| 03:35 | <ftherese> I'm only finding old stuff about playing audio CD's on ltsp... the newest is a bug that audio cd's do not play (bug 390865 on launchpad ltsp) have there been any developments that allow audio cd's inserted in the client to play on the client?
| |
| 03:36 | <alkisg_work> That should be possible with some audio player installed as a localapp...

| 04:26 | <isojussi> is good idea to updgrade to 9.10 ? any known bugs etc?
| |
| 04:27 | <Appiah> alot of known bugs
| |
| 04:28 | like there are on jaunty
| |
| 04:28 | and the version before that
| |
| 04:28 | and before that...
| |
| 04:28 | my tip is to get a 9.10 live on a usb thumbdrive, try it and see if anything important such as networking does not work
| |
| 04:29 | oh wait this the LTSP channel :D

| 05:48 | <ftherese> I get this error from vlc

| |
| 05:48 | <ogra> add your user to the cdrom group
| |
| 06:00 | <ftherese> hmmm when I try to do this: sudo usermod -a cdrom infobureau
| |
| 06:00 | it tells me there has been no change
| |
| 06:00 | and if I look a groups infobureau
| |
| 06:00 | that user is only in the infobureau group

| 07:48 | <coordinador> Hi everybody
| |
| 07:48 | Why sometimes the mouse pointer and all the graphic interface sticks like each 1 sec?
| |
| 07:48 | shawnp0wers has joined #ltsp | |
| 07:50 | <coordinador> | |
| 07:51 | <Appiah> hmm
| |
| 07:52 | Thats a problem you can experince without LTSP
| |
| 07:52 | Dunno what caused this
| |
| 07:52 | mikkel has joined #ltsp | |
| 07:54 | <Appiah> see what mouse driver x uses coordinador
| |
| 07:54 | and force another one and see if it helps
| |
| 07:55 | <coordinador> Appiah, all the graphics, not just the mouse pointer
| |
| 07:55 | the videos, the windows, etc..

| 08:08 | <coordinador> why some of users have the 30% of cpu used with command mixer_applet2 ?
| |
| 08:11 | i was investigating and i found that is an old bug :"After a little more searching about, it appears that this is a known (Bug #150089 in Ubuntu)."
| |
| 08:11 | but this information is from 2007 :S
| |
| 08:12 | this information i found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=624939
| |
| 08:15 | <Appiah> well you can try it
| |
| 08:15 | I had this problem "back in the days" on several x installs
| |
| 08:16 | <coordinador> but, how did you fix it permanently?
| |
| 08:21 | <Appiah> ... by changing the mouse driver from auto
| |
| 08:21 | this was when xorg could not run without a xorg.conf...
| |
| 08:25 | Gadi has joined #ltsp | |
| 08:25 | <coordinador> humm
| |
| 08:26 | <Appiah> just try it on one client by adding its mac address to lts.conf
| |
| 08:26 | and forcing another input
| |
| 08:26 | <coordinador> which kind of client do you have?
| |
| 08:27 | <Appiah> Like I said
| |
| 08:27 | General Linux problem
| |
| 08:27 | <coordinador> oh i see
| |
| 08:27 | <Appiah> but have not seen it for a long time
| |
| 08:28 | <coordinador> but it happened to you, the freezing, only happened to the mouse pointer, or to all windows?
| |
| 08:30 | <Appiah> everything
| |
| 08:30 | <coordinador> oh
| |
| 08:42 | Appiah, did you have experienced that some of users have the 30% of cpu used with command mixer_applet2 ?
| |
| 08:44 | <Appiah> nope

| 08:56 | <sbalneav> coordinador: which version of Ubuntu are you currently running>
| |
| 08:56 | ?
| |
| 08:56 | <coordinador> 9.04
| |
| 08:56 | good morning
| |
| 08:56 | bieb has joined #ltsp | |
| 08:57 | <sbalneav> have you updated both your server and the chroot, by adding stgraber's ppa to the apt sources in both?
| |
| 09:00 | In case anyone's interested, I've updated my ppa with a new version of Sabayon for Karmic. This is for 2.29 sabayon, which supports apply-by-group
| |
| 09:00 | I'd be interested in any feedback, either here, or in #sabayon

| 09:19 | fasthans has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:20 | <fasthans> hello friends. is there a way to setup the dhcp server so that only some known clients will boot from the server?
| |
| 09:21 | <Appiah> reserv only DHCP server?
| |
| 09:21 | (dont know if thats the name)
| |
| 09:21 | but should be a way
| |
| 09:21 | <sbalneav> fasthans: yes
| |
| 09:21 | <fasthans> ok I will check if I find it.
| |
| 09:22 | <sbalneav> just specify certain mac addresses in the setup
| |
| 09:22 | <fasthans> so all other computers would ignore the dhcp server in this case?
| |
| 09:22 | coordinador has quit IRC | |
| 09:22 | <Appiah> they wont get an IP from that DHCP server
| |
| 09:22 | it will deny them
| |
| 09:24 | <fasthans> off of my head, in the dhcpd.conf file, at the top there is the definition which image to take and the dhcp range. do I have to specify this for each client then?
| |
| 09:25 | I mean, this is the default for every client right? and then I can specify the mac for certain clients.
| |
| 09:26 | garymc has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:26 | <garymc> anyone know if i should upgrade to Karmic Koala?
| |
| 09:26 | <fasthans> so the ones where I specify a mac have other settings, but what about those that are not listed specificly? will they not be handled as defaults?
| |
| 09:27 | <garymc> its telling me in my gui to upgrade to 9.10 karmic koala...
| |
| 09:29 | <fasthans> garymc: you can if you want to. it would upgrade your system to the newset version
| |
| 09:29 | garymc: are you running edubuntu
| |
| 09:31 | <garymc> i think so. I downloaded Ubuntu for LTSP
| |
| 09:31 | Ubuntu Alternate 9.04 disk
| |
| 09:31 | <fasthans> so you are running a 9.04 server and multiple clients?
| |
| 09:32 | <garymc> yes
| |
| 09:32 | is it worth doing?
| |
| 09:32 | will it mess with my current config etc?
| |
| 09:33 | <fasthans> I don't know. you should test it first.
| |
| 09:33 | <garymc> wel the system is currnetly getting used, so dont wanna mess it up
| |
| 09:33 | <fasthans> it is always difficult to say. depends on your system.
| |
| 09:33 | <garymc> ok
| |
| 09:33 | what are the advantages?
| |
| 09:33 | of 9.10 over 9.04
| |
| 09:33 | <fasthans> do you have a separate system?
| |
| 09:34 | advantages? go to edubuntu.org there is a list of new features.
| |
| 09:37 | here it is: http://www.edubuntu.org/9.10/releasenotes

| 09:40 | <sbalneav> garymc: As per ANY system upgrade of a production system, you should test on a different system first, and of course, when you have tested, and things are working to your satisfaction, a FULL, COMPLETE, AND TESTED backup of the production system is manditory, IMHO
| |
| 09:41 | <Gadi> yeah, because maybe the new one won't print from different paper trays
| |
| 09:41 | for example
| |
| 09:41 | ;)

| |
| 09:44 | Hmmm, having trouble with a dput
| |
| 09:44 | stgraber: You about, my friend?
| |
| 09:44 | <rjune> sbalneav, you're too paranoid. Just roll at it, nothing bad will ever happen, right?
| |
| 09:45 | <sbalneav> Oh, no no. There's NEVER any regressions
| |
| 09:45 | *cough* printing empathy cd-burning gdm *cough*
| |
| 09:45 | <rjune> and contributed fixes *NEVER* get forgotten
| |
| 09:45 | <sbalneav> Absolutely
| |
| 09:46 | <rjune> it's all happy and pretty in ubuntu land
| |
| 09:46 | the sky is always blue, and there are never any clouds.

| 09:46 | <stgraber> sbalneav: yep
| |
| 09:46 | <sbalneav> hey
| |
| 09:46 | OK, I'm trying to dump something in the edubuntu-dev package arvive
| |
| 09:47 | here's my dput stanza:
| |
| 09:47 | <ltsppbot> "sbalneav" pasted ".dput.cf stanza" (4 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/6
| |
| 09:48 | <sbalneav> I get a mail back saying:
| |
| 09:48 | Rejected:
| |
| 09:48 | Launchpad failed to process the upload path 'edubuntu-dev/edubuntu-testing/ubuntu':
| |
| 09:48 | Path format mismatch.
| |
| 09:48 | Any idears?
| |
| 09:50 | <stgraber> looking
| |
| 09:51 | try with a ~ before edubuntu-dev
| |
| 09:52 | <sbalneav> hmmm ok, I thought of that, but the edubuntu-dev ppa page doesn't list it. However, I'll give it the old college try. Uno momento
| |
| 09:58 | That appears to have worked!

| 10:10 | <coordinador> hi i hav a weird problem, my gdm produces a "out of range" message, but when i blindly write my login and pass, and enter to gnome the monitor works fine
| |
| 10:10 | gentgeen__ has quit IRC | |
| 10:10 | <coordinador> That is only in the server
| |
| 10:10 | in clients gdm works fine

| 10:12 | <sbalneav> coordinador: Looks like X isn't autodetecting your resolution correctly
| |
| 10:12 | you may need to tweak your xorg.conf file to your monitor.
| |
| 10:13 | <coordinador> humm
| |
| 10:13 | i added the display section with modes "1024x768" but i didnt worked for me
| |
| 10:13 | <sbalneav> So, you didn't do it right then :)
| |
| 10:13 | <Gadi> coordinador: add: X_HORZSYNC = 30-100 X_VERTREFRESH = 55-75
| |
| 10:14 | on separate lines

| 10:14 | <Gadi> to lts.conf
| |
| 10:14 | <sbalneav> Gadi: it's not the clients
| |
| 10:14 | it's his server's consle
| |
| 10:14 | <Gadi> ah
| |
| 10:14 | <coordinador> Gadi, how could it be in the server xorg.conf?
| |
| 10:14 | <Gadi> try: sudo pkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
| |
| 10:14 | er
| |
| 10:14 | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
| |
| 10:14 | <sbalneav> that's worth a try!
| |
| 10:14 | good one.
| |
| 10:14 | <coordinador> i already tried
| |
| 10:15 | shawnp0wers has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:15 | <Gadi> ah, then in the server's xorg.conf
| |
| 10:15 | in the Monitor section
| |
| 10:15 | add:
| |
| 10:15 | HorizSync 30-100
| |
| 10:15 | VertRefresh 55-75
| |
| 10:16 | <coordinador> Modes "1024x768" HorizSync 30-100 VertRefresh 55-75 like this?
| |
| 10:16 | or after Modes line?
| |
| 10:16 | <Gadi> well, Modes is in the device section
| |
| 10:16 | <johnny> weird that you would have to specify resolution like that
| |
| 10:17 | <Gadi> I mean Display subsection
| |
| 10:17 | of the Scren section
| |
| 10:17 | *Screen
| |
| 10:17 | the Sync info should go with the monitor, I believe
| |
| 10:17 | <coordinador> yes, pretty weird
| |
| 10:18 | ok, ill check that
| |
| 10:18 | <Gadi> you most likely do not need to specify the mode
| |
| 10:18 | only the sync frequencies
| |
| 10:18 | and make sure they match your monitor
| |
| 10:18 | <coordinador> well, i have Section screen, inside there is subsection display and inside there is Depth and Modes
| |
| 10:18 | <Gadi> right
| |
| 10:19 | <coordinador> in Monitor section i only have "identifier"
| |
| 10:19 | <Gadi> the problem is the mode it is choosing is out of sync range of yourmonitor
| |
| 10:19 | most likely your monitor lacks ddc support
| |
| 10:19 | <coordinador> the only mode that i have is Modes "1024x768_60" "800x600"
| |
| 10:19 | <Gadi> are you sure that is a valid Mode name?
| |
| 10:20 | * Gadi doubts it is | |
| 10:20 | <coordinador> i found it in the internets :P
| |
| 10:20 | <Gadi> look in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
| |
| 10:20 | <coordinador> Modes "1024x768" is it ok?
| |
| 10:20 | ok
| |
| 10:20 | <Gadi> it will give you all the details of the Modes for your driver that it accepts
| |
| 10:21 | yeah, 1024x768 is most likely a valid mode
| |
| 10:21 | staffencasa has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:21 | <Gadi> built into the driver
| |
| 10:22 | <coordinador> i am checking Xorg.0.log and there is a lot of things, the final line is: disable primary dac
| |
| 10:23 | oh god! it works!!
| |
| 10:24 | i will reboot server to check everything works fine from the beginning
| |
| 10:24 | thank you very much
| |
| 10:24 | good bye

| 11:17 | <ctkr> On my Ubuntu LTSP network, I have one HP t5135 thin client that will boot up to the login screen but refuses to login with any user. Ideas?
| |
| 11:18 | <ogra> check ~/.xsession-errors of that user
| |
| 11:22 | <ctkr> Last line is: Unable to open X display localhost:17.0
| |
| 11:23 | <ogra> thats a standard ubuntu installation ?
| |
| 11:23 | <ctkr> yes
| |
| 11:23 | <ogra> or did you tweak anything like ssh settings
| |
| 11:23 | <ctkr> no
| |
| 11:24 | all the other clients have no problem logging in
| |
| 11:24 | <ogra> installed from the alternate CD ?
| |
| 11:24 | <ctkr> Desktop
| |
| 11:24 | <ogra> with a manual ltsp-build-client run ?
| |
| 11:24 | <ctkr> yes
| |
| 11:25 | <ogra> well, "Unable to open X display localhost:17.0" indicates that the ssh X proxy doesnt work for whatever realson
| |
| 11:25 | <ctkr> did ltsp-update-image and ltsp-update-sshkeys several times
| |
| 11:25 | <ogra> can you pastebin your ~/.xsession-errors ?
| |
| 11:25 | !pastebot
| |
| 11:25 | <ctkr> ok

| |
| 11:29 | <ogra> ctkr, that use can log in from other clients ?
| |
| 11:29 | *user
| |
| 11:30 | <ctkr> yes
| |
| 11:34 | <ogra> well, i guess thats another issue with compiz probing a graphics card that cant handle it
| |
| 11:38 | <ctkr> would killing compiz help?
| |
| 11:39 | <ogra> no, uninstalling would
| |
| 11:40 | i think Gadi worked out a way to make it not do the tests
| |
| 11:41 | that would prevent you from uninstalling ... but fro a quick confirmation uninstalling is the quickest way
| |
| 11:41 | *for
| |
| 11:41 | <ctkr> ok
| |
| 11:41 | do I need ldm? because it wants to remove that with compiz
| |
| 11:42 | <ogra> the ldm package ?
| |
| 11:42 | you have a package called "ldm" installed on your server ?

| |
| 11:43 | squarepeg has quit IRC | |
| 11:43 | <ctkr> default install
| |
| 11:44 | <ogra> well, there should be no package "ldm" on the server ... only in the chroot
| |
| 11:44 | <ctkr> ok
| |
| 11:44 | <ogra> adn you should uninstall compiz from the normal desktop install (i.e. the server)
| |

| |
| 11:46 | arx has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:48 | <arx> Is DISABLE_ACCESS_CONTROL no longer a vaild lts.conf variable? I'm trying to run remote X apps from our main server and keep running into "Can't open display" errors.
| |
| 11:49 | <ctkr> OK that did it
| |
| 11:49 | thanks ogra!
| |
| 11:50 | <Gadi> arx: no - you should run "xhost +" yourself before launching the remote apps
| |
| 11:50 | <ogra> wait for Gadi to show up, he can show you a way without removing the package
| |
| 11:50 | <Gadi> tho, this is a huge security hole
| |
| 11:51 | * Gadi waves | |
| 11:51 | <ogra> ah, speaking of the devil :)
| |
| 11:51 | there he waves already :)
| |
| 11:51 | * Gadi shifts his kippah to cover the horns | |
| 11:51 | <Gadi> ;)
| |
| 11:51 | <ogra> haha
| |
| 11:53 | <Gadi> ctkr: I have a modified compiz script that disables compiz on remote connections (unless you force it in lts.conf)
| |
| 11:53 | lemme know if you're interested
| |
| 11:54 | <arx> Gadi: I have added xhost + to the bottom of /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/ldm/rc.d/S01-setup-xauth (I couldnt' run xhost + on the client, it would say something like it had to be run locally?!). So, on the client, when I run just xhost it says "access control disabled...", so that works. Now, however, when I type 'rsh appserver DISPLAY=$DISPLAY xterm' it pauses for like a minute, then returns the error it couldn't open up the display.
| |
| 11:55 | <Gadi> arx: are you using LDM_DIRECTX?
| |
| 11:55 | <arx> I have LDM_DIRECTX=True in /var/lib/tftp/ltsp/i386/lts.conf, yes.
| |
| 11:56 | vagrantc has joined #ltsp | |
| 11:56 | ctkr has left #ltsp | |
| 11:56 | <Gadi> oh, duh! is there routing between the remote appserver and the client?
| |
| 11:56 | log into appserver and from appserver, try to ping the client IP
| |
| 11:56 | my guess is you can't
| |
| 11:57 | in order for what you want to work, you need to set up routing through the LTSP box
| |
| 11:57 | <arx> it pings... and I even put the ip in the host file
| |
| 11:57 | <Gadi> it would be much easier for you to: ssh -X appserver program
| |
| 11:57 | ah
| |
| 11:57 | hmm...
| |
| 11:58 | and if you get a shell on appserver
| |
| 11:58 | and then, set: DISPLAY=<the_right_thing> xterm
| |
| 11:58 | what happens?
| |
| 12:00 | <arx> same as above... but let me try it. (gimmie a sec) ;)
| |
| 12:01 | Gadi: ok, so I rsh appserver, then I typed DISPLAY=clientipaddress, then xterm... it's just sitting there looking at me :|
| |
| 12:01 | <Gadi> you need the display number
| |
| 12:02 | echo $DISPLAY on the LTSP server side
| |
| 12:02 | <arx> oh yeah... sorry... this is what I typed export DISPLAY=ipaddress:7
| |
| 12:02 | <ogra> are you sure ssh behaves indentical if its called as rsh ?
| |
| 12:02 | <arx> interestingly enough... I can't ping the client now... ??? wt???
| |
| 12:03 | <Gadi> on the appserver shell, try: nc -v -z -w 1 -n ipaddress 6007
| |
| 12:03 | aha!
| |
| 12:03 | * Gadi knew it! | |
| 12:03 | <Gadi> is appserver on the same subnet as the thin client?
| |
| 12:03 | squarepeg has quit IRC | |
| 12:03 | <arx> no
| |
| 12:03 | <Gadi> yeah, so you need to have:
| |
| 12:03 | squarepeg has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:04 | <Gadi> 1. the LTSP server set to route packets between interfaces
| |
| 12:04 | 2. a static route in the appserver directing traffic to the thin client subnet through the LTSP server
| |
| 12:04 | then, the plumbing will be complete
| |
| 12:05 | your app cannot talk to an Xserver it cannot reach
| |
| 12:05 | which is, again, why ssh -X appserver program would work magically
| |
| 12:06 | <ogra> minor detail :)
| |
| 12:06 | <arx> how do I do #1?
| |
| 12:06 | <Gadi> echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
| |
| 12:06 | and edit /etc/sysctl.conf
| |
| 12:06 | to make it permanent
| |
| 12:07 | <arx> ahh... had I set up local firefox, I would have already done that (at least I think that is one of the steps)...
| |
| 12:07 | <Gadi> well, be careful
| |
| 12:08 | those howtos usually have you set up NAT, as well
| |
| 12:08 | NAT is a firewall that will block the static route from appserver
| |
| 12:08 | <arx> IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| |
| 12:08 | WOOOHOOOO!
| |
| 12:08 | * Gadi hands arx "A Plumbers Guide to the Internet" ;) | |
| 12:08 | <arx> ;)
| |
| 12:09 | <Gadi> arx: its funny how you are systematically tearing down the security layers of your network
| |
| 12:09 | :)
| |
| 12:09 | <arx> It really thru me off when I could rsh to the server.... THANKS A MILLION!

| 14:08 | sbalneav: i brought a unit here next to me, i will have the error shortly
| |
| 14:11 | ok now just a waiting game, normally either happens right off the bat or after using it a few
| |
| 14:17 | <Ahmuck-Sr> sbalneav: u motu now?
| |
| 14:18 | dro: i suspect your getting squash because of clients disconnected improperly
| |
| 14:19 | <sbalneav> Ahmuck-Sr: Oh, heck no.

| |
| 14:19 | arx has joined #ltsp | |
| 14:20 | <dro> Ahmuck-Sr: that makes sense since they're using the rdesktop screen script, and they "disconnect" by powering off the unit
| |
| 14:20 | of course once they've logged off rdesktop/windows TS
| |
| 14:20 | <Ahmuck-Sr> sbalneav: how are you creating ppa?
| |
| 14:20 | i build quite a few of my own packages, however i use checkinstall to get debs from them
| |
| 14:24 | <arx> Hey again. This question is way off topic, so feel free to shun me, but I am going to ask anyway 'cause I can't seem to find an easy answer (and I know there is one). How do you remove the "minimize", "maximize" and "close" buttons from a terminal window in gnome (not a gnome terminal however... xterm started remotely.)
| |
| 14:27 | <mushroomblue> tell metacity to ignore it?
| |
| 14:27 | <Gadi> arx: *hust* for that window?
| |
| 14:27 | *just
| |
| 14:27 | I mean
| |
| 14:28 | yeah, it's a window manager hint
| |
| 14:29 | <Lns> sbalneav: much applause for the going for MOTU!! You are an Edubuntu hero =)
| |
| 14:30 | <arx> Gadi: ya, just for that window.... or windows running our remote app.
| |
| 14:33 | <squarepeg> motu!! motu!!
| |
| 14:34 | <Gadi> arx: see if a tool like devilspie will do that for you
| |
| 14:34 | arx: I dont think metacity itself would give you enough control on an individual window very easily
| |
| 14:34 | there's also gdevilspie
| |
| 14:34 | for a gui
| |
| 14:34 | <arx> ya, I've installed it and was messin around with devilspie.... sparse documentation though.

| 14:35 | scottmaccal has quit IRC | |

| |
| 15:47 | if you don't already know --force-architecture, you shouldn't use it
| |
| 15:48 | <Lns> johnny: well it would depend on what's contained in the .deb really... if it's all just shell scripts and/or images/non-binaries i wouldn't think it would much matter.
| |
| 16:03 | <Gadi> (if (is (application_name) "xterm") (begin (undecorate)))

| 20:57 | <EDAN> any idea how to fix login problems of thin-clients in ltsp 5 + Ubuntu Karmic?
| |
| 20:58 | gentgeen__ has joined #ltsp | |
| 20:58 | <EDAN> logging in locally has no problems, but thin-client logins causes "No response from server, restarting"....
| |
| 21:01 | artista-frustrad has joined #ltsp | |
| 21:02 | artista_frustrad has quit IRC | |
| 21:05 | <vagrantc> EDAN: probably a changed ip address. sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys ; sudo ltsp-update-image
| |
| 21:05 | EDAN: and restart your thin clients
| |
| 21:06 | <EDAN> i did that already, but it fixes it temporarily then for some time, the problem occurs again...
| |
| 21:06 | <vagrantc> unless your DHCP server is separate from your Ubuntu server ... then you might have other issues
| |
| 21:06 | EDAN: sounds like your ip address keeps changing, then.
| |
| 21:06 | set up a static ip address.
| |
| 21:06 | <EDAN> the dhcp is on the ltsp server itself...
| |
| 21:07 | setting it up for 100 clients is not so ideal in my case... any hint?
| |
| 21:07 | Ahmuck has quit IRC | |
| 21:07 | <vagrantc> it seems odd that your server would be changing it's ip address if you're running dhcp on the server.
| |
| 21:08 | does your LTSP server have two network cards?
| |
| 21:08 | one for the thin client network, one for internet access?
| |
| 21:08 | that's generally the easiest way to configure it
| |
| 21:08 | <EDAN> yes... I only use one network card for ltsp server and dhcp clients
