Ryan52, that's normal..

Ryan52: passed the wrong file to cowbuilder ... passed the .changes instead of the .dsc ...
00:12
took me way too long to figure that out
00:13vvinet has quit IRC
00:13* Ryan52 doesn't have to worry about these things...he uses scripts to do everything :P
00:13
<Ryan52>
that and bash history :P
00:15
<johnny>
Ryan52, you used the service pack creator for packagekit yet? this makes me happy.. get a nice list that i can use to reinstall all my packages later
00:15
<vagrantc>
well, i use history too ... but every once in a while a neuron mis-fires or something
00:16
i've been regularly building packages for several years now ... never made that mistake before, that i can recall...

howdy. Where is the LDM default session defined? Default and xterm failsave seem to be local to ldm, while the others come from the server. The reason I'm asking is because using 'Default' does not start a session at all and just goes back to the login screen. I'd like to correct that. TIA.

daduke, it calls "Xsession default" on the server, however your server definaes the default session
06:43
<daduke1>
ogra: hi and thanks. strange thing is, if I log in locally, I get a KDE session, but not via LTSP
06:44
ogra: and neither .Xsession nor .xinitrc are executed
06:44
<ogra>
what distro ?
06:44
<daduke1>
OpenSuSE
06:44
<ogra>
and did you try .xsession
06:44
(no capital X)
06:44
<daduke1>
ogra: yes I did
06:45
<ogra>
weird, but i have no clue at how suse diverges from upstream
06:45
fedora, debian and ubuntu largely use the upstream scripts with only small modifications
06:45
<daduke1>
ogra: so I noticed, yes :)
06:47
ogra: additional complication is that I'm connecting from a Debian CF LTSP boot image to this OpenSuSE. Everything is working fine w/ the exception of the Default session.
06:48
<ogra>
oh, that might explain the glitch ...
06:48
try setting LDM_XSESSION or so ...
06:48
or LDM_SESSION, i forgot the exact name, look at the ldm source
06:49
<daduke1>
ogra: oh, that's some hint, thanks
06:50
ogra: LDM_REMOTECMD? no
06:59
ogra: you're the man! thanks a lot.

I got the screen correctly setup and calibrated, but the client freezes after 10 secs when touch is enabled

also, no mouse and keyboard when touch = y

what kind of client?

what version of elographics driver is it?

ii xserver-xorg-input-elographics 1:1.2.1-1build1

tried apt-get update, no updates available

is this hardy or intrepid?

I found a post of yours online suggesting that a line needs to be deleted in configurex.sh, always core or something, that line was not present
09:33
<Gadi>
right - that upstream I can control ;)
09:33
but, there were also bugs in the elographics driver
09:33
<Phille>
I did also, I tried 2 patches, the first posted, and also xf86-input-elographics-1.2.2.patch
09:33
<Gadi>
and it doesn't look like they necessarily got fixed
09:35
<Phille>
indeed, was worth a try asking you :)

-Anyone knows how to boot a Macbook (intel) on a LTSP? (it's not supported by etherboot right now)
13:47
-How to install the netboot sequence on an hard drive? (from a laptop with a pcimcia card not supported by etherboot)
13:48
<stgraber>
alkisg: italc's translation (other than italc-launcher) are stored in italc's binary (yeah it sucks)
13:48
alkisg: I fixed all the bugs you reported for italc-launcher, I'm uploading a new package to my ppa now
13:48
<alkisg>
All of them?!!!
13:48
(the translations, I mean)
13:49
And I guess there isn't a gettext tool for qt... yup it sucks big time.
13:49
<stgraber>
yeah, all of them
13:50
<johnny>
WTF!
13:50
yes therei s a gettext tool for qt
13:50
qtlinguist sounds like it?
13:50
that's what i have in my menu on my gentoo box anyways.. never used it
13:51
<alkisg>
johnny: to be used by scripts, like "gettext -d ldm 'Username'"
13:51
or _("Username")
13:51
<johnny>
i know what gettext is
13:53
<stgraber>
alkisg: new package is being uploaded to edubuntu-italc-devel's ppa
13:54

Anyone knows how to install the capacity to boot on the ltsp from an existing system (on the local drive; the pcimcia ethernet card isn't taken in charge by the bios...).
14:03
<sepski>
mart_n, move the kernel and initrd to the harddrive. and boot them with the correct kernel args by $bootloader
14:03
make sure the pcmcia card is supported by your initrd
14:04
or just run a minimal system with a xserver that you connect to the ltsp server.
14:04CAN-o-SPAM_ has joined #ltsp
14:06
<mart_n>
sepski, you mean that I install the base system, (a debian for example), boot-it normaly and the connect to the LTSP? sound interesting and simple! How do I do this connection?
14:06
do you have a link or a clue?
14:07
<sepski>
well you can cheat and use a distro spesifically made for just that like thinstation.org
14:08
<mart_n>
cooool! Thanks!

<sepski>
i also think kdm and gdm have meny options for connecting to other machins
14:09
or just google for xdmcp
14:10
<johnny>
sepski, then no local devices
14:10
so that's not really a valid option
14:10
or sound
14:10
mart_n, there's a way to get the chroot on a hard drive
14:10
<sepski>
'if you need that yes
14:10
<johnny>
pretty sure there are ubuntu docs
14:10
<sepski>
you can perhaps run ldm locally and connect to the ltsp server
14:10davidj2_ has joined #ltsp
14:10
<johnny>
the chroot is good enough with just a few aditions
14:10
<sepski>
to get ltspfs and sound etc
14:10
<johnny>
no need to generate anything else
14:10
the chroot will have it all already
14:11
mart_n, either look for the docs.. or try imagine the chroot to a disk
14:11
and mark the partition bootable
14:11
it might just work
14:11
altho you might need to install grub
14:11
<mart_n>
... I'll have to document myself a little bit (about ldm, chroot and xdmcp) but those are realy good hints
14:11
<johnny>
but as far as i know.. that's the only blocker
14:12
mart_n, what i just told you should work with little effort :)
14:15
<alkisg>
johnny: but wouldn't the initscripts need to be changed to use the local disk instead of nbd?
14:15
<cliebow>
mart_n:i have seen an url of someone claiming to do so..i have only doen g3 and g4
14:17
<mart_n>
well, if it's more simple to have an existing system with X and the basics, and then start a kind of distant session on the LTSP, I think that's the most straitforward way for me
14:18
<alkisg>
mart_n: but it's not LTSP, it's remote X
14:18
<mart_n>
I just don't know much about distant session (apart form PXE boot)
14:18
... but, I'll need the server ressources... not just the filesystem
14:18
hum..
14:18
<johnny>
mart_n, actually alkisg is right.. much simpler
14:19
mart_n, just install gpxe to the local disk if it has proper drivers for your nic
14:19
<mart_n>
it has
14:19
<johnny>
then do that :)

but when I boot the CD... nothing happen and the diods dont lighten
14:20
so it's just copying the files on a boot/ partition?

mart_n, for gpxe?

yep
14:20
<johnny>
there are docs..
14:20
i've never done it
14:20
<alkisg>
mart_n: you have grub installed?
14:21
Or e.g. a windows partition only?
14:21etyack has quit IRC
14:21
<mart_n>
well, I have various hard drives where I tested things for this old toughbook, one with a whole system, other for installing bootable pxe, ...
14:21
so one is with grub yes
14:22
<alkisg>
OK, then you only need a menu.lst entry with "kernel=gpxe.krn"
14:22
<cliebow>
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Client-management/2006/Dec/msg00033.html
14:23
<mart_n>
and where do I put the gpxe files?
14:23
<cliebow>
good grief..they ripped out the informative stuff
14:23
<alkisg>
mart_n: gpxe.krn is the only gpxe file you'll need
14:23
<mart_n>
and where do I put it?
14:24
<alkisg>
anywhere that grub can see it.
14:24
<mart_n>
ok
14:24
<alkisg>
Here is the entry from my menu.lst:
14:24
<mart_n>
I'll try that
14:24
<alkisg>
title Boot from network (gpxe - fails)
14:24

(never mind about that - fails part, gpxe doesn't support my laptop nic)

maybe we should make a policy on when we are allowed to publicly use it
15:06
like for translation its quite useful
15:06
<alkisg>
nubae2: does it support package searching?
15:06
<vagrantc>
i think the occasional joke and whatnot is fine... as long as the scroll keeps to a minimum.
15:06
<nubae2>
how do u mean?
15:07
<alkisg>
Like !info <package-name> in #edubuntu
15:07
<nubae2>
vagrantc: I know what u mean, if u take a look at todays log it looks like we're on #ubuntu or something

if u think its useful, Ill code it
15:08
<vagrantc>
it would be great to get a poll of current versions across distros ...
15:08
<nubae2>
how so u mean
15:08
<vagrantc>
you know, to maintain an atmosphere of keeping up with the joneses
15:09
<nubae2>
that it temporarily says distro x has so many users, distro y has so many?
15:10p4ch0 has quit IRC
15:10
<vagrantc>
no, something that checks for upstream ltsp, ldm, ltspfs versions in each distro: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/ltsp/ltsp_(.*)\.orig\.tar\.gz http://debian.osuosl.org/debian/pool/main/l/ltsp/ltsp_(.*)\.orig\.tar\.gz and http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/ltsp/ ([0-9].*)/
15:10
something like that
15:12
<stgraber>
vagrantc: like that watchfile parser we have somewhere in devscripts ?
15:12
<vagrantc>
yeah
15:12
that's where i pulled the above URLs from :)
15:12
<nubae2>
what I could do is grab info from launchpad of course
15:12
like most commits
15:12
<stgraber>
vagrantc: I believe we have something like that in Ubuntu to monitor the versions in Debian and upstream but not in other distros
15:12
<nubae2>
of the day
15:12
week
15:12
stuff like that
15:14
so we could say... X upstream commits today, 5 deb related, 10, buntu related, 11 unknown
15:14
like dat?
15:14
or just version numbers?
15:14
<vagrantc>
something like: http://dehs.alioth.debian.org/report.php?package=ldm but more brief.

oh nice
15:15
<johnny>
it'd be nice to not have to parse the commit message ..
15:15
<vagrantc>
actually, that doesn't represent it very well..
15:15
<nubae2>
think we can parse that quite easy
15:15
<johnny>
and rather have an arbitrary attribute
15:15
<vagrantc>
but that doesn't really display which distros have which versions...
15:15
<nubae2>
well first, a bug tracker would be nice right?
15:16japerry has joined #ltsp
15:16
<nubae2>
new bug reported X blah blah
15:16
comment added to bug 32343: this should go upstream, by strgraber
15:16
<vagrantc>
i don't want something that spams the channel... rather something that we can query when we're curious
15:16
<nubae2>
stuff like that seems useful
15:17
thre are not enough bug reports to spam the channel
15:17
if only there were
15:17
<vagrantc>
a lot of the bug reports on launchpad seem to have nothing to do with LTSP
15:18
<nubae2>
ok, so basically, status of source versions in distros of various trunks
15:18
but with a bot we can fine tune that
15:18
thats what I mean
15:18mikkel has quit IRC
15:18
<nubae2>
it would be JUST ltsp stuff
15:19
and commit statuses?
15:19
or just too many of them
15:19
what u always talk about is tagging
15:20
i think something to do with urgency of bugs and requests would be nice from user perspective
15:21
or list of maintainers and responsibles
15:21
for what
15:22davidj2_ has quit IRC
15:22
<nubae2>
and distro/release status
15:23mart_n has left #ltsp
15:23
<johnny>
that's not necessary for a bot..
15:23
the web page says it fine
15:24
<nubae2>
im still not really sure what gentoo is getting close means :p
15:24
but let say... I do @bugs ubuntu open
15:24
all private of course
15:24
<johnny>
is that really helpful to anybody tho?
15:25
<nubae2>
sure... someone comes on and says
15:25
need help with x, x doesnt work
15:26
and one thing for sure.... @lts variables xorg
15:27
<johnny>
searching bug summaries does not tend to be useful..
15:27
and can you really say @bugs distro ?
15:28
i didn't know the launchpad tracker would let you do that..
15:28
<nubae2>
the info is there
15:28
at least for debian and ubuntu, and I guess for fedora too somewhere
15:29
anyway, whatever... if u guys think of something, I'll put it in, in the mean time I'll shut up
15:30
<johnny>
oh.. you mean searching their trackers directly?
15:30davidj2 has joined #ltsp
15:30
<nubae2>
yes
15:30
<johnny>
not launchpad?
15:30
<nubae2>
anything
15:30
the bot can scour anything
15:30
hence ebay, google, etc
15:31
like what would be nice to know, without constantly checking launchpad would be release versions for various trunks
15:33
or.... @responsible strgraber
15:33
and it says what he is working on and is responsible for
15:33tier1__ has joined #ltsp

@branches vagrantc
15:35
just gotta think what would be really useful to us
15:37
<alkisg>
stgraber: Great job, it works fine! One minor thing, if you could check for "$HOME=/tmp/guest-home.*" (or use some other method) in ica-launcher and not launch ica in this case, to avoid the "ISD server already started" dialog in guest sessions.
15:37
<nubae2>
or how about bug reports straight from a /priv message
15:38
making them I mean
15:39
<alkisg>
stgraber: or better yet, check if the port is in use, and log a warning message instead of trying to start ica.
15:39
<stgraber>
alkisg: ok, will check if and how I can do that, ideally, it should just use another port
15:39

I'm completely new to this, so please let me know if there is a better place to start...I'm trying out K12Linux on a USB drive. I've gone through the setup guide to setup the server, but I cannot get the client to connect. The client has a FoxConn motherboard and I've changed the BIOS to boot to "Legacy LAN" first. It just skips it though and boots right into Vista. Am I missing something simple? Is there a guide to the Client setup
23:01
<nubae2>
u should be booting from the usb stick on the server first
23:01
u are doing that right?+
23:01
<erechm>
yes
23:01
<Ryan52>
hmm.
23:01
check the boot order in bios.
23:01
make sure netboot is at the top.
23:01
failing that, try a etherboot floppy or gpxe or sometihng.
23:02
<erechm>
It is "Legacy LAN", then "CD" then, "Hard Disk"
23:02
<nubae2>
maybe no pxe
23:02
<erechm>
what is gpxe?
23:02
<Ryan52>
try gpxe.
23:02
it's something that you download and put on a floppy.
23:02
<erechm>
where do I find it?
23:02
<nubae2>
or a cd
