel about 4 years ago :)
| |
| 12:40 | * ogra points bjorn to #ubuntu-kernel | |
| 12:41 | <ogra> there is nothing i cant do in the initramfs ... i havent seen a need for compiling a core kernel for years

| |
| 12:52 | Q-FUNK has quit IRC | |
| 12:54 | <bjorn> ogra, my bad; it *did* build a different .deb. similar enough that installing it replaces the previous, but that's good enough for now
| |
| 12:54 | <ogra> yeah
| |
| 12:54 | it wont raise the API number in the package name, but the package version :)
| |
| 12:57 | Q-FUNK has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:01 | <alumno10> ogra, edubuntu feisty comes with ltsp5 and sis7019 sound hardware support, right?
| |
| 13:04 | <warren> alumno10, want to try Fedora 8? sis7019 might be working, and LTSP5 is almost complete there
| |
| 13:04 | alumno10, I need testers
| |
| 13:05 | <alumno10> warren, I could do that but, now im working in a system used all day and i cannot make tests :/
| |
| 13:05 | <warren> ok
| |
| 13:05 | <alumno10> its a free basic computing learning center
| |
| 13:06 | thats why i need so much sis7019 support
| |
| 13:07 | i promised you that i'll test fedora 8
| |
| 13:07 | but in 1 or 2 more weeks

| |
| 13:15 | <alumno10> ok, thanks
| |
| 13:17 | :o fedora 9 alpha =B~
| |
| 13:17 | <warren> alumno10, LTSP5 is less capable there, working on that now
| |
| 13:17 | alumno10, you might have trouble with kernel or X not working in F9
| |
| 13:19 | <alumno10> no, I could use f8 in works systems, but f9 just for curiosity :P
| |
| 13:20 | warren, what about k12? better than edubuntu?
| |
| 13:20 | <warren> alumno10, no
| |
| 13:20 | alumno10, K12LTSP is based on fedora 6 and LTSP4
| |
| 13:21 | alumno10, K12Linux will be LTSP5 on Fedora 8+
| |
| 13:21 | <alumno10> humm i see
| |
| 13:22 | i think i'll make tests with edubuntu feisty, since it supports sis7019 and comes with ltsp5
| |
| 13:22 | according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/187879
| |
| 13:23 | warren, could you pls check this website, since english isn't my main language
| |
| 13:23 | I understood that feisty brings with sis7019 support
| |
| 13:23 | <warren> alumno10, I have nothing to do wiht Ubuntu
| |
| 13:23 | alumno10, this bug is talking about the OSS driver for sis7019 which is known to be very broken
| |
| 13:23 | alumno10, Fedora 8 has the ALSA driver which is entirely different
| |
| 13:24 | <alumno10> and fedora 8 comes with ltsp5 and sis7019 alsa drivers, right?
| |
| 13:24 | <warren> alumno10, no
| |
| 13:24 | alumno10, LTSP5 is an add-on I'm working on, it 80% works now
| |
| 13:24 | alumno10, I still need to fix pulseaudio, but very close
| |
| 13:24 | <alumno10> ok, thanks
| |
| 13:25 | <warren> alumno10, sis7019 comes with Fedora 8 updates
| |
| 13:25 | <alumno10> then to make sis7019 works i have to change alsa to oss, is that possible?
| |
| 13:26 | ...in ltsp5, in lts.conf?
| |
| 13:26 | <warren> alumno10, if you are asking about ubuntu, I have no idea.
| |
| 13:27 | <alumno10> no, not specifically ubuntu, any distro with ltsp5
| |
| 13:28 | <warren> alumno10, in Fedora the sound driver should automatically load
| |
| 13:28 | alumno10, but I haven't tested that yet
| |
| 13:30 | <alumno10> ok, i might try fedora 8 today or in a near day, cause i have to solve this sound problem soon
| |
| 13:33 | <warren> alumno10, LTSP5 isn't complete on Fedora yet, you WILL run into different problems
| |
| 13:34 | <rjune_> warren: you're so positive.

| 13:50 | ogra, that actually isn't going to work either, because there are some legitimate non-UTF-8 locales

| |
| 14:20 | curiously geode is the only thing that does this
| |
| 14:20 | <Q-FUNK> hm?
| |
| 14:20 | come again?
| |
| 14:21 | <warren> when screen scripts run here, it makes the monitor just stop displaying any text
| |
| 14:21 | I didn't even run X
| |
| 14:21 | <vs-adm> alright, actually I have a problem with LTSP here: Xorg autodetects screen resolution incorrectly and monitor hangs. How can I set explicit resolution?
| |
| 14:22 | can't find any refs in documentation

| 14:24 | <sutula> vs-adm: Does http://wiki.debian.org/LTSP/Howto help, or have you seen that
| |
| 14:24 | * Gadi has found weirdness with the fb | |
| 14:24 | <Gadi> tho, you may want to load it and see what happens on ur box
| |
| 14:24 | * sutula recalls some stuff about disabling autodetection stuff there | |
| 14:25 | <warren> never heard of lxfb

| 14:25 | <Gadi> vs-adm: X_MODE_0 = 1024x768
| |
| 14:25 | <warren> not sure we have it
| |
| 14:25 | <Gadi> warren: what kernel version?
| |
| 14:25 | <warren> Gadi, 2.6.24+
| |
| 14:25 | Gadi, are you sure that's even in the upstream kernel? sounds like an add-on
| |
| 14:25 | <vs-adm> sutula, yes, I used this howto to setup everything
| |
| 14:26 | <Gadi> should be in the upstream kernel > 2.6.22
| |
| 14:26 | <vs-adm> Gadi, is it? there is no such parameter in documentation
| |
| 14:26 | <Gadi> vs-adm: depends on ur documentation :)
| |
| 14:26 | <sutula> vs-adm: see Gadi's response...do you have an lts.conf?
