01:40 | <hari_> does anyone have any experience installing graphic card for clients in ltsp?
| |
01:41 | i installed ati radeon X1550 in client and server. It works fine at server.
| |
01:42 | but the client don't
| |
01:42 | when i check it use $ fglrxinfo at client it said Mesa
| |
01:43 | it should said ATI like i check it at server
| |
01:43 | please help me..rgds
| |
01:46 | <johnny> did you install the proprietary ati driver in the chroot?
| |
01:48 | <hari_> yes, yes i installed proprietary driver for ubuntu gutsy at server.. and it works fine
| |
01:49 | <johnny> it needs to be installed in the chroot too
| |
01:49 | <hari_> I think client will automatically know the graphic card driver when i use the same card, but not
| |
01:49 | sorry, ... i don't know how to do it in chroot
| |
01:49 | <johnny> there's a part that happens before it switches into X
| |
01:50 | that part is only happening on your server
| |
01:50 | the fglrx kernel module
| |
01:50 | it neds to be in the chroot too
| |
01:50 | i'm not sure if it's as simple as chroot /path/to/chroot and then trying to use your package manager to install it
| |
01:51 | <hari_> i don't know how to use chroot. is it package that i can installed from synaptic?
| |
01:52 | <johnny> no
| |
01:52 | you have it
| |
01:52 | you should wait for an ubuntu user to help you install it into the chroot.. or just search for it on the web
| |
01:53 | i wouldn't want to tell you to do the wrong thing
| |
01:53 | <hari_> yes..thanks, i will search it..
| |
01:57 | basically, do ineed to installed the driver into chroot or certain directory?
| |
02:02 | i think i have to update my ltsp with the new installed driver. in gutsy it's only type $ ltsp-update-image
| |
02:03 | will try at home, cause my computer is at home

| |
02:09 | <hari_> tahu aja mas .. he he. thanks, search it..
| |
02:11 | <ogra_cmpc> hari_, we dont install the linux-restricted-modules package in the chroot by default (it uses a tmpfs for all the drivers which eats about 30M extra ram (make sure to have that extra buffer in your clients before even starting))
| |
02:12 | <johnny> serious? isn't there a way to avoid that?
| |
02:12 | |Paradox| has quit IRC | |
02:12 | <ogra_cmpc> not with the current kernel upstream and its attitude towards closed drivers, no

| |
02:15 | without violating the kernel l.icensing
| |
02:22 | <hari_> ogra_cmpc: so do you agree that i need to update the image using $ ltsp-update-image (using ubuntu gutsy) ?
| |
02:23 | <ogra_cmpc> after you made all changes, yes
| |
02:24 | ltsp-update-image will recompress the image in /opt/ltsp/images (which is what your client uses to run) based on what is under /opt/ltsp/i386
| |
02:28 | <hari_> yes, new graphic card driver work fine at my server. but i don't update the image yet when trying it at client.
| |
02:28 | will try later at home, thanks again..
| |
02:28 | <ogra_cmpc> the driver needs to be installed in the chroot
| |
02:28 | not on the server
| |
02:29 | <hari_> i build ltsp using ltsp-build-client. so how to install new driver in chroot. sorry, can you tell me more or show some links... rgds
| |
02:30 | <ogra_cmpc> i'd suggest to read up about the chroot command ... essentially you do: sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386
| |
02:31 | that makes /opt/ltsp/i386 appear as / and you can make changes, install packages etc
| |
02:31 | to leave the chroot shell you hit ctrl-d
| |
02:31 | if you are done with all chages you want for the client you then run sudo ltsp-update-image

| |
08:41 | <vagrantc> i think squashfs is finally working in debian sid again
| |
08:41 | <ogra_cmpc> yay
| |
08:41 | i'm always curious why they just dont pull from us
| |
08:42 | * vagrantc wonders what the status of unionfs and aufs is | |
08:42 | <ogra_cmpc> squash and union are so essential to ubuntu that they usually always work
| |
08:42 | * ogra_cmpc will try aufs in intrpid | |
08:42 | <vagrantc> right, i'd imagine issues with them get very high priority
| |
08:43 | i'm hoping i can get the meta-initramfs-tools stuff in ... i.e. a single script that figures out weather to do nbd+FOO+BAR or nfs or whatever.
| |
08:43 | <ogra_cmpc> casper has the hooks already and linux-ubuntu-modules ships it by default ... its just a matter of flipping the switch
| |
08:44 | Gadi has joined #ltsp | |
08:44 | <vagrantc> i'm torn between just uploading a new ldm to unstable or uploading it to experimental, or just plain waiting a while.
| |
08:45 | kind of want to wait till the french translation comes out, at least.
| |
08:45 | cliebow has joined #ltsp | |
08:45 | <ogra_cmpc> french is overrated
| |
08:45 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: heh
| |
08:45 | <ogra_cmpc> get all the zn and zh ones :)
| |
08:45 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: don't tell Pascal_1...
| |
08:46 | <vagrantc> yeah, but they already have a partial translation, and i just put the request for translations out .... some small number of days ago.
| |
08:46 | <ogra_cmpc> daduke, i assume he knows i'm joking :)
| |
08:46 | <daduke> ogra_cmpc: you never know with the French...
| |
08:48 | <vagrantc> de, es, eu and sv are 100% translated for LDM ... hu about 70-80% (for some odd reason) and fr about 25% (the default screen is all translated)
| |
08:48 | i'm guessing fr will get updated within a day or two, someone's already said they're working on it.
| |
08:50 | <Gadi> speaking of translations and such, do you guys know what font package needs to be installed in a chroot for firefox to be able to go to say, korean websites?
| |
08:50 | * vagrantc is a little font clueless | |
08:50 | * Gadi too - as an ignorant American | |
08:51 | * vagrantc tambien | |
08:51 | <Gadi> gringo
| |
08:51 | <vagrantc> si.
| |
08:51 | no tengo accentos
| |
08:51 | * Gadi couldn't tell ;) | |
08:51 | <Pascal_1> what !!!!????
| |
08:52 | hello all!!
| |
08:52 | * vagrantc stays out of it | |
08:52 | <Gadi> vagrantc: do your translations rely on certain fonts istalled in the chroot?
| |
08:52 | *installed
| |
08:53 | ie for accent grave and such?
| |
08:54 | <vagrantc> Gadi: haven't had any problems so far, but all pretty much european languages
| |
08:54 | <ogra_cmpc> Gadi, look for the deps of the language-support*-kr package
| |
08:54 | <Gadi> ogra_cmpc: good idea
| |
08:55 | <ogra_cmpc> in ubuntu they usually install the needed fonts
| |
08:55 | * Gadi hopes for a magic unicode font to kill all | |
08:55 | <ogra_cmpc> dejavu covers lots
| |
08:55 | <Gadi> yeah, but not korean - at least in ff
| |
08:56 | perhaps ff has its own reqs
| |
08:56 | <cliebow> yikes!sandbox hNGS AT "STATING SYSTEM MESSAGE BUS
| |
08:56 | <Gadi> the whole "local ff" is a pandora's box of extra packages :)
| |
08:56 | <ogra_cmpc> not only that
| |
08:56 | have fun to get sound and printing working :P
| |
08:56 | or themeing
| |
08:59 | oh, and indeed for UI localization you should have the language pack installed in the chroot as well :)
| |
08:59 | (-pack, not -support, the latter is huge)
| |
09:00 | <Gadi> hmm - weird
| |
09:00 | I can go to korean sites on a gutsy box with none of that languages-support stuff installed, and it works fine
| |
09:01 | <ogra_cmpc> the chroot has only xfonts-base by default
| |
09:01 | (only the bare minimum ldm needs)
| |
09:01 | install the other xfont packages you find in main or just the xorg metapackage
| |
09:03 | * Gadi wonders if he could ask firefox what font its using | |
09:03 | <Gadi> :)

| |
09:28 | <vagrantc> squashfs is working on debian sid, unionfs is still borked. need to figure out aufs and give that a whirl.
| |
09:28 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, i would advise against it, after all the hardwork of getting aufs working i dropped it, keep using bind mounts
| |
09:29 | <vagrantc> laga: you have links to your aufs code and/or patches ? might be able to use them in debian
| |
09:29 | cyberorg: well, i intend to make that possible as well.
| |
09:29 | joebaker has quit IRC | |
09:31 | <cyberorg> aufs was broken in 2.6.25 RCs
| |
09:32 | all the fringe modules have a tendency to break every now and then
| |
09:32 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: my goal is to make the initramfs-tools scripts generalized to support many of the various modes
| |
09:32 | no doubt.
| |
09:32 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, that sounds like a good idea
| |
09:32 | <vagrantc> don't know if other distros are likely to adopt initramfs-tools ...
| |
09:33 | <cyberorg> we can still use unionfs, aufs or the split system(kind of tmpfs mounts) now, but "officially" default will be split type
| |
09:33 | it does need more ram than aufs though
| |
09:34 | <vagrantc> more?
| |
09:34 | abadger1999 has quit IRC | |
09:34 | abadger1999 has joined #ltsp | |
09:34 | <vagrantc> on the rare occasions unionfs was working, it used considerably more than tmpfs+bind mounts
| |
09:35 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, the split system does some weird tarball of all the folders and creates symlinks to rw part of all the files that require rw access, all folders, i think are rw
| |
09:36 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: why not just bind-mount directories?
| |
09:36 | <cyberorg> folders are rw, but files if not listed as required rw are ro
| |
09:37 | <warren> vagrantc, used ram?
| |
09:37 | vagrantc, their split system is similar to our rwtab, except we use cpio instead of tar.
| |
09:37 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, not sure about that
| |
09:37 | <vagrantc> all the symlink trees seem... ugly.
| |
09:38 | if it's a huge tree of symlinks, and a huge tree of directories, it can actually get large.
| |
09:38 | jammcq has joined #ltsp | |
09:38 | <vagrantc> warren: i though your rwtab was more similar to what debian does- just mounting directories and files with bind
| |
09:38 | <warren> vagrantc, we don't use symlinks, we use bind mounts
| |
09:38 | <jammcq> hey kidz
| |
09:39 | <vagrantc> warren: yeah, exactly.
| |
09:39 | * vagrantc waves to jammcq | |
09:39 | <warren> vagrantc, yes, but cpio is used to drop things into the tmpfs

09:41 | <jammcq> it's nice to see it's happening now
| |
09:41 | <cyberorg> jammcq, opensuse-edu is mostly community effort

09:42 | <jammcq> yeah, apparently it's the community that knows how to make things happen, in spite of upper mgmt
| |
09:42 | <cyberorg> xachen, yeah, it has a lot of add ons that can be used elsewhere, i like italc integration
| |
09:43 | <xachen> ya, I'm debating Suse vs. Ubuntu atm
| |
09:43 | needs to be dead simple
| |
09:43 | <cyberorg> xachen, ubuntu's ltsp is still better :)
| |
09:44 | suse is dead simple, but still bit resource hungry
| |
09:44 | <xachen> I'm just curious if those eBox'es would do a good job, or if they would lag the X session

10:07 | * Gadi checks l-u-i | |
10:08 | <ogra_cmpc> thats only squashfs/nbd
| |
10:08 | <Gadi> hmm right
| |
10:09 | <vagrantc> the chroot-side stuff was removed at some point
| |
10:09 | * vagrantc resisted the idea | |
10:09 | <ogra_cmpc> err
| |
10:10 | <vagrantc> well, not removed ... ltsp-update-kernels doesn't do anything buy copy ...
| |
10:10 | <ogra_cmpc> vagrantc, and /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/lib/ltsp/update-kernels ?
| |
10:10 | <vagrantc> i've been thinking about putting it back in
| |
10:10 | <ogra_cmpc> shouldnt that regenerate the nbi image ?
| |
10:10 | <vagrantc> yes
| |
10:10 | <Gadi> ah
| |
10:10 | <ogra_cmpc> Gadi, ^^^
| |
10:10 | <vagrantc> Gadi: so run that :)
| |
10:11 | <Gadi> so I could do: chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 /usr/lib/update-kernels
| |
10:11 | */usr/lib/ltsp
| |
10:11 | or do I run it outside chroot
| |
10:11 | ?
| |
10:11 | <vagrantc> inside
| |
10:11 | <Gadi> ok
| |
10:11 | here goes nothing...
| |
10:13 | hmm
| |
10:13 | Cannot open "/boot/nbi..." File exists
| |
10:13 | * vagrantc fixed that in debian | |
10:13 | <Gadi> should I delete the nbi file first?
| |
10:13 | <vagrantc> Gadi: just delete or move aside the existing nbi*.img
| |
10:13 | <Gadi> okey dokey
| |
10:15 | <Q-FUNK> odd, I thought that I had filed a bug about that
| |
10:15 | <ogra_cmpc> i guess gadi is on gutsy
| |
10:15 | * Gadi nods | |
10:16 | * Gadi is in too deep ! :) | |
10:16 | <ogra_cmpc> vagrantc's fix is in hardy

10:25 | <Gadi> ogra_cmpc: you wrote the current ltsp-nbd initramfs script, right?
| |
10:26 | <ogra_cmpc> yes
| |
10:26 | well, the base
| |
10:26 | there were plenty of patches
| |
10:26 | <Gadi> quick qu: do you know where the default IPOPTS or DEVICE are set for the case statement
| |
10:26 | I notice it *can* be set by cmdline
| |
10:27 | but, I don't see where the defaults are
| |
10:27 | <ogra_cmpc> thats code i stole from the nfs script, i think the kernel sets it in a file in /tmp
| |
10:27 | <Gadi> and obviously, it sets for eth0
| |
10:27 | <ogra_cmpc> for the first device it finnds, yes
| |
10:28 | ah, wait, no
| |
10:28 | <Gadi> heh - im just not sure which of the case statements it uses by default :)
| |
10:28 | <ogra_cmpc> that file is created by ipconfig after the device is set up
| |
10:28 | <Gadi> yeah, thats what I thought
| |
10:28 | but, for the life of me, I cannot find where things are set normally
| |
10:29 | and ipconfig without an argument errors out
| |
10:29 | :)
| |
10:29 | * Gadi hates magic | |
10:30 | <ogra_cmpc> i guess the kernel exports it somehow
| |
10:30 | MacIver has quit IRC | |
10:34 | <ogra_cmpc> or udev
| |
10:34 | boot with break=top and check if its there already
| |
10:35 | <Gadi> hmm good idea
| |
10:35 | <ogra_cmpc> then with the different other break options to find out when its added
| |
10:36 | grep maybe_break /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/init
| |
10:36 | for a list
| |
10:36 | * Gadi still likes to send "LTSP" as a VCI (which can be done with a -i "LTSP" to ipconfig), but being in the rush that I am and not wanting to break anything, I just patched the default in klibc :P | |
10:37 | <Gadi> would be much cleaner to patch ltsp-nbd
| |
10:37 | :)
| |
10:37 | <ogra_cmpc> well, send a patch for intrepid :)
| |
10:37 | <Q-FUNK> or migrate to haryd
| |
10:37 | <Gadi> intrepid?
| |
10:37 | it that yet-another-dhcp-client?
| |
10:38 | <ogra_cmpc> i have enough patches for this week to review, thanks :) hardy is done, whats not on LP or majorly important will go to intrepid
| |
10:38 | <Gadi> oh, you mean hardy+1
| |
10:38 | lol
| |
10:38 | <ogra_cmpc> intrepid ibex

10:38 | * ogra_cmpc loves how he learns animal names thorough his distro :) | |

10:39 | <ogra_cmpc> heh

10:39 | <Q-FUNK> or in o reiley's backyard
| |
10:39 | surrounded by b&w images of exotic beasts
| |
10:40 | <ogra_cmpc> he definately loves ubuntu
| |
10:40 | else o'reilly wouldnt do ubuntulive
| |
10:42 | <jammcq> ogra_cmpc: you gonna be at UbuntuLive?
| |
10:42 | <ogra_cmpc> jammcq, still discussing, i'd love to but wasnt asked ... now that vagrant and warren want to do a hackfest i try to get comapny covering
| |
10:43 | <jammcq> cool. I talked to Scotty, he's in favor of showing up too
| |
10:43 | <ogra_cmpc> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2008-April/141318.html .... written on thunderbird ....
| |
10:43 | <jammcq> maybe we can get Gadi and others
| |
10:43 | <ogra_cmpc> Users ... you must love them
| |
10:44 | jammcq, that'd be cool
| |
10:45 | * Gadi has been under a rock of late - lemme know when and where the party is :) | |
10:45 | <ogra_cmpc> Gadi, ubuntulive.com
| |
10:45 | portland .... attached to oscon
| |
10:46 | with a ltsp hackfest before or after oscon
| |
10:46 | <Gadi> oscon is same week?
| |
10:46 | <jammcq> ya
| |
10:46 | <Gadi> ubuntulive seems to be mon/tue
| |
10:47 | so, oscon is wed-fri?
| |
10:47 | <ogra_cmpc> the last ubuntulive was in advance of oscon

11:04 | <gvy> ah, sorry, my fault then :)
| |
11:04 | you mentioned a custom BS last week
| |
11:04 | er, image buildsystem
| |
11:05 | <ogra_cmpc> i'm building thpethial image for a thpethial device with dedicated setup based on ubuntu
| |
11:05 | <Q-FUNK> custom bullshit???
| |
11:05 | thepe... what???
| |
11:05 | <gvy> ogra_cmpc, and i'm building thpethial thtuff now too (yet again), after a major revamp stuck in the mid-air :)
| |
11:06 | just wished to say you're not alone with thith :)
| |
11:06 | <ogra_cmpc> youre not alone with it :)
| |
11:06 | either ;)
| |
11:07 | but my thing is really dedicated OS for dedicated HW ...
| |
11:07 | <gvy> led's working on xconf patches (an utility to poke in xorg.conf, we need to stretch it a bit)... hopefully will get to rehashing patchset tomorrow
| |
11:08 | ogra_cmpc, my case is probably much simpler, generic os for generic hw :)
| |
11:08 | <ogra_cmpc> ahh, good for you :)
| |
11:09 | i'm just crying over suspend resume issues with root on usb
| |
11:09 | <gvy> Q-FUNK, honestly, *before* shortening "buildsystem" didn't think of the outcome :)
| |
11:09 | <Q-FUNK> ah
| |
11:09 | <gvy> and mine one would try to do resume=/dev/md0 with two hdds, have to teach it some more manners

| |
11:21 | she cannot say no: she loves practicing her french with me! ;)
| |
11:21 | <ogra_cmpc> is she looking good ?
| |
11:21 | <Q-FUNK> cute face, but excessive hips :S
| |
11:22 | <laga> i think my euphemism detector went off o_O
| |
11:22 | <Q-FUNK> her collegues in Ankara were stunning though, especially this freshly hired one they had assigned to us for the prime minister visit
| |
11:23 | not to mention the one at Bilkent university that had learned just neough estonian to greet us welcome in our language
| |
11:24 | I'm definitely pinging this one next time I'm in Kavaklıdere
| |
11:25 | ogra_cmpc: it mostly is that she is absolutely charming and that she has a great sense of humor. the embassador also has a great sense of humor (she had to, with me creating small diplomatic incidents during our whole visit ;) )

| |
11:48 | <ogra_cmpc> ask bryce directly, yes, we can sync from new
| |
11:48 | but needs to be done manually
| |
11:54 | <Q-FUNK> hm
| |
11:55 | I could not file a bug asking for a sync, because there is no package called xserver-xorg-video-geode in ubuntu
| |
11:55 | ogra_cmpc: would you happen to know how to create it?
| |
11:56 | <ogra_cmpc> just file an unspecified bug, mention the package name and subscribe bryce
| |
12:01 | <Q-FUNK> I just filed it against -amd instead :)

14:05 | <Gadi> does anyone know if you can mount a /dev node on a loopback (ie /dev/loop*)
| |
14:06 | <vagrantc_> Gadi: i.e. losetup /dev/foobar /dev/loop0 ?
| |
14:06 | <Gadi> right
| |
14:06 | well, losetup /dev/loop* /dev/foobar
| |
14:06 | <vagrantc_> Gadi: exact syntax i don't know, but i believe yes
| |
14:06 | <Gadi> er, /dev/loop0
| |
14:06 | hmm
| |
14:06 | ok
| |
14:07 | the losetup seems to have worked, but mount does not like it
| |
14:08 | <vagrantc_> hrm. good luck.
| |
14:08 | vagrantc_ has quit IRC | |
14:12 | <warren> Gadi, no, losetup is only for files.
| |
14:12 | Gadi, why do you want to do this?
| |
14:13 | <ogra_cmpc> looping devices through hoops :)
| |
14:14 | <Gadi> I am, er, playing with nbd-mounting an encrypted fs
| |
14:14 | so, the dev in qu is /dev/nbd0
| |
14:14 | losetup take it
| |
14:15 | it is just mount that gives me "Invalid argument"
| |
14:15 | *takes
| |
14:15 | <ogra_cmpc> well ...
| |
14:15 | did you try the other way round ?
| |
14:15 | <Gadi> other way round?
| |
14:15 | <ogra_cmpc> loopback the file ... then attach nbd on top
| |
14:15 | <Gadi> the file is exported thru nbd
| |
14:16 | <ogra_cmpc> (assuming nbd sits on top of a file)
| |
14:16 | <johnny> hi guys
| |
14:16 | why does loggerhead have to be a turbogears app :(
| |
14:17 | <Gadi> hmm... Ill find a way to work it
| |
14:17 | too bad losetup is only for files
| |
14:17 | I thought everything is a file in Linux :)
| |
14:18 | <warren> Gadi, server is serving an encrypted nbd0 and you're trying to LUKS decrypt it?
| |
14:18 | <Gadi> pretty much
| |
14:19 | * warren doesn't understand how loop comes into the picture then | |
14:19 | <Gadi> I guess Ill have to export an unencrypted fs with the enc fs file on it
| |
14:19 | and loopmount that
| |
14:19 | well, how do you mount an encrypted nbd0 fs otherwise?
| |
14:19 | <warren> nbd0 is a raw block device
| |
14:19 | LUKS can be across the entire block device
| |
14:20 | <Gadi> im not sure about LUKS
| |
14:20 | Im not using LUKS per-se
| |
14:20 | <warren> oh
| |
14:20 | <Gadi> I am using AES encryption
| |
14:20 | loop-aes-utils
| |
14:20 | and friends
| |
14:21 | <ogra_cmpc> it has friends ?
| |
14:21 | <Gadi> :)
| |
14:21 | I like it
| |
14:22 | <ogra_cmpc> :)
| |
14:24 | <Gadi> well, until now
| |
14:24 | :P
| |
14:24 | LUKS uses dmsetup and /dev/mapper, huh?
| |
14:24 | hmm....

| |
15:33 | <ogra_cmpc> look in /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/doc/ltsp-client-core/examples/lts-parameters.txt.gz for suppported values
| |
15:34 | same goes for SWAPFILE_SIZE
| |
15:34 | LOCAL_APPS arent implemented yet in ltsp5
| |
15:34 | <lipe> thank you!
| |
15:34 | <ogra_cmpc> LOCAL_STORAGE is called LOCALDEV nowadays (and on by default)
| |
15:35 | RUNLEVEL iis not used
| |
15:35 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: i'm getting a lot of feedback here about localapps ...
| |
15:35 | <lipe> I read various websites about optimizations... i think it's confusing me
| |
15:35 | <ogra_cmpc> and LDM_DIRECTX needs a partched ldm i dont think that was in the etch default packages
| |
15:36 | * vagrantc nods | |
15:36 | <ogra_cmpc> lipe, yeah, likely for ltsp 4.x
| |
15:36 | which has docs scattered all over the web :)
| |
15:36 | vagrantc, working along sbalneavs design or something different ?
| |
15:36 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: just a flaming desire for it, that's all.

15:37 | <lipe> thank you again, i'm back to work on this!

15:37 | <ogra_cmpc> its just missing the flesh

15:37 | <ogra_cmpc> spain is s the opensource capital in edu ... really

15:39 | <vagrantc> 4000 desktops is one thing ... 4000 ltsp servers ... it's amazing!
| |
15:39 | <ogra_cmpc> even though the dont go with ltsp :(
| |
15:39 | *they
| |
15:39 | <warren> who is using 4000 servers?
| |
15:40 | <ogra_cmpc> extremadura, spain
| |
15:40 | <vagrantc> warren: junta de extremadura, a region in spain
| |
15:40 | <warren> oh
| |
15:40 | vagrantc, all debian based?
| |
15:40 | <ogra_cmpc> spain is big in that
| |
15:40 | <vagrantc> warren: not using just yet, in the process of being ready to deploy them
| |
15:40 | warren: yeah.
| |
15:41 | they've been using disk'ed systems ... something like 80,000+ desktops already.
| |
15:41 | <ogra_cmpc> warren, andalusia has a 300000 desktop setup running on guadalinex (ubuntu/edubuntu derivative)
| |
15:41 | <vagrantc> obviously, with those kind of numbers, ltsp starts to make a lot of sense.
| |
15:41 | <warren> ah
| |
15:41 | <ogra_cmpc> ltsp in every classroom there
| |
15:42 | the canarys have something similar with around 160000 desktops
| |
15:42 | <vagrantc> brings all my days spent with virtualbox and qemu some meaning :)
| |
15:42 | <warren> vagrantc, what kind of client hardware?
| |
15:42 | misc?
| |
15:42 | vagrantc, I hope they're covering your expenses to be there
| |
15:42 | <ogra_cmpc> its all government sponsored usually
| |
15:42 | <vagrantc> warren: they've currently got 1.4+GHz p-4's, i think...
| |
15:43 | warren: yeah, they got me here, put me up in a fancy hotel, and feed me wine with nearly every meal :)
| |
15:43 | <ogra_cmpc> spain ...
| |
15:43 | u22 has joined #ltsp | |
15:43 | <vagrantc> spain just ... gets it.
| |
15:44 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah
| |
15:44 | looking forward to my next sevilla visit :)
| |
15:44 | <warren> vagrantc, I guess you speak the language as well?
| |
15:44 | alekibango has joined #ltsp | |
15:44 | <vagrantc> warren: survival spanish ... not as good as i'd like.
| |
15:45 | u22 has quit IRC | |
15:45 | <vagrantc> food, transportation, i like, i don't like ... i'm vegetarian (and this is the litany of what that actually means)
| |
15:46 | and just enough spanish specific computer terminology to actually explain LTSP
| |
15:46 | :)
| |
15:46 | <ogra_cmpc> you did pretty weel with the kids in seville
| |
15:46 | *well
| |
15:47 | <vagrantc> yeah, i probably speak like a really adult 5 year old
| |
15:47 | <ogra_cmpc> heh
| |
15:47 | if i have to go on with the guadalinex visits, i guess i'll take a spanish coures as well
| |
15:48 | *course
| |
15:48 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: i've heard good things about the free MIT courses online
| |
15:48 | <warren> vagrantc, for language?
| |
15:48 | <vagrantc> warren: yeah
| |
15:48 | i thought so, anyways...
| |
15:49 | <ogra_cmpc> ah, well, it would actually be a good thing to have some local adult programme ... a regular appointment that forces me to leave the hose will help my belly grow smaller again
| |
15:49 | <vagrantc> heh
| |
15:50 | i've got to get back to aikido
| |
15:50 | <warren> hm...
| |
15:50 | martial arts would be good...
| |
15:50 | <vagrantc> all this traveling makes it hard to pull off
| |
15:50 | <ogra_cmpc> i should finally reassemble my car
| |
15:50 | <warren> ogra_cmpc, apt-get install car (and it grabs all the deps?)
| |
15:51 | <ogra_cmpc> warren, nah that would not be what i bought it for ... it was actuallt planned to rip it apart completely, and do some restauration work to get away from the apt-get ;)
| |
15:52 | but now its sitting in ieces in my garage and i didnt have time to touch it since a year
| |
15:52 | Guaraldo has left #ltsp | |
15:54 | <vagrantc> hmmm...
| |
15:55 | i'm thinking of releasing ltspfs with cdpinger from udev to experimental
| |
15:55 | <ogra_cmpc> why experimental ? ltspfs should go through independently, no ?
| |
15:55 | ah, no, ldm dep
| |
15:56 | <johnny> beep!
| |
15:56 | <vagrantc> yeah, i plan to split it into ltspfsd and ltspfsd-core
| |
15:56 | <johnny> hola #ltsp
| |
15:56 | <vagrantc> with cdpinger in the udev rules, i think it justifies that
| |
15:56 | <ogra_cmpc> err, wait
| |
15:56 | <vagrantc> johnny: buenas tardes
| |
15:56 | <ogra_cmpc> ldm is only a recommends and not versioned
| |
15:56 | that should be fine
| |
15:57 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: yeah, the recommends wasn't a big argument for me. more convincing is splitting the udev rules out.
| |
15:57 | <ogra_cmpc> no, i meant wrt experimental
| |
15:58 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: well, i'm thinking of uploading ldm to experimental just so that the current unstable version can progress to testing
| |
15:58 | u22 has joined #ltsp | |
15:59 | <vagrantc> and ltspfs to experimental just in case NEW takes too long
| |
15:59 | <ogra_cmpc> right, but getting ltspfs into sid sounds sane to me, the udev change for cdpinger should happen anyway
| |
15:59 | <vagrantc> both kind of stupid reasons, overall.
| |
15:59 | u22 has quit IRC | |
15:59 | <vagrantc> and while we're doing cdpinger from udev, may as well start ltspfsd from it's own init script, anyways.
| |
15:59 | actually ....
| |
15:59 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah, it could suddenly stabilize andrelease tomorrow :P
| |
16:00 | <vagrantc> maybe we start ltspfsd from the udev rules
| |
16:00 | <ogra_cmpc> hmm
| |
16:00 | <vagrantc> i.e. if a device is inserted, start ltspfsd if not already started
| |
16:00 | <ogra_cmpc> tircky for delayed devices that are there already
| |
16:00 | <vagrantc> just put it in add_fstab_entry
| |
16:01 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah, thats good
| |
16:01 | add_fstab_entry is used by all devices
| |
16:01 | <vagrantc> we'd have to figure out how to handle the mcookie stuff ... but probably could do that from add_fstab_entry if not already done as well.
| |
16:02 | <ogra_cmpc> how do we do it with delayed mounter atm ?
| |
16:02 | * ogra_cmpc lost track a bit | |
16:02 | <vagrantc> it's started in ltsp-client-core's init script
| |
16:02 | <ogra_cmpc> the mcookie handling i mean :)
| |
16:02 | <vagrantc> which is not really the right place anymore.
| |
16:03 | ogra_cmpc: i think it's generated in the init script, and properties are set in the ldm rc.d hooks
| |
16:04 | <ogra_cmpc> well, actually the mcookie should be generated fro a screen script hook
| |
16:05 | if we dont have X we dont need mcookies ;/)
| |
16:06 | <vagrantc> hmmm...
| |
16:07 | muh2000_ has joined #ltsp | |
16:07 | <vagrantc> maybe technically true, although it might be hard to get it perfect.
| |
16:08 | u22 has joined #ltsp | |
16:09 | u22 has quit IRC | |
16:11 | <ogra_cmpc> vagrantc, /usr/lib/ltsp/screen_session seems to be perfect
| |
16:11 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: i want to get everything ltspfs related in ltspfs itselff
| |
16:12 | <ogra_cmpc> i dont think mcookie needs to be ltspfs only
| |
16:12 | <warren> vagrantc, I want to add a BOOTCONFIG option so I can avoid doing that part of update-kernels
| |
16:12 | <ogra_cmpc> and i think scott used it in the localapps implementation
| |
16:12 | <warren> vagrantc, well, I need some option
| |
16:12 | vagrantc, how would you prefer I handle this?
| |
16:13 | <vagrantc> ogra_cmpc: ah, that would make sense.
| |
16:13 | warren: first preference, keep default behavior ... other than that, and with the assumption that it won't be evil changes ... not too picky.
| |
16:14 | <ogra_cmpc> if [ "$VENDOR" = "Ubuntu" ]; then
| |
16:14 | BOOTPROMPT_OPTS="quiet splash"
| |
16:14 | georgy_28 has quit IRC | |
16:14 | <ogra_cmpc> warren, just add your vendor line :)
| |
16:14 | <vagrantc> warren: what parts are you talking about?
| |
16:14 | ogra_cmpc: i think this is something different ...
| |
16:15 | <ogra_cmpc> oh, i think i know what he means ... to ltsp-update-kernels, mangling the pxe config
| |
16:15 | <warren> shoot, update-kernels relies on lsb_relesae
| |
16:15 | georgy_28 has joined #ltsp | |
16:15 | <warren> I got rid of lsb_release everywhere else...
| |
16:15 | <ogra_cmpc> uh, wyh ?
| |
16:15 | <vagrantc> got rid of == make it possible to not require it
| |
16:15 | <warren> ogra_cmpc, yeah, I don't want this to touch any boot loader config
| |
16:15 | if [ -z "$CHROOT_NAME" ]; then
| |
16:15 | # FIXME: replace with a common function
| |
16:15 | CHROOT_NAME="$(dpkg --print-installation-architecture)"
| |
16:16 | more evil
| |
16:16 | <vagrantc> speaking of common functions ...
| |
16:16 | <ogra_cmpc> thats why it says FIXME ;)
| |
16:16 | <vagrantc> i'm thinking we can write common functions that use the same names, but there are distro-specific implementations ...
| |
16:17 | <ogra_cmpc> yeah
| |
16:17 | <warren> in my case my functions might often be "return 0"
| |
16:17 | <vagrantc> is_arch_valid, default_arch, etc.
| |
16:19 | slidesinger has quit IRC | |
16:20 | <dberkholz> i just packaged lsb_release
| |
16:20 | muh2000 has quit IRC | |
16:20 | <dberkholz> didn't really see any point in working around it
| |
16:21 | <vagrantc> that could possibly move some code back into common
| |
16:21 | ogra_cmpc: currently, the cookie is named /var/run/ltspfs_token ... so i'm guessing to generalize it would probably need renaming it
| |
16:21 | <ogra_cmpc> i'm pretty sure we defined it as essential requirement in the inital list of ltsp5 implementation reqs we made in detroit
| |
16:22 | vagrantc, right
| |
16:22 | <warren> relying on lsb_release for hard coded names in scripts/plugin directories doesn't quite work for me
| |
16:22 | because my distros have too many different Vendor names
| |
16:22 | I intend on shipping ltsp-server and ltsp-client RPMS that work only on the distro they were built on
| |
16:23 | * ogra_cmpc wonders where the wiki frontpage went | |
16:23 | <ogra_cmpc> there is no mention of ltsp5 anywhere anymore
| |
16:25 | zero results searching for muecow
| |
16:26 | <johnny> dberkholz, dont' we already have lsb_release?
| |
16:27 | you said just?
| |
16:27 | in portage it's called lsb-release for some reason
| |
16:28 | <vagrantc> as in, went ahead and did it
| |
16:28 | not as in recently
| |
16:29 | <ogra_cmpc> weird, looks like a lot ltsp5 wikicontent is gone
| |
16:30 | <vagrantc> part of the ltsp 4.x conspiracy
| |
16:30 | <dberkholz> johnny: for whatever reason, package name is different from command name (- vs _)
| |
16:30 | <vagrantc> does ubuntu allow _ in package names?
| |
16:31 | er, gentoo
| |
16:31 | you know, that other distro
| |
16:31 | <dberkholz> vagrantc: technically yes, but there's probably about 5 packages that do it
| |
16:31 | <ogra_cmpc> LTSP is already integrated into Ubuntu and Debian, and Fedora is coming soon (FC7 - Spring 2007) as well as Gentoo.
| |
16:31 | warren, what are you working on ? its in FC7 already :)
| |
16:32 | <warren> ogra_cmpc, what is?
| |
16:32 | <ogra_cmpc> thats on the wiki ...
| |
16:32 | <warren> oh
| |
16:32 | <vagrantc> debian doesn't, and ubuntu inherrited that
| |
16:33 | <warren> I can't do any more work. I'm going to the gym.
| |
16:33 | <dberkholz> vagrantc: same way that we generally don't use any uppercase chars in package names. people know what to expect and how to search
| |

| |
16:55 | <ogra_cmpc> no
| |
16:56 | dont you have a ltsp subdir in /var/lib/tfpboot/ ?
| |
16:57 | <robfantini> yes but it is empty
| |
16:58 | <ogra_cmpc> which doc did you follow to get ltsp set up ?
| |
16:58 | !debian
| |
16:58 | <ltspbot`> ogra_cmpc: "debian" is is a GNU/Linux based operating system that makes an excellent LTSP server. You can find it at http://www.debian.org. for information about LTSP on debian see http://wiki.debian.org/LTSP
| |
16:59 | <robfantini> I did follow that and the examples at /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server

16:59 | I thuink the example dhcp file are dated

Jurors have not been told of the confession, as the judge has ruled it would be prejudicial."

20:46 | <warren> chupacabra, it is best not to spread the news about Reiser, he is an embarassment. Some people only hear of Linux because of the trial.
| |
20:46 | <johnny> i guess reiser4 is even more dead
| |
20:46 | ricers still use it tho
| |
20:47 | chupacabra, what is your first name?
| |
20:48 | <warren> I thought some technology from reiser4's research is going into a newer filesystem
| |
20:48 | btrfs or something
| |
20:48 | <johnny> so it'll be good for something
| |
20:49 | petre has joined #ltsp | |

| |
20:49 | <warren> reiserfs and reiser4 had a lot of interesting things
| |
20:49 | <petre> evening all
| |
20:49 | <warren> but neither were really production safe
| |
20:49 | <johnny> it's great for the portage tree tho..
| |
20:49 | reiser3 that is
| |
20:49 | <warren> the fsck and recovery tools are either non-existent or very bad
| |
20:50 | <johnny> lots of small files
| |
20:50 | and easily recoverable by rsync
| |
20:50 | <warren> johnny, better supported filesystems support that too
| |
20:50 | SuSE pushed hard with reiser3 as default, but they later backed away from it
| |
20:51 | just more expensive to support
| |
20:51 | the early performance benefits of reiser were later matched by even ext3
| |
20:51 | (depending on how you set it up)
| |
20:52 | <petre> warren, what's the url for the k12linux-dev wiki?
| |
20:52 | <warren> petre, https://fedorahosted.org/k12linux/
| |
20:52 | <petre> finally got fc8 installed on my laptop and ready to jump back in
| |
20:52 | <warren> I'm working on LiveUSB K12Linux before fixing more bugs
| |
20:52 | so it is easier to test it out (and thus easier to fix those bugs)
| |
20:53 | <petre> are you booting virtual machines with that, for testing?
| |
20:53 | or how do you test it?
| |
20:53 | <warren> petre, entire point of live images is to boot it on anything
| |
20:53 | petre, whatever machine I have
| |
20:54 | <petre> I saw your message about having a live DVD; sounds like a good idea
| |
20:54 | J45p3r has joined #ltsp | |
20:54 | <warren> petre, live dvd is one way, but I like USB better =)
| |
20:54 | <petre> why?
| |
20:54 | faster?
| |
20:55 | <warren> much faster
| |
20:55 | petre, and if you have a 2GB USB stick, you can use optional persistence
| |
20:55 | <petre> I like DVDs because they're cheap to give out
| |
20:55 | the local MicroCenter has 16GB USB sticks for $60 now.
| |
20:55 | <warren> petre, any changes you make during the live usage get written to the USB stick, so if you reboot all your changes are there. both rpm installs/upgrades and stuff in /home
| |
20:56 | <petre> smaller sizes are proportional in cost
| |
20:56 | <warren> petre, oh, but you gotta watch out for USB sticks... slow hurts a lot
| |
20:56 | some brands are VERY VERY FAST and LiveUSB is much faster than booting a normal system
| |
20:56 | on a hard drive
| |
20:56 | <petre> faster than hard drive?
| |
20:56 | <warren> petre, Sandisk (one of the slowest) however... extremely slow, crawls.
| |
20:57 | petre, if you buy the right one.
| |
20:57 | <petre> what brands do you suggest?
| |
20:58 | <warren> petre, difficult to know for sure, because some brands were previously good, but later sold the same model # with cheaper flash =(
| |
20:58 | slow
| |
20:59 | <petre> I suspect the bulk ones I mentioned are slow, since they're cheap, focus on capacity
| |
20:59 | <warren> sometimes you want capacity
| |
20:59 | but LiveUSB is not one of those times
| |
21:00 | <petre> how long does it take to create the image? Is it an ISO image you create and then put on the stick?
| |
21:00 | <warren> petre, I recently bought a Corsair 8GB from Amazon, advertised 16MB/sec write speeds. I was a victim. It was only 4MB/sec.
| |
21:00 | still faster than Sandisk so it is OK...
| |
21:01 | petre, very time consuming to create image... most of it is downloading lots of RPMS.
| |
21:01 | and F9 has a tool livecd-iso-to-disk which will install the ISO to the USB stick and setup the boot loader.
| |
21:02 | petre, livecd creation can also be dangerous due to the selinux chroot issue
| |
21:03 | <chupacabra> johnny: mike
| |
21:03 | <warren> petre, installing selinux into a chroot actually replaces the host kernel's policies. This can be very bad in some cases.
| |
21:03 | <chupacabra> warren: hmm good call
| |
21:04 | <petre> how important is selinux in a live CD/DVD/USB situation? Could it be left out/off?
| |
21:04 | sbalneav has joined #ltsp | |
21:05 | <warren> petre, could yes, but if you're making an official image for other people you might as well make it properly.
| |
21:05 | petre, you can install a real system onto hard drive from Live
| |
21:05 | <petre> I suppose if one is using live media for security reasons, having selinux off defeats half the purpose
| |
21:05 | <warren> petre, soon we might even have encrypted LiveUSB =)
| |
21:06 | petre, go to an internet cafe, boot a machine with your LiveUSB, do work, save everything to /home and shutdown.
| |
21:06 | petre, if your key is lost, your data is encrypted
| |
21:06 | <petre> that would be worthwhile, particularly in more hostile situations
| |
21:10 | warren, you mentioned you didn't think a live image could be fit onto a CD, what with the chroot; is that because the chroot requires nearly another entire file system layout?
| |
21:10 | <warren> not an entire
| |
21:10 | maybe another 25%
| |
21:11 | petre, in any case we can't fit openoffice
| |
21:12 | <petre> I suppose that's necessary for demoing to muggles (non-ltsp folks)
| |
21:12 | <warren> heh
| |
21:12 | <petre> although abiword's a good second hitter, much smaller and quicker, but not a whole suite
| |
21:13 | u22 has joined #ltsp | |
21:13 | <petre> I think koffice is significantly smaller, and version 4 is looking promising
| |
21:13 | spectra has quit IRC | |
21:14 | <warren> very promising that multiple suites use ODF
| |
21:14 | u22 has quit IRC | |
21:15 | <petre> yes, although too bad about OOXML and its rigged ISO approval
| |
21:15 | although I largely consider MS irrelevant because they don't really do much interesting stuff
| |
21:24 | <warren> ogra_cmpc, wow, gvfs seems to work automatically in F9
| |
21:24 | ogra_cmpc, no setuid binary, no fuse group, and fuse just works
| |
21:25 | * warren was a huge critic of gnome-vfs because it was so bad, and now GNOME seems to have done the right thing. | |

22:23 | <hari_> hi all... I'm installing ati radeon driver into chroot in ubuntu gutsy for ltsp environment. i have update and upgrade chroot repository
| |
22:23 | MacGyver_ is now known as MacIver | |
22:24 | <hari_> when i do dpkg -i some driver *.deb installer it said that /proc in chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 is failed cause /proc contains no files or directory..
| |
22:25 | do i just copy it from the ubuntu file system into chroot /proc?

22:39 | <hari_> anyone know how to install graphic card into chroot for ltsp environment? rgds
| |
22:40 | <johnny> before going into the chroot, you could do mount -t proc none /path/to/chroot/proc

23:06 | <hari_> hi johny: do i have to do the same for another directory that is not exist which is needed for install kernel into chroot?
| |
23:07 | for example /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/build not found in chroot but exist in ubuntu file system.. regds
| |
23:10 | what type in mount command do i have to use to make mount that directory above. because when i used mount -t build none /path/to/chroot i get message unknown filesystem type 'build'
| |
23:10 | johny : your first guideline works fine for mounting proc directory
| |
23:16 | <johnny> yes, the -t is for filesystem type
| |
23:16 | build isn't a filesystem
| |
23:16 | proc is
| |
23:17 | hari_, i know somebody who knows more about ubuntu's restricted module workings
| |
23:17 | and what it needs can help
| |
23:17 | you found nothing via a search engine?
| |
23:18 | <hari_> thanks, i don't find yet from goole installing graphic card driver in chroot.. there some error when doing in chroot compare to install it in normal ubuntu filesystem
| |
23:19 | i keep workingon it, thanks
| |
23:19 | will ask ogra_mpcp when he is online
| |
23:19 | <johnny> i'm just glad i didn't have to use the proprietary driver for mine
| |
23:20 | <hari_> i'm trying to install the same graphic card for client and server
| |
23:20 | in ltsp environment
| |
23:20 | <johnny> my server is also a desktop sorta
| |
23:20 | but otherwise i wouldn't care what card is in it
| |
23:21 | <hari_> i think it needs for playing game
| |
23:21 | <johnny> you play games on your ltsp server?
| |
23:21 | <hari_> client can not play as good as server when the graphic card only use client's onboard
| |
23:21 | yes..
