| |
| 11:19 | alkisg has joined IRC (alkisg!~Thunderbi@ubuntu/member/alkisg) | |
| 11:25 | <alkisg> zChris: hi, it's the same as without LTSP. I.e. ask in your distribution channel about "wine"

| 11:37 | <metal-machine> Hi, My thin-client is not able to login. I am using AMD-64 for root and i386 for Application server.
| |
| 11:37 | <alkisg> All thin clients are not able to login, or just one?
| |
| 11:38 | And, which desktop environment are you using
| |
| 11:38 | ?
| |
| 11:38 | <metal-machine> Lxde
| |
| 11:38 | <alkisg> ...and which distribution...
| |
| 11:38 | <metal-machine> Debian
| |
| 11:38 | <alkisg> Wheezy?
| |
| 11:38 | <metal-machine> yes debian wheezy
| |
| 11:38 | and usind ltsp-server-standalone package
| |
| 11:39 | <alkisg> The problem is the session command, what's the output of this? grep -r ^Exec /usr/share/xsessions/
| |
| 11:40 | <metal-machine> I am on remote location, It will take 5 mintues to me to get reply
| |
| 11:40 | is that fine for you?
| |
| 11:40 | <alkisg> ok, i'll disconnect for a while but i'll see your command, do paste it

| |
| 17:35 | It is from this site (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ltsp-pnp) and involves the use of a single nic and routes the internet and ltsp simultaneously through the router.....cont...
| |
| 17:36 | absolutely briliant! Clinets running perfectly and perfect full screen streaming viedo to all clients. took all of 10 minutes to install and setup. .....absolutely incredible!!!!
| |
| 17:38 | I can now promote this with confidence to an educational institution I work in. Thank you so much to the LTSP team

| |
| 18:25 | <stevecook> message to alskig.........PNP LTSP worked....you are a scholar and a gentleman! took ten mins to install and all clients running video at fullscreen perfectly with no connection issues or, indeed, any other issues. Thankyou!

| 18:25 | or a gentlewoman....sorry for any inadevertant sexism
| |
| 18:29 | <cliebow> np..alkisg is Alkis Georgeopoulos.
| |
| 18:30 | <alkisg> stevecook: you're welcome, it was fun developing it with all the team here ;)

| |
| 18:31 | <vagrantc> stevecook: where's your area?
| |
| 18:32 | alkisg: met with someone from the local schools the other day using LTSP; wants to get it used more widely in the local schools and was pretty inspired by what you've done!
| |
| 18:33 | <alkisg> Cool! /me hopes someone will be interested in helping to internationalize sch-scripts...
| |
| 18:33 | This really automates installations, even non IT teachers can maintain pc labs with them
| |
| 18:34 | sch-scripts do have some dark areas wrt debian policy though, hard to upstream it to debian
| |
| 18:34 | <vagrantc> alkisg: so a big part of what makes it work is sch-scripts?
| |
| 18:35 | mangling config files and such?
| |
| 18:35 | <alkisg> Yes, sch-scripts basically stands for "do whatever the teachers need to do automatically, or offer them a gui"
| |
| 18:35 | <vagrantc> you can mangle configuration files with helper utilities (e.g. ltsp-config, puppet, etc.) but running the helper utilities automatically is a problem.
| |
| 18:35 | <cliebow> Sob!!! I cant be on the map..since i ve lost all my labs.
| |
| 18:35 | <alkisg> dependencies (gnome-flashback), gsettings, config files, gui for user management, gui for setting up a network connection with nat...
| |
| 18:36 | So basically the guide says, install ubuntu from our own live cd, and then run this command to make your installation a "server"
| |
| 18:36 | <vagrantc> none of that actually sounds policy-violating if the admin runs it manually
| |
| 18:37 | <alkisg> Yes, if we were to upstream it we'd need to run those in a "setup wizard", after postinst
| |
| 18:37 | <vagrantc> ah, but you run them in postinst?
| |
| 18:37 | <alkisg> Some things run even before sch-scripts is installed (adding our repositories etc
| |
| 18:38 | we have something like `wget our installation script and run it`
| |
| 18:38 | We'll slowlly move things to packages, e.g. sch-keyring and such
| |
| 18:38 | One good part is our user management interface, we should definately internationalize this, it allows mass user creation with shared folders etc
| |
| 18:39 | Ideal for schools
| |
| 18:39 | Something like this: http://dide.sam.sch.gr/keplinet/images/article-images/ltsp_15.png
| |
| 18:39 | The teacher just mentions his classes and the number of pcs in his lab
| |
| 18:40 | Or, we also have a signup feature in ldm
| |
| 18:41 | <cliebow> there are some issues with the map..Indonesia is out in the middle of the Atlantic

| 19:52 | <stevecook> Hi vagrantc. I am in york in the Uk
| |
| 19:55 | <vagrantc> i think the person who implemented the pi-ltsp stuff is in the UK, no idea how close to york
| |
| 20:01 | <stevecook> I am so happy with this setup, it runs fullscreen vid perfectly and does not require a user to manually connect to the internet on each session. The only tiny niggle rmeaining is finding a way for the unlock function to recognise the user password or, failing that, how to disable lockscreen. any advice gratefully recieved

| 20:07 | <metal-machine> Hey I want to confirm one thing. Do we create thinclient- users in Application server or in root server?
| |
| 20:09 | IMHO it is in application server. Please correct me is I am wrong?
| |
| 20:15 | [OpenOffice] has joined IRC ([OpenOffice]!~Admin@120.168.1.128) | |
| 20:29 | <stevecook> vagrantc: raspberry pi are near blackpool. A hundred and ten miles or so from me. Just took a look at their vid on youtube. Very nice project to understand the power of linux and ltsp for the kids.
