| 17:16 | <yo23> Hello, I have ltsp with 22.04 but the thin clients are very very slow, what can I do?
| |
| 17:27 | <vsuojanen[m]> what manufacturer and models they are? And which comp/display manager they boot?
| |
| 17:34 | <Lantizia> alkisg, got the res eventually working :)
| |
| 17:34 | just in time too
| |
| 17:34 | thanks for looking the other day
| |
| 17:35 | <alkisg> 👍

| 18:16 | <Lantizia> alkisg, i don't suppose there is anyway (not for now... but maybe another day) to run ltsp in a way where if you install a package on the server, you don't need to remake an image for the clients to get it?
| |
| 18:16 | presumably this imaging takes *everything* except the home dirs ?
| |
| 18:17 | although it cant run it all in the client machins ram surely, so an image accessed over tftp/nfs ?
| |
| 18:18 | <alkisg> Lantizia: if you use a VM as an image, you can boot the clients with it without running ltsp image at all
| |
| 18:19 | <Lantizia> right but surely if I 'apt-get install openarena' in the VM... then the PC's still need rebooting to play the game :P
| |
| 18:19 | so same issue
| |
| 18:25 | <alkisg> Lantizia: well not the same issue exactly, because you won't need 10 minutes for ltsp image; but just a reboot
| |
| 18:26 | The only way to do it in a completely live manner would be to use ltsp remoteapps, i.e. like thin clients, where all the processes run on the server
| |
| 18:26 | Of course that will put a strain on the server :)
| |
| 18:29 | <Lantizia> well see we picked this r610 originally because we were running ltsp5 (on ubuntu 18.04... in fact we still can run this... by just picking another OS on boot up)
| |
| 18:29 | and assumed these 2012 compaq 315eu pc's wouldn't be up to much... so planned on them all being thin
| |
| 18:29 | but actually ltsp5 defaulted to thick (prob because they're not that bad) and so that is fine
| |
| 18:29 | and obviously the new ltsp doesn't do thin at all
| |
| 18:30 | but yeah that dell r610 was picked to be beeefy... i think it has 32 cores, 96gb ram etc...
| |
| 18:31 | but I'm thankful for them being thick... as (if it wasn't for trisquel) we can have things like hw accelerated games
| |
| 18:31 | i just assumed *more* of the servers filesystem was shared live via nfs
| |
| 18:31 | it seems much less actually is
| |
| 18:31 | <alkisg> ltsp remoteapps app => is the equivalent of thin clients, and is supported out of the box in the new ltsp
| |
| 18:32 | And if you declare mate-session or any other session as a remoteapp, you get the whole session in thin client mode
| |
| 18:36 | Only the squashfs image is served over nfs, as nfs is considered insecure, so it's only good for the read only and public part
