07:08 | <pingufan> Hello. I am a newcomer to LTSP. I actually use openSuSE and therefore kiwi-ltsp, but as in that IRC nobody is responding, I ask here.
| |
07:10 | I have two clients (server-only apps), but I need to connect local memories (USB-Sticks, i.e.) and USB-RS232 converters to clients and use them from the host.
| |
07:10 | How can I do that?
| |
07:10 | If somebody could guide me, please?

| |
09:07 | For usb-rs232 converters, I'd suggest using some localapp, or trying that kernel module that was promising to do usb via ip (unrelated to ltsp)

10:07 | <pingufan> alkisg: Sorry, I was afk for some time.
| |
10:08 | Can you, please, explain to me how I access a locally plugged in USB stick when all apps (including KDE itself) are running on the server?
| |
10:09 | You must know I am doing my very first steps with LTSP and have no useful manual.
| |
10:12 | <alkisg> pingufan: if you don't specifically want KDE, I suggest that you use Gnome, LTSP is more integrated with it. For KDE, I think that you should be seeing the USB stick contents in some subdirectory of /media/
| |
10:12 | For Gnome, they show up in the "places" menu
| |
10:15 | <pingufan> Nono, I need KDE. I am changing a whole office from Windows -> Linux, and the users prefer a GUI similar to Windows. Ergo: KDE
| |
10:15 | <alkisg> OK
| |
10:15 | So check in /media, you should be seeing the stick contents there
| |
10:16 | <pingufan> When I look in /media, I look into the server's /media -- and that one is empty.
| |
10:16 | <alkisg> And you have a stick inserted on the client? what filesystem does it use?
| |
10:16 | vfat?
| |
10:17 | <pingufan> Yes. And the stick is visible, when I plug it into the server
| |
10:17 | <alkisg> Which distro/version are you using?
| |
10:17 | <pingufan> openSuSE 11.4 with kiwi-ltsp.
| |
10:18 | <alkisg> ah, I thought you said you moved away from opensuse - but obviously you meant only the irc channel
| |
10:18 | No idea, their architecture is a bit different from upstream ltsp
| |
10:18 | <pingufan> But at #kiwi-ltsp there are only 5 people, and noone is really interested in switching its brain on - appears to me.
| |
10:19 | <alkisg> And here we usually point people to #kiwi-ltsp, because it's different and we don't know how to support it :)
| |
10:19 | <pingufan> From my point of understanding, the client should place/map the locally connected media to the server. Or am I wrong?
| |
10:19 | <alkisg> Yes, ltspfs is the component that does that
| |
10:20 | Also, on previous ubuntu versions, the user had to be in the 'fuse' group, I don't know if that relates at all to opensuse
| |
10:20 | I don't know how to help you, I don't even know how to get a local root shell on an opensuse thin client
| |
10:24 | <pingufan> Ok, but this is easily to verify. I simply look if there is such a group at all.
| |
10:25 | How is client's audio handled? I read that it should work out of the box, but I only hear a "knock" when the client initializes its sound system, but no KDE boot sound after login.
| |
10:26 | <alkisg> With pulseaudio. Previously kde had some problems with the pulseaudio+phonon integration, but in recent ubuntu versions it works out of the box on kde too.
| |
10:26 | Again, no idea about opensuse.
| |
10:33 | <pingufan> You are still much more help than you possibly believe.
| |
10:34 | I have absolutely no idea where to start, you can at least point me to something.
| |
10:41 | <Hyperbyte> :)
| |
10:42 | pingufan, if you stick around long enough you'll bump into someone who can help you with OpenSUSE no doubt. :)
| |
10:43 | <pingufan> :D That's a little bit too unsure. Would like to get this system installed and away from my desk where I do first tests right now.
| |
10:44 | <Hyperbyte> I know the feeling. It's a bit difficult to get support for non-Ubuntu distros.
| |
10:45 | Took me a while to get LTSP running properly on Fedora too. :)
| |
10:46 | <pingufan> Mhm... But the last thing I'll touch is Ubuntu. My CNC mill runs emc2 on Ubuntu... Uhhh.
| |
10:46 | <Hyperbyte> Well, to be honest with you - I ditched Fedora a while back in favor of Ubuntu, on my LTSP server at least.
| |
10:47 | <pingufan> Sure. But I cannot start doing that and finally end up in having to support multiple distros instead of one.
| |
10:47 | <Hyperbyte> It wasn't a recommendation. :)
| |
10:47 | <pingufan> I know. :P
| |
10:49 | It is a pain to use #kiwi-ltsp Absolutely no responses to any question and - whow - 7 additional users...
| |
10:50 | <Hyperbyte> pingufan, what do you expect? These are people who don't get paid to support you, you know.
| |
10:50 | They're just users, like you. Well some are developers, but you get my point.
| |
10:51 | If you think OpenSUSE LTSP support could be better, I suggest you stick around there and here, and help others with problems, after you get your LTSP working. :)
| |
10:52 | <pingufan> This is the problem. I am a total novice and need help for my first steps.
| |
10:52 | <Hyperbyte> Didn't find anything useful on the Kiwi LTSP wiki?
| |
10:53 | <pingufan> I found dead links and such.
| |
10:53 | A promising "How to configure" link, which ends in a dead page.
| |
10:53 | <Hyperbyte> I guess you better sign up for an account there then and fix those. ;)
| |
10:54 | <pingufan> :)
| |
10:54 | <Hyperbyte> You are using this wiki, right? http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:KIWI-LTSP
| |
10:55 | <pingufan> Well, the LTSP idea is really phantastic. It extends the old idea of terminals to a perfect GUI system. -- Great. Exactly what I want.
| |
10:55 | otavio has left IRC (otavio!~otavio@debian/developer/otavio, Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | |
10:56 | <pingufan> Exactly. And now scroll down to Guides and click on "configuration guide". :/
| |
10:56 | <Hyperbyte> And then?
| |
10:56 | That's not a dead link.
| |
10:57 | <pingufan> No. But pages coming after that...
| |
10:57 | Local Media on Client WIKI
| |
10:58 | <Hyperbyte> http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ltsp/index.php?title=Ltsp_LocalMedia
| |
10:58 | Old document though.
| |
10:58 | No longer relevant. :)
| |
10:59 | <pingufan> Aaaaahhhh --- Need a description which guides me step by step
| |
11:00 | <Hyperbyte> Yeah... like I said, you need to stick around for a while. ;-)
| |
11:01 | <pingufan> This is my only chance. You don't think there is a really good PDF which describes everything?
| |
11:01 | <alkisg> You can also try the ltsp-discuss mailing list, I think a few times people answer kiwi-ltsp-related questions there.
| |
11:02 | But here in the #ltsp irc, I don't think I've ever seen someone getting help about kiwi-ltsp. Mostly they're just pointed to #kiwi-ltsp
| |
11:03 | Truth be told, most people getting help here either use debian or ubuntu
| |
11:04 | <pingufan> I know. The bad news is: in #kiwi-ltsp there is noobe answering. I stick around....
| |
11:12 | Hmm - I looked into the package management of openSuSE and searched for "ltsp". I see a ltspfs with description "Fuse based remote filesystem for LTSP server and thin clients LtspFS is a remote filesystem consisting of two parts: 1) A network server daemon that runs on the LTSP terminal. 2) A FUSE module that runs in userspace on the server, that connects with the daemon on the client." and a not installed "ltspfsd", a daemon for the client. Is
| |
11:12 | that one possibly required?
| |
11:13 | <Hyperbyte> ltspfsd should be installed in your chroot and probably already is. It shouldn't be installed on the server itself.
| |
11:15 | <pingufan> In worst case I uninstall it again.
| |
11:15 | <Hyperbyte> ltspfsd is 1) and ltspfs is 2)
| |
11:15 | eh, read what you just pasted please and realize that it'd be a complete waste of your time. :)
| |
11:21 | <pingufan> You are right.

| |
13:59 | On a multiuser system with many desktop users, the system dbus-daemon process can easily exceed the 1024 open files allowed by the default ulimit. When it exceeds that, it goes into a tight loop, sucking up 100% processor, and nobody can log in.
| |

| |
13:59 | I'd say it's not 100% updated, cause I hate updating this server often
| |
13:59 | any suggestions on how to get around that?
| |
13:59 | <alkisg> That should be your problem then, I don't think the fix was backported

14:22 | <Ghidorah> Does anyone know how to remove sessions from the LDM session list?
| |
14:44 | <anivair> hrm ... I edited that file and i'm seeing no effect. is that bad?>
| |
14:44 | or is there a system variable that I need to set for now?
| |
14:45 | (as for specs, we're running a quad core dell poweredge with disklessworkstation thin clients for the most part)
| |
14:46 | <vagrantc> Ghidorah: you could run a hacked ldminfod that didn't return the sessions you wanted
| |
14:47 | <Ghidorah> vagrantc: My goal is to only allow ubuntu-classic.
| |
14:48 | would the different ldminfod allow for this?
| |
14:48 | <vagrantc> it could do whatever you make it do
| |
14:50 | <anivair> (also, i'm down to 47 users now and I'm still seeing the dbus go nts. maybe it just get hung? I'll reboot and see)
| |
14:50 | nobody's getting any work done anyway
| |
14:52 | <Hyperbyte> anivair, unrelated to your problem, but how much bandwith does your server have, and how much does it use for +100 clients? If you don't mind me asking, that is. :)
| |
14:52 | <anivair> it has a fill gig
| |
14:52 | not 100% sure how much it uses
| |
14:52 | I can check in a bit
| |
14:53 | <Hyperbyte> One gigabit?
| |
14:53 | <anivair> yes
| |
14:54 | I used to run it on a standard 10/100 connection, but the 1000 is a touch faster (not a huge amount faster, oddly)
| |
14:54 | <Hyperbyte> You have 100 times remote X over one gigabit connection?
| |
14:55 | <anivair> Is that hugely abnormal? It's never been a problem before.
| |
14:55 | honestly, they don't do that much
| |
14:55 | most of their day is spend in a text based ssh session
| |
14:55 | <Hyperbyte> I dunno, I just assumed it'd require way more than that.
| |
14:56 | :)
| |
14:56 | <anivair> so far it's been a champ
| |
14:57 | okay, server is back up, so I'll give it a look now
| |
15:04 | (sadly, I can't really tell if this works till i get a ton of people on the system again ... guess I'll wait. In the meantime, will play myself over and over in a game of tic-tak-toe and learn something useful about the horrors of nuclear war)

15:51 | for example
| |
15:52 | which is making me nervoid
| |
15:52 | nervous
| |
15:52 | <abeehc> i think you should be worried if flash wasn't crashing
| |
15:52 | otherwise that's a sign it's working as designed
| |
15:53 | <anivair> hehe
| |
15:53 | as if *that* happens
| |
15:53 | <abeehc> :)
| |
15:53 | <anivair> bizarro world
| |
15:54 | I'm also getting "Jul 20 11:51:06 ltsp1 in.tftpd[20674]: tftp: client does not accept options
| |
15:54 | " wh ich is not something that I'm familiar with
| |
15:54 | is that a normal LTSP message
| |
15:54 | <abeehc> i'm moving flash to the local client pretty quick for my install
| |
15:54 | so i can ignore crashes hehe
| |
15:54 | <anivair> I use it for almost nothing
| |
15:55 | <abeehc> anivair: i have many of those in my logs
| |
15:55 | <anivair> so I don't careif it crashes, I just worry it's inicative of a larger problem
| |
15:55 | okay, that helps
| |
15:55 | thanks
| |
15:55 | <abeehc> tftp: client does not accept options

15:55 | normal stuff i beleive

16:07 | <tastle73> hi everybody. I'm using ubuntu 10.04 and am having a sound issue with Dell optiplexes and sound
| |
16:09 | <anivair> mostly they are using an ssh terminal to access collections softwre from inside a gnome desktop
| |
16:09 | they use the internet a little bit (restricted use)
| |
16:09 | and some of them abuse geyes
| |
16:09 | that's about it
| |
16:09 | oh
| |
16:09 | and twinkle softphones, but those are locally run
| |
16:10 | <mgariepy> ok
| |
16:10 | nice
| |
16:10 | <abeehc> verynice
| |
16:10 | <mgariepy> indeed
| |
16:10 | ;)
| |
16:11 | <abeehc> my experience is generally a virtualized server and it would basicly not do that
| |
16:11 | i wanna say it would melt but it can't cause it's not real
| |
16:12 | <anivair> heh
| |
16:12 | the poweredge handles itself well.
| |
16:12 | also, we're at full capacity now with no problems, so it seems that it was a dbus issue

16:13 | <anivair> looks better, yeah
| |
16:13 | we're at capacity and i'm getting no errors
| |
16:13 | thanks
| |
16:13 | <alkisg_web> You didn't need to reboot, just to run ulimit from a terminal
| |
16:13 | Nice
| |
16:13 | <anivair> ahh
| |
16:13 | well, i did reboot, but it's working anyway
| |
16:14 | I'll ulimit next time (not that I hope there is a next time)
| |
16:14 | <alkisg_web> Yes the conf file works after reboot, the command line before reboot
| |
16:14 | So the command line was only needed to save you from rebooting, you don't need it now
| |
16:15 | And it was fixed in later versions, so you can just forget about that bug now that you've edited the conf file
| |
16:15 | <anivair> sweet!
| |
16:15 | I may need tpo look at upgarding soon anyway
| |
16:15 | what's a practical limit on users for an ltsp server?
| |
16:15 | assuming a pretty beefy quad core system?
| |
16:16 | <vagrantc> anivair: i honestly haven't heard of many systems with more than 30 users
| |
16:16 | <alkisg_web> I never ran big ltsp installations, but for thin clients I guess the network would be the first bottleneck
| |
16:16 | <vagrantc> concurrrent users, that is
| |
16:16 | <anivair> so the first upgrade woul dbe adding another data connection for the server?
| |
16:16 | <alkisg_web> The best thing to do would be to use a system monitor
| |
16:17 | And discover the bottlenecks yourself
| |
16:17 | <anivair> sure thing
| |
16:17 | <vagrantc> it also hugely depends on what they're doing ...
| |
16:17 | a lightweight environment like LXDE instead of GNOME can free up a lot of resources
| |
16:18 | * alkisg_web loves lxde, it even runs (normally, without ltsp) on systems with 64 ram | |
16:18 | <vagrantc> if they're browsing the web and watching flash movies all the time, or running openoffice/libreoffice and such ... it takes considerably more

19:40 | <anti_system> i'm using ltsp on edubuntu but when i try to login says response from server / restarting?
| |
19:41 | <alkisg> anti_system: try running these commands: sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys && sudo ltsp-update-image
| |
19:41 | Then reboot the client
| |
19:41 | <tastle73> so some of my thin client sessions have sound some do not
| |
19:42 | is there a max connections in pulse or something?
| |
19:42 | some way to debug it?
| |
19:44 | <alkisg> tastle73: that happens on the same hardware? E.g. on different boots of the same client? Or on clients with different hardware?
| |
19:44 | <tastle73> identical hardware
| |
19:44 | <alkisg> The client syslog would be the place to look
| |
19:44 | distro/version?

19:44 | <tastle73> ubuntu 10.04

19:54 | <alkisg> From the root shell, try: ssh <user>@server
| |
19:55 | Replace <user> with a username that exists on the server
| |
19:55 | Leave "server" exactly as it is, don't replace it with anything
| |
19:55 | See if you can ssh without seeing any warnings at all
| |
19:58 | <anti_system> cant resolvalkisg i try user@server and give me an error
| |
19:59 | could not resolve the hostname
| |
19:59 | <alkisg> Are you sure you're on a shell on the client?
| |
19:59 | Because "server" is hardcoded in the client /etc/hosts, what you're saying shouldn't ever happen
| |
19:59 | Try this: hostname
| |
20:00 | What does it say?
| |
20:01 | <anti_system> dont use "server" use "localhost"
| |
20:01 | and i can login at ssh
| |
20:01 | <alkisg> Then you didn't manage what the wiki page says
| |
20:01 | Did you change your lts.conf?
| |
20:02 | Are you seated on a thin client?
| |
20:02 | <anti_system> the thin client is an Atom
| |
20:02 | all said
| |
20:03 | :)
| |
20:03 | <alkisg> Hmmm this is going to be difficult. Try again to follow the wiki page that I linked above, and if you don't understand something from that page, ask here so that we explain it better
| |
20:03 | <anti_system> and no i dont change any config on ltsp
| |
20:03 | <alkisg> This link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ClientTroubleshooting#Using%20a%20shell%20SCREEN.
| |
20:03 | That's what you need to do to start troubleshooting
| |
20:04 | It says there "go and change your configuration file named lts.conf"
| |
20:04 | Start with the "sudo gedit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf" that is mentioned there.
| |
20:08 | <anti_system> alkisg i chroot the i386 dir

20:09 | dont list anything
