02:18 | <alkisg> In two Lucid chroots, I'm getting $SERVER="10.160.31.10 10.160.31.10" so ldm segfaults. I'm debugging it, but if anyone has seen it before, hints welcome... :)
| |
02:20 | <Appiah> oooo lucid
| |
02:21 | <vagrantc> LDM_SERVER should accept two values
| |
02:22 | <alkisg> vagrantc: configure_resolver() from ltsp-init-common creates this etc/hosts:
| |
02:22 | 10.160.31.10
| |
02:22 | 10.160.31.10
| |
02:22 | -f server
| |
02:22 | And ldm segfaults when I enter the username/password
| |
02:22 | <vagrantc> ugh
| |
02:22 | <alkisg> (it segfaults even if I fix the /etc/hosts)

02:28 | <alkisg> Hmm ltsp_config is to blame...
| |
02:29 | <vagrantc> how's that?
| |
02:31 | <alkisg> vagrantc: pgrep -f -l /dev/nbd0 returns 2 matches:
| |
02:32 | 230 nbd-client 10.160.31.10 2000 /dev/nbd0

02:32 | 232 nbd-client 10.160.31.10 2000 /dev/nbd0
| |
02:32 | <vagrantc> eeyk.
| |
02:32 | <alkisg> So a quick hack would be to do "head -n 1" there, but I'll look deeper
| |
02:33 | <vagrantc> we really need to be able to talk to nbd-client directly or something...

04:19 | <Roel_> if I have booted until LDM... what is the default WM it uses?
| |
04:19 | XDM?
| |
04:20 | after login I get the watch-cursor and some dull stuff
| |
04:20 | <alkisg> Try with XSERVER=vesa in lts.conf or by turning off compiz for that user
| |
04:21 | Problem: while trying to boot an atom-based netbook as a thin client, and around the time I see "Starting LTSP client", I'm hearing an extremely loud sound (beeeeeep) and after 10 seconds the netbook turns off itself (I think I can also smell something so I'm not going to try it for more than 1 sec again :)).
| |
04:21 | It boots fine with the same Ubuntu versions (Karmic/Lucid) as a workstation, though... any ideas?
| |
04:22 | <Roel_> hmmm... but what is it supposed to startup after login at LDM?
| |
04:23 | <alkisg> Roel_: the xsession... if you use gnome, the WM will be either compiz or metacity, afaik...
| |
04:23 | <Roel_> I didn't really specify anything.. so maybe I should install fluxbox or something
| |
04:24 | <alkisg> Well if it's a compiz problem, you can just turn it off
| |
04:24 | <Roel_> I have the feeling the gentoo-install just install xdm...
| |
04:24 | <alkisg> Is that gentoo?
| |
04:24 | Do you have a DE installed on the server?
| |
04:25 | <Roel_> I didn't install anything
| |
04:25 | so I guess not
| |
04:26 | let me check that out
| |
04:26 | <alkisg> Well, the session runs on the server, so you need a desktop environment there
| |
04:30 | <Roel_> there was nothing installed, so let me 'quickly' emerge some stuff

06:06 | <Roel_> yes

06:06 | <Appiah> see anything in xorg.#.log ?

06:09 | hey is X_CONFIGURE=True still needed in lts.conf?
| |
06:09 | if you set X_MODE and such
| |
06:10 | <Roel_> the log is not even speaking of a touchscreen
| |
06:11 | <Appiah> does the touchscreen work on a "normal" ubuntu install? (assuming you run ltsp on ubuntu)
| |
06:12 | <Roel_> yeah, I had it working before on ltsp 4.2
| |
06:13 | And I've tried on the client to access the touchscreen using touchcal, and it did work

| |
09:04 | <garymc> Ahh bieb i think it was you who helped me out with the launcher stuff a while back?
| |
09:06 | <sbalneav> garymc: You see my comment to you?
| |
09:06 | Your shell script has a bug.
| |
09:07 | <garymc> im really stuck at the moment and the instructions i created back then dont seem to be working. I know im doing something wrong but not sure what. http://pastebin.ca/1746965
| |
09:07 | <alincoln> sbalneav: thanks!
| |
09:07 | <garymc> sbalneav yes i changed what you said but it didnt fix it
| |
09:08 | <bieb> garymc: yep I helped some
| |
09:08 | <sbalneav> Can you pastebin what's in that shell script as of now?
| |
09:08 | <etyack> sbalneav: happy New Year!
| |
09:09 | <sbalneav> etyack: And to you and yours!
| |
09:09 | <garymc> sbalneav : yes it is the link above
| |
09:11 | <sbalneav> garymc: do the following and pastebin the results.
| |
09:11 | ls -l /etc/xdg/autostart
| |
09:11 | ls -l /usr/local/bin/CopyToDesktop
| |
09:11 | cat /usr/local/bin/CopyToDesktop
| |
09:12 | ls -al /usr/local/share/launchers
| |
09:13 | <garymc> ok
| |
09:13 | <alkisg> garymc: are you sure that launcher is *all* you want? E.g. if you want more start, you might be better off using sabayon that scripts.
| |
09:13 | *stuff, not start
| |
09:13 | *than, not that. Damn keyboard :)
| |
09:13 | <garymc> not sure, im still a newb. It worked great last time but now
| |
09:14 | <alkisg> Are you going to need custom menus, or wallpapers, or custom settings, or locked settings etc?
| |
09:15 | http://live.gnome.org/Sabayon
| |
09:16 | <garymc> sbalneav : http://pastebin.ca/1746981 a link to the results of those commands
| |
09:17 | <alkisg> And here's an introduction to sabayon with screenshots: http://www.gnome.org/~seth/blog/sabayon
| |
09:17 | <garymc> alkisg : I may be needing sabayon in the future, im gonna take a look at the link you provided
| |
09:17 | <alkisg> Because sabayon can also help you with the launchers
| |
09:17 | jbrett has joined #ltsp | |
09:17 | <alkisg> And also allow you to specify different launchers per group
| |
09:18 | (afaik, right sbalneav?)
| |
09:19 | <sbalneav> alkisg: just FYI, in case you're going to poke around, pam_sshauth uses libssh v0.4, do if you want to play with it in karmic, you'll either have to backport the lucid libssh packages, or use lucid to test
| |
09:19 | <garymc> is it just a program i install onto my current release of ubuntu
| |
09:20 | <sbalneav> alkisg: I've been meaning to write an updated tutorial.
| |
09:20 | I should get on that.
| |
09:20 | garymc: you didn't do the chmod +x /usr/local/bin/CopyToDesktop
| |
09:21 | <garymc> did i not?
| |
09:21 | <sbalneav> ugh
| |
09:21 | you did something elese too
| |
09:21 | ok
| |
09:21 | <garymc> :(
| |
09:21 | <sbalneav> yikes, what a mess

09:23 | what now?

09:24 | scottmaccal has joined #ltsp | |
09:24 | <sbalneav> garymc: This is why people like me ask you to paste results of commands. Because what you DID was clearly NOT what your instructions said to do. :)
| |
09:25 | ls -l /usr/local/bin
| |
09:25 | <garymc> I did follow those instrcutions to the word..... i think
| |
09:25 | <sbalneav> pastebin the results

09:36 | <ogra> or better http://paste.ubuntu.com/355057/
| |
09:36 | <sbalneav> garymc: http://ltsp.pastebin.com/m601935f
| |
09:36 | <garymc> sbalneav : Thank you so much :)
| |
09:37 | <ogra> alkisg, well, if someone wants to try it we could put it as enable_copy_to_desktop.sh somewhere and people would just download it, make it executable and run it under sudo ;)
| |
09:37 | easier than wlaking them through that whole process each and every time
| |
09:37 | <alkisg> ogra: yeah wildcards don't work, so: Exec=sh -c "/bin/cp /tmp/*.desktop ~/Desktop"
| |
09:37 | erm, with the proper path instead of /tmp
| |
09:38 | <ogra> well, feel free to make something out of it :)
| |
09:38 | so garymc doesnt need to ask again
| |
09:38 | <alkisg> Nah... sabayon is the way to go for this kind of stuff :)

11:37 | lp:~sbalneav/ltsp/libpam-sshauth
| |
11:37 | I should update the spec.
| |
11:37 | <vagrantc> sbalneav: it's a branch of ltsp-trunk ?
| |
11:40 | * vagrantc answered own question | |
11:41 | The_Code has quit IRC | |
11:44 | <vagrantc> sbalneav: my only fear tying it to libssh is if libssh changes compatibility very often...
| |
11:46 | <sbalneav> well, there's only two ssh libs
| |
11:46 | libssh
| |
11:47 | and libssh2 (modified bsd auth)
| |
11:47 | libssh2 doesn't properly handle the conversation the way we need it to in order to handle expiry's
| |
11:48 | kde depends on libssh, so I'm not too too worried.
| |
11:48 | <vagrantc> what about libssh-4 ?
| |
11:48 | or is that just version 4 of libssh ?
| |
11:51 | appears to be the latter.
| |
11:52 | <sbalneav> right.
| |
11:53 | One thing that would really help is to fix the packaging for libssh so that it creates a proper pkg-check file.
| |
11:54 | vagrantc: is that something that upstream should include? Or is it done at the "packaging" level by Debian/Ubuntu? If so, I could create the file, would you be able to get it into debian?
| |
11:54 | <vagrantc> sbalneav: this is where my skills are a little weak
| |
11:54 | <sbalneav> that way, we could have the configure.ac check for a version of the lib.
| |
11:54 | <vagrantc> Ryan52: you know about pkg-check stuff?
| |
11:54 | MRH2 has joined #ltsp | |
11:55 | <sbalneav> I know how to USE pkg-check stuff. I don't know if it's an "upstream" construct or a packaging construct,
| |
11:55 | <MRH2> hi anyone recall if hplip is in 4.2?
| |
11:55 | <sbalneav> MRH2: no it's not.
| |
11:55 | <vagrantc> sbalneav: and neither do i
| |
11:56 | <ogra> sbalneav, do you see a pkg-check file if you build the package ?
| |
11:56 | <MRH2> thanks
| |
11:56 | <ogra> sbalneav, creation is an upstream thing, installing it is a packaging thing
| |
11:56 | <sbalneav> ogra: no, I don't think they have one.
| |
11:57 | <ogra> right, then its an upstream miss
| |
11:57 | <sbalneav> Great, I'll contact them, give them the magic goo to create it.
| |
11:57 | They seem pretty responsive to patches, etc.
| |
11:57 | it won't help us "right now", but down the road will make things easier.

14:42 | <haasd> I've got an install in Ubuntu hardy where the clients mouse freezes up. The keyboard still responds just fine. Unplugging and replugging the mouse doesn't do anything and the client has to be rebooted. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot further?
| |
14:42 | <Gadi> USB mouse?
| |
14:42 | <alkisg> haasd: some times `sudo ltsp-update-kernels` helps, give it a try...
| |
14:42 | Ah, Gadi's here, ignore me :)
| |
14:43 | <Gadi> I was going to say the same
| |
14:43 | <haasd> yes- a USB mouse
| |
14:43 | <Gadi> :)
| |
14:43 | I mean
| |
14:43 | ignore me
| |
14:43 | hehe
| |
14:43 | haasd: what type of thin client hardware?
| |
14:44 | * Gadi once had an issue like that with a via-based mobo with trident video card | |
14:44 | <haasd> hp compaq t5000
| |
14:45 | <Gadi> haasd: does a PS/2 mouse or keyboard continue to work?
| |
14:45 | <haasd> I'm not sure. I'll send a couple out and have them try them. Thanks for the idea
| |
14:46 | <Gadi> np - it was an issue I could never quite resolve
| |
14:46 | but tracked it down to the whole USB hub craashing
| |
14:46 | so, it was definitely kernel related
| |
14:46 | <haasd> its just odd that its the mouse only- the keyboard still continues to work no problem
| |
14:46 | <Gadi> but, PS/2 continued to work
| |
14:46 | <alkisg> (btw, I have a problem too:) while trying to boot an atom-based netbook as a thin client, and around the time I see "Starting LTSP client", I'm hearing a continuous, extremely loud sound (beeeeeep) and after 10 seconds the netbook turns off itself (I think I can also smell something so I'm not going to try it for more than 1 sec again :)). Help?
| |
14:46 | <Gadi> is the keyboard ps/2?

14:47 | Selveste1_ has joined #ltsp | |
14:47 | <johnny> alkisg, it's broke.. get a new one

14:47 | <Gadi> alkisg: lower the volume
| |
14:47 | audio volume
| |
14:47 | <johnny> the smell i mean
| |
14:47 | Gadi, lowering the volume won't fix the smell
| |
14:47 | <Gadi> johnny: not necessarily
| |
14:47 | the smell may not be permanent damage
| |
14:47 | <alkisg> It works fine with Karmic/Lucid installed locally, though :)
| |
14:47 | <Gadi> if you turned it off in time
| |
14:48 | haasd has left #ltsp | |
14:48 | <Gadi> alkisg: they have lower defaults
| |
14:48 | <johnny> sure.. but why would loud volume cause it to go crazy like that..
| |
14:48 | Barbosa has quit IRC | |
14:48 | <Gadi> audio chips usually have caps, solenoids, and lots of metal around
| |
14:48 | cheap devices that overdrive the current
| |
14:48 | can cause these devices to resonate
| |
14:49 | and the feedback gets amplified
| |
14:49 | <alkisg> Gadi, so should I try lowering the volume in lts.conf?
| |
14:49 | <Gadi> yeah
| |
14:49 | * alkisg tries.. | |
14:49 | <Gadi> try 50 precent
| |
14:49 | <johnny> that's too cheap for me to want to trust to do anything..
| |
14:49 | <Gadi> if it squeals, cut the power right away
| |
14:51 | <alkisg> !lts.conf
| |
14:51 | <ltspbot> alkisg: "lts.conf" :: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/lts.conf
| |
14:52 | <johnny> why are we promoting that one.. isn't there a link to lts.conf settings on the new docs site?
| |
14:52 | * alkisg has tried previously with sound=off, to no avail... | |
14:52 | <johnny> shouldn't !lts.conf link to that
| |
14:52 | not some ubuntu.com site
| |
14:52 | <alkisg> johnny: if you find it, be my guest :)
| |
14:52 | <johnny> ask sbalneav
| |
14:52 | <alkisg> Sorry for linking there, but I couldn't find it in the sf site
| |
14:53 | <Gadi> alkisg: adjust the VOLUME
| |
14:53 | <alkisg> Just that one? I was trying all of them :D OK
| |
14:53 | VOLUME=50
| |
14:54 | <Gadi> hehe
| |
14:54 | VOLUME should work for all, I believe
| |
14:54 | <johnny> why shouldn't SOUND=N ?
| |
14:54 | <Gadi> or maybe VOLUME and PCM_VOLUME
| |
14:54 | SOUND=N should work, too - I think
| |
14:54 | I have to look at the code
| |
14:55 | <alkisg> Even if the sound was loud though, I don't think there was supposed to be some sound playing at that ponit
| |
14:55 | ponit
| |
14:55 | point (gah)
| |
14:55 | It was before ldm started, at "starting ltsp client..."
| |
14:56 | <Gadi> Im not sure you need a sound playing
| |
14:56 | I think its with simply adjust the volume up
| |
14:56 | as it causes the chip to source more current
| |
14:56 | <vagrantc> alkisg: often times if it has a built-in mic, it picks up noise from the disk or something and gets into a feedback loop
| |
14:57 | <Gadi> that, too
| |
14:57 | <vagrantc> one of my test laptops has problems
| |
14:57 | <alkisg> vagrantc: *yes* you're probably right
| |
14:57 | The sound was exactly like that (I don't know the word in english)
| |
14:57 | <vagrantc> feedback? noise?
| |
14:57 | <alkisg> feedback, probably...
| |
14:58 | "microphonism" in Greek :-/
| |
14:58 | <vagrantc> alkisg: you greeks get all the ancient roots of western languages

15:03 | <alkisg> Success!!! Thanks guys, VOLUME=10 and MIC_VOLUME=10 did it.
| |
15:05 | OK, htop reports that the fat client ram usage at ldm = 51MB, let's see what's the difference with the thin chroot...
| |
15:11 | <dro> alkisg: another helpful one is: HEADPHONE_VOLUME=100
| |
15:12 | <alkisg> Thanks dro, I think the mic was the main problem
| |
15:12 | <dro> alkisg: cool
| |
15:12 | was it doing the loud squeal?
| |
15:12 | pmatulis has quit IRC | |
15:13 | <alkisg> It was so loud that it turned off by itself, and it even smelled a little like burned...
| |
15:13 | <dro> i have several laptops that work fine for days/weeks and then out of no where would squeal like a pig extremly loud
| |
15:13 | wow.....
| |
15:13 | yea sounds like it was sound interference
| |
15:17 | Remaille has quit IRC | |
15:19 | <alkisg> Htop reports ram usage for thin client at ldm = 44 Mb. Very little difference, maybe it's OK for 128 MB RAM clients but maybe 64 MB RAM clients will have problems with only one (fat) chroot...
| |
15:28 | GodFather has quit IRC | |
15:29 | <johnny> alkisg, you have yet to start anything with it obviously :)
| |
15:29 | like firefox..
| |
15:30 | <alkisg> Well, firefox works fine in my 64mb thin clients
| |
15:32 | Remaille has joined #ltsp | |
15:33 | <vagrantc> i've noticed marked improvements to firefox/iceweasel and openoffice compared to just a couple years ago.
| |
15:34 | at least as far as ram consumption
| |
15:35 | F-GT has quit IRC | |
15:36 | <johnny> it sitll won't start locally on one of my clients..
| |
15:36 | i thought it was the ram.. but pehraps not
| |
15:37 | F-GT has joined #ltsp | |
15:37 | <alkisg> With 6 tabs open in firefox, htop reports 2 more MB of ram usage
| |
15:37 | So not a big deal, when *not* ran locally...
| |
15:39 | * Gadi expects the tab is not much memory - its whats inside the tab that counts | |
15:41 | <alkisg> I used "regular" pages, e.g. 5-10 screens high with images etc. I don't have flash installed yet, but I don't think it'll make much of a difference...
| |
15:41 | The local memory is only used for X bitmap caching, right?
| |
15:41 | <johnny> i thought you were talking about local apps.. ..
| |
15:41 | <alkisg> (11:37:47 μμ) alkisg: So not a big deal, when *not* ran locally...
| |
15:42 | I'm comparing regular thin clients with the new fat client script
| |
15:43 | Because supposedly one fat client chroot would be enough for both thin & fat clients
| |
15:43 | And that seems to be true, with the exception of the 64mb ram clients...

18:14 | <dmarkey> It possibly might be a better fit starting a new project from scratch with that design
| |
18:15 | <sbalneav> Why would you start a new project?
| |
18:15 | why not *just use spice*?
| |
18:15 | That's my point.
| |
18:15 | They've developed a solution, probably a good one.
| |
18:15 | <dmarkey> well, its only a protocol, you'd have to build a management stack, broker, etc
| |
18:16 | <sbalneav> Far as I know, they have that already.
| |
18:16 | <dmarkey> if they have, its need released
| |
18:16 | not*
| |
18:16 | hersonls_ has joined #ltsp | |
18:16 | <sbalneav> but rather than a potential developer work on "integrating" it into LTSP, I'd rather see them work on the spice project itself.
| |
18:17 | that way, you've actually got a marketplace
| |
18:17 | You can choose ltsp
| |
18:17 | or spice
| |
18:17 | and if one ends up being "better" (for some value of better) then it can "win" (for some value of "win")
| |
18:18 | <dmarkey> its not about winning or losing
| |
18:18 | <sbalneav> Well, yeah
| |
18:18 | <dmarkey> they'll fulfill slightly different use cases
| |
18:18 | <sbalneav> Right. But we shouldn't try to fulfill all use cases.
| |
18:19 | I'd rather we do what we do, and if it's useful to someone, great.
| |
18:19 | <dmarkey> we as in LTSP
| |
18:19 | ?
| |
18:19 | <sbalneav> yeah
| |
18:20 | But like I say, I can't dictate what anyone else does.
| |
18:21 | I can only control what I do.
| |
18:21 | <dmarkey> would integrating some kind of a spice client into LTSP be unreasonable?
| |
18:22 | <sbalneav> I would say so, yes
| |
18:22 | spice is fundamentally different enough to move away from the core of what we try to do
| |
18:22 | deliver a Linux desktop using standardized X protocols
| |
18:22 | <dmarkey> why do you have rdesktop support
| |
18:22 | <sbalneav> I dont
| |
18:23 | and personally, I don't agree with it.
| |
18:23 | But seeing as how I don't have to maintain it, it doesn't bother me.
| |
18:23 | <stgraber> if one really needs a spice client, all he should do is write a new screen.d script for it, that's the easiest way to have it running, though it's a technology that we can't easily integrate in LDM and so requires more maintenance work
| |
18:24 | <sbalneav> I personally don't like the fact that the hard work I put in is being used to "cheat" microsoft out of buying CAL's
| |
18:24 | which, if rdesktop didn't exist, is what you'd have to do.
| |
18:24 | <stgraber> that's less the case with RDP as the freerdp guys are working on a clean library that I perfectly see as being used by LDM in the near future
| |
18:24 | <sbalneav> right
| |
18:24 | it would be a fundamental change.
| |
18:25 | But I speak only for myself.
| |
18:25 | <dmarkey> i dont see any problems with the rdesktop implementation in LTSP as it is
| |
18:25 | <stgraber> sbalneav: that's not exactly right, all my Windows customers (500-600 desktops I believe) running LTSP paid for their CALs, what they don't pay for is a Windows license for their computer
| |
18:25 | <sbalneav> Sorry, cal's isn't the right term
| |
18:25 | the bit that provides the remote access, i.e. the microsoft equiv to rdesktop
| |
18:26 | Microsoft sells that.
| |
18:26 | <stgraber> mstsc is "free" and the specifications for RDP are open
| |
18:26 | (ok, it wasn't the case when rdesktop was first developped, but it's now)
| |
18:26 | <sbalneav> It's not free if you're in a corporate environment.
| |
18:26 | it's still charged for, AFAIK
| |
18:27 | <dmarkey> only charge is CALS on the terminal server
| |
18:27 | <stgraber> what they charge you for is Windows embeded or similar, that's the minimal Windows you boot that then starts the RDP client
| |
18:27 | mstsc is included on all versions of Windows since Windows 2000 and is "free" (as in, included in Windows)
| |
18:27 | <sbalneav> right, which is what you'd have to use if ltsp+rdesktop didn't exist.
| |
18:28 | But like I say, since I don't have it as a use case, I don't worry about it.
| |
18:28 | <dmarkey> you're not breaking any rules by using rdesktop instead of mstsc
| |
18:28 | <sbalneav> Didn't say we were.
| |
18:28 | <stgraber> yep, and I have no problem with people using LTSP+rdesktop to replace a Windows embeded, it's legal and makes the migration path to Linux thin clients a lot easier
| |
18:29 | <sbalneav> I don't agree, but that's just me.
| |
18:29 | My point is: ltsp STARTED as a way to provide access to Linux desktops.
| |
18:29 | that's what attracted me to it.

18:30 | <sbalneav> the more "diluted" that gets, the less I like it.
| |
18:30 | <stgraber> Currently, one of the most frequent migration path we're using here is: Windows desktop => Windows desktop + Windows terminal server => LTSP + Windows terminal server (and free softwares on Windows) => LTSP + Linux (same free softwares)
| |
18:30 | that's one of the smoothest way we found to migrate > 500 users without failling ;)
| |
18:30 | <dmarkey> a 100 line rdesktop/screen.d script is hardly diluting the project
| |
18:31 | <sbalneav> We were talking about integrating spice
| |
18:31 | rdesktop's been done for quite some time.
| |
18:32 | I would argue that integrating spice would be a huge dilution.
| |
18:32 | <dmarkey> its just another 100 line screen.d script
| |
18:32 | <sbalneav> Oh?
| |
18:33 | Really?
| |
18:33 | Cite your sources.
| |
18:34 | <dmarkey> Potentially, 100 line.
| |
18:34 | :)
| |
18:34 | <sbalneav> Quite frankly, and don't take this the wrong way, but you haven't got a clue HOW many lines it would be.
| |
18:35 | Maybe this is something that needs to be voted on.
| |
18:35 | <dmarkey> well it would depend on the implementation of the management/brokering design, with probably wouldnt be in LTSP's scope
| |
18:36 | which*
| |
18:36 | And frankly, you dont either
| |
18:36 | <sbalneav> Quit waving your arms. Deal in facts.
| |
18:36 | No I don't
| |
18:36 | And what I'm saying is, I don't think it's in our scope, either.
| |
18:37 | Maybe this needs to be voted on.
| |
18:37 | <dmarkey> by whom
| |
18:37 | <sbalneav> I've always operated under the idea that LTSP's a good way to get traditional thin client X terminals on lower end hardware.
| |
18:37 | By the developers.
| |
18:38 | <johnny> there's always the possibility of a seperate package that includes such scripts that doesn't need voting on of any kind
| |
18:38 | <sbalneav> If we're going to be "everything to everybody", then we need to have that codified somehow.
| |
18:38 | <dmarkey> ha, what will the topic of the vote be?
| |
18:38 | <sbalneav> "What is LTSP supposed to be?"
| |
18:39 | Anywho, I've got to toddle off to my son's lesson.
| |
18:39 | I'll be back on later tonight.
| |
18:39 | cya all

23:01 | * sbalneav shrugs | |
23:01 | <sbalneav> I'm perfectly clear
| |
23:02 | I'm just stating my opinion.
| |
23:02 | Here's what I don't want
| |
23:02 | if spice is "the next big thing", I want people to adopt it on it's own merits.
| |
23:03 | I want spice to be spice
| |
23:03 | And ltsp to be ltsp
| |
23:03 | but I'm not the boss, and code talks
| |
23:03 | if someone integrates it and supports it within LTSP, I'm cool with that.
