| 03:38 | <ternarybit> Do I understand correctly that an LTSP client will PXE boot into whatever system the server is running? E.g. if the server is running Debian/LXDE w/ Chromium, all that will be available to the client?
| |
| 03:40 | <Fenuks> ternarybit: Yes, if it is a thin client. I think it's default for ltsp on ubuntu and debian
| |
| 03:41 | <ternarybit> Fenuks: thanks. So, if I were to later add (say) LibreOffice, all the clients would then have access to it as well?
| |
| 03:42 | <vagrantc> ternarybit: think of it as extra monitors, mice and keyboards for the server.
| |
| 03:42 | <Fenuks> ternarybit: Yes, no need to reboot the clients
| |
| 03:42 | <ternarybit> Very nice. So I must ask: what about persistence?
| |
| 03:43 | <Fenuks> yes, as vagrantc said, thin clients are just like terminals, translating image from server and sending your keyboard and mouse actions to server
| |
| 03:43 | <vagrantc> files will still be there
| |
| 03:43 | <Fenuks> files will be stored on server by default, although you can mount local storage, like usb-flas drives
| |
| 03:43 | <vagrantc> but you can disconnect from a session and reconnect with all your applications in the same state ...
| |
| 03:43 | by default.
| |
| 03:44 | <ternarybit> very nice. So if I have 5 unique users on the server, their files just stay in /home like normal.
| |
| 03:44 | <vagrantc> there was some support for that using xrdp on the server and rdp from ldm, but i haven't tested it in ages.
| |
| 03:44 | ternarybit: yup.
| |
| 03:44 | ternarybit: you *need* unique users.
| |
| 03:45 | <ternarybit> Of course
| |
| 03:45 | <vagrantc> well, in theory you wouldn't, but code is written poorly these days.
| |
| 03:45 | many applications behave unpredictibly. use unique users.
| |
| 03:47 | <ternarybit> I assume I could even sync user accounts from AD and map their /home folder back to their existing CIFS share
| |
| 03:47 | <Fenuks> ternarybit: Firefox and open/libreoffice will refuse to launch more then once under same user. So, if you have 2 people connected as same user, only one of them will be able to use those programs
| |
| 03:48 | <ternarybit> Well that's great. Sounds pretty straightforward. As I read on wikipedia quite suited for education, where I am considering deploying it
| |
| 03:50 | <Fenuks> Yes, it is. I use it in my university. You need good network, though, as traffic is pretty significant
| |
| 03:50 | <ternarybit> we have gb core switches and clients are either 10/100 or gb
| |
| 03:53 | How do you manage user accounts? Just straight from the server or do you have a different backend?
| |
| 03:53 | <vagrantc> i've mostly added them to the server, but you can use whatever backend you want.
| |
| 03:54 | ternarybit: as long as it allows the user to ssh into the server.
| |
| 03:58 | <ternarybit> Very interesting indeed.
| |
| 03:59 | So If, somehow, I was able to get Debian joined to AD and synced with the user accounts via samba4, I could then install LTSP and potentially have all my users straight away
| |
| 03:59 | <vagrantc> maybe.
| |
| 03:59 | they *are* computers, something is bound to go wrong. :)
| |
| 04:04 | <ternarybit> You're kidding, right? :P
| |
| 04:05 | well thank you all very much. Enjoy your evening :)

| 04:25 | <alkisg> vagrantc: gbit did translate https://translations.launchpad.net/ltsp/ldm-trunk/+pots/ldm/pt_BR/+translate, but his translations need reviewing...
| |
| 04:25 | I'm not sure if he can review them himself, if we can/should do it, or if we should let someone from his loco team do it...
| |
| 04:26 | * vagrantc doesn't know either | |
| 04:27 | <vagrantc> any brazilian portuguese speakers available to review ltsp related translations?
| |
| 04:28 | <alkisg> Hmm on second look, the translation suggestions are by "André Gondim on 2009-01-28", years ago, I suppose he's not gbit...
| |
| 04:30 | <vagrantc> heh
| |
| 04:30 | <alkisg> Maybe he downloaded the .po and he did them locally...
| |
| 04:30 | <vagrantc> oh.
| |
| 04:34 | <alkisg> Or maybe he only translated the ltsp.po, 5 hours ago... https://translations.launchpad.net/ltsp/ltsp-trunk/+pots/ltsp-login/pt_BR/+filter?person=gb-7
| |
| 04:36 | <vagrantc> alkisg: would be good to allow whatever translations in that have been reviewed
| |
| 04:37 | i'm really hopeing to tag and upload this weekend.
| |
| 04:38 | <alkisg> I can enable "translation commits" again today if we want it... it should then pushed whatever's have been reviewed
| |
| 04:40 | * alkisg wanted to do the "user pulseaudio" commit yesterday, but it wouldn't launch... I saw some symlink issues from /home/username/.pulse/* to /tmp/pulse*, due to SSH_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS=false for /home, but it wouldn't launch even with HOME=/tmp/user start-pulseaudio-x11, maybe it has dbus issues... | |

| 05:06 | <alkisg> vagrantc: should I enable translation commits for both ldm and ltsp? Are you going to upload both?
| |
| 05:08 | Whoops, ldm translation commits were enabled already
| |
| 05:08 | ...hence the last 50 commits :
| |
| 05:09 | OK, I enabled ltsp commits too, ping me to disable them when you upload
| |
| 05:10 | <vagrantc> alkisg: does it essentially queue up changes?
| |
| 05:10 | <alkisg> Yes
| |
| 05:11 | alexqwesa has joined IRC (alexqwesa!~alex@109.172.12.47) | |
| 05:11 | <alkisg> So if we enable them 1 day before releases, and disable them afterwards, we're ok
| |
| 05:11 | * vagrantc wonders about a cron job that enables it for maybe 1 hour per day or something. | |
| 05:11 | <alkisg> That would then do daily commits to trunk, we wouldn't want that until we fix the ldm.pot bug
| |
| 05:11 | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/1112122
| |
| 05:14 | <vagrantc> ideally, i would like to batch commits weekly by default or something.
| |
| 05:14 | anyways...
| |
| 05:14 | * alkisg would like daily commits whenever there are actual changes | |
| 05:15 | <alkisg> That would be the default once our intltool/ldm.pot is addressed
| |
| 05:15 | *bug
| |
| 05:17 | <vagrantc> ltsp is fine?
| |
| 05:17 | <alkisg> Yes
| |
| 05:17 | <vagrantc> but we've disabled them?
| |
| 05:18 | <alkisg> Let me look at the ltsp translations commits before I disabled them...
| |
| 05:18 | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ltsp-upstream/ltsp/ltsp-trunk/changes
| |
| 05:18 | They appear to be OK, maybe we can always have them enabled...

| 05:59 | <karan_> hello everybody
| |
| 06:01 | is there another device that is connected to clients
| |
| 06:01 | <vagrantc> are you asking how to access devices conected to clients?
| |
| 06:02 | <karan_> how devices are connected to ltps server
| |
| 06:02 | through switch
| |
| 06:04 | <vagrantc> thin clients?
| |
| 06:04 | <karan_> are these are extra hardware
| |
| 06:04 | <vagrantc> yeah, the thin clients are connected to the server through an ethernet network
| |
| 06:04 | which is usually a switch
| |
| 06:04 | <karan_> how much these devices cost
| |
| 06:05 | <vagrantc> it depends... you can buy fancy new ones for hundreds of dollars, or use old recycled computers for free...
| |
| 06:05 | although older computers tend to use more electricity
| |
| 06:06 | <karan_> can you exactly explain to me with diagram if possible.......
| |
| 06:06 | <vagrantc> !ltsp-docs
| |
| 06:06 | <ltsp`> Error: "ltsp-docs" is not a valid command.

| |
| 06:06 | <karan_> can you also tell me vendors name, from whom we can borrow these devices
| |
| 06:07 | <vagrantc> karan_: http://wiki.ltsp.org/wiki/Concepts
| |
| 06:09 | karan_: disklessworkstations.com
| |
| 06:09 | <karan_> im from india
| |
| 06:12 | <vagrantc> karan_: i don't know a vendor in india specifically
| |
| 06:14 | <karan_> k...
| |
| 06:15 | it is better to use thin client
| |
| 06:15 | how much does it cost from diskless
| |
| 06:19 | <vagrantc> you'll have to ask them.

| |
| 10:44 | <alkisg> gbit: you didn't translate ldm :)
| |
| 10:44 | You only suggested a few ltsp translations
| |
| 10:44 | You didn't review them so they're not even committed
| |
| 10:44 | Let me help you a bit...
| |

| |
| 10:45 | <gbit> Oh sorry, I will check it
| |
| 10:45 | <alkisg> Go there, and *review* all translations
| |
| 10:45 | So that it's all green, not red
| |
| 10:45 | Then ping me to continue with the next step
| |
| 10:45 | <gbit> OK I did the login part only
| |
| 10:45 | got it

| |
| 11:06 | <alkisg> gbit: nice, now, can you also do this? https://translations.launchpad.net/ltsp/ltsp-trunk/+lang/pt_BR
| |
| 11:06 | <gbit> Sure
| |
| 11:07 | <alkisg> Then on the next commit you can get the ldm.po and ltsp.po files, i.e. tomorrow, if you're not in a hurry

| 11:44 | There's 1 suggestion left
| |
| 11:44 | Tomorrow you'll be able to download the .po files from http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ltsp-upstream/ltsp/ltsp-trunk/files/head:/po/
| |
| 11:45 | <gbit> OK it's done, sorry for that
| |
| 11:45 | <alkisg> ...and from http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ltsp-upstream/ltsp/ldm-trunk/files/head:/po/
| |
| 11:46 | <gbit> OK than I should copy it and rebuild ltsp?
| |
| 11:46 | <alkisg> Then you copy them to /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES, yeah
| |
| 11:46 | <gbit> ok thank you again

| 17:04 | <vagrantc> gbit: password expiry is a known bug that is very hard to fix the way LDM currenty works
| |
| 17:04 | gbit: we're working on an alternative that should help with LTSP6
| |
| 17:05 | * alkisg is trying to troubleshoot the issue with ldm.pot being regenerated on each build, instead of only when there are actual changes, does anyone know what generate_locale_list.py is for? | |
| 17:06 | <gbit> vagrantc: great, the only solution that I found, was to have ssh on another screen, then user can log in, change password and come back to the graphical screen again.
| |
| 17:07 | <vagrantc> gbit: on the LTSP server i've set up some pop-up warnings at login that warn about upcoming password expiry
| |
| 17:08 | <gbit> vagrantc: can you give me a clue?
| |
| 17:11 | <vagrantc> alkisg: it generates a list of valid locales at build time... i don't exactly remember why
| |
| 17:11 | alkisg: ah, it is used to display the locales in the LDM drop-down menu
| |
| 17:12 | <alkisg> Ah ok, unrelated to the .po files then, nice
| |
| 17:12 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i.e. en_US -> English (United States)

| |
| 17:23 | <gbit> vagrantc: how to make the pop-ups
| |
| 17:24 | <vagrantc> gbit: i put a file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ using zenity or gdialog that checks how soon it will expire and gives them a warning, and reduced the warntime to nothing
| |

| 17:32 | * alkisg wonders if we should just remove ldm.pot from the source tree, since intltool regenerates it and deletes it on each build | |
| 17:33 | <alkisg> And if that would fix the launchpad daily commits issue...
| |
| 17:33 | <vagrantc> i guess that would work.
| |
| 17:34 | i think we left it in the tree for translators to have something to work with, but since launchpad handles it now...
| |
| 17:34 | <alkisg> For translators, the last message here lists the needed commands: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.linux.openinkpot.devel/305
| |
| 17:35 | OK, I'll remove it, wait a couple of days to see if that fixes the launchpad issue, and if not, we can revert it...
| |
| 17:36 | Meh removing ldm.pot breaks debuild -b -tc somehow...
| |
| 17:37 | Sorry false alarm, I linked to ltsp-debian-packaging instead of ldm-debian-packaging :D
| |
| 17:38 | <bennabiy> alkisg or vagrantc: is run-parts being use to iterate the ltsp-build-client?

| |
| 19:35 | <alkisg> bennabiy: first, cat | while read var has an issue which you might not be aware of,
| |
| 19:36 | <bennabiy> not exporting variables?
| |
| 19:36 | <alkisg> the commands at the right side of the pipe run in a subshell, so the variable values are only valid until the end of the loop
| |
| 19:36 | <bennabiy> yes. That is the hope
| |
| 19:36 | <alkisg> Now, for a better code,
| |
| 19:37 | while IFS=: read v1 v2 v3 v4; do
| |
| 19:37 | commands
| |
| 19:37 | done < "$config_file"
| |
| 19:38 | <bennabiy> great...
| |
| 19:41 | so that will read each line and assign variables for eachfield in the line, do the commands on those variables, and then get the next line of code to run commands on?
| |
| 19:41 | <alkisg> The next line of the file, yes
| |
| 19:42 | <bennabiy> thank you so much alkisg
| |
| 19:42 | <alkisg> np
| |
| 19:42 | <bennabiy> I guess it is lest costly as well because of no awk calls
| |
| 19:42 | willianmazzardo has left IRC (willianmazzardo!~textual@187.4.15.116, Quit: Textual IRC Client: http://www.textualapp.com/) | |
| 19:43 | <alkisg> No awk and no cat
| |
| 19:43 | <bennabiy> yes
| |
| 19:43 | <alkisg> So no external programs at all
| |
| 19:43 | (except for the commands, of course)
| |
| 19:43 | <bennabiy> so, which ate which.. did the 'awk swoop down on the cat, or did the cat pounce on the 'awk
| |
| 19:44 | either way, they both die()
| |
| 19:44 | <alkisg> Heh
| |
| 19:54 | <bennabiy> alkisg: Would that IFS change affect fields being passed to functions within that loop?
| |
| 19:54 | <alkisg> no, it only affects the "read" command
| |
| 19:54 | <bennabiy> thought so
| |
| 19:54 | ok
| |
| 19:57 | you can unset multiple variables by spacing them right? unset VAR1 Var2 etc
| |
| 19:57 | <alkisg> man sh and search for unset ;)
| |
| 19:57 | (answer: yes)
| |
| 19:58 | * bennabiy does man alkisg search | |
| 19:58 | <alkisg> Hehe
| |
| 19:58 | You can also keep the `cat file | while` construct if you care so much about the variables
| |
| 19:58 | That way you don't need to care if the variables had a previous value that you overwrote...
| |
| 19:58 | <bennabiy> I have been staring at man pages and code so much , it is nice to just get an answer :)
| |
| 19:59 | It is just for the end of the program
| |
| 20:02 | If I have a variable in my shell, and then start a function, it can see those variables still, right?
| |
| 20:02 | for example, if there was a read -p "blah?"
| |
| 20:03 | <alkisg> Yup
| |
| 20:03 | <bennabiy> would $REPLY be readable in the function, or would I need to call the function and reset it like my_function $REPLY
| |
| 20:03 | My brain is fritzed right now, but I need to get this done within the hour :)
| |
| 20:05 | It is just variables the other direction, right? Like in my function, whatever is set in that, only exists within that function?
| |
| 20:05 | <vagrantc> alkisg, phantomas: i'd like to get epoptes in too this weekend
| |
| 20:05 | <alkisg> bennabiy: There's no visibility, scopes etc in shell, everything is global, unless of course if you have a subshell, $(), | etc
| |
| 20:05 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i don't think phantomas can upload without a sponsor
| |
| 20:06 | <alkisg> vagrantc: cool, both me and Phantomas will be around
| |
| 20:06 | We just need the release commit, otherwise everything is tested
| |
| 20:06 | (i.e. change the version)
| |
| 20:06 | <vagrantc> ok.
| |
| 20:07 | alkisg: if i sign the upload, i'll want to test it myself, at least ... maybe epoptes will be the first thing i upload.
| |
| 20:07 | * alkisg is testing the user pulseaudio thing, hoping he might be able to commit that before vagrantc uploads ltsp... | |
| 20:17 | <alkisg> Hmm it works if I add the user to the audio group, but we shouldn't have to... I wonder if it has to do with "policykit active seats" etc...

| |
| 20:43 | PULSE_RUNTIME_PATH could be the solution
