(11:30:26 μμ) unkmar: the local extra thing appears to share static files. Users can modify but it isn't reflected back to the system.

==> you did something wrong there then

hey
06:50
i've a question
06:51
I have a ltsp server ubuntu 10.04 lts. and 100 customers, unfortunately there is no sound on stations
06:53gbaman has joined IRC (gbaman!~gbaman@host81-130-114-35.in-addr.btopenworld.com)
06:53
<work_alkisg>
There never was?
06:55
<roces4>
never
06:56
stations are redirected to windows 7 and are they logging into domain, I don't know whether it is necessary to place globally on the server?
06:56
i've to have sound on workstations
06:57
<work_alkisg>
If you're using xfreerdp, you should mention it :)
06:57
With xfreerdp, you might be missing some sound option
06:57
With pulseaudio, it's a different story
06:58gbaman has left IRC (gbaman!~gbaman@host81-130-114-35.in-addr.btopenworld.com, Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
06:58
<roces4>
that is I must install on the server pulseaudio?
06:58
<work_alkisg>
No
06:58
Paste your lts.conf to pastebin
07:00
<roces4>
in the lts.conf file I have poprostu addresses written down local_apps = true screen_ 01 = rdesktop - f tc-lic.omnis.org
07:00
ok moment
07:04
[default] LDM_AUTOLOGIN = true DNS_SERVE = 17.16.1.230 LDM_DEBUG_TERMINAL = false LOCAL_APPS = true LOCAL_APPS = rdesktop, xterm SCREEN_01 = " rdesktop -f tc-vlic.omnis.org" [00:19:db:2f:f3:b8] LDM_USERNAME = test LDM_PASSWORD = test1
07:05
<work_alkisg>
You need rdesktop *and* localapps? Are you sure?
07:06
<roces4>
He only needs rdesktop and sound on stations, so what I must mend
07:09
I mean only so that sound is moved through rdesktop
07:09
<work_alkisg>
You need something like "-r sound:local", check the rdesktop man page
07:11
<roces4>
please help me
07:11
:)
07:11
<work_alkisg>
No, read the manual
07:11
Or ask in the rdesktop mailing list :)
07:11
Or use google!
07:12
It's just 1 parameter, you don't need IRC for that...
07:12gbaman has joined IRC (gbaman!~gbaman@host81-130-114-35.in-addr.btopenworld.com)
07:12
<roces4>
that is I understand around parameter to rdesktop must I add? and to remove localapps?
07:12
<work_alkisg>
You need to add a parameter to rdesktop, yes
07:13
You don't need LOCAL_APPS but it doesn't hurt either
07:13
<roces4>
ltsp-build-client after or no?
07:14
<work_alkisg>
No
07:14
<roces4>
only modify lts.conf and this all
07:14
to add only this 1 parameter this way?
07:14
<work_alkisg>
Yes
07:18
<roces4>
SCREEN_01 = "rdesktop -f -r sound:local tc-vlic.omnis.org" ?
07:18
?
07:18
<work_alkisg>
Don't use SCREEN_01 it's reserved for boot messages, use SCREEN_07= instead
07:20
<roces4>
but I have 2 servers with 2 addresses: in the lts.conf file SCREEN_ 02 = "rdesktop - f ts-vlib.omnis.org" SCREEN_ 01 = "rdesktop - f ts-cen.omnis.org"
07:21
<work_alkisg>
You didn't paste that, you only pasted SCREEN_01 when I asked your lts.conf
07:21
Use SCREEN_07 and SCREEN_08
07:21
<roces4>
ok
07:23
ok I will exchange on 07 but whether this parameter well napisalem? SCREEN_ 07 = "rdesktop - f - r sound: local ts-lib.omnis.org" SCREEN_ 08 = "rdesktop - f - r sound: local ts-cen.omnis.org" Is it this way correctly?
07:23
<work_alkisg>
Did you read the rdesktop man page?
07:23
<roces4>
tak
07:23
yes
07:23
<work_alkisg>
OK, whatever it writes there
07:24
It's not LTSP-specific
07:25
<roces4>
to put where I have this parameter?: (
07:27
[Default] SCREEN_07 = rdesktop RDP_SERVER = ts-lib.omnis.org RDP_OPTIONS = "-r sound:local"

Note that you have spaces in the options above, "- r" is "minus" "space" "r", so it won't work if you don't remove the space

alkisg_web, hi... any idea how Ubuntu 14.04 would work with LTSP thin clients? :)
10:33
Mainly curious about the desktop bits... newer version of Gnome, Unity, etc...
10:33
Would Gnome classic work as expected? :)
10:42
<ogra_>
14.04 only had polishing changes to Unity ... should work/not work the same as 13.10 did
10:43
(or 13.04 .... there were no bigger changes between 13.04 and 13.10 either)

Hi guys i've installed ltsp server with 60 linutop station , my problem when i restart the linutop the old sessions LTSP-CLIENT instances are not killed automatically
10:51
<Hyperbyte>
ogra_, I never tried anything past 12.04.
10:51
I'm mainly curious between differences between 12.04 and 14.04, but can't find much info on it
10:52
<ogra_>
well, i have no clue if unity works at all ... thats why i said "working/non working" :)
10:52
but i know there were no major code changes since 13.904
10:52
err
10:52
13.04
10:52
(and there wont be until it switches to unity8/Mir)
10:58
<Hyperbyte>
I actually don't like Unity, nor does it work with non compositing hardware or via remote X (or any combination of the two or whatever - not sure)
10:58
Point it doesn't work, which is fine because I couldn't care much less about Unity. I'm more curious if the Gnome Classic desktop in 14.04 still supports non compositing hardware.
11:04* ogra_ has no idea about Gnome .... havent used it since it got unusable UI changes :P
11:09
<Hyperbyte>
What are those?
11:13
<ogra_>
Gnome 3
11:13
i find it unusable
11:14
and completely unintuitive
11:16
(i must admit i havent tired any recent versions, might have gotten better .... but i doubt it will speed up my productivity like unity does)
11:24
<Hyperbyte>
No, I mean, why do you find that?
11:24
I find the difference between Gnome 2 and Gnome 3 fallback are quite minimal.
11:24
Well, dconf instead of gconf, but that I actually like, a lot.
11:25
<ogra_>
ah, yeah, not talking about fallback :)
11:25
<Hyperbyte>
I'm looking into using 14.04 with Gnome Classic, obviously. ;-)
11:26
That, or MATE.
11:26
<ogra_>
well, that should still work the same i suppose (until they switch to wayland which has no networking opportunities)
11:26
<Hyperbyte>
But preferably the newest Gnome in classic mode.
11:26
Right, how's LTSP going to cope with Wayland, if at all?
11:26
<ogra_>
no idea, might have to use Mir :P
11:27
(which just got screencast capabilities a few weeks ago)
11:28
<Hyperbyte>
So SSH X11 forwarding isn't possible anymore with Wayland?
11:28
<ogra_>
nor with Mir ... right
11:29
<Hyperbyte>
That would suck insanely.
11:29
<ogra_>
they are both not network aware
11:29
by design
11:29
but as i said, Mir just got screencast support ... aournd that one could build some network forwarder
11:30
<Hyperbyte>
I use X11 forwarding to run graphical applications on remote servers in my local desktop. Administration tools on dedicated servers, for example.
11:30
<ogra_>
(i suppose wayland will get such a feature as well at some point)
11:30
<Hyperbyte>
It must!
11:30
Else I'm selling my PC and buying an iPad.
11:31
<ogra_>
well, the design doesnt plan for something like that
11:31
<Hyperbyte>
Well no I'm not. But it'd suck. :P
11:31
<ogra_>
(but the Mir design didnt plan for it either and it still got it ... Mir is simply developer at a much faster speed atm, since it has a huge amount of fulltime devs working on it)
11:32
*developed
11:39
<Hyperbyte>
I haven't heard much about Mir.
11:40
<ogra_>
its the default display server on the ubuntu phone/tablet images ... and 14.04 has an experimental desktop session (with the phone UI though, since there is no desktop one yet)
11:41
<alkisg_web>
Hyperbyte: gnome-flashback was in a bad state and too few people were actually interested in making it better,
11:42
<ogra_>
alkisg_web, oh, was it dropped ?
11:42
<alkisg_web>
fortunately now it's pretty much OK except for a few issues caused by Ubuntu
11:42
<Hyperbyte>
ogra_, mmm..... I know Fedora's anxious to switch to Wayland.
11:42
<ogra_>
there is a mate-desktop metapackage in ubuntu though
11:42
<Hyperbyte>
alkisg_web, what kind of issues?
11:43
<alkisg_web>
E.g. Unity introduced an indicator-complete applet and it's only maintained for unity itself, but they say gnome-fallback has to use it in ubuntu, so some applets are broken
11:43
Like e.g. the keyboard layout indicator
11:44
So we'll have many complains from schools because keyboard layout switching won't work properly anymore...
11:46
<ogra_>
did you try with the ubuntu-gnome stuff instead ? i dont think the gnome guys actually use indicators on their CD
11:46
(though i dont think they focus on flashback at all)
11:47
<alkisg_web>
Ubuntu-gnome doesn't work properly over network (gnome classic)
11:47
<ogra_>
bah
11:48
how about mate ?
11:48
to immature yet ?
11:48
<alkisg_web>
Mate should be fine, being gnome2-like
11:48
Its packaging is not ready yet
11:48
<ogra_>
oh, i thought it was
11:48
thats sad
11:48
<alkisg_web>
Nah, it's expected for jessie
11:49
So my plan for schools here is 14.04 with gnome-flashback, if the keyboard indicator issue is solved, and then jessie with mate
11:50
<ogra_>
well, i see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/mate-desktop/1.6.1-3 in trusty
11:50
<alkisg_web>
It's a dummy package, vagrantc already complained about that but they replied it's ...by design for now
11:51
<ogra_>
bah, silly
11:51
<alkisg_web>
vagrantc was very disappointed by their response to that
11:51
<ogra_>
yeah, i can understand
11:51* ogra_ only sees such stuff pass by on the trusty-changes ML ...
11:51
<ogra_>
i dont have much time nowadays to look at desktop stuff
11:52
<alkisg_web>
It's nice that ubuntu focuses on tablets and phones, but I'd prefer it if they minimized their diff with debian now that they don't have the resources to maintain it properly

Hi, I have got a question. I use ltsp at school and everything is working fine. I just wonder, if I could produce a live-usb-stick from the nbd image and the kernel at var/lib.../i368, so that my student could use this at home as well. has anyone done this before?

gymbuntu, you're using fat clients I assume?
13:18
<gymbuntu>
yes, thats true, i use fatclients and the only thing I really need beside the nbd image and the kernel is a /home/ workaround...

... but an empty /home/ would be fine, as we have a school-cloud and can access it with webdav from anywhere. The nbd provides using the webdav in nautilus anyway.

<ltsp>
local-boot: If you want LTSP fat clients on a low-speed network, you can put i386.img on e.g. C:\Boot\LTSP\i386.img and use this command line in pxelinux.cfg: APPEND ro initrd=ltsp/i386/initrd.img init=/sbin/init-ltsp root=/dev/sda1 rootflags=ro loop=/Boot/LTSP/i386.img; IPAPPEND 3
13:29
<alkisg>
..similar, in grub
13:37
<gymbuntu>
this easy? great. ok. but this still trys to mount the /home/, doesn't it? And next step: how to create an bootable usb-stick from that?
13:37
<alkisg>
grub2 supports booting from squashfs
13:40
<gymbuntu>
so i would make a directory, put kernel and image inside, make a squashfs from this und put the squashfs on a stick and then place a grub2 onto the stick
13:40
is that right?
13:49
<alkisg>
kernel+initrd can be inside the squashfs image with grub2
13:49
For grub 1.99-, you need them in a separate dir

Hello all
16:07
<Hyperbyte>
Huwwo!
16:08
<DZII>
for a 12.04 64bit lts install does the network cards need to be built in to the motherboard I have done the quick install and it does not work out of the box as it says
16:11
<Hyperbyte>
It shouldn't matter if nics are on onboard or pci
16:12
As long as they're detected by the OS.
16:15
<DZII>
thats what i thought and yes they are detected by OS but still nothing when i try to boot thin client
16:16
<unkmar>
hey
16:16
<DZII>
so the steps on ubuntu quick install guide is all i have to do ? I am using the Alternate install CD
16:17
<unkmar>
so, um. How might I alter the fat client to sshfs mount /home instead of /home/luser
16:25
<alkisg_web>
unkmar: why not use NFS then/
16:25
?
16:25
With lts.conf => FSTAB_0

16:40
<unkmar>
alkisg_web: sync. I think I tried FSTAB_O and it was one way. Copied from the server to the client and then not synced back. I will attempt again.
16:42
<alkisg_web>
Both NFS and SSHFS are network file systems, their only job is to show you synced stuff
16:42
If they didn't, you probably did something wrong
16:42
<unkmar>
no, I tried FSTAB_0 with a null effect. Nothing appeared to have changed.
16:42
<alkisg_web>
Did you enable nfs on the server?
16:42
<unkmar>
so, yeah, I need to give it another try with a neutral location.
16:43
I forgot, my setup is different from what most appear to do and I still don't understand why my particuar base setup isn't the norm.
16:44
My ltsp server is NOT my DHCP server.
16:49
<alkisg_web>
It doesn't matter wrt home
16:50
I think most people don't have dhcp server == ltsp server nowadays, with ltsp-pnp, proxydhcp etc
16:50
<unkmar>
I guess I didn't enable NFS because I'm not sure how or where to check.
16:51
Most people have a separate office/home router. Many are configurable to redirect the PXE boot protocol so...
16:52
And those that are going to setup LTSP would likely already have all sorts of static IP's and port forwarding setup on said router LONG before LTSP was considered.
16:52
but, I digress. Back to my issue, How, where NFS setup?
16:53
<alkisg_web>
!proxydhcp
16:53
<ltsp>
proxydhcp: A proxy DHCP server is defined by the PXE specification as a server which sends auxiliary boot information to clients, like the boot filename, tftp server or rootpath, but leaves the task of IP leasing to the normal DHCP server. More info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP
16:53
<alkisg_web>
That solves all the DHCP problems you mentioned
16:53
To setup NFS, google. :)

alkisg_web: I have exports and that works. does that mean I have nfs running?
17:04
<alkisg_web>
Try to mount nfs from some client. Non-ltsp if it helps you.
17:04
If you can mount nfs manually, then you have nfs running...
17:11
<unkmar>
sounds like, back to exports, where I started.
17:11
<alkisg_web>
If you want the whole /home, yeah. If you want /home/Share, then you can do that with sshfs extra mounts...
17:12
<unkmar>
alkisg_web: would would I do the extra mount, cause that is a cleaner solution.
17:12
*how.

17:12
!lts.conf
17:12

lts.conf: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/lts.conf
17:13
<alkisg_web>
Check LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS.
17:13
<unkmar>
yeah, that didn't sync back. that didn't work.
17:13
<alkisg_web>
You didn't do it correctly then
17:13
<unkmar>
it effectively exported data from the server to the client and didn't update back to the server.
17:14
<alkisg_web>
Nah
17:14
You did it wrong
17:14
SSHFS doesn't copy things
17:14
It exports a directory, it's not rsync
17:14
So what you're saying doesn't even make sense...
17:16
<unkmar>
I feel for you. I know how frustrating I must be. I keep missing the required parts and I'm incredibly frustrated. but from angle, its like talking to an idiot. I know, I've been there. I'm so sorry.
17:16
*from your angle.

no sound on client :( why
17:53
<unkmar>
so, I used LOCAL_MEDIA=True Which I assume uses sshfs. After booting I see /media emtpy. On server I created a media/shared directory with chmod 777 permissions and see it immediately from the client. On the client I run touch myself. File is created and visible to the client. Not seen in the respective location on the server.
17:53
If I reboot the client, the fill will be gone. :(

<pmatulis>
what protocol/method is used again for mounting user home directories on the server?
17:55
<unkmar>
pmatulis: if doing fat client, then it is sshfs.
17:56
<pmatulis>
unkmar: ah sshfs sounds familiar, but i never used fat clients. what about standard thin clients? not the same?
17:57
<unkmar>
pmatulis: I don't know that thin clients have there own user space on the server. They are more like a BOOT CD. All is lost during reboot.
17:58
<pmatulis>
unkmar: that's new, not the way i remember a few years back. anyway, i believe sshfs is what i'm after. thanks
17:58
<unkmar>
pmatulis: I think that is the defination differences between thin and fat clients.
17:59
pmatulis: I've only had this running about 8 months. I'm not one of the resident experts.
17:59
Got it up, running, then just walked away and let it run. :)
17:59
<pmatulis>
unkmar: fat clients used to mean they did more processing. usually running a browser and few other popular apps locally
17:59
(instead of on the server)
18:00
<unkmar>
Ah, maybe that is the case. Again, been awhile for me.
18:00
<pmatulis>
unkmar: ciao
18:01
<unkmar>
sshfs makes use of fuse. They tend to go hand in hand. fuse can be used with other Network file systems as well. such as samba.
18:02
<pmatulis>
unkmar: correct, but what are you getting at?

just being as complete in information as might be neccessary.

Pastebin the lts.conf you're using for sshfs extra mounts

ah, finally, something that works.
18:50
okay, the description of what I have working. I created /media/share on the server. /media/share is set to a group of which all my users are in. chmod 775 /media/share. And last lts.conf contains LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/media/share
18:51
I think I'm still missing gid for all my users so that the file creations are of the proper group. I'll look at that now.

I have a load of axel platine thin clients they seem to be able to work with pxe so will they work with ltsp
19:46

Most likely. I'm not sure what an axel platine is.
19:47
<jonnyf1ve>
axel ax3000 terminal
19:48
dose ltsp have to run as a dhcp host as these terminals already have a session configured on a unix server with a static ip I was goibg to configure a second session for ltsp
19:49
<unkmar>
no, I'm not running ltsp as a dhcp host.
19:50
<jonnyf1ve>
oh ok I thought it had to be dhcp host for pxe to boot so in theory I just install ltsp distro and point my thin clients at it set as pxe boot
19:51
<unkmar>
the dhcp server must point to the ltsp server for booting.

19:53
<jonnyf1ve>
are ok there is no dhcp on the current network
19:53
<unkmar>
the dhcp server and pxe boot server can be on different ips's. since the dhcp tells the client ip and path of the pxe boot file.
19:53
jonnyf1ve: you are running all static ips?
19:53
That must to be a pain to maintain.
19:56
<||cw>
jonnyf1ve: can they run linux?
19:57
<jonnyf1ve>
its currently a pos system running accounts and sales in sco unix. the last guy set all statics I dont know why
19:57
no they are juat purely thin clients
19:57
<||cw>
then ltsp won't really help.
19:58
I mean, I'm sure you can get their X11 support to work with an ltsp server, but the ltsp bits won't actually be doing much
19:59
ltsp is strongest at using any ol' pc diskless as a thin client, or a decent pc as a fat client
20:00
<jonnyf1ve>
they work with rdp in windows and vnc. I just wanna give each workstation a desktop and internet ect
20:07
<||cw>
so, what exactly gets PXE'd on these? a config file?
