| 10:25 | <alkisg> newbie question: If I install an ltsp-server with the Ubuntu alternate CD, and then remove dhcp-server, will I have any trouble? (meaning, is it possible that it gets automatically reinstalled later because of package dependencies?)
| |
| 10:32 | kc8pxy has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:33 | <kc8pxy> how outdated is this?? http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ltsp.xml
| |
| 10:34 | would that work??
| |
| 10:38 | <stgraber> alkisg: it won't
| |
| 10:38 | <alkisg> stgraber, ty! :)
| |
| 10:44 | ajohnson has quit IRC | |
| 10:44 | <alkisg> stgraber, I have enabled NIC bonding on a server, and everything works fine, but one single PC with IP=x.x.x.103 refuses to show in iTalc unless I change its IP to something else, e.g. x.x.x.107... Would you have any clue on how to debug this? I'm really stuck!
| |
| 10:44 | E.g. can I telnet to an iTalc port to see if it's working?
| |
| 10:46 | <stgraber> you can try telnet on 5800 and 5900
| |
| 10:46 | <alkisg> stgraber, I did telnet, and it connected, but is there any command I can give there, or is that enough?
| |
| 10:47 | telnet on 127.0.0.1:11103 and 10103
| |
| 10:48 | (it's not installed on the chroot, not enough RAM on the clients)
| |
| 10:48 | (intrepid, chroot updated 2-3 days ago)
| |
| 10:51 | <stgraber> weird, maybe that port is used by something else but in this case you should have got a warning at session open time
| |
| 10:53 | <alkisg> I've tried using netstat before the client logs on to see if there are any ports used, but if I did this correctly, they weren't...
| |
| 10:54 | (the 127.0.0.1:1x103 ones)
| |
| 10:56 | Bah... I'll just change all of them to x.x.x.11x instead of x.x.x.10x and be done with it. :)
| |
| 10:56 | Thanks again.
| |
| 10:58 | <kc8pxy> dberkholz: how close is ltsp5 on gentoo??
| |
| 10:59 | <johnny> hi
| |
| 11:00 | it works
| |
| 11:00 | <kc8pxy> it works on gentoo?
| |
| 11:00 | <johnny> there is a manual step to take
| |
| 11:00 | which involves modifying the initramfs
| |
| 11:00 | until genkernel includes the patches we need for adding extra network cards
| |
| 11:01 | atm, there are only 2 network cards in the last :(
| |
| 11:01 | list*
| |
| 11:01 | and i have been a gainst the idea of manually modifying genkernel's config
| |
| 11:06 | <kc8pxy> how do i emerge it? ltsp shows a hardmask.
| |
| 11:06 | <johnny> it is in layman
| |
| 11:07 | <kc8pxy> layman -a ltsp?
| |
| 11:07 | <johnny> yes
| |
| 11:07 | i'm also waiting on another quickstart release
| |
| 11:08 | <kc8pxy> johnny: after the genkernel patches, it should be (shortly) ready to include in the main portage?
| |
| 11:09 | makghosh has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:10 | <johnny> also need releases of quickstart and real ltsp release snapshots
| |
| 11:10 | instead of pulling from bzr
| |
| 11:10 | ie: a stable point
| |
| 11:10 | <kc8pxy> johnny: does the layman version depend bzr?
| |
| 11:11 | * Overlay "ltsp" does not exist!
| |
| 11:11 | sorry, I'm VERY rusty on layman
| |
| 11:12 | <johnny> do yuo have any other layman overlays?
| |
| 11:12 | <kc8pxy> not used it much since xeffects
| |
| 11:12 | tis is a new install
| |
| 11:12 | <johnny> then perhaps you have to sync
| |
| 11:12 | <kc8pxy> setting up a LTSP for the shop.
| |
| 11:12 | <johnny> layman -L
| |
| 11:13 | <kc8pxy> git tree?
| |
| 11:13 | <johnny> i am probably going to have to rework it a little bit.. due to updated packages
| |
| 11:13 | yes.. it is a git tree
| |
| 11:13 | <kc8pxy> kk
| |
| 11:14 | <johnny> i also have to do some keywording inside ltsp chroot.. i am hoping for some of those not to be necessary anymore
| |
| 11:15 | kc8pxy, if you want.. i'll go through a quick update to make sure things still work somewhat as expected, befre you try to run into more bugs
| |
| 11:16 | i was asking for more testers in the ltsp5 bug.. and nobody has really gotten to me
| |
| 11:16 | the only tester i've had was this guy furiousgeorge.. he helped me uncover some issues.. but that was a few months ago
| |
| 11:16 | <rjune_> and he was a bad little monkey
| |
| 11:16 | <johnny> other folks asked.. but not comittment
| |
| 11:16 | rjune, i disagree .. he was the only person who helped :)
| |
| 11:17 | <rjune_> You're ruining a perfectly good joke
| |
| 11:17 | <johnny> kc8pxy, i also have to force portage 2.2 rcs in the chroot, since the blocker resolution is a must for automated installs
| |
| 11:18 | gentoo could use a new stage3 release..
| |
| 11:19 | brendan__ has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:19 | <johnny> i just recently found out about a new wrapper to dd_rescue.. for any folks who are interested
| |
| 11:19 | supposably it will focus on recovering valid data and then go back for badblock recovery
| |
| 11:20 | instead of spending all the time upfront on bad block recovery

| 11:24 | petre has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:24 | <kc8pxy> johnny: need more testers??:)
| |
| 11:24 | <johnny> sure
| |
| 11:24 | <petre> stgraber: ping
| |
| 11:24 | <johnny> i'll do a quick sweep tho right now
| |
| 11:25 | <stgraber> petre: pong
| |
| 11:26 | <petre> I've got intrepid installed on a USB stick, and nxclient
| |
| 11:26 | How were you causing it to start automatically upon login?
| |
| 11:26 | nxclient, I mean
| |
| 11:27 | <stgraber> what did you install exactly ? the full OS or only the minimal OS + Xorg ?
| |
| 11:27 | <petre> I remembered you said you did a minimal, but I pul the whole system on just to see if I could make this pico usb boot and get nxclient running
| |
| 11:28 | put
| |
| 11:28 | so, next step is to do minimal
| |
| 11:28 | did you then add Xorg manually?
| |
| 11:31 | <stgraber> yeah
| |
| 11:31 | then I have an init script that starts X, do the dhcp request and start the NX binary client
| |
| 11:33 | <petre> so, is X stripped down or is it a full desktop?
| |
| 11:36 | <kc8pxy> johnny: ltsp added, instyall how?
| |
| 11:36 | <johnny> emerge ltsp-server
| |
| 11:36 | and then ltsp-build-client
| |
| 11:36 | same as any other distro
| |
| 11:36 | altho i'd sugges that you add these flags for testing
| |
| 11:37 | <kc8pxy> no ebuilds
| |
| 11:37 | <johnny> huh?
| |
| 11:37 | <kc8pxy> emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "ltsp-server".
| |
| 11:38 | <johnny> did you follow the rest of the layman instructions?
| |
| 11:38 | by adding the source /path/to/layman/root to the bottom of make.conf?
| |
| 11:38 | <kc8pxy> doh
| |
| 11:38 | been too long
| |
| 11:39 | brendan__ has quit IRC | |
| 11:40 | <johnny> kc8pxy, if you want it to be more likely to work out of the box with recent changes, you might want to hold off a minute, and i can take care of a few things
| |
| 11:40 | there have been some changes to ltsp-trunk that i need to adjust for perhaps
| |
| 11:42 | so. i actually discovered something useful via twitter/identica
| |
| 11:42 | http://jstn.cc/post/63070826
| |
| 11:42 | on how "Free Public Wifi" adhoc access point is shown on so many places
| |
| 11:45 | kc8pxy, right now i'm updating my system with ltsp on it
| |
| 11:47 | <kc8pxy> johnny: kk. quickstart has missing keywords, btw
| |
| 11:47 | <johnny> missing keywords? for what?
| |
| 11:47 | i only set it for keywords i hae personally installed and ran it on
| |
| 11:48 | which is gentoo dev practice
| |
| 11:49 | <kc8pxy> I'm on x86
| |
| 11:50 | <johnny> yes
| |
| 11:50 | you have to mark it ~x86
| |
| 11:50 | you will have to do that lots of packages
| |
| 11:51 | <kc8pxy> already hit fuse, ltspfs and ltsp-server :)
| |
| 11:51 | they said ~x86, quickstart said mission
| |
| 11:51 | ogra has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:51 | <kc8pxy> missing
| |
| 11:53 | <johnny> well what is in the ebuild?
| |
| 11:57 | <kc8pxy> sys-apps/quickstart/quickstart-0.6.ebuild (in the lstp layman, which ltsp-server is pulling) has a single keyword. ~amd64
| |
| 12:00 | add a keyword and re-digest it?
| |
| 12:01 | or wait for you to fix?
| |
| 12:03 | <johnny> add it.. if it works
| |
| 12:03 | i'll add it to upstream
| |
| 12:06 | petre has quit IRC | |
| 12:07 | <kc8pxy> gar
| |
| 12:08 | <johnny> ?
| |
| 12:08 | <kc8pxy> this box hit the ss e2fsprogs com_err blocking debacle
| |
| 12:08 | <johnny> on the main system?
| |
| 12:08 | yeah.. that's why i force portage 2.2..
| |
| 12:09 | for the chroot
| |
| 12:09 | since it runs into similiar problems
| |
| 12:10 | <kc8pxy> i should emerge portage 2.2 on the main sys?
| |
| 12:10 | <johnny> i'm not saying that.
| |
| 12:11 | i dont' know what the real bugs that are left are
| |
| 12:11 | i just know it is necessary for the chroot
| |
| 12:11 | lemme make sure i commited the portage fixe
| |
| 12:11 | <kc8pxy> is there a simple fixe to this blocking debacle?
| |
| 12:16 | <johnny> portage 2.2 is supposed to be the fix :)
| |
| 12:16 | atm. manually resolve it in your main system
| |
| 12:17 | by removing the blockers and remerging them
| |
| 12:17 | ok.. i have to commit my fixes
| |
| 12:17 | i didn't do that
| |
| 12:23 | done
| |
| 12:25 | mccann has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:26 | <kc8pxy> johnny: I'm glad we have dev's like you. I've been wtih gentoo since ~ 1.4rc3 (is the oldest rev i recall)
| |
| 12:26 | <johnny> i'm not a gentoo dev :)
| |
| 12:26 | <kc8pxy> rally??
| |
| 12:26 | wowo
| |
| 12:26 | <johnny> just a long time user
| |
| 12:26 | <kc8pxy> kk
| |
| 12:27 | <johnny> i started with official 1.4.. near the end
| |
| 12:27 | right before the change to year.releasenum
| |
| 12:27 | <kc8pxy> yeah
| |
| 12:27 | <johnny> been long time gnome tester
| |
| 12:27 | <kc8pxy> gentoo certainly has come a long way, right?? bye bye stage1 :)
| |
| 12:28 | <johnny> portage 2.2 is really amazing.. i hope it gets fixed soon
| |
| 12:28 | altho i am upset over the exherbo situation..
| |
| 12:28 | <kc8pxy> i've heard amazing things of it
| |
| 12:28 | exherbo?
| |
| 12:29 | johnny: question.
| |
| 12:29 | the primary dhcp of the lan I'm putting the ltsp server on is NOT the ltsp server. can i just configure it there?
| |
| 12:30 | <johnny> sure
| |
| 12:30 | that's why there is a dhcp use flag
| |
| 12:30 | we don't need the ltsp-server-standalone package like other distros
| |
| 12:30 | <kc8pxy> ufed is my friend :)
| |
| 12:30 | <johnny> aha.. there have been some changes i need to integrate
| |
| 12:31 | <kc8pxy> nice
| |
| 12:32 | hanthana has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:33 | <kc8pxy> johnny: if my client users are used to ubuntu, is there a simple way to make the client image look like that?
| |
| 12:33 | <johnny> look like what?
| |
| 12:33 | <kc8pxy> like ubuntu
| |
| 12:33 | <johnny> what do you mean?
| |
| 12:33 | <kc8pxy> gentoo server, ubuntu client image.
| |
| 12:33 | <johnny> what is specific about the client image to ubuntu?
| |
| 12:34 | only the bootsplash and login screen right?
| |
| 12:34 | <kc8pxy> look and feel, menu options.
| |
| 12:34 | i can gnome the image, i bet.
| |
| 12:34 | <johnny> atm, i use the ltsp default theme
| |
| 12:34 | gnome the image???
| |
| 12:34 | <kc8pxy> ok
| |
| 12:34 | <johnny> don't you mean gnome the server?
| |
| 12:34 | <kc8pxy> i'm probably making no sense.
| |
| 12:34 | <johnny> it's all about the server
| |
| 12:34 | <kc8pxy> ok
| |
| 12:35 | so it will look and act like i configure the server to be
| |
| 12:36 | right?
| |
| 12:38 | keithclark has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:38 | alkisg has quit IRC | |
| 12:39 | <johnny> yes
| |
| 12:39 | except the bootup
| |
| 12:39 | and login screen
| |
| 12:40 | <kc8pxy> i want the dazzle them with a gdm emergence login :)
| |
| 12:43 | i should use the gentoo.org howto or the ltsp howto?
| |
| 12:43 | mccann has quit IRC | |
| 12:51 | <johnny> neither
| |
| 12:51 | there is no gdm
| |
| 12:52 | thus the gdm emergence theme won't work
| |
| 12:52 | what you'd need to do.. is create an ldm theme
| |
| 12:53 | ok, i updated many of the recent changes
| |
| 12:54 | not quite all tho
| |
| 12:54 | i'm not sure if it will work out of the box atm
| |
| 13:00 | kc8pxy, i'm updating my host system right now
| |
| 13:00 | after that.. i'll update the chroot and test my changes
| |
| 13:01 | kc8pxy, perhaps we should reconvene tomorrow
| |
| 13:03 | it's gonna be a little while before my system is updated
| |
| 13:12 | ogra has quit IRC | |
| 13:13 | <kc8pxy> I'm here all day :)
| |
| 13:13 | ogra has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:14 | <johnny> i have about 8 fixes left to integrate in total
| |
| 13:14 | some are more necessary than others
| |
| 13:14 | i'd really like to globally allow SCREEN_01
| |
| 13:15 | instead of just hax0red for fedora
| |
| 13:15 | * johnny kicks the non existant warren | |
| 13:16 | <ogra> johnny: its my fault it isnt global, dont kick warren :p
| |
| 13:17 | Egyptian[Home] has quit IRC | |
| 13:17 | Egyptian[Home] has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:18 | <johnny> ogra, actually.. what i recall.. was that you were open to the idea
| |
| 13:18 | but warren had to shove ahead for his release
| |
| 13:18 | before discussion could happen
| |
| 13:19 | i'm not mad at warren or anything tho
| |
| 13:19 | <ogra> i asked for it to be tested on ubuntu before mzking it global
| |
| 13:19 | <johnny> yeah exactly
| |
| 13:19 | does it still need testing?
| |
| 13:19 | i'll do that at work
| |
| 13:19 | what do you want to see tested
| |
| 13:19 | and i guess we'll need vagrantc's ok
| |
| 13:19 | cyberorg, what do you think?
| |
| 13:19 | <ogra> since i'm nots sure upstart likes it
| |
| 13:20 | <johnny> but he uses upstart in fedora
| |
| 13:20 | so it must not HATE it..
| |
| 13:20 | <ogra> vagrant is fine with it he said
| |
| 13:20 | <johnny> ok
| |
| 13:20 | just need OK from cyberorg
| |
| 13:20 | and a test then
| |
| 13:20 | i will test on intrepid
| |
| 13:20 | <ogra> suse doesnt use upstart
| |
| 13:20 | <johnny> sure.. but who knows what it might break for them in any case
| |
| 13:20 | <ogra> should be ok for them
| |
| 13:21 | <johnny> i have no idea about their init system
| |
| 13:21 | don't want to make assumptions
| |
| 13:21 | * ogra neither, but guesses plain sysvinit | |
| 13:22 | <johnny> so.. yes.. i will test on intrepid. and also spawning ldm on it by default
| |
| 13:23 | <ogra> fine with me, if it works, feel free to just change
| |
| 13:26 | <johnny> i'm sure future ubuntu releases will also use kms stuff if available.. and that this feature would be necessary for the kind of experience you want to promote
| |
| 13:27 | keithclark has quit IRC | |
| 13:27 | <johnny> i'm actually pretty happy with the way fedora10 looks
| |
| 13:27 | with the default background/theme and the gdm theme looking so similiar
| |
| 13:28 | even thought i'm stuck with an old nvidia card on this box
| |
| 13:28 | and i dont' get the cool plymouth boot stuff :(
| |
| 13:30 | warren has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:33 | * ogra just sits in an exciting session about redesigning the bootprocess in ubuntu | |
| 13:34 | <ogra> heh, fedora implements ubuntus command-not-found in packagekit'?
| |
| 13:34 | * ogra grins | |
| 13:34 | <johnny> it'd be nice to see the cooperation between packagekit guys and ubuntu
| |
| 13:35 | altho i guess packagekit needs more maturity
| |
| 13:35 | <ogra> there is close cooperatin
| |
| 13:35 | <johnny> so.. where does ltsp local apps menu directory go?
| |
| 13:35 | <ogra> at least closer than with debian
| |
| 13:36 | <johnny> on the server?
| |
| 13:36 | * ogra has no idea, ask stgraber ... though i'd assume something like ~/.local | |
| 13:36 | <johnny> and genmenu goes on the client? maybe i'm confused
| |
| 13:37 | ogra, no.. it goes in /etc/
| |
| 13:37 | guess you haven't started your jaunty jaunt yet ?:)
| |
| 13:37 | <ogra> then its on the client
| |
| 13:37 | no, i need my stuff to work for work :)
| |
| 13:38 | running an ubuntu release before UDS is just insane
| |
| 13:39 | heh, they are redefining runlevel numbering

| |
| 16:38 | <stgraber> ogra, johnny: The .desktop and menu structure are on the thin client, then it's a ldm rc.d script that'll create the entries in ~/.config and ~/.local for the user and remove them on logout

| |
| 17:00 | that's really a problem of nbd and it's something I have some big problems with

| |
| 18:03 | sbalneav, are you here?
| |
| 18:07 | <vagrantc> johnny: just go ahead and ask a question :P
| |
| 18:07 | lest we play tag all day
| |
| 18:07 | <johnny> vagrantc, i heard you didn't care if i removed the restriction of SCREEN_01
| |
| 18:07 | is that true?
| |
| 18:08 | <vagrantc> johnny: pretty much.
| |
| 18:08 | <johnny> hwo about defaulting ldm to screen_01 .. or is that still too controversial? :)
| |
| 18:09 | i'm not sure even ogra would agree with that
| |
| 18:09 | he asked me to test whether it worked in ubuntu
| |
| 18:09 | <vagrantc> johnny: actually, i'd prefer to restrict the screens allowed by default...
| |
| 18:09 | <johnny> and i got a good boot
| |
| 18:09 | how come?
| |
| 18:09 | <vagrantc> because without manual mucking on debian, 1-6 are already taken.
| |
| 18:09 | so really, we should have a blacklist or whitelist mechanism somehow...
| |
| 18:10 | <johnny> and on ubuntu i'd imagine?
| |
| 18:10 | oh.. there's no /etc/inittab on ubuntu..
| |
| 18:10 | <vagrantc> i think they do some mucking.
| |
| 18:10 | yeah, it's upstart stuffs
| |
| 18:10 | <johnny> it seems like this is the way of the future
| |
| 18:10 | for kms stuff
| |
| 18:11 | i hope the debian folks realize that
| |
| 18:11 | even if they choose not to use upstart
| |
| 18:11 | <vagrantc> "kms" ?
| |
| 18:11 | <johnny> kernel mode setting
| |
| 18:12 | <vagrantc> it'll happen when it happens.
| |
| 18:12 | <johnny> it's what allows for the flicker free transistion between bootup and the display manager
| |
| 18:12 | and that is why i don't use debian ..
| |
| 18:12 | too many crusty unix geeks ..
| |
| 18:12 | altho i feel teh same about gentoo
| |
| 18:12 | <vagrantc> it happens when people interested in making it happen make it happen
| |
| 18:12 | that's actually more true to form
| |
| 18:12 | <johnny> yeah.. except changes like this.. brings the crusty geeks out
| |
| 18:12 | <vagrantc> and i'm not one of those people :)
| |
| 18:12 | <johnny> to fight the change
| |
| 18:13 | and then you have an uphill battle against the oldsters
| |
| 18:13 | i mean hell.. look at what the simple change of pidgin did
| |
| 18:13 | in regards to them automatically inreasing the size of the text boxes
| |
| 18:13 | and removing the configuration option
| |
| 18:14 | and that was jus a text box..
| |
| 18:14 | lol
| |
| 18:14 | * vagrantc doesn't even know what the heck pigdin is | |
| 18:14 | <johnny> vagrantc, i wish i could believe you that it was that simple in regards to 'when the people interesting in making it happen, make it happen"
| |
| 18:14 | pidgin.. gaim.
| |
| 18:14 | sounding like a crusty unix geek already vagrantc :)
| |
| 18:14 | hehe
| |
| 18:15 | it's ok.. i still love ya
| |
| 18:15 | <vagrantc> yeah, web2.0 annoys me. all those newfandangled chat programs i haven't a clue.
| |
| 18:15 | <johnny> newfangled?
| |
| 18:15 | 1999 isn't exactly new fangled in the computer world
| |
| 18:16 | which is when gaim was started..
| |
| 18:16 | <vagrantc> i don't really see what they've added that irc doesn't do for me just fine.
| |
| 18:16 | <johnny> presence of your buddies
| |
| 18:16 | irc has no presence outside of rooms
| |
| 18:16 | and hacking with /whois
| |
| 18:16 | <vagrantc> yeah, web2.0 crap.
| |
| 18:16 | <johnny> huh?
| |
| 18:16 | lol
| |
| 18:16 | web 1.0 was hardy even out then
| |
| 18:17 | <vagrantc> social networking oriented
| |
| 18:17 | <johnny> that's 1997 stuff
| |
| 18:17 | <vagrantc> same concept
| |
| 18:17 | <johnny> hell.. whenever aol started buddy lists
| |
| 18:17 | <vagrantc> i'm more interested in topics than individuals, basically.
| |
| 18:17 | <johnny> i like both
| |
| 18:17 | i like friends :)
| |
| 18:17 | who talk of interesting topcis
| |
| 18:18 | irc is still OK enough..
| |
| 18:18 | i use it for most devel stuff
| |
| 18:18 | but outside of that.. ti's all xmpp chat

| |
| 22:04 | <Ryan52> kc8pxy, I know, it's a little weird that the three of us are in both channels.
| |
| 22:04 | <kc8pxy> alex_21: i don't work with thin-clients that are specifically for that. all my thinclients are junk computers :)
| |
| 22:05 | lol
| |
| 22:05 | <Ryan52> alex_21: captitals make it *harder* for us to read it, not easier :)
| |
| 22:05 | alex_21: and capitals are interpreted as yelling on the internet, which isn't a very nice way to ask for help.
| |
| 22:06 | <kc8pxy> Ryan52: unless you want to be percieved as the guy who always DEMANDS TO SPEAK TO YOUR MANAGER.
| |
| 22:07 | * Ryan52 nods | |
| 22:10 | <kc8pxy> we're just now getting REAL server-grade stuff.
| |
| 22:11 | <Ryan52> server grade from 20 years ago, or...? :)
