hello, on a fresh ltsp squeeze KDE4 install, I have some users unable to login. There were able to yesterday. The xsession-error file indicate that the DISPLAY variable is not set
06:11
xrdb: Resource temporarily unavailable / xrdb: Can't open display 'localhost:13.0' / $DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server.
06:13
any idea? clients are Artec thincans and diskless PC

can you launch an xterm session?

any idea why users cant login after reboot of the server (fresh squeeze install)?
06:59
<evil_root>
when they try to log in... do they get like "no response from server" and then the ldm reloads? xavier_brochard
07:01
<xavier_brochard>
@evil_root: no. One user was able to login but the others not.
07:02
<evil_root>
can you try to ssh to the server as one of those users and see if it gives you any errors or warnings?
07:03
<xavier_brochard>
I will. I have to quit and go there. thanks.

Hello all. Just a quick question about options available for ltsp-build-client.conf in Ubuntu - I would like to be able to set chroot names in order to build different thin/fat client images for testing

07:12
<evil_root>
you can put what ever you want for the chroot name jtwood
07:13
<jtwood>
Yeah, can't seem to get it to stick...seems to default to the arch
07:13
in the config CHROOT=name?
07:13
<evil_root>
i think that should work, i always build from the comand like though so i can say for 100%
07:14
command line* though
07:14
<jtwood>
yeah, I am just playing around with option upon option...much easier to use the config file if I could figure the thing out
07:15
it seems that some options work and others don't...and unfortunately I haven't found much about it...other than some options work in it... :)
07:15
<evil_root>
lol
07:16
<jtwood>
Yeah...I know arch=, base= works...tried chroot= and root= with no luck...

Also, its not a huge deal, kind of annoying, but the LDM screen spans both monitors of my dual display - anyway to toss it on one or the other?

cliebow: present
07:33
<jtwood>
Hey, if you got a second - something else simple - I could use command line, but I like using config files
07:34
How do you set the chroot name in a Ubuntu config file for ltsp-build-client?
07:34
<cliebow>
Gadi:No worried...got it worked out
07:34cyberorg (~cyberorg@opensuse/member/Cyberorg) left irc: Remote host closed the connection
07:35
<Gadi>
--chroot set the name of the chroot
07:35
oh you want in the config file
07:36
<jtwood>
yeah...just wondered in the ltsp-build-client.conf how to set it...tried CHROOT=name CHROOT="name" ROOT=name, etc...always defaults to arch
07:36
Its no biggie...just trying to make life easier for the next guy that has to look at my notes and configs
07:37
or myself in a year when I can't remember what I did
07:37
Gadi: to be honest...sometimes I can't remember tomorrow what I did today! :D

Gotchya...you can set base directories and such so I just wondered...

if [ -n "$option_chroot_value" ]; then

CHROOT="$option_chroot_value"
07:40
else
07:40
CHROOT="$ARCH"

looks like if you don't set the option, it sets it to arch

07:41
<jtwood>
Yeah, I see that
07:44
I'll just set different base directories for now...it'll keep my sanity without haveing to constantly rename and move stuff

I think I solved my problem (users unable to login but one): I have a 229GB xsessionerror file in my personal session (created in 1 day only!) and device is full .
08:00
I should setup a logrotate on this!
08:05
<alkisg>
What filled it?
08:06
<xavier_brochard>
I don't know yet I'm currently moving it on a spare disk - it takes time (file is 269GB)
08:07
<NeonLicht>
tail it

looks like it is nepomuk fault! while I disabled it it. It write a bunch of "/usr/bin/akonadi_nepomuk_contact_feeder] QMutex::lock(): cv wait failure: Argument invalide" lines

knipwim, ltsp-remoteapps mount a shared directory between the thin client and the applications server
13:36
look if the the file passed to ltsp-open is accessible on the server, if not it copies it to the shared directory then launch xdg-open on the applications serveur.

So, about fat clients...maybe somewhere along the way I got confused...but I should be able to build a fat client image, network boot it, and applications will utilize the client memory and ram, correct?

The good news is that everything is working except the utilize client ram and cpu part... :)

<alkisg>
That's big enough to be a fat image
14:16
And the contents of the cat command?
14:16
$ cat /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ltsp_fat_chroot
14:16
(amd64, etc etc)
14:16
<jtwood>
FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS='ubuntu-desktop'
14:18
Sorry, forgot how to use putty...spoiled by my KVMs... ;)
14:18
<alkisg>
(11:11:33 PM) jtwood: I listed the contents of the ltsp_fat_chroot on the chroot I am using and came up with nothing ==> so that was incorrect?
14:18
OK, moving on. How much RAM does your client have?

2GB
14:18
<alkisg>
On the client, on the gnome-terminal that you've opened, run this:
14:18
ltsp-localapps xterm
14:18
Did an xterm open?
14:18
<jtwood>
yeah
14:18
<alkisg>
OK, on that xterm, run: getltscfg -a
14:18
And put the results to pastebin

it actually gave me nothing
14:19
<alkisg>
So you don't have an lts.conf, correct?
14:19
<jtwood>
nope
14:20
<alkisg>
Again on that xterm: grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
14:20
That's really 2 Gb? (just checking)
14:21
<jtwood>
1797332kB
14:21
<alkisg>
Nice. And: cat /etc/ltsp_fat_chroot
14:21
again FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS='ubuntu-desktop'?
14:22
<jtwood>
on the xterm? no such file or directory
14:22
<alkisg>
So you're probably sending the wrong nbd image to the client
14:23
Check /etc/inetd.conf on the server, your dhcpd.conf, and your arch/pxelinux.cfg/default
14:23
<jtwood>
Okay...I bet I am too...
14:23
I didn't even think of changing it in the dhcp.conf
14:23
I feel like a fool...give me a minute
14:23
<alkisg>
Nah it's too much duplicated info to remember it all

Alkisg: You'll love this oen...it looks like it was in ined.conf...but in my infinite wisdom today, I sent a reboot command from the thin client to the server! HAHA

Hehe

Hope it wasn't on production

Nope

Question for you guys. If I power up 30 fat clients at once, is it to be expected that some of them may not boot properly? I was getting some of them hanging at the Edubuntu screen. Maybe 4 or 5. But if I reboot them they fire up just fine. Is booting them up at the same time (30) a bad idea or should I space them out?

<abeehc>
you see any indicate the network link is saturateD?
15:35
<roasted>
It's very doubtful, because when I tested it, nobody else was in the building.....
15:35
They're on a dedicated switch too, so it's not hopping around from switch to switch to closet to closet, etc.
15:38
<abeehc>
gigabit i ahve to assume
15:39
i don't mean other people saturating it
15:39
i mean rebooting 30 clients should and could saturate the link to the server
15:39
<roasted>
I was just curious if 30 clients that start at the SAME time should work or not
15:39
ah okay
15:39
<abeehc>
i offset my reboots a bit
15:39
<roasted>
I was just curious if that was expected
15:39
:)
15:39
<abeehc>
i've seen my box get rocked if poeple all reboot at the same time
15:39
then again my server isn't super good and the vmware nic drivers also blow

<abeehc>
i personaly would sort of expect a bit more stress on the server rebooting that many
15:40
<roasted>
it might also help if I take both gigabit NIC's and use them
15:40
<abeehc>
but for them to actually timeout the network would have to be suffering
15:40
<roasted>
right now I'm only using one
15:40
well they might end up firing up if I let them run, but I got inpatient and I was like they should have loaded by now...
15:41
cause th eother 25 are booted up and good to go
15:41
yet the other 5 or so kinda sit around for a while
15:41
I let them go for 3-4 minutes, no dice. I reboot, bam. works.
15:41
just wanted tomake sure if that was expected. and like Isaid these are fat clients (not sure if theyre that different than thin clients with boot time)

Roasted: no, firing up 30 clients at the same time shouldn't cause you any problems. See if this affects you: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/589034
21:53
If your 2 nics are plain pci then it won't help, the pci bus only has about 1 gb bandwidth anyway
21:53
If they're pci-e, sure, try bonding them, it'll double your client disk speed
