[Ltsp-discuss] Re: ethernet card detect

2005-10-22 Thread Guenther Boelter

Hi Michel,

are these cards 'onbord'?

If not, add these cards to an existing  Linux-machine, boot and wait for 
'kudzu',

the Linux hardware probing tool. Kudzu will tell you what it is.

[Ltsp-discuss] Qt-Coco: thin client technology from QT

2005-10-22 Thread Richard Bos
Just encountered this on the net, perhaps it can be of any use to ltsp?

Qt-COCO

named after coco channel who said one can never be too rich or too thin, the 
trolls have been working on a thin client framework. it works with any qt app 
and os combination. i saw it running in their palo alto offices and my jaw 
didn't just drop, it just about fell off. sam magnuson, who is working on 
this tech, showed me an app running in oslo simultaneously displaying locally 
on a linux and windows box. as he interacted with it on the windows machine, 
the instance on the linux machine followed along. no x, no vnc, no rdp ... 
just sweet smooth qt: the speed was terrific (think NX or citrix). and to top 
it off it allows for local (!) file browsing and printing (not to mention 
desktop resize events...). it's not finished yet (optimizations, auth and 
some additional features are left) but ... DAMN.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] ethernet card detect

2005-10-22 Thread techis1

hello,
thanks for the help, it works. Now i am installing ltsp with ubuntu. the 
new version of ron-o-matic can boot with the PXE file


Etherboot 5.4.1

PXE is now supported.  You will also need to configure your server to
provide a pxelinux.0 loader file, kernel and initrd images, and a
pxelinux.cfg directory with a appropriate configuration spec files.





Unfortunately 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=80408package_id=97496


use

Etherboot 5.4.0

when the client starts it tells me that i have a ee100pro card (this 
card is onboard), How can i find out the other parameter needed to make 
the correct ron-o-matic floppy (there is 30  eepro100 cards listed)


or it would be auch easier, exist this boot floppy with

Etherboot 5.4.1


or
in Readme it a description how to make a new floppy, may be i will try 
to do it (time problem) if you are inteested i can inform you

Michel,

We are using ThinkStation's universal boot floppy BootDisk522b.zip 
which has about 10 to 15 drivers on one floppy.  It autodetects the 
correct driver.  Then  it boots.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] ubuntu and ltsp

Marcin Kuk a écrit :


Try add

USE_NFS_SWAP = y
SWAPFILE_SIZE = 32m

or something like this to your lts.conf.

http://www.ltsp.org/documentation/ltsp-4.1/ltsp-4.1.3-en.html#AEN1201

Marcin Kuk

This is how you can control the size of the swapfile. The default is 64m.

hello,
may be i do not explain well, the installtion on teh server was ok, but
i coud not start the client, when the client has only 32 mb ram and tehe
client starts when i put 64 mb ram. I hope it is now more clear.

Joe Auerbach a écrit :

   


As far as I know the install won't fail due to ram.  Were there other
differences?  Was this the same system with more ram aded, or a
different system?  Both the same version of ubuntu and the same
command run?  I don't see how the problem you laid out happened unless
there was another difference.  The install shouldn't fail just because
it doesn't like your ram (as far as I know it can't tell how much ram
you have anyway).

i install ltsp with ubuntu (kubuntu 5.10). the installtion failed i
had 32 mb ram on the client , with 64 mb ram it works fine. I install
ltsp-1.4.1.1 with thin client with 32 mb ram and it works fine
(somewhere (i think in the in the ltsp docu) i read that the thin
client needs at least 32 mb ram. What are the minimal requirements
for install ltsp and thin client  wiht ubuntu, i don't find it.  It
would be usefull, because i lose 3 days testing...

  I don't know about best but I have deployed *lots* of Dell E173FP
