| 00:01 | <vagrantc> alright, ltsp-config dnsmasq is working, as long as there isn't a conflicting file already present.

| 00:03 | <rhorstkoetter> vagrantc: just in case you need it at some point in time. the solution seems to be http://www.linfo.org/etc_skel.html - I remembered /etc/skel from knoppix times and will now play with it
| |
| 00:04 | seems to me that setting up one user and then copy the configuration to /etc/skel should provide the very same desktop to user 2,3,4,5
| |
| 00:04 | <vagrantc> rhorstkoetter: /etc/skell only applies to newly created users ...
| |
| 00:05 | rhorstkoetter: if you decide you want different defaults at some later date, you'll have to change all the existing users mannually
| |
| 00:05 | <rhorstkoetter> in ubuntu there even is a separate skeleton for the guest user account and that would imply that one may even provide several different skeletons for certain groups of users and with some scripting that may solve the "new users" issues
| |
| 00:05 | vagrantc: that's true
| |
| 00:06 | <vagrantc> also, many configurations embed usernames in their configuration, so you can't simply copy a template user :(
| |
| 00:06 | <rhorstkoetter> I try to be optimistic :p better a solution for new users but existing ones vs no solution for new+existing users
| |
| 00:06 | <vagrantc> gconf and dconf both support global configuration
| |
| 00:07 | both are varyingly obtuse to use, but it's "the right way"
| |
| 00:07 | <rhorstkoetter> thinking about it, you're right
| |
| 00:07 | just found out the right way to customize upstart jobs
| |
| 00:07 | one step forward
| |
| 00:08 | it's /etc/init/<service>.override
| |
| 00:09 | survives an update vs editing the default /etc/init/<service>.conf
| |
| 00:09 | adios network-manager ;)

| 10:04 | * Hyperbyte gives alkisg a confused look | |
| 10:04 | <alkisg> Hyperbyte: lts.conf is part of the ltsp-docs package
| |
| 10:04 | If you get the package source, you'll see that it's not a plain text file but it's genereated from a Makefile
| |
| 10:04 | <Hyperbyte> This is about lts.conf documentation, not about the lts.conf configuration file itself?
| |
| 10:04 | ogra_ has joined IRC (ogra_!~ogra@p5098ed03.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | |
| 10:04 | <alkisg> Yup
| |
| 10:05 | I.e. the `man lts.conf` manpage
| |
| 10:05 | <Hyperbyte> Oh!
| |
| 10:05 | I thought someone had come up with the brilliant plan to migrate lts.conf into xml format.
| |
| 10:05 | <alkisg> ...brilliant? Are you nuts? Would you expect people to edit .xml files to configure ltsp? :P
| |
| 10:06 | Nah, I think that the next plan is to move the configuration in /etc/lts.conf.d as plain (shell) text files
| |
| 10:06 | <Hyperbyte> ... the Greek do have sarcasm, do they? :P
| |
| 10:06 | <alkisg> ...we invented it but personally I'm a bit slow :P
| |
| 10:07 | <Hyperbyte> Ever since I've made a mandatory gconf profile with locked toolbars, applets, desktop, etc, I get chills down my spine when I see 'xml'

| 10:18 | <ogra_> alkisg, uuuh, dropping getltscfg ?
| |
| 10:18 | <alkisg> ogra_: hehe, only in the long term plans
| |
| 10:18 | <ogra_> (the last remaining bit of code from ltsp4)
| |
| 10:18 | <alkisg> For now we don't even touch it to remove the requirement for a [Default] section, or the syntax error about empty sections ;)
| |
| 10:19 | It's holy code ;)
| |
| 10:19 | <ogra_> hha
| |
| 10:19 | *haha
| |
| 10:19 | <alkisg> The server may send shell-sourceable files to each client, so in that case there wouldn't be need for getltscfg -a (which e.g. doesn't exist in the initramfs)
| |
| 10:20 | <ogra_> yeah
| |
| 10:20 | <alkisg> And getltscfg-cluster could then be merged as well
| |
| 10:20 | * ogra_ likes shell config.d style setups :) | |
| 10:20 | <alkisg> And we already have a daemon (ldminfod), so why not reuse it for everything...
| |
| 10:21 | <ogra_> btw, the next UDS is 100% confirmed to be in europe

| 10:21 | komunista has joined IRC (komunista!~slavko@adsl-195-168-237-046.dynamic.nextra.sk) | |
| 10:21 | <ogra_> so BTS in maine will be tricky
| |
| 10:21 | at least for all ubuntuers
| |
| 10:22 | * alkisg probably can't make it to either events, my last chance was in the previous UDS and I missed it :( | |
| 10:22 | <alkisg> debconfs only in the future, which are in the summer (vacations)
| |
| 10:22 | <ogra_> well, we could have BTS in greece :)
| |
| 10:22 | <alkisg> Yey!
| |
| 10:23 | <ogra_> you should talk to jim and scott about it
| |
| 10:23 | <alkisg> I'll bring the chicks!
| |
| 10:23 | <ogra_> haha
| |
| 10:23 | <alkisg> Where in Europe (the UDS)? Has it been decided?
| |
| 10:23 | * ogra_ wouldnt mind to be in greece in november instead of cold and snowy maine :) | |
| 10:24 | <ogra_> it isnt finalized so i cant talk about it
| |
| 10:24 | <alkisg> Nah if you're coming to greece it has to be in the summer, LTSP BTS and with swimming suits :)
| |
| 10:24 | OK
| |
| 10:24 | * alkisg proposed Crete, nicest beaches and bars, and modest prices | |
| 10:25 | * ogra_ only knows the greek north, cant judge about crete ... | |
| 10:27 | <ogra_> i had a dog that was picked up on the naxos beach for 18 years though :)
| |
| 10:28 | <alkisg> Hehe did you manage to teach him german?
| |
| 10:28 | * alkisg knows dogs that know more german than him :P | |
| 10:30 | <ogra_> no, but her poyfriend taught her ;)
| |
| 10:30 | *boy
| |
| 10:30 | she has born me the nicest greek/german hybrid puppies ;)

| |
| 11:14 | <ogra_> Hyperbyte, as a suggestion, yes
| |
| 11:15 | since many of us cant come if UDS is in europe (which it wasnt in the past for the oct/nov UDS)

| 11:20 | <sha> hi, I'm building LTSP on Ubuntu 12.04 and have a problem with the kernel commandline which is always generated when updating ltsp-client: everytime i have to manually edit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default and set the missing IP in "nbdroot=:ltsp_i386". any hints how to define nbd server's ip so that the generated commandline is working without the need for manually editing?

| 11:39 | <iku_> ltsp 5.2 ubuntu 10.04
| |
| 11:39 | <alkisg> iku_: and you switched to NFS? Ubuntu uses NBD by default...
| |
| 11:42 | <Hyperbyte> mealstrom, so basically, an application starts slow on the server?
| |
| 11:43 | iku__ has joined IRC (iku__!c193130a@gateway/web/freenode/ip.193.147.19.10) | |
| 11:43 | <iku__> sry blue screen :P
| |
| 11:43 | iku_ has left IRC (iku_!c193130a@gateway/web/freenode/ip.193.147.19.10, Ping timeout: 245 seconds) | |
| 11:43 | <iku__> yes, uses nbd by default
| |
| 11:44 | but i thnik is more easy to managa chroot than build an image every time you make any change
| |
| 11:45 | <ogra_> do you make changes that often ?
| |
| 11:45 | <iku__> also when i build the clients image, ltsp do an perfect server image
| |
| 11:46 | <ogra_> after your initial setup ?
| |
| 11:46 | <iku__> in testing enviroment yes
| |
| 11:46 | <ogra_> no,i8 mean in production
| |
| 11:46 | <iku__> sry for my english
| |
| 11:46 | <ogra_> once you have set up all clients bits to support your HW there is really no reason to update the image
| |
| 11:47 | <iku__> yes, but the image that ltsp builds do a copy of the server i thought is better chroot clients
| |
| 11:48 | <ogra_> how do you mean "a copy of the server" ?
| |
| 11:48 | the image is rolled from the chroot in /opt
| |
| 11:48 | that has (and shouldnt have) no server bits
| |
| 11:49 | <iku__> no chroot dont any server service
| |
| 11:49 | <ogra_> right and the image is built from there
| |
| 11:50 | so i dont understand what you mean by "the image that ltsp builds do a copy of the server"
| |
| 11:50 | <Hyperbyte> ogra_, I think he might be talking about ltsp-pnp.
| |
| 11:51 | <iku__> no
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> ltsp-pnp isn't published yet
| |
| 11:51 | <ogra_> Hyperbyte, ah, i havent looked at that yet
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> iku__: when you login with LTSP, you are at your server
| |
| 11:51 | That's why you see the server applications
| |
| 11:51 | <Hyperbyte> Ah.
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> It's not different if you use NFS
| |
| 11:51 | (or nx, or vnc)
| |
| 11:51 | <Hyperbyte> vnc++
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> iku__: please read the LTSP docs to learn about how LTSP works
| |
| 11:51 | !docs
| |
| 11:51 | <ltsp`> alkisg: docs: For the most current documentation, see https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ltsp/index.php?title=Ltsp_LtspDocumentationUpstream
| |
| 11:52 | <ogra_> iku__, imagine the thin clients (and their image/chroot) as a tool that just enables an additional kbd/mouse/monitor of your server
| |
| 11:52 | <sha> i really think i miss some documentation which i couldn't find yet... for example, ltspfs. i'm trying to use an usb-stick with ltspfs and lxde, so far i found /usr/share/doc/ltspfs/examples/notify ... according to some archived mails i found with google i should put that script in /opt/ltsp/<arch>/etc/ltspfs/mounter.d/ , but nothing happens. is this the correct path?
| |
| 11:52 | <Hyperbyte> alkisg, vnc is so awesome over internet. Yesterday I remote controlled our music playout system from our broadcast location, for seven hours, over 3G. Performance was superb, and I used up about 150 MB bandwith doing so.
| |
| 11:52 | <ogra_> the *session* after login is actually running on the server
| |
| 11:52 | <iku__> then why i cant login with a user in the chroot?
| |
| 11:53 | <alkisg> Hyperbyte: nx is waaaaaay better than vnc :)
| |
| 11:53 | <ogra_> iku__, the chroot has no users enabled, it is just for getting the thin client HW to act as extensions of the server
| |
| 11:53 | <Hyperbyte> alkisg, how much bandwith does it use for seven hours remote controlling? :)
| |
| 11:53 | <alkisg> Hyperbyte: I haven't measured, but I guess less than half of what vnc uses
| |
| 11:54 | iku__: a quick way to get the idea is to imagine ltsp clients like "windows 98" machines that use remote desktop to connect to your "windows 2008" ltsp server.
| |
| 11:55 | <iku__> i think i understand u
| |
| 11:57 | ok
| |
| 11:59 | then for use chroot's without login in the server(like remote desktop), how i do to log a client in the chroot's? i tested to create a differents users....build a kiosk(that create a user "ltspkiosk" on chroot) but anything work

| |
| 12:01 | <iku__> yesss
| |
| 12:01 | kmaybe my enclish expression isnt good sry :P
| |
| 12:01 | <alkisg> iku__: please explain why, so that we can help you better
| |

| |
| 12:03 | i want to run client desktops that can connect with a citrix xenapp
| |
| 12:03 | i thought ltsp will be an interesting idea
| |
| 12:04 | <alkisg> Can you connect to a citrix xenapp from a normal (non-ltsp) ubuntu installation?
| |
| 12:05 | <iku__> yes
| |
| 12:05 | the only thing u have to do is install citrix reciever

| 12:10 | but im not able to log a client without be in the server (like remote dektop)
| |
| 12:10 | i dont want that :P
| |
| 12:12 | <alkisg> You need to learn more about LTSP before you can make a screen script that does what you want
| |
| 12:12 | <mealstrom> Hyperbyte: sory for late answers. but yes. applications starts slowly on server. Im using this architect: NAS server - > nfsmount home to ltsp server -> thin clients.
| |
| 12:12 | <alkisg> It's not hard, but you need to learn about how LTSP works and also a bit of shell programming
| |
| 12:13 | <iku__> ok thanks for help
| |
| 12:14 | <ogra_> once you have such a script it would be good to get it included in the code though :)
| |
| 12:14 | <iku__> yes....of course

| |
| 12:19 | :)
| |
| 12:20 | <Hyperbyte> mealstrom, and I assume if you log in using the monitor and keyboard attached to the server, the applications also start slow?
| |

| 18:30 | <bieb> have an odd one.. new install of 12.04.. was able to login this morning prior to doing some work on cups/setting up our printers. After running ltsp-update-image, I can't login. When I tail syslog http://pastebin.com/1W8Yu9L9
| |
| 18:30 | <alkisg> vagrantc: hi, sorry I was AFK. Yup, up an working fine here! :)
| |
| 18:30 | !ltsp-pnp
| |
| 18:30 | <ltsp`> alkisg: ltsp-pnp: ltsp-pnp is an alternative (upstream) method to maintain LTSP installations for thin and fat clients that doesn't involve chroots: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ltsp-pnp
| |
| 18:31 | <alkisg> vagrantc: we need to ship the lts.conf example
| |
| 18:31 | And also I changed 2 lines in debian/rules so that I bypass the autogen/missing problem:
| |
| 18:32 | <bieb> hmmm an alternative ltsp huh?
| |
| 18:32 | <alkisg> vagrantc: [ ! -f client/localapps/missing ] || $(MAKE) -C client/localapps clean
| |
| 18:32 | [ ! -f client/nbd-proxy/missing ] || $(MAKE) -C client/nbd-proxy clean
| |
| 18:32 | bieb: just another method to maintain ltsp, it doesn't involve different tools...
| |
| 18:34 | vagrantc: and, some other packaging-related notes: pulseaudio dependency, create /opt/ltsp from postinst or from debian/dirs, recommend: ltsp-docs, and in the default ldm theme the label is too small and the greek translation of "Password" doesn't fit
| |
| 18:35 | Other than those I saw no problems; I wasn't able to reproduce the userdel problem
| |
| 18:35 | <bieb> alkisg: so if I am making crossover available.. it would be installed prior to the ltsp install?
| |
| 18:36 | <alkisg> bieb: it doesn't matter, if you add software later on you can just re-run ltsp-update-image --cleanup /, it only takes about 10 minutes
| |
| 18:37 | <bieb> alkisg: interesting.. as you can see I am having an image issue, just trying to see if this might make my life easier
| |
| 18:38 | <vagrantc> alkisg: not so sure that's the appropriate workaround for the missing makefiles.
| |
| 18:38 | <alkisg> bieb: sorry I didn't read about your problem, so I don't know if ltsp-pnp will make your life easier or not
| |
| 18:38 | vagrantc: it probably isn't; I just did it so that I can tell launchpad to build from trunk + your packaging without uploading anything
| |
| 18:38 | But it shouldn't be much worse than checking for the Makefile...
| |
| 18:38 | <bieb> alkisg: you can take a look at the pastebin.. its only about 8 lines from syslog
| |
| 18:38 | :D
| |
| 18:39 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i wonder if i have the logic reversed.
| |
| 18:39 | alkisg: it should only call the makefile if it's present...
| |
| 18:39 | <alkisg> vagrantc: maybe the makefile is present and "missing" isn't...
| |
| 18:40 | <bieb> alkisg: other than working on cups/printer setup.. I locked home dirs (chmod 770) so that students can't access other student's home dir
| |
| 18:42 | <mnevans> Hello LTSP world. I am having trouble with displays: ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
| |
| 18:43 | The login screen seems to be stretched across an imaginary second display, so that you can't actually see the typing of userid and password.
| |
| 18:43 | My lts.conf is here: http://pastebin.com/bTFntcy8
| |
| 18:43 | <alkisg> bieb: if you're talking about the nbd-disconnect error, that's normal, the client just mounts the image to see if a newer version is available, so that it prompts the user for a reboot
| |
| 18:44 | <mnevans> my xorg.conf is here: http://pastebin.com/aTYj14kc

| 18:45 | <mnevans> Displays are connected with vga connectors, amd hudson e350 APUs, 1920x1080 native screen resolution.
| |
| 18:45 | <alkisg> mnevans: you don't need a xorg.conf to specify the driver, you can just use XSERVER=fglrx
| |
| 18:45 | mnevans: first, login, then run xrandr, and paste the output to pastebin
| |
| 18:45 | <bieb> alkisg: when I try to login as a user, it seems to authenticate.. the login box goes away, leaving the login background, with the clock looking loader.. screen flashes black.. then drops right back to login prompt
| |
| 18:45 | <mnevans> @alkisg (my hero), would that explain the phantom display?
| |
| 18:46 | <alkisg> mnevans: no, that's a common ldm bug, and it can be solved with XRANDR_* lts.conf commands
| |
| 18:46 | <mnevans> ...I'll give it a try.
| |
| 18:46 | <alkisg> bieb: sounds like an X failure then, e.g. compiz, unity-3d, nvidia drivers in the server, nomodeset, etc etc

| 18:51 | <mnevans> @alkisg, this is not just a problem with ldm; it hoses any attempt to use lxde, for instance, as any prompt or window appears on the imaginary display, which is impossible to see.
| |
| 18:51 | <alkisg> mnevans: yes, please paste the output of xrandr

| |

| |
| 18:58 | <bieb> alkisg: is there a way for me to capture the screen when it goes black for the brief couple seconds to see if there is an error there? I have tried to hit "pause" on the keyboard to see if it would allow me any time to read the text
| |
| 18:58 | <mnevans> Here is xrandr output from a terminal with the phantom display problem (fixed by choosing "mirrored" in Settings> Displays: http://pastebin.com/ArHxwGGm

| |
| 19:21 | <alkisg> Haha, you're welcome :)
| |
| 19:22 | <mnevans> I guess it was magic?
| |
| 19:24 | <alkisg> It's just the proper xrandr commands to do the "mirror" that you did from gnome
| |
| 19:25 | <bieb> how do I change programs in the unity launcher and push it aout to the clients?
| |
| 19:26 | <mnevans> OK, I kind of see... Although I can't see why the "mirror" switch worked in the first place!

| 19:34 | <mealstrom> hi, how does LOCAL_APPS_MENU=TRUE with LOCAL_APPS=TRUE works? say ive got skype installed in chroot and on server(12.04 both Ubuntus). When i run skype from Applications->internet->skype -- it starts on server, if i run it via ltsp-localapps `which skype` - it starts on ltsp-client host machine and all is ok.
| |
| 19:36 | <Guest13235> Hello all :) today i changed from a 306m to x3650. and installed a new 10.04 LTSP on the 3650. it worked like a charm, and the one client that i currently uses boots as it i supposed to do. then i updated (and updated, and updated) so that i now have 12.04. i builded a new image, updated ssh, and updated image. restarted. but. the client dosent get past the boot splash screen. it does get ip, and so on.
| |
| 19:36 | Guest13235 is now known as JensenDan | |
| 19:37 | <JensenDan> what to do now? :)
| |
| 19:38 | <alkisg> !quiet-splash
| |
| 19:38 | <ltsp`> alkisg: quiet-splash: to disable the splash screen in Ubuntu, in order to see any boot error messages, run `sudo gedit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default` and remove quiet splash .
| |
| 19:40 | <JensenDan> do i then need to update somthing?
| |
| 19:40 | yeah.. that dident work. so i do need to update somthing.. but what?
| |
| 19:41 | ofc.. that is in i386 dir.. updating image.
| |
| 19:42 | still showing splash?
| |
| 19:44 | <alkisg> JensenDan: no, you don't need to update the image
| |
| 19:44 | <JensenDan> no. i found out.. but then it has no effect.
| |
| 19:45 | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/951526
| |
| 19:45 | hitting esc has the same effect.. it shows
| |
| 19:46 | <alkisg> JensenDan: if you modify pxelinux.cfg/default and it has no effect, you have another problem
| |
| 19:46 | E.g. another tftpboot/* subdir or another server or using nfs etc
| |
| 19:46 | <JensenDan> sending discover < br> sending select for 192.168.0.21 <br > recieved dhcp nak
| |
| 19:47 | it just rools down the screen, again and again..
| |
| 19:47 | what is that? :)
| |
| 19:48 | <alkisg> It probably means you have another dhcp server on your network that tells the client that this IP isn't valid
| |
| 19:48 | <mealstrom> dhcp protocol conversation : DISCOVER -> OFFER -> REQUEST -> ACK (nack)
| |
| 19:48 | <JensenDan> that sounds right..

| 19:48 | <JensenDan> i do have another dhcp... but why wasent that a prob before?
| |
| 19:49 | <vagrantc> alkisg: so "ltsp-config dnsmasq" worked great, unless i had another /etc/dnsmasq.d/foo with conflicting configuration
| |
| 19:49 | <mealstrom> after first client DISCOVER --> every dhcp sends offer. and who sends first -- that gets client.
| |

| |
| 19:51 | * alkisg frequently writes {var+:foo} instead of {var:+foo} :( | |
| 19:51 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i got it working for me :)
| |
| 19:52 | <mealstrom> what script uses this vartiable (LOCAL_APPS_MENU)?
| |
| 19:52 | JensenDan has joined IRC (JensenDan!~dan@77.68.143.223) | |
| 19:52 | <alkisg> vagrantc: so now the top problems are the userdel problem on your installation (which I can't reproduce, I wonder if it's aufs, haven't tried that yet), and the lts.conf example
| |
| 19:52 | <JensenDan> disconnecting the other dhcp from the network, dosent do any diffrence.
| |
| 19:53 | <alkisg> So you're still getting a NAK?
| |
| 19:53 | <mealstrom> JensenDan: you can make static IP for that host
| |
| 19:54 | <vagrantc> alkisg: || true works around the userdel problem... and it does seem to successfully delete the user
| |
| 19:54 | alkisg: ugly, for sure...
| |
| 19:54 | * alkisg tries with aufs... | |
| 19:55 | <vagrantc> alkisg: and i couldn't reproduce it on a booted thin client... which is at least somewhat of a similar environment

| 19:55 | [GuS] has left IRC ([GuS]!~MysT@unaffiliated/gus/x-663402, Quit: Konversation terminated!) | |
| 19:55 | <vagrantc> should try with ext4 as the backend read-only fs.
| |
| 19:55 | <alkisg> And, whenever you have some time to play with ${build-vars}, you could remove nfs-kernel-server from a dependency on ubuntu
| |
| 19:55 | <vagrantc> right
| |
| 19:56 | alkisg: couldn't figure out how it's implemented on a per-package basis.
| |
| 19:56 | <JensenDan> yes, still that nak
| |
| 19:56 | <alkisg> JensenDan: search for yet another dhcp server
| |
| 19:57 | <JensenDan> i know my system, it is a local system at my home :) running 2 x3650 and 2 x345. only the ltsp one is running dhcp, and the router..
| |
| 19:58 | oh and 2 ds4100 storage. but they have nothing to do with this.
| |
| 19:58 | <alkisg> vagrantc: works fine with aufs too... I'll try with a debian/lxde installation when you upload a package in unstable

| 19:58 | Mip has joined IRC (Mip!~Mip@208.72.71.69) | |

| |
| 19:58 | ipappend 3
| |
| 19:59 | Then reboot the client. If it works, it's a dhcp problem.
| |

| |
| 20:04 | to sec
| |
| 20:04 | i386
| |
| 20:05 | <alkisg> Right, that's the problem
| |
| 20:05 | <JensenDan> i need to edit the amd64 part to i386 in dhcp conf?
| |
| 20:05 | <alkisg> So either modify the correct pxelinux.cfg/default or your dhpcd.conf, depending on what you want
| |
| 20:05 | <JensenDan> in filename
| |
| 20:05 | <alkisg> What chroot do you have? i386 or amd64?

| |
| 20:12 | <JensenDan> wich means? :)
| |
| 20:13 | <alkisg> JensenDan: is your nbd-server up and running? ps -fC nbd-server
| |
| 20:13 | or, sudo netstat -nap | grep 10809
| |
| 20:13 | <JensenDan> UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
| |
| 20:13 | <alkisg> sudo service nbd-server start
| |
| 20:13 | vagrantc: I really think we should postpone that for wheezy+1
| |
| 20:14 | Or at least after wheezy is out, and you could put it in the backports
| |
| 20:14 | <JensenDan> nbd-server.
| |
| 20:14 | was the output of the last start thing
| |
| 20:14 | <alkisg> JensenDan: ok reboot the client
| |
| 20:14 | <JensenDan> now it worked.
| |
| 20:14 | <vagrantc> alkisg: make me cry :P
| |
| 20:15 | <alkisg> vagrantc: ...we do want a proper solution for that and not a quick hack, don't we? :-/
| |
| 20:15 | <vagrantc> alkisg: yes, we do.
| |
| 20:15 | <alkisg> I thought feature freeze was some time ago :D
| |
| 20:15 | <JensenDan> you are a good guy :) pretty nice with the gnome3 on clients.. thanks to you, but could u tell me what the problem was? those 15k sas does a pretty good job though.
| |
| 20:16 | <vagrantc> alkisg: well, i'll see if i can make some incremental improvements.
| |
| 20:16 | <alkisg> JensenDan: the first problem was that you needed to edit dhcpd for i386 clients on an amd64 server, and the second was that nbd-server wasn't running
| |
| 20:17 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i need something that can select between amd64/pae/other and it would be nice to have that upstreamed
| |
| 20:17 | <JensenDan> oh, so all in all, i was just stupid ;)
| |
| 20:17 | <alkisg> vagrantc: selectable by the user with a menu, or e.g. by the sysadmin on a per-chroot basis?
| |
| 20:18 | <JensenDan> is it hard to make a menu so i can choose to boot as ltsp client, or serve me an install image? that would be SO awesome!
| |
| 20:18 | <vagrantc> alkisg: autodetected at boot with ifcpu64.c32
| |
| 20:18 | <alkisg> Well, that's not pxelinux menus then at all :)
| |
| 20:19 | That should be easier, assuming that pxelinux supports it
| |
| 20:19 | <vagrantc> alkisg: also, i really need to explore not relying on the deprecated vmlinuz/initrd.img symlinks ... as it may get yanked for wheezy.
| |
| 20:19 | <alkisg> JensenDan: what do you mean "install image"?
| |
| 20:19 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i use it all the time, but i need to figure out a way to integrate it into LTSP.
| |
| 20:20 | <alkisg> vagrantc: ltsp-update-image --cleanup generates the symlinks (as /etc/kernel-img.conf doesn't contain the symlinks_in_boot stuff) with sort -frV, but does prefer the non-pae kernels
| |
| 20:21 | <JensenDan> alkisg: so that i can do a pxe install, or what it is called, install other machines over the network?
| |
| 20:21 | <alkisg> JensenDan: install Ubuntu? Or other OS? You can easily write pxelinux menus manually, check its wiki
| |
| 20:22 | <vagrantc> alkisg: right, so you already have some code for that.
| |
| 20:22 | <alkisg> vagrantc: did you get ifcpu64.c32 to work as you want it, and you didn't script it yet, or you didn't get it working at all?
| |
| 20:22 | <JensenDan> i actually know a little about making the menu. but it is serving the os part. i dont know, suse, ubuntu, ipfire and so on? linux distros, i know it is almost imnpossible to serve win that way.
| |
| 20:22 | <vagrantc> alkisg: it's just not scripted, i know how to use it.
| |
| 20:23 | alkisg: though there are several options for how it should be scripted ... design decisions.
| |
| 20:23 | <JensenDan> i do have a custom menu on my 306m . but i dident know how to serve the install images ?
| |
| 20:23 | <vagrantc> alkisg: for my need, i just need it to select the appropriate kernel for an i386 chroot ... but you also could select an amd64 chroot instead.
| |
| 20:23 | <alkisg> vagrantc: sounds cool... ah btw I didn't do the seperate /boot partition thing, I'm a bit worried about mount --rbind
| |
| 20:24 | <vagrantc> alkisg: what about a blacklist of mountpoints not to bind-mount?
| |
| 20:25 | alkisg: or at least explicitly mount boot if it's a mountpoint.
| |
| 20:25 | <alkisg> vagrantc: I think the easiest way would be to just tell overlayfs/aufs to use /, ro of course
| |
| 20:25 | No bind-mount involved
| |
| 20:25 | And since /tmp is excluded with ltsp-update-image.excludes, it shouldn't cause any problems
| |
| 20:25 | <JensenDan> omg 1U servers making a lot of noise.. and there is SO hot in this rack :(
| |
| 20:26 | at least it is only the 306m there is a 1U
| |
| 20:26 | <vagrantc> alkisg: but isn't that what it already does? with --bind ? or are you proposing to use --rbind ?
| |
| 20:26 | <alkisg> JensenDan: you might want to use google translate on this: http://alkisg.mysch.gr/steki/index.php?topic=2828.0

| 20:27 | <alkisg> vagrantc: no, I used bind to mount / to $(mktemp -d)/rofs, so that it doesn't get /proc and the other filesystems
| |
| 20:27 | But that's not really needed as they're excluded from the nbd image anyways
| |
| 20:27 | So by completely removing the mount --bind step, it should also take /boot
| |
| 20:27 | <JensenDan> ehm,, by just looking at the pics i can say that this is very nice.. and the menu is a bit diff from the one i made.
| |
| 20:29 | <alkisg> vagrantc: but I wonder what would happen with e.g. /dev then, would it also copy all block devices? :-/

| |
| 20:29 | <alkisg> Just paste the page url
| |
| 20:29 | (in translate.google.com of course)
| |
| 20:30 | <JensenDan> nice
| |
| 20:30 | <mnevans> Alkisg: I hate to say it, but it broke again on the client that *hadn't* been giving me trouble...
| |
| 20:31 | <alkisg> mnevans: did you put a [mac:address] section in lts.conf?
| |
| 20:31 | <mnevans> Ubuntu 12.04 amd e350 client connected to a 1680x1050 display
| |
| 20:31 | Here is the lts.conf:
| |
| 20:31 | <alkisg> !pastebin
| |
| 20:31 | <ltsp`> alkisg: pastebin: the LTSP pastebin is at http://ltsp.pastebin.com. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebin, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. Don't forget to paste the URL of the text here.

| |
| 20:32 | <alkisg> And the lts.conf?
| |
| 20:33 | (to see about the [mac:address] section)
| |
| 20:33 | <mnevans> I tried to set the resolution and fix the mirroring as you showed me earlier today: http://pastebin.com/b6xhzBbw
| |
| 20:34 | <alkisg> mnevans: do you actually have that comment right next to the section without a # in front of it?
| |
| 20:34 | <mnevans> It keeps going to 1024 x 768 resolution.
| |
| 20:35 | <JensenDan> ehm...
| |
| 20:35 | even on my lang (danish) i dosent get it..
| |
| 20:35 | where do you set the text in the menu?
| |
| 20:35 | <alkisg> mnevans: DisplayPort-0 doesn't support 1680x1050, you'd need to add it
| |
| 20:35 | <JensenDan> like "Booting a thin client" blabla
| |
| 20:35 | <mnevans> Err, yes. Oops. Fixed now. Rebooting the thin client. (I don't think this is going to solve it.)
| |
| 20:35 | <alkisg> JensenDan: see the attachments in that page
| |
| 20:36 | mnevans: was it working some time before?
| |
| 20:36 | <mnevans> Hmm. How would I add that resolution? Using output of xrandr in lts.conf?
| |
| 20:36 | <JensenDan> pictures?
| |
| 20:37 | <mnevans> Yes, it was, and it seems to be intermittent. I see 1680 x 1050 resolution sometimes on ldm screen, sometimes on login, sometimes it'll spontaneously change resolution afrter login.
| |
| 20:37 | <alkisg> JensenDan: no, the "default" file
| |
| 20:37 | <mnevans> But not now twice.
| |
| 20:38 | <JensenDan> yeah, i see that one? there is no "text"
| |
| 20:38 | hey
| |
| 20:38 | listen
| |
| 20:38 | iam stupid, right?

| |
| 20:39 | <ltsp`> mnevans localxterm: Any applications that you launch on a thin client actually runs on the server, not on the client itself. If you want to open a program on the client locally, you can type 'ltsp-localapps <program>' in a run dialog or in a terminal. For example, 'ltsp-localapps xterm' to open a terminal running on the client.
| |
| 20:39 | <alkisg> mnevans: from the localxterm, open /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and put it to pastebin
| |
| 20:39 | To see if it's a problem with EDID
| |
| 20:40 | <JensenDan> KERNEL syslinux/memdisk
| |
| 20:40 | do i have that outof the box?
| |
| 20:40 | <alkisg> JensenDan: I think you can find the rest in the pxelinux wiki, or in the #syslinux channel :)
| |
| 20:40 | It completely out of topic now...
| |
| 20:41 | <JensenDan> all right :)
| |
| 20:41 | thanks btw.

| |
| 20:48 | If I comment out the section where I tried to set 1680x1050 resolution with DisplayPort setting in lts.conf,
| |
| 20:48 | I get briefly 1680x1050 on ldm and login. Then it chokes on the impossibly high refresh (146KHz?) and reverts to 1024x768.
| |
| 20:49 | And the client seems to want a restart. "to complete updates".
| |
| 20:49 | ...But now it just reverted back to 1680x1050...
| |
| 20:51 | xrandr output: http://pastebin.com/rb4iX65B
| |
| 20:51 | Looks like it is at 60.0KHz.
| |
| 20:58 | <alkisg> mnevans: do you want the DisplayPort-0 output device on or not?
| |
| 20:58 | If not, just disable it so that 1680x1050 can be used...
