| 12:00 | <dgroos> I'm trying to install a program "Listaller" into the chroot so I can install another program, SMART Notebook Software".
| |
| 12:02 | To install listaller I need to add a repository to the sources.list file. Is there any issue with simply copying the sources.list from the 64 bit system to the 32 bit chroot?
| |
| 12:05 | I'd make a backup of the chroot sources.list, but I wonder if things would get screwed up in my chroot after running a apt-get update and apt-get upgrade with this copied sources.list.
| |
| 12:07 | <pmatulis> dgroos: why copy?
| |
| 12:08 | <dgroos> I want to add another source to the sources.list in the chroot and that file is read only. I could change the permissions but...
| |
| 12:09 | I want to add the listaller source.
| |
| 12:09 | Not sure if I'm *supposed to* edit the chroot sources.list file.
| |
| 12:11 | <pmatulis> dgroos: sure, edit is fine
| |
| 12:11 | <dgroos> Or should I just create a new file in the sources.list.d directory?
| |
| 12:11 | OK so I'll just make it writeable, add it, then rechange permissions?
| |
| 12:12 | <pmatulis> dgroos: i didn't think you needed to change mode
| |
| 12:13 | dgroos: i have 644 over here
| |
| 12:14 | <dgroos> pmatulis: right ... why did it say 'read only' when I opened it with sudo just a few minutes ago and now it doesn't? And mine says 644 too (upon checking). OK. Thanks!
| |
| 12:14 | <pmatulis> dgroos: why do you need to install something in the chroot anyway?
| |
| 12:15 | <dgroos> I want to install SMART software so I can use it as a localapp.
| |
| 12:15 | <pmatulis> dgroos: ok
| |
| 12:18 | <dgroos> pmatulis: Just to check... it says to put 2 lines into the sources.list page (a deb line and a deb-src line) but I only see deb lines in the chroot sources.list file. As a matter of fact there are only 3 lines in the current chroot sources.list file.
| |
| 12:22 | <pmatulis> dgroos: you don't need the src line unless you need to compile something

| 12:23 | <dgroos> pmatulis: ok.
| |
| 12:24 | <pmatulis> dgroos: have you ever installed stuff in the chroot before?

| 12:25 | Da-Geek has quit IRC | |
| 12:26 | <dgroos> pmatulis: yes, but I do it so infrequently--just in bursts when I need it--that I forget details and have to relearn them each time, though my blog helps :)

| 12:53 | <dgroos> successfully installed, getting barrier when trying to use the listaller software in chroot. Upon typing in chroot: listallmgr-gtk
| |
| 12:54 | I get: (listallmgr-gtk:6061): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :2000.0
| |
| 12:55 | and brings me back to the root prompt...
| |
| 12:55 | Any idea?
| |
| 12:56 | I can always try vmlintu idea to install SMART software by changing this .package software installer into a .deb installer. but that's not trivial.
| |
| 12:57 | pmatulis: Any thought on the display warning?

| 13:24 | <dgroos> pmatulis: Thanks for your help. I'm going to try the make-deb-package solution and install it in the chroot.
| |
| 13:39 | <rjune> ogra, you about mate?

| 21:12 | <RoytheDog> just started working with ltsp on ubuntu 10.04 - got pxe boot working - splash screen loads on thin client - login and you get a cmd prompt.... the pxelinux.0 file loads vmlinz (not in front of machine now) ???
| |
| 21:13 | * vagrantc is a little confused about the order of events... | |
| 21:14 | <RoytheDog> yah I know I am sketchy as this is my first rodeo with ltsp...
| |
| 21:14 | basically I have a server that is terminal only and I am not sure I have a shell downloaded and a config file setup to tell what the thin client should load
| |
| 21:15 | we thought about building the ltsp client again but got a warning that a buch of dirs where going to get wiped out.
| |
| 21:15 | <vagrantc> RoytheDog: so the thin-client gets a graphical login screen, but then opens up a terminal with a command prompt?
| |
| 21:16 | <RoytheDog> yes
| |
| 21:16 | <vagrantc> you need to install a desktop environment or window manager on your server
| |
| 21:16 | and all the applications you want the thin-clients to have access to
| |
| 21:17 | <RoytheDog> ok in ubuntu would that be as simple as.... sudo apt-get install DESKTOPNAME ???
| |
| 21:17 | <vagrantc> i think there's an ubuntu-desktop package, that'll pull in the default graphical environment on ubuntu (i'm a debian user/developer, so not totally familiar with ubuntu)
| |
| 21:23 | <RoytheDog> I think I have to tell a conf file somehting about the desktop enviroment to use
| |
| 21:23 | <vagrantc> nah
| |
| 21:24 | RoytheDog: just install a desktop environment
| |
| 21:24 | it'll use the default
| |
| 21:24 | right now, it falls back to xterm or x-terminal-emulator
| |
| 21:24 | <RoytheDog> that is cool I hope it works beat my brains on it for a while
| |
| 21:25 | gets splash screen mouse works
| |
| 21:26 | hey could it be that I just have one user (named test) that I used to install with - could it be he may only be set for a terminal screen or am I reading way too much into this?
| |
| 21:26 | <vagrantc> doubtful
| |
| 21:27 | just install a desktop environment
| |
| 21:27 | <RoytheDog> many thanks - where in the world are you?
| |
| 21:29 | <vagrantc> cascadia :)
| |
| 21:30 | some would call it oregon
| |
| 21:30 | <RoytheDog> ;) I am in fla.
