<N0rbert>
Hello! I'm running LTSP5 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Debian 10 Buster. I have a question. Is it intentional that Epoptes do not show previews on Debian?
10:16
<alkisg>
N0rbert: hi, no, that means that your "session epoptes-client" isn't running, while the "root epoptes-client" is running
10:16
Is it fat clients or thin clients?
10:17
<N0rbert>
Clients are fat.
10:18
<alkisg>
N0rbert: I was about to leave, do you want to share your screen with me so that we can resolve the issue quickly?
10:19
<N0rbert>
I'm not sure how to share screen using Matrix.
10:19
<alkisg>
!vnc-edide
10:19
<ltspbot>
vnc-edide: To share your screen with me, open Epoptes → Help menu → Remote support → Host: srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr, and click the Connect button
10:19
<alkisg>
Matrix isn't involved, just do that ^ step on your server
10:20
<N0rbert>
I see. Will now boot to Debian LTSP server.
10:20
<alkisg>
We'll need an ltsp client booted as well, in order to see why it's not sending the thumbshot
10:24
N0rbert: you have an ancient version and you're also missing the notification daemon
10:24
Install the latest version from the epoptes ppa (in the image as well), then run ltsp-update-image etc etc, and at that point ping me again
10:25
<N0rbert>
It warns us about gettext, may this be an issue?
10:25
<alkisg>
No the problem is that it's missing the notification daemon
10:25
<N0rbert>
Which PPA should I use for Debian Buster?
10:26
<alkisg>
https://epoptes.org/documentation/ppa/ https://launchpad.net/~epoptes/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
10:26
<N0rbert>
Ok. I'll try. Thanks for assistance. I appreciate it.
10:27
<alkisg>
Did you install it with --no-install-recommends?
10:27
If so, don't use that, it's only for console epoptes, not graphical epoptes
10:27
Leaving, back in an hour or so
10:27
<N0rbert>
Ok, I'll check.
11:24
Ancient Epoptes version works normally after adding libnotify-dev to the image. Currently rebuilding full LTSP configuration from scratch with Epoptes from PPA to make sure all will go well in fresh class.
11:24
<alkisg>
Sure, the point of the newer version would be to solve more bugs that you haven't seen yet :)
11:28
<N0rbert>
I have another question. What is the recommended way to have multi-OS LTSP configuration? I mean single LTSP server with for example Debian and Ubuntu both images on it. Local boot in pxelinux.cfg is also needed. I found https://ltsp.org/guides/pxelinux/ with link to https://ltsp.org/guides/pxelinux.txt  . Is there any more comprehensive
11:28
documentation?
11:29
<alkisg>
N0rbert: well the newer ltsp automatically adds ipxe entries for all your images; if for some reason you want to stick to the older version, you're on you own :)
11:30
Since you're not using thin clients though, I don't see why you're still using the old one
11:32
<N0rbert>
I think it is a habbit and some laziness:)  Thanks.
11:33
<alkisg>
Sure, just compare it with the time you spend solving ancient bugs; when you get too lazy to deal with the bugs, you can consider upgrading :)
